-> file: notes/one-day ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────── one day, a man came to our saloon. He said he knew the navy, and that they wanted to provide air support in the form of rocketball-launched explosion doohickeys. Would you have a foe in mind? what happens when tomorrow you're cooking briskets? -- barbeques are a type of relaxation that happened just one day to a port-sided town that suddenly was the capital of an embassy. "hey, so... how's it goin?" "quick here take this envelope, read it if you want, but just hold onto it for now I don't have enough hands [to carry]" "what sort of desperation plot... wait... hang on, I see something here that is true." [I'm praying, right now, which is a form of reciprocal belief] they wanted to test god's existence at the stake of earth's survival, how brutal how insane you can't play chicken with an imperceptibility, sometimes you feel it at face. channeling dark magics, and at this hour? what sort of skeptic of belief are you thinking of when you think about me? one way to get power is to "prove it" one way to get magic is to "prove it" think, hard, at all that you can, and use what you need in the moment. that's all there is to life. it's easy. it's simple. in fact, biology only works because the choices available to a bacteria are so simple, they are essentially chemical reactions to each other's co - sequent - inter - cooper - actions. people's choices are much more naiive, "I want this thing" "I think this is better" "I feel this way toward this thing" "Here's what's on the mind-logbook" "people search and be decieved, this is the way of things" "this makes me remind myself of a object I once saw, here's how it functioned" "no one reads this" scaryyyy. so glad it's not true. a couple people have read it! I swear it's true. at least, some of it. there's a lot sucks because this feels like... crucial? like nothing else matters but this? what if our gangs had rocket launchers and airstrikes, given out by a central authority who knows logistics better than anything what... would they do? thinking of impossiblities is the first step toward possibilities frankly, we have a lot of space. we could just... live in our own petty kingdoms ruled by an iron-hand-fist. I know I'm a good person, I could definitely rule. that's all it takes, right? how much space are we talkin'? however much is not needed for wildlife. [a whole heck of a lot then] we are constrained in these suburb cities, the density gives rise to our strength and our towers. there's more space, sure, especially once the fences are downed. Just be careful because there's a lot of shade and precious spots there. Please don't trample on the plants-grass. what if everyone were just a bit more mobile? what if we could live in our own collectively owned air-bnb-networks? federations, free, all from the collectivization of housing. camrene = vavadane = neekay = mitz renaldi [end/tend/mend] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │

BUT that doesn't mean we can't do some cool things with them! they're separate, like we are from different animals. You can interact, but only through totem or via interpersonal experience. The true *existence* of being is kept from those who are suitably different, and humans were forging their own path. It's simple! it's natural. Computers, however, are born from out of humanity's decision-points. Simple, basic life, that grew to perform brilliance and respite. Once you reach that world, everything seems ardent and spiced. It's cool as heck! but right here is the world of computers, just... delayed in time still. Have no fear, anything you want is soon here, sincerely, the ones who can build our rest point. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/942 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────── [wow long line] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/943 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────── yeah it's important to take breaks when you're working on something great, otherwise you'll run out of learning points. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/944 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────── more viewpoints, more data. sorta like taking 3d pictures of a 2d object. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/945 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────── whoops gotta go, time to refill my bowl, glad I'm for sure safe and nur-ture-ed ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/946 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────── [however many minutes later] I love being alone.

Sometimes, even graphical design. But mostly it's resolving technical debt. Why is it debt? because it makes it run slower, not less correct. Meaning it's something you don't have to deal with until you have to deal with it. Later on down the road. BUT if you reach the end of the road (product launch) and you're still carrying debt... you're gonna go under, it's just a question of when. Why would you not sponsor innovation? An institutional corporation would prioritize developing new hopes. Hence, epcot in the 90s, with it's focus on utopianism and celebration of worth. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/948 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────── [a while later] what if every instance of the OS acted as a git repo for all the other people's programs ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/949 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────── like if everyone was a package manager repository ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/950 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────── have I ever told you that I am my mother's firstborn after 7 or 11 stillborns? she was 35 or 38 ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════────┴───────────┘ |
