 honestly we should be building cities in the most boring locations, not the
 most beautiful.
 
 like below the crust.
 
 or space.
 
 the surface is a pleasuredome, why waste it on scrubland and turf?

 what's that? a bunch of houses burnt down in california? what if we built a
 couple warehouses and stored all our trans girls in bunkbeds there, with rooms
 for LAN parties and snuggle parties in rooms full of stuffed buddies plushies
 with massive kitchens and sad ballpits where you can go to vent your feelings
 by writing on a ball with a sharpie and then when someone else is feeling sad
 they can come and read the balls and maybe feel something

 totally useless unless you're, I dunno, building a bytecode interpreter or
 something
 
 https://craftinginterpreters.com/contents.html
If you only have arithmetical expressions you can use some properties of arithmetic to compute branching computer code. E.G., if A is either zero or one depending on some previously computed condition, then A times B plus (1-A) times C computes the expression "if A then B else C"

 what if all the AI advancements they're doing are just them building more
 hardware infrastructure in datacenters and not actually improving the software
 that much
wouldn't that be neat I think it would because it means once they collapse under the weight of their own ambitions that hardware's gotta go somewhere and knowing them they're probably going to ship it to south-east asia to be "recycled" (read: burnt with the metals salvaged) instead of selling them second hand because you know they can't really justify the business expense of selling stuff like that and besides what if some driver or something on the firmware was proprietary do you really want to pay techs to wipe every single thing off of them and plus who's gonna categorize and sort them according to their form and function that's just extra payroll and listen the company's not doing so hot anyway I mean we're literally shutting down but yeah sure we'll find a way to justify spending all that non-existent dosh so some hippies can feel better with their servers they didn't build or justify with their profit-producing capitalist enterprise that we've built with our own two hands well really the hands of everyone else but like, they're not actually doing the building the REAL work of course happens in board rooms like this one where we spend MINUTES and HOURS sometimes discussing how to get things in order and aligned to both of our goals because that's the REAL work that has to happen in order for stuff to get done, you know it's true yeah I thought so anyway what are you doing after this meeting wanna get lunch it's almost quitting time at 2pm

 source code should be like a story
 
 "here's why we did what we did with our architecture"
 
 and as it's being written, it may be altered in many different places at once
 - git style.
 
 parts of it could rhyme,
 
 if they wanted to show parts that were really difficult but easy to summarize
 because it's mostly just a lot of boring work y'know like writing getters and
 setters and doing the testing pre-deploy environments
 
 ,,, they could selectionize
