Hey, how are you?
I spent quite some time freaking out and being annoyed with everything.😱
…and I‘m a well-off, privileged person with a great job with freedoms my parents could only dream of! 🙄
So today, I want us to consider our space in this world, and what we can do to get things a bit on track again.😎
As it says in the book so many people put a lot of stake in right now: “the geek shall inherit the earth”
(I think…)🤓
Chapter 1: What the hell are we doing?😶
https://techcrunch.com/2017/02/07/goat-25m-accel/
Social media drama and endless discussions about how we can be much more effective.🐚
Lord of the flies reference, in case you wondered…
Burnout, bad social interaction, stress and unhealthy work environments…🔥
Insecure, hard to maintain, over architected and under documented solutions…🔓
Chapter 2: Things that already happened…⏳
The future is already here – it’s just not very evenly distributed.
— William Gibson
People are freaking out!

I do not fear computers. I fear the lack of them.
— Isaac Asimov

Chapter 3: Things that are going very wrong…😢
We’re all doomed. Again.
Technological progress has merely provided us with more efficient means for going backwards.
— Aldous Huxley
We’ve never been better connected and able to communicate easier.📡
And it seems to me we mostly use it to be horrible to each other or persuade people to do things they don’t want to do.📢
Instead of getting people more educated about technology, we tell them to trust in companies and believe that “everything works like magic”.

Dehumanised and misguided…
The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.
— Isaac Asimov
We need more transparency, information and informed people.🔓
There is no way we can have a secure and sensible human-computer symbiosis if there is no sense of ownership by humans.
💡
For years we used “free” systems that spied on us - heck, we even bought the devices that recorded our every move.

Of course, we’re too clever for that!!🐑

The question of whether computers can think is like the question of whether submarines can swim.

Aided adaptation…
“Any blue-collar coder will be plenty qualified to sling JavaScript for their local bank. That’s a solidly middle-class job…
“The national average salary for IT jobs is about $81,000 (more than double the national average for all jobs), and the field is set to expand by 12 percent from 2014 to 2024, faster than most other occupations.
The future of computing needs first and foremost people who are not afraid…
Our job right now is to create interfaces that are simple, human and fun to use…
Machines and code are there to help humans communicate better.
The more useful our “intelligent” solutions are, the easier it will be for people to stop fearing innovation…
🎙
We need to use our skills, knowledge and products to give people a sense of interaction and data ownership.

It is up to us to make this revolution one that improves all mankind, and not only makes some quick money and shows us more ads.
