Honestly, people calling creators the "petite bourgeoisie" makes me want to snap.
We're working folk. And we work really hard. For next to nothing.
We're not lounging around eating bonbons. We're trying to figure out how we're going to be able to pay rent next month.

We‘ll have to agree on-
*mechanical calculator makes high-pitched chiming noises*
9999999999999999988.1 better forms of humanity.
(But also yeah. But I suspect we‘ll naturally diverge about the precise nature of such retrofits, much less neofits, once we get started on them.)

If you can‘t accept the natural abudance of human beings, you‘re not gonna like it once intentionality enters the picture, IMHO.
Disability rights and trans eights are a transhumanism litmus test. Most people fail it. Loudly.

Really, most of this sentiment derives from being tired of debating to what extent inequality is biologically inevitable - even if it were, that wouldn't be an excuse not to fix it.
I want to cut humanity apart with a scalpel and reassemble it in a more perfect form.

If patriarchy, inequality, and violence are inherent to human nature, then let's surgically alter human nature until they aren't.

As co-convener of Vote Leave, Michael Gove occupied a position of legal responsibility. The unlawful spending & campaign coordination happened on his watch. The denials - proven to be false - ditto. Vote Leave, ultimately, accepted the finding & paid the fine.
There were no other consequences.

The whistleblower of that public interest investigation, @shahmirsanni.bsky.social was viciously smeared by figures around Gove including those in government.
He lost his job. He was outed as gay.

(Also heh, I saw tante make a post just today about how every software project is actually a social project. Software engineers are woefully underequipped for that.)

Instead the "ideal" project finishes "understanding" the problem in a third of the time and the rest is software engineering.
Which leaves me with a worse and worse taste as time goes on.
