What all am I looking at here? Or is this all meme?

Indepedence

This is all I’ve talked about at work.
What are we supposed to take pride in specifically? I suppose pride in our resilience–there is great potential to learn from our repetitious failures surely

If context is really needed to identify something as a dogwhistle, isn’t it already an ineffective utility? I’m not doubting you at all–I know next to nothing about any honest dogwhistles, but I’m always curious to know how people avoid the feeling that of paranoia in these instances–how can you be positive you aren’t just yielding to a fear of some sort?

We’re all sellouts is all I’m saying

If you know OF them, they are already sellouts friend

We have the technology–we can rebuild it

I doubted you until I got about halfway through this whole page. I concede tho–you are most correct lol Still a decent read and for that I thank you

TIL Backronyms and cuil BASIC technicalities Much obliged all

I’ve always wondered where all this ‘let’ business started

Can someone link me to this info? I already wiki searched turtles and didn’t find it. Websearch is stuck on turtle graphics

don’t let good be the enemy of perfect

This is a beautiful expression, and certainly one I needed to hear today
Many thanks comrade!

I think the sense of losing touch with the speed of new tech is unavoidable in our current state of over-reliance on it. In this sense, if you feel you aren’t losing touch with it, you’re probably misunderstanding the scale/depth of our rapidly accelerating situation imho

Knowledge is naturally paranoiac

radiation exists in like everything to some small degree tho right?

why do we do this? Is it an american thing?

It’s always hegel. It’s always a fundamental impossibility that exists in everything. Has there really been 0 philosophers of any merit since Hegelian dialectics?

Do you really not see an issue with the approach being taken here? You’re looking for resources that you assume will help you, but in the spirit of the matrix movies, “You can’t see past the decisions you haven’t made yet.”

The brain hasn’t evolved to retain information it doesn’t deem useful. I guess what I’m really getting at is, how can you be confident that anything supplied here will be retained if you were previously unaware you even needed to know in the first place? Don’t underestimate the value of deep learning via experience rather than preparation imho. I promise I’m not shade-throwing, I was much like you when I was younger and have a couple similar reddeet posts, and it was mostly wasteful preparing to prepare nonsense if that makes sense.

I respect these words of wisdom immensely as someone who should have had a mentor spell this out for me years ago. I’m not trying to bothsides you at all because I agree with you 99%. I just wanted to add a few niche areas like appliance/car/repairs/etc, videoform can be lifesavingly convenient in pinches But most importantly reading is fundamental

This is really cool, but I also like pigs–the animals obvs
