People making the decisions are removed from how work gets done, how users engage with the product, and any real consequences. But they keep most the profits despite contributing minimally.

I feel like it should be expensive because of the externalized costs , but I don't have any real data for that

I don't know how many people have the absolute position that it "can't be used as a tool to improve anything".

There's a lot of "it's risky and expensive and anti-labor, so I don't think we should be pouring all this effort into it"

Capitalism. The people calling the shots and keeping the profits are not the people doing the work.

It's bad and will continue to be bad for everyone except the top layer of rich people.

Aside from the possibility of me being unclear, your extremely aggressive response is uncalled for. Furthermore, "everyone" is not evident given there's a total of 3 votes on the post.

My intended point was it would be nice if people were better, and could admit fault. They can't. That's a common human behavior that's infuriating. They'd rather double down. I was agreeing with you.

I'm not sure how you inferred from me lamenting that it's impossible for people to simply grow up and admit fault, that I think that it is possible. You seem to have read my post.. not even backwards, but just wrong.

I feel like my religious liberty isn't respected. My religion considers capitalism to be a sin in line with theft. When you don't give to the poor, you sin. Go on, Alito. Rule for my liberty.

It’s just rubs MAGA’s noses in the fact that they were wrong, which anyone who’s ever met knows will just make them double down.

This is true but man is it an infuriating property of humans. It's a stupid emotional response because that's easier. Just be mature enough to grow and change. It's okay. Impossible request, I know.

When I was in elementary school, a teacher said like "I haven't had a drink in 5 years" and I said "Wouldn't you, like, die?"

I don't know if he thought I was fucking with him, or my parents told me not drinking booze was lethal, or what, but he didn't like laugh and clarify what he meant.

I just replayed that part and it's really striking how effective "fuck it - run past everyone" is when you know where to go. I was long gone by the time that guy landed.

Yet a Republican president is spouting literal treason, and the response from his party? Crickets.

They seem to be cheering for it.

They probably assume a good chunk of their audience is people not really paying attention, or who tuned in halfway. For someone watching all day it's repetitive, but for someone who just showed up it's fresh. If they did something deep that needs context, the people who arrive 35% of the way through are going to be lost.
