I realise people don't care. I don't understand how they can so freely ignore that this has consequences and not always even long term ones. Given that I do recognise people won't change, would it help if I did learn to understand their builtin magic curtain / SEP field[0]? I ask with no hope any more, what do you advise?

It's like a runner that runs laps, if they can keep going they will. Sometimes they need support but then they only do a pit stop. Getting information or acquire a skill with that state of mind makes you only learn what seems essential to you. Being acceptant of that has the upside that you don't need to know the background of a given individual (some people have a rough life, others just don't think they will get it e.g. think they are not smart enough, others are just working 400% and have kids), to accept the fact that they will just use tech and maybe don't care about the inner workings. But is that really a bad thing? Because that's exactly how they are built know adays, ease of use. I have people around me that I want to explain basic things in life to, but.. even if they actually listen their previous argument float to the surface the next day. People need to change themselves. In the other end of the park there's a big playground. That's where I sit and design the biggest sand castle I've ever built. I don't care that much about running around, I switch playground when I have too. Each mindset have their pros and cons. I solve stuff that takes a bit of effort. My SO keeps our life/house running. So respect and acceptance about others choices is a great way to let go of anger that nobody is interested in the things you are interested in. Finding someone with the same mindset in real life is rare, even on HN. How cool is that?
