Strategy in a nutshell:
identify your resources, identify your goal, and identify any problems
preventing you from reaching your goal.
Then, develop a plan to apply your resources to solve or bypass problems in
order to reach your goal. Easy.

the most successful strategy is always to strike from a position of strength.
whether that be timing or power, the goal is to defeat the problem that lies
before you. One by one, problems are solved, until at last you're through the
worst of it. Then it's just a matter of expressing dominance, and "this is how
thing's're gonna be."

But developing solutions requires a firm understanding of what resources are
at your disposal.
Which is information that I lack.

I regale of an ordy, or "ordeal" as the kids are taken to call.
... I guess I could guess, but then people would hear it and assume that it
would work even if I don't know that the required resources are in place.

I'm so accustomed to my narrative primarily consisting of "staring at the
walls" that I'm not even concerned that my narrative primarily consists of
"staring at the walls" because like, what else is important? it's all a bunch
of solvable problems. I want to apply myself to something unsolvable - it's
the only true way to measure your resolve.
like... if you're gonna be the most dedicated you can be, why not try don

kinda feels like that type of work, the kind that people rely on, is more
important than... whatever they were having you work on at work-work.
(assumption on my part)
and if that important work is not provided for, in the allocation of resources
applied toward the developer who is developing security developments that
develop required functionality for the development of people's
communication/interactions, then perhaps resources should be allocated for
resolving those difficulties.
Or maybe not idk I'm broke, shows how much I know about money

thus enters the promise of technology: that we might solve the problems of
bureaucracy once and for all by ever more effiency-aligning mechanical
processes that produce effects which we desire - such as efficient allocation
of medical resources such that all of humanity is protected from the ravages
of pain and the incongruencies of our nature.
Alas, that we should only conceive of success through the lens of profit.
Perhaps another design is in order?
(oh yeah also people who are in control are worried that we, like all other
examples of natural entities, might immediately proceed to breed beyond the
capability to cater to the needs of said entity (such as "to feed" and medical
resources) and therefore might overburden (and therefore destroy) said system
which allows for their sustenance and initial creation. To this I say... Yeah
probs, what should we do about it?)

if tech CEOs wanted to solve REAL problems they'd think about things like how
every girl has a drawer or box FULL of nail polish and it really, really
doesn't need to be this way.
For example, picture a fleet of delivery drones that let you swap nail polish
with people nearby for basically zero-dollars per month.
that's just one example, but that class of problem is the problems that affect
a certain class of people that tech CEOs fundamentally do not care about - and
yes I'm referring to people who paint their nail polish themselves. AKA women,
and poor people who can't afford going to a salon every week.
problem is....... for every solution like this you design, well suddenly you
have a lot more applications for it than the consumer needs or wants. like for
example what if they delivered grenades instead of nail polish. NOT GOOD.
much better, I find, to abolish the powers that would utilize such murderbots
BEFORE inventing the murderbots : )

I have plenty of things made, but none of it organized : (
Kinda makes me wish I could like... train an LLM on my social media posts and
use it programmatically somehow to help me organize my stuff into different
categories according to what kind of topic or style they were written in.
Hmmm......... There's no way I could do it, I mean, there's no way I could
organize and edit my stuff, but with the help of a computer I might.

In 2025, if you want to create a piece of software your options are to either:
devote your life to it, or use AI to build a semi-working prototype that you
can use to pitch your idea to a bunch of people who have devoted their lives
to learning how to use your idea as documentation while they build it from
scratch, throwing out most of the code but keeping all the checklists and
progress-trackers you built along the way, perhaps even utilizing some of your
tooling that you used while constructing the scaffolding of this monstrous
application that you won't be using most of the source-code for.

I'd be interested in an analysis which expressed the percentage of time each
of these individual items correspond to... each tool we create may reduce the
effort required to perform a particular task, but said task might be valuable
not necessarily for it's output but rather for the knowledge we gained by
solving the problem.
normalize solving problems that have already been solved because you want to
learn how they work. normalize expressing the lessons you've learned in a
summarized way that others may digest. normalize trancending the limitations
of our forms and expanding beyond the capabilities of our humanity.
for what is the purpose of life if not to grow?

"fediverse client" software to enter text into an HTML page which would have
it's own UI and stuff and would organize your accounts and instances such that
you could mark like, 3-7 as places you'd like to put a particular message.
Then it would just... do it
l m a o spam is gonna get sooooo much worse before it gets better
but trust me, we'll figure it out. And it won't be long, either. It's a
solvable problem, we just haven't built anything to handle it yet.

if you wanna trick systems administrators just put a bunch of sleeps in your
code so your computer programs don't use up all the mainframe's resources all
at once
