If the world sentences you to isolated confinement with hard labor- is it unreasonable to torch such a world to the ground, hoping for better things in the ruins? PS: Please don't downvote, just because the idea of your lifes invisible

They want the rule of law to end, the end of responsibility - and they dont want to understand, that the result is a decaying oligarchy similar to russia. Its the ideological equivalent to having your cake and eating it.

It may be pre-conceptions, but after a while you know where to look. Its "imperial"-entitled cultures that produce the most hefty cheaters. "I belong to the cultural, god-chosen center of the universe therefore i excel"

Eastern europe has software nailed down. Poland, chechoslvovakia, the baltics- they are naturals in this.

Western europe- eastern europe is not afflicted by this particular malaise. How about we talk openly about it- there is a limited number of perfectly good heads- and fabrication industries and service industries are in systemic competition

What if you imagine it wrong, and the past has been actually filled with high-trust useful idiots in the silent majority, thinking god watches them and they can leave the door and car unlocked, cause god also watches the village? What if yo

The lead poisoning of our time, companies getting high on hype-tech, killed off because the "freedom from programmers- no code tools" create gordion project nods. And all because the MBAs yearn for freedom from dependencies and th

No, there are immigrants who want to dwell in high trust societies and contribute to that. Who are welcome! If you want this and want to participate in it - you are a enrichment to the world and the society you want to partake. But if you p

They are also milked by companies, who re-designate pre-existing works (like software projects) as "innovation" and R&D. Its basically a hidden tax-refund with loads of busy-work bureaucracy.

Word of mouth annotated by chains of trust. If somebody is unknown, unless somebody else vouches for him - he is silenced, his links invisible. Vouching is somebody else giving him trust- and disappearing, if that was unearned. Your grandp

It were okay, but the problem is- the industries that exploit the young and naive - actively pull out tentacles to draw in more of the young and naive. Thats what all the hollywood "how to become a star" and "talentshows&quot

Sounds alot like Alastair Reynolds Yellowstone series, although he has a more classic, alive characters bumping into and becoming part of the future history. I agree though, its a fantastic medium.

Its a filter for bad negotiators. Throw 1.5h commute on top of 9-10h work and you filter for people who have no sense of self-preservation and thus will also suck at negotiation. 3 years in burnout, rinse and repeat. Game-development alread
