Nope, that will happen, but it also doesn't mean you're fucked . It just means it's time to move up the value stack. The fear that lead to the black and white thinking expressed in your comment is the real issue.

The reason is that the underlying technology evolves, and software itself goes through cycles of innovation. Software stays just flexible enough to adapt to the changes and absorb the innovations. It finds this balance "by itself"

I should add, a very specific thing about the Bay Area that had an outsized contribution to my life was the group house culture. There are hundreds (or thousands?) of micro-communities sharing dwellings in the Bay in a way that's unlik

While I have no doubt that this is a liberating practice for you, for anyone else reading, you can also actually become a real shaman in pretty much any shamanic tradition, and I know many people who who have done that. This is, in fact, an

I’ve seen the numbers, but honestly it’s pretty wild for me to read this thread. Many people’s stories paint a picture in my mind of lives that feel devoid of richness, almost like watching an advertisement or a sitcom. Sadly, I come across

There's a conversation on YouTube between Mike Johnson (whose theory is the subject of the article) and Michael Levin. Levin's work has been a huge inspiration ... for everyone working between biology, psychology, and spirituality

It's always the same: workers need to unionize and form a political power bloc. Then, those most impacted—the majority—have an array of options, which are well explored in the annals of leftist and socialist political theory. This is n

For me, the biggest tell was how frequently older people report feeling completely at peace and ready to die. As my own life progressed, the feeling of novelty became harder to find, and then less important. Grief became easier, death becam

I'm quite disappointed by the discourse in this thread. We can build privacy-preserving identity. It's a huge opportunity. Go work on it! If you're in the Bay, there's a conference on it every year where the people build

This is the most maddening topic I've experienced in recent times. My guess is it's the ghost of ww2. Anything that looks or smells like a definitive reduction of a human being to numbers is to be opposed, regardless of utility. W

I don't know your relationship with the former person, but as for drawing general conclusions, I—as a reader of your comment—can't assume that you have assessed accurately whether their case is better. You might not be aware of su

I think what people miss about bloat, and about what's changed with software over the years, is that a vast variety of niche use-cases are now supported. Software runs on dozens of different systems, every aspect is customizable and pr
