do we have to be burdened by western existential narratives vis a vis Orwellianism that don’t scale? seemingly, yes! society seemingly doesn’t scale gracefully … though China looks better-adapted to present reality

ah, and the challenges to scale once again hit the wall … they’ll have to use AI to police maintainers to keep them from using AI 😂


I got a business degree in Dallas and worked as a Systems Engineer in San Francisco for 14 years. I neither expect the farmer nor the nerd to understand macroeconomics.


I’d tell the farmer that it’s absurd to think you can operate in the modern economy without modern tools.


ok, I respect your thought. It very much sounds like the farmer arguing that crops were harvested for thousands of years without tractors to me.


It’s already an absurd thought to believe an operating system can be developed sans this new technology given today’s reality. Enjoy the memes, I hope they make the change easier.


good riddance. concentrate on bettering the os, not fighting ghosts
I’m over twenty years deep. I had a friend who was always my go-to for technical problems with my windows laptop. He ended up becoming a technical support guy for windows shops. anyways, he mentioned Linux one day as I was babbling about file sharing during the Napster days. I went down the rabbit hole from there. I’ve been called a systems administrator, server administrator, systems engineer, DevOps engineer, etc as job titles. it clicked in my head how or why it worked and it felt liberating. I’m the grumpy guy scowling trying to figure out how your windows or Mac operating systems work like how normal people are trying to figure out how mine works.
happy to be your hell, good citizen ☺️ I wish you the best
