I know what you're saying but I think we may have lost the plot here.

The original link was about finding meaning after all, right?

Sure but that doesn't mean the two ideas are incompatible.

In fact the act of making copies of our DNA might be a great example of playful work. Sex is fun and it has the capacity to spread our genes.

Honestly why not both? The length of these things only can be an issue when it comes to parking lots.

> If issues are much more frequent than with human responders, the system will obviously not be deployed.

Part of the issue is that they're using metrics from a poorly supported system as comparison. If they funded the emergency service optimally then these comparisons would make sense.

I think there was a sweet spot right before major social media adoption where lines were more clearly drawn. By that I mean you could find information if you needed/wanted to but you were constantly bombarded with it in tones that spoke it with 100% confidence with the sole purpose of getting you to click on something.

The comment you're responding to refers to India as their country.

I'm assuming they've witnessed the changes first hand in that case.

> That's how backwards this whole "cancel culture" outrage is. Better to call it accountability culture, or response culture, or feedback culture.

Nah.

The issue with cancel culture is that those doing the canceling don't necessarily represent a majority of people. In fact, what they represent by necessity is a group of people who have the time on their hands to respond in force. Further, the main emotion driving cancel culture is outrage, an emotion carefully cultivated by media outlets because it's a great way to make money.

Those ingredients combined don't create "accountability", they create a mob. If you need to be convinced that mobs are a bad thing, look up Emmett Till.

>Boomers?

Every generation has its issues. Don't fall into the trap of thinking yours (ours) doesn't.
