I'm tired of pretending tech makes things better.  I'm tired of kidding myself that all these apps, these chatbots, these "tools" are doing anything but dragging us into the mud and the shit and calling it progress.  I sat down at a cafe a few days ago, hungry and ready

    I prefer the saying “technology is a tool and a tool can be used for good or evil” or something like that

    You can use a hammer to hammer nails or to injure someone

    Technology can make the world better if its in the right hands for example open source hardware & software

      Agreed, but things act differently at scale and it’s not like there’s 10 billion+ hammers being used at the same time, almost all of the time, for years on end
