certainly not. but we are at the beginning of a cultural shift in line with the renaissance and the age of enlightnement which vastly changed the cultural mindset quite a bit. before these previous 'cultural revolutions' what people considered rational was different.
- bilbo0s 7y agoI think we agree that we are in the middle of a cultural shift, but I don't think it's going where you think it is. It's exactly this cultural shift that I'm worried about. What exactly does crowdsourced school security look like in an environment of radically open data? I just think you're being very optimistic.
- naringas 7y agono one can tell where will end up. regardless, I don't think it's optimism because I don't think I will leave long enough to see such a world, at best we will leave through the roughest part of the shift. this level of cultural transformation takes more tha a few of generations. in any case, I see something else regarding the way in which individual humans are aware of the relationship to their supporting society which translates up to the way in which a distinct society sees itself as a component of a larger system. where do you think this is going?
