Seeing stones aka cell phones collected mankind's communication and behavioral data. This allows to "hack" the behavior of the species, manipulate groups into infighting and thus divide and conquer. It also provides a api to manipulate fearfull of the future politicians, company ceos and shareholders by offering advise.
Its even got its own philosophical movement for the spiders in the center of the web. With a lack of social control over distributed tech artifacts as great filter and thus infinite justification for all these emergency atrocities already in effect or yet to come.
Science goes were the data goes. Neurosciences were privatized.

I found the army to be a very good example to explain abstraction layers. It's intuitive, that a general should not know about the flawed boot of a soldier. It's also intuitive why the rarer it is used every day the more it is factored out into specialized services.
the procedural nature of beginner programs is like a obsessive drill seargant.
Its even nice for a start into parallelism.

*I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said—“Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. . . . Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.”
This valley dwellers will be there long after the ruins you created swallowed all you touch.

Re:An Introduction to Data Oriented Design with Rust
on Thursday September 17, 2020 @07:23PM (#24511176)
Dod taken to its extremes, is to give up on alot of other concepts like avoiding data duplicates. Usually you build a oop prototype to identify the hot loop and then build datastructures optimized for this process. Imagine it like a chemical plant that no longer receives one type per train or wagon, but instead processor batch sized pre mixed ingredients on wagons, that might even be reused as storage and staging for the refinery traveling overhead. A classic oop objects attributes might be distributed over several of such data wagons and the problem here is synchronization and updating. So what if your Algo processed it fast but is bow stuck waiting for another to sync its data back to arrays of optimal accessstructs.

Cpaps are way more useful as ventilators. If yo are on the vent with covid19 you are as good as done. The problem is one of supply chains.. They are withering and dieing atm. If you don't keep them alive at all cost, the ecosystem around your company is gone once you reopen.
Its even worser In Europe due to car complexity..

Software developer holds the software ecosystem hostage, trying to extract the maximum amount of value.

Demanding a revolution far away from danger at the top of your voice while with your voting feet trampling these futures of choice?
