I’m kinda glad this metaphor is obscure if you don’t know the computing sense of the term. I’d get ratio’d otherwise. I laid it out a few years ago when the metaphor was less... fraught.

Maybe two types of connections. Those who are connected through social media thrive. Those who are still connected to others mostly through physical 20th century connections are risk of garbage collection.

Exactly... you’re getting why this is a dank metaphor. The people at most risk in the dull, dirty, dangerous work are going to have their jobs automated away slowly once this ends. They’re marked for collection already.

Yeah cash elimination might be the biggest garbage collection operation. Nobody will have any change to give homeless people, and the little “no cash” lie we use to dodge them will become true

High winds just knocked out my power and am now living off batteries and candles. Virtual connections now at risk. Must save battery to avoid garbage collection. Good night.
