Dad once said he wishes I wasn’t his son, that one of my childhood friends was instead. I told this to one of my friends and he said something I really appreciate. He said I’m the strongest person he knows because anyone else would’ve … let’s say taken drastic measures to escape abuse.

Wealth does not correspond with merit, that every country I’ve lived in will pretend they’re a meritocracy, but won’t be really.

Is there ever a good time for a “military solution”?

I have less to say about the tech side than I do about this whole forced mass adoption of LLMs and how I’ve seen people react to it doing things.

I agree that they’re unethically made by stealing data. That’s indisputable. What I fail to grasp is what the purpose of hating a technology is. Blame and responsibility are weird concepts. I’m not knowledgeable in philosophy or anything related to this. What I can tell, however, is that hating on the tech itself distracts people from blaming those actually responsible, the humans doing the enshittification. The billionaires, dictators…

(tangent) and I’d go as far as to say anyone who politically represents more people than they know personally is not the type of politician that should be allowed. Same if they have enough power to violence a lot of people. But this is just my inner anarchist speculating how an ethical society with limited hierarchy might work.
