What? 5% to 6%? That’s great and all but it’s hardly moving the needle.

It’s huge because the people who do the tech support in the families are moving.

It gives them the opportunity to create their own tools.

People bake and learn basic chemistry. The baseline of general programming knowledge could be more than zero. It’s a fundamental part of our society.

Explicit programmers are needed because the general public has failed to learn programming. Hiding the complexity behind nice interfaces makes it actually more difficult to understand programming.

This comes all from programmers using programs to abstract programming away.

What if the 2030s change the approach and use AI to teach everybody how to program?

An Uber.

How could this pass without a huge public outcry? All the developers in California, have they said nothing because they could be fired?

Suspiciously fast action for a state that doesn’t build wind farms as quickly.

I would even say that right-wing people have almost the same moral values as left-wing people, just not for the out-groups. So within the crew, there is no big difference.

Hospitality for strangers is also part of conservative’s values, so in passing contact, aliens are treated alike.

As a mental exercise I like to perceive Star Trek as a racist propaganda show.

Star Trek can be seen as the way, a fascist empire wants to be perceived. The whites are in control but benevolent. Minority groups have their token share of roles but they never threaten the control of the whites.

The visible people are mostly white and never have a brown, black and Asian percentage that could be expected from a united earth.

The organisation is hierarchical. A militarized society would be the solution to overcome all conflicts.

It is clear that the casting was needed to gain market share in the US but that also means that the show can trigger nostalgica in those who want to continue those proportions.

Google took over the browser market. Who took over the drug market?

Have you tried coffee?

That makes sense.

But why? How is that useful for users? Why not make the switch when the hardware exists?

Why? The article doesn’t really help.

Doesn’t that distract him from figuring out what he really wants?

Tear out all available wood and build a rescue raft while you can, your ship is going to sink. Collect all available water and fishing equipment to bring with you.

For this world, contact other disabled people and friends and build a company. If you own the company you can’t be fired.

Take an instance that federates with almost everybody and “all” will show you everything available.
