well i guess it's not too recent, but the A.I. boom kinda killed my interests I've had 7 years ago. i wish it would go back to its research phase.
I'm old enough to remember when using computers daily went from a dorky interest to something the cool kids were doing (MySpace etc). Obviously, how the two groups approached computers was quite different. Even how they approached social spaces on the internet.
Idk, haven't thought about it much but I remember being pretty depleted about being interested back then. The things I was learning with basic coding and stuff could now be done in a couple of clicks, the resources were now more scarce, and the space became filled with money-people interested in promoting their brand
Ah, for sure. That's how I feel about cell phones. Haha
Linux phones might be able to do something about that, assuming they become good enough soonish. Perhaps usable Hurd phones will become available first.
It's too late.
I mean, I hate how pervasive cell phones are in the culture. I wish we had 90's tech and used pay phones so people could disconnect.
