Less consumerism, more focus on real social aspects:
- Macro: robust (decentralized) political system, that's not easily corruptible, e.g. via something like blockchain
- Micro: more focus on direct interaction with other people, not via something like a screen, as another post here already said, we're harming ourselves (promote psychiatric issues etc.) with the current state of technology (smartphone overuse). We have gone much less social (direct interaction with others) because of this I'm sure of.
Just add blockchain to something, it will show em!
Actually that's one of the few cases, where a (distributed/decentralized) blockchain really makes sense (trustless ledger which can be used for incorruptible/transparent political systems)...
Ignoring all the buzzword bingo and hype.
Developers should go back writing efficient code in lower level programming languages to stop wasting CPU cycles for stupid reasons, like not wanting to use types, or something more stupid than that.
I agree but at the same time cannot be bothered to go lower level than Python for my personal projects. It's so damn convenient.
For personal projects and prototypes i believe it's fine, but when you consume the electricity of mid-size countries just because you prefer to write your production code in convenient languages don't lecture others about ecology and climate change (i am not refering to you).
