  • Bad take.

    Code is about working with a limited set of tools and making them work for whatever task is in front of you.

    Inspiration is from interacting with something and receiving insight.

    The best coders meld the two and push the industry forward. If you impose self limitations like this on yourself, then you’ll never advance yourself.

    This is like saying you read lord of the rings and now can’t play DND because the fantasy source material was ‘stolen’.







  • Education isn’t the problem. It’s self control. People think they prioritize rational decisions but if that were true, cigarettes would be long gone and global warming would be solved. We prioritize feelings which is why GOP loves to fear monger and push religion. Nothing scarier than a eternal suffering, especially since eternity lasts a long time.

    In this case, we have two countries that have held a religious divide for decades based on who believes they’re actually worshipping the correct people so they don’t get sent to eternal suffering. Except, they’re willing to kill for their religious text because they feel so deeply that theirs is superior.

    How can we as outsiders possibly take the right actions when the irrational people are willing to commit genocide over their feelings brains?
