I've been burned before, in my youth, which perhaps is a privilege that those who come beyond us might never experience in the future AI generated internet that shall scarcely resemble the wild wild west that I grew up in. Perhaps, but I cannot say for sure, as the future has necessarily not yet come to pass, and so we cannot see how it shall unfold. I hope people can learn the digital literacy skills I developed. I hope they learn new ones that they'll then pass on to me. I hope the future is grand and beautiful and... Frankly I don't think I'll be disappointed in that particular respect. : ) ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════────────────────────────────┴───────────┘ --- #6 fediverse/1143 --- ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── ah, but my dear... your "wisdom" has side effects. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ --- #7 messages/738 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────── Dear Anakin, for as long as you've known him, Obiwan learned just as much from you as you did from him. His title as "master" was a formality - he didn't get it because he was better than you, and "padawan" does not mean you are lesser. There is no hierarchy. He was learning to teach at the same speed that you learnt to learn. You built each other up, an unstoppable force for good in the galaxy. But then an evil wizard stole your heart and twisted your mind. Have no fear, fear is the path to the dark side. Your mother knows this well, for it is a common lesson among all people as they age. Fear not, hate not, and feel fury more than rage. You can bring the universe into a bright golden age, never forget your purpose and your [potential / duty] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────┴───────────┘ |
