<p>There being terms and relations doesn't mean that they relate in the way that is supposed here.<p>"writing" isn't a technology in a video game that you research and improves the knowledge preservation instantly. It has a lot of components that it needs to be effective in the way that is described here, and it really wasn't that effective even coming to way later ages than the age that it was "found"(?).<p>The relations described here aren't anologous to "Ai separated humans from language" so they seem like just some arbitrary things to say on the side.</p>

<p>> I think there should be a law that any info is fully public after like 20 years unless releasing it would put a specific person or named group in danger<p>They don't even release files about human trafficking rings (epstein). Pretty sure what you are suggesting is impossible.<p>From the outside, it even looks like Trump attacked Iran because of the epstein files. The war is causing more deaths and terror. And it is causing economic problems worldwide. Pretty sure US government legitimacy is at the lowest point in my lifetime.</p>

<p>It is perplexing how similar it looks when a stupid person who is elected by a stupid base is directing a country.<p>The difference between people doing corruption before and Trump is that the other people had a "legit" lifestyle and worldview but did corruption as a side thing. An ignorant business person like Trump has corruption/intimidation/coercion/deception etc. as a lifestyle because someone like him can't live in the world that he is living in without this lifestyle.<p>Trump isn't really corrupt in the same sense as Obama because they are fundamentally different. You could even say more educated politicians that are able to understand what is going on are more evil.<p>People won't tolerate evil politicians anymore because they understand they are being robbed by the financial system and aren't getting their piece of the pie. It has to be a break to democracy (war?) or economic reform or Mamdani/Trump style government from now, it is really unthinkable people will keep electing Biden/Hilary/Harris/JD Vance kind of politicians anymore unless there is a big breakthrough in brainwashing</p>

<p>Organization is too abstract here.<p>It also depends on how you model the problem. You can easily say the hardest part is hiring people if you are the boss. Since the people you hire can do everything else that needs to be done.<p>Managing and motivating people is the hardest part for the person who is doing it.<p>If you are hiring you might say it is harder to find good managers than programmers.<p>It is not measurable who did a good job at what as almost everything requires a group of people doing different things.<p>You can see how pointless this is becoming as we don’t have a measure for anything.<p>This kind of problem requires assumptions because it doesn’t hing on anything natural.<p>For example, if you start by believing salary indicates value then you can go from there.<p>In the end there are millions of managers, millions of programmers, millions of ux designers etc. It is kind of funny to suggest doing any of these is inherently harder than the other.<p>Just imagine you are judging a project. You have everything about it recorded. How hard do you think it would be to judge who had more part in the outcome in what way? If 10 people judged it separately, how many would have similar opinions etc.<p>It is impossible to judge even for a specific case, so it is a joke to consider to find the universal rule for it.<p>In the end it is ok to believe something but it is also important to not forget that it is a belief</p>

<p>People are very willing to use new things when something they are using can't do what they want to do.<p>Dogma is more effective than reliability concerns in my experience. It just happens that the dogma prefers Postgres in this case.<p>It is just difficult to make these decisions in a more informed way because it requires actual manual testing with the concrete use case and also a decent understanding of databases in question. Chances are you won't have people that understand these things or those people won't have much of a say in decisions.</p>
