I spent some time working on the "Yes, we're fucking fucked" blog post yesterday, but it is all so terrible it ruined my entire evening. Still I think it will be useful to have all the terrors on one page. Will try to add a little bit of hope to the article, otherwise it needs to come with a health warning.
@bert_hubertbert hubert πΊπ¦πͺπΊπΊπ¦ That 's almost exactly the post I wanted to write but I rewrote it three times and changed its focus for very similar reasons. It put me in a bad mood and it took weeks to sit with it.
I ended up writing something else instead: https://tooinconsistent.com/writings/software-next/
It's a lot of work in the day to figure out not just how to resist what we see in tech, but also try to not destroy the rest of what we have on this planet.
I really appreciate your writing and often refer back to it, so despite the horrors please keep doing it!
