@mechanicalmonk1 what’s notable to me is what’s missing. there are inputs & costs and there are processes & products, but there is no goal, no vision, no cause, no purpose. There’s the what and the how but no why

@ollybot_redux not quite it seems to me that increases in material productivity left people with a lot of spare time that would ideally be invested into more beauty—and a bunch of it is, a lot of people travel & party with their friends and have a great time etc—but a lot is sunk into bullshit
