It is so sad how inaccessible the better parts of the world are. I feel so sad that so few have access to anything genuine. The opportunities dwindle & I feel terrible for that- I want an electrified humanity, with vast potential everywhere. With few exceptions it feels like this world is falling so far away from empowered stances, and it's so sad, and so little of tech tries to rectify & enhance humanity's greater potential.
Reciprocally- and this isnt necessarily better- I look at how squandered this interesting field is. It's so fortunate & gifted a field, to have exposure to so much, to be so uniquely empowered & entrusted. Yet I see so much partial pursuit, so much partial interest, so much moderated enthusiasm. The really good people in this field have so little support, so few who can help them or who work at their level. I don't begrudge anyone their existence here but to see the tip of the spear, the vanguard of humanity so dulled & un-trying is sad. I see such limited futures everywhere, but to see such limited uniterested unengauged potential so close to a heart of power & potential is truly dismaying. Who if not the techies can inspire us, reawaken our potentail? I feel as uncomfortable with my professional class as I do with anyone else: they at least have potential. And yet that just makes me feel further apart from them than the every-person, who has such limited chances to find an enabling empowering path.
