I'm surprised by how readily people shoehorn The Current Thing with Their Special Interest, lose perspective, then get subsumed by The Current Thing.
I'm in bitcoin for freedom tech. All the problems are too hard and I'm not getting any attention ... I'm in decentralized social networks for freedom tech ... I'm in AI for freedom tech.
I sometimes feel that people are "in bitcoin" because it's easy to get on stage, more than the actual freedomtech. The latter is a slogan, it's not a real thing anymore. "Freedom"tech that is so poorly executed that it exposes you more than not using it should be renamed go-straight-to-jail-do-not-pass-go-do-not-collect-200satstech, but that goes for a lot of stuff this year.
However, whenever I feel that sentiment I tell myself that it doesn't help to complain about it, so I figure I just have to do the work. But then, doing the work got really hard though. I have over 30 software modules / apps that are on the "urgently needs to be rewritten" list. Can vibe it for me, can't vibe it for anyone else, so doing it now will have zero impact on making things better for others.

I've learned that but still want to complain.
Maybe it's as it should be. Like, attention markets (as gross as they are) make real markets better. It's kind of Cantillion though; you can get attention by being close to the attention printer, and it's prone to manipulation/distortion.

That tracks.

I've always rejected that printer. It often gets offered. This is a poor choice though because isolation contributes to hard mode, a lot.
Do you know what makes you want hard mode?
