    Computation is just a bunch of made up stories that got out of hand.

    5/ It isn't a foregone conclusion that crummy relationships mediated by technology will evolve into good relationships mediated by technology. However, I think that we can continue to create technology that enables and structures good relationships, if we work hard enough. /End

    4/ Nowadays I interact with folks inside of a very large, geographically distributed, highly mechanised organization all the time, and it's usually point to point or in small groups, and it's great and I end up making friends! But I think it took a long time to get to where it is

    3/ This fear makes sense. If you need a lot of time clocks and filing cabinets and forms-in-triplicate to mediate a relationship, that might be a bad relationship.

    2/ but computers as business automation are part of what folks fear about computers - you can use a computer to prop up or even create broken and inhumane business cultures. Mary is 35 seconds late for her shift, put it down on her permanent record!

    1/ An awful lot of computer programs exist to automate communication and record keeping around business processes. This is ok! Cheaper paperclips is are a good thing! Fewer hassles at work is great! A lot of human communication is business processes.

    I once saw one of the original UNIX folks describe a pillar of their philosophy with "We just didn't know how to write big programs." I suspect we still don't know how to write big programs.

    there's a learn-to-code argument that, like, learning code gives you agency over your tech i'm uncomfortable w/ that argument, & i think "our data is stuck in apps" is why: no matter how skilled a programmer you become, you still won't control many apps. it's a structural issue

    COMPENDIUM OF LESSER HYPERLINKS IN INTFIC Zipper Link: a link that is activated not by clicking, but by sliding the pointer across it, causing the letters to separate vertically in alternating directions. Worn Link: a link with fingerprint marks all over it, suggesting overuse.

    Identity in network computing is difficult, because it requires us to hammer square pegs into round holes. "What peer on behalf of what human and to what record?" is the wrong question a lot of the time, and there isn't a right one. Where is the identity of a river or a fire?

    That said: - it's always kinda sad when these stories require transgression or the voiding of warranties - I'll only learn what today's stories are in 15 years when those kids are my co-workers

    Every generation of programmers after the Apple II dispair about how kids today will get started. Thinking back to their first wrangle with some script or procedure, they wonder how things will go now that Doom mods or Geocities or Neopets are gone.

    the end of moore's law is some disquieting metaphor for so-called 'late-stage capitalism', like we started hitting a real limit - transistors, heat - but expectations, markets, needs, couldn't stop, so we found ways to keep the party going, which are starting to show cracks.
