  • Bad take.

    Code is about working with a limited set of tools and making them work for whatever task is in front of you.

    Inspiration is from interacting with something and receiving insight.

    The best coders meld the two and push the industry forward. If you impose self limitations like this on yourself, then you’ll never advance yourself.

    This is like saying you read lord of the rings and now can’t play DND because the fantasy source material was ‘stolen’.














  • This is a bit of a learning experience though.

    The big tech companies advocated during 2020 that they were not biased and should not be held responsible for policing the Internet.

    Since then, FB swapped to Meta to cover up the documents showing FB is intentionally causing psychological damage our children because it gives them more clicks/view time.

    OpenAI scraped the Internet, legally and illegally to power ChatGPT.

    Twitter, a social media company known for free speech, was bought by Musk, a former Trump associate. Trump was reinstated during this period and dissent was banned.

    Google decided to push web DRM to force us to use their software or else we can’t access the Internet.

    Sounds like they very much want to police the Internet. We just aren’t putting the pieces together in a collective way.
