It’s distressing how often the track of inventors has been overtaken by the plans of hyper-capitalists.

• Tesla cars were invented by ~~Elon Musk ~~ Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning, who were then cut out by their investor to enshittify the interface.
• Keurig coffee pods were invented by a pair of roommates that wanted them to become recyclable so they wouldn’t cause so much waste.
• Blizzard used to make fun games, and is now bought out by people that don’t.

I still need to put out my big, long-form video promoting the Accountable Capitalism Act - something that could lead a large body of software devs at a big company to be present for the big-shift plans to, say, “Remove error messages from Windows!” and tell their bosses: Hell no. The same style of issue exists in many industries.
