Agree. It is a serious problem when actual stuff in the world is based on shitty hell software- when the only way to do the stuff in the world is to enter into the shitty hell software world. Then it is exactly living in hell.
- nine_zeros 3y agoSoftware is being built to line pockets, often scummily. Even Google search page is complete scum. So many ads. Software greed has made life hell.

- the_snooze 3y agoThis is the "tech startup" playbook of not really caring about building good useful tech that solves real problems. It's all about rent-seeking.
- bmitc 3y agoThese days, everything actual is already based on software. It is miserable. It's nearly impossible to talk to humans these days. Even talking to someone at a hospital or doctor's office is nigh impossible at times. I have also noticed an increase in the automated phone systems and even human representatives just flat out hanging up or ending chats on me, when it is they who are having the problems. But I just get a condescending "call us back when you have the required information". I especially hate when the automated system says "it looks like we're having a problem". No, I'm not having any problem. It's you having the problem.
