anyone who is inspired to make something meaningful to them, that must unfortunately interact with the morass of structurally arbitrary technological decisions we're surrounded by, is going to be so weighed down by the torture of navigating it all that naturally whatever they originally wanted to make will quickly seem less pertinent than making ever-more-efficient wound-licking devices (or perhaps a special shoe that, with 95%+ accuracy, can detect a rake before it hits your face)

i think if you do a lot of stuff on the computer, programming specifically, everything is such a pain in the ass to do, not because the problems you're solving are naturally complex, but because of annoying artificial stuff like "configuring this toolchain takes an entire working week", that the cumulative effect on the soul makes your creativity atrophy, and your interests gradually turn inward, toward meta-concerns like programming language and tool design, rather than actually making anything

mind you it's not particularly snappy but it's not exactly an exercise in patience either

mypal 74, which uses the quantum engine, is frighteningly usable on 20+ year old hardware

Email is the best form of communication we ever invented. Instant, yet no instant reply is expected. Works universally outside of any app or ecosystem. The gold standard

have two middle names, have no mobile numbers, have no debt, have seventeen cats and five partners, be the one that can’t fit in a database because whoever designed the schema only had two brain cells and decided there’s only two genders

jsyk discord's compliance is client-side only, so if like me you have play store updates disabled your mobile app predates the compliance and you can view nsfw channels on mobile but not on desktop

i think a lot about the scene in halt and catch fire where to convince a mom who doesn't understand the high phone bills and why her kid spends so much time on the computer to sign back up for mutiny he explains to her that the bbs is to him like church is to them
