Chips are fried edibles ;)

There should be more friction added to car travel. More walkable neighborhoods with local business around the corner would pop up right where people are if the norm wasn't "everyone make endless individual trips to Walmart."

So stupid all the suburbanites blocking my driveway to come eat at nice restaurants because all they have out there is fast food; such a huge waste of resources

This is just going to devolve into more tribal elders pontificating to be possessed of knowledge the average person won't be able or allowed to falsify; the expert can clearly see how their interpretation is correct and it's disrespectful to challenge elders nonsense

Tao and such are merely biological beings serving biological imperative to survive. Educated as they are they are well aware social society expects them to engage in knowledge role-play to barter for food

The recursive non-fractal nature of reality where "function exits" when a human dies naturally fosters signal attenuation and the formation of new spoken traditions among the future generations

There is no propagating our social ways 100 years into the future. We can only propagate our material outputs. The semantics we define to describe something are lost to time.

The provenance to future people was past people; that's all that matters in the future not how we communicated together now

As someone who went into electrical and computer engineering in the 90s and was noodling with toy neural nets in the 90s; yeah agreed with the joke/clown knowledge job

Been saying to boos and rotten veggies "it's just electrical state in a machine; yall are deluding and debasing yourself for money." And "if you want to improve security stop using leaky abstractions to configure your machines".

Even better is that AI is replacing all knowledge work it just reinforces how absolutely bonkers the US "services economy" is and giving social stature to credentialed randos whose skills are whittled down to cooking frozen meals, grubhub, and Excel Sheet expert; unserious country peddling before the eyes of the poorest manual workers all these years that their degree in accounting earned them the right to wander through someone's home town across the world via resource intensive travel

Or better yet just being born rich earns them that!

This is an unserious country and social culture top to bottom to continue to assume modern people of nations rebuilt since Murica bombed them to the stone age don't see how Americans are drinking their own piss since the end of WW2; refusal to acknowledge externalities like generational churn (among all the others) makes it clear America is an unserious country.

HR and accounting and even a law degree do not make the individual worker bee irreplaceable themselves; whole lot of arrogant low skilled "knowledge workers", biological fuzzy VHS of often debunked pseudoscience studies now 30 years outdated... can pound sand.

Top to bottom American society is clowns.
