Criminalizing proprietary software.
What alternative would you propose? FOSS is barely getting any donations / sponsors - So how are developers supposed to make a living?
Move to VR and infinite screen space. We’re so close. No doubt once Apple joins the fray it’ll be time
What do you mean by “infinite screen space”. In VR?
Have you worked in VR before? I feel like we will require different modes of input. A VR keyboard doesn’t seem very enticing.
Developers should go back writing efficient code in lower level programming languages to stop wasting CPU cycles for stupid reasons, like not wanting to use types, or something more stupid than that.
I agree but at the same time cannot be bothered to go lower level than Python for my personal projects. It’s so damn convenient.
For personal projects and prototypes i believe it’s fine, but when you consume the electricity of mid-size countries just because you prefer to write your production code in convenient languages don’t lecture others about ecology and climate change (i am not refering to you).
Less consumerism, more focus on real social aspects:
- Macro: robust (decentralized) political system, that’s not easily corruptible, e.g. via something like blockchain
- Micro: more focus on direct interaction with other people, not via something like a screen, as another post here already said, we’re harming ourselves (promote psychiatric issues etc.) with the current state of technology (smartphone overuse). We have gone much less social (direct interaction with others) because of this I’m sure of.
less sexism
