This tech we all use is advancing exponentially.
And we must be ready to embrace the dizzying changes in the next few years so that we can improve our lives and have better governments.

Who else to call out the atrocities of car culture than the underdogs who are most affected by it?
I have been both riding bicycles and driving huge trucks, not at the same time. And when driving was far less likely to be critical; I would think “this is bad”, and left it there. Five minutes later forgotten.
But when I rode bicycles these very things impacted me much more; I would stew in anger. Then , in that mindset I could more easily reflect on the absolute travesty: not just where I was but roads and metal things slicing up the landscape over continents.

Now that I have coded for two generations now, I often think I should have chosen some main occupation that was not a sit down job.
But it is what it is, and I will probably program more than anything else for the rest of my working life
Been coding for decades: burned out several times. I always return later after other jobs
I think the most job satisfaction I ever had was demolishing a house, another good thing for me was delivering pizzas.

As a consequence they played less power games while being very aggressive. Which is a winning strategy sometimes .
Llm could not replicate it, too much instructions
