Why do you want to be better? What is the problem?
- Comment on Is it normal to feel tired of technological progress? 3 weeks ago:
The irony is the use of technology to ask the question. Your level of tech use and engagement is a personal choice. You can minimise or stop anytime. Most choose to minimise, I’d suspect because some innovations are quite useful.
Also, in an existence where the only constant is change, where every moment and conscious perspective is uniquely different and where novel complexity only increases, it would be wise to cultivate patience and a neutral perspective on change.

- Comment on Chad scraper 1 year ago:
‘Scraping’ is the process of anonymously and programmatically collecting data from a webpage(s), often without the website’s permission and only limited to the content made publicly available. This is I contrast to using an API provided by the database owner which is limited by tokens, access volume, available end points etc.
