Those two problems are some of the largest we have at the moment. They screw everything up.
We should not optimize for a shitty existence.
I actually think making the problem worse is a good side-effect. The larger and more direct a problem is impacting us the greater impetus for fixing it.
- hackinthebochs 2y agoThe casualness some people talk about putting large segments of society's lives and livelihoods on the brink never ceases to amaze me.

- hackinthebochs 2y agoAbsolutely. We're incapable of the foresight and coordination needed to stave off these disasters. It doesn't help that "progress" has become the idol of our secular religion. Slowing down or stopping is just sacrilegious to modernity.
