I’d consider human spiritual realms the precursor to meta verses we can actually implement. Tons of visualization through art, and ways and means defined through story. Of course tend to need to be very literal about these things. Frankly a

I’m fine with people rotating on and re-training We do it through college then stop. Think of it like term limits. How much of this is really actually technical work and just data entry, sexed up for cashiers that got older? Isn’t this what

This could be made into a problem for corporations too. Stop going to work. Switch to open source projects. Let social media crash. K8s clusters with Kilo hosted on laptops, desktops. We have the tools to blackout the web and bring a whole

I’d like to see a UI that abstracts Wireguard behind contact management UX If I’m connecting to someone via that app it’s over a Wireguard tunnel. On desktop, let me drag files over, append to a synced message thread (stored in SQLite or so

Older companies tend to be run by pre-internet leadership, with deep and wide political connections and awareness. They tend to do better with PR slight of hand. Maybe because they get it’s all a political boondoggle and SV companies are ru

This isn’t so shocking as history alone makes it clear society operates on aristocrats legalizing externalizing effort. They own everything and role play as if making investment choices is work but… they own everything so the monopoly outco

Websites can and many do gather various types of location data to have an idea you’ve moved around. Don’t try to equivocate this away. The technology to enable it is software; software is everywhere. We can use WiFi to echo locate people in

To what end though? Ownership aside isn’t big tech something of an expert workers council? If there’s literal logistics value to these systems we’ll build them anyway. Political labels like cartel help politicians sell us on big ownership.
