twttr/x is now a cesspool of concentrated human fuckery.

We are in violent agreement. Those are the details to this timeline. I'm only adding, in any timeline it would be difficult if not impossible to stop capitalism from happening sooner or later.

Yes, but it also allows for scale. It's an outgrowth of a free market which is as human as language. Unless there's some form of economic oppression you probably always end up with something that looks like capitalism unfortunately.

Being messy in the repo. Writing use once tests. Touching things unrelated to the prompt. Being terrible at anything systems.

I hear need for control in these statements.

Protection? Protection from violence?

What would this new social contract have in it?

We have one of those that is relatively good looking back over history.

That's a major weakness of democracy, yes. Alternatives?

Artificial mediators and unwholesome incentives.

I want badly to nod in agreement, but I can't help but hear so many of these meandering thoughts as cries for certainty. Nothing is certain, and in the face of that apparently people seek control as comfort. Do you best and deal with the shit as it comes.

I've been wondering the same thing. They're pricing structure and limits are an interesting strategy.
