<p>no, it's not. but even if you disagree...<p>without the context of your disability or disorder, if you confidently spout nonsense, then from an outside perspective, you are the problem. externally, i have no knowledge into your disabilities or disorders, or even if you're lying for sympathy (to be clear, i do not think you are lying). however, i will not accept you making it my problem that, when you confidently spout nonsense and lies, you were corrected<p>maybe, in the future, you will be less willing to publicly make statements confidently chastising people and products for things they are not doing<p>feel free to have the last word, but i don't see any value to continuing this conversation</p>

<p>We are referring to people in the context of "going into quantitative finance, vibecoding sports-betting apps, consuming AI-generated TikTok shorts, and arguing with political bots on Twitter.".<p>Those are hardly the "most people in the world are working around the clock to supply food and shelter for their family"<p>It's a bit unclear still how you are going to consolidate the two facts.</p>

<p>> Get off the beaten path<p>I would really push back on this<p>What you're describing _is_ the beaten path. People who argue with bots on twitter are actually, vastly, the minority.<p>Go to your local park or bar and have a drink and try not to talk about the internet.</p>

<p>> The urban lifestyle is also to blame when it demands a lot of time for work and commute,<p>ironically, urban commutes are substantially shorter on average<p>> leaving the individual with little time for self improvement and free time. It deteriorates the third place by not allowing time to dedicate to it.<p>what? there's so many urban third places.</p>

<p>> Atomic family from 50s with their suburb is literally the utopia for American and whatnot family<p>Where did that "utopia" ideal come from?<p>> Good luck having that in New York rat cages<p>Yeah, that isn't good either. That's poverty. Do you think poverty doesn't exist in the suburbs?<p>It can't possibly be something in the middle! All or nothing.</p>

<p>A lot of people are assuming that the main people you would be interacting with in a city are your neighbors. There are many more positive interactions you'd have, outside.<p>It's not just about neighbors.</p>

<p>> Entertainment and parasocial relationships have filled that hole.<p>I would also add the suburbanization of American society. A neat little home in a neat little sub-division with a neat little patch of grass. You can sit on your grass in your own little kingdom, and be completely unbothered by the world around you.<p>It turns out, being completely unbothered is also unchallenging, and challenge drives us. And being alone and bored is enabled by television and scrolling.<p>Honestly, I view the suburbs as the worst of both worlds (urban and rural), with few benefits.<p>BTW: As an aside, this is why i think the suburbs-class loves tesla self driving so much. The one downside is the long monotony of transitting to the place where people gather to do your work. I'm not against self driving cars, but they enable suburban self-imposed isolation.</p>

<p>Sure. But when someone says "designed this way", it really comes off as top-down.</p>

<p>> I’ve been wondering more and more lately if it was designed this way by whoever made these decisions at the top level to prevent another cold-war standoff situation.<p>Indulging in conspiracy at least allows you to pretend that the "top level" had a plan here.<p>It's much more comforting to think there was a positive intention for the way things turned out, and not just greed and short-sightedness.<p>Lots of people have written about "the cycles of empires".</p>

<p>It sounds like it'll be integrating with the call and widget apis. Right now, you can redirect any voice call that uses the system call UI to your homepod. Adding video, maybe?</p>

<p>No, but when they make claims in marketing material and then lie, it opens them to huge liability. So there is an enforcement path.</p>
