"It's not personal,"... but life is... 

It's not personal, but somewhat it inevitably is (looking from many levels and aspects of life).

The short-term/long-term relativity between humanity without those human things just DEMANDS ATTENTION in the end, whether we are directly or indirectly giving ourselves that respect to others and doing / not doing 'human' work somewhat.

The reader can ask whether they do any human work (as part of their life or job). Whether it's by their way or system's way of doing things, don't you want a more personal impact / connection / respect with the world?

It does come back inevitably as human, as long as humans are alive.

In other words you could say "people doing all the same-same science/tech stuff is directly responsible for people feeling and living without the human contact and consideration stuff".

You could say it's not personal or against me, but al lot of this measurably and deliberately IS are against me / people, whether it's said deliberately or unsaid.

I don't have a choice to live without the human stuff- although others might feel it's ok.

@freemo The human problem you know is my thing as humans themselves need fixing / caring for / sorting out... and I don't think I've heard anything of that in there of that focus...

So to continue my judgement about what our business can be is naturally disappointed a bit from just hearing another data type thing in and out, who cares about people, and ok a bit of open source and ethics as company. But not as the main training or conversion (people themselves coming out better, using people and spiralling others into similar better ways and practices, using all other open-sources projects etc).

So asking me of the end goals I see on my side - it's love and friendship with the world - but the mid-goals are something more of the working with each other and on each others troubles... on the dreams even... more the deep diving stuff more than raw numbers and "business".

If what you said genuinely is without logic and emotional training of people or not trying to sort out people out humanly and demonstrating that better - then it means you're just dealing with the same things again, computers and data which are not really solving things or more going to solve it for the wrong people / those paying - so the misunderstanding of people / devaluation / competition and aggression frustration / together etc remains unchanged and as time goes on worse / decaying unless we actually grow people up together (us included but in pyramid of knowledge or various power).

Honestly my hope is that you actually train people to feeling more at ease with themselves and others, and make this the actual work to spiral all that more than AI data, more the human collective intelligence, p2p and less making other stuff the business of selling / extraction / storing data.... which when it goes leave less skilled people perhaps...

I don't want to sound like I doubt you but honestly everything in business seems to measurably fuel those war like things, same entities that don't care and allowed you to create a company in the first place as a sub-directory or sub-directory under them, so if they are not caring (USA caring?) then your company is also limited as athe parent 'company' - I just think we could have more fun with people enjoying this time of focus and changing each other than falling for serving bad parents and masters.. at least a warmer exchange rather than raw data somewhere behind closed doors.

You will be rich I'm sure, but not the right kind of rich... as those who pay for it are going to be the ones playing people off each other / war since it's already based on that as fake/debt-based games which uncaring banks and governments have undoubtedly made... Your 'company' will surely be part of that... so the conversion of humans is what I mean here... not easy to explain but easy to see as communication is not great on many levels or genuine... and that is a good start not able to be done without real focus as if good communication and friendship was our real business...

Put another way - if we are *not dealing with people's own problems* or training then we are surely losing heat and warmth by people... especially when there are many ready to divide and conquer us. People are the main problem and puzzle and key to loving-making friends - neither computers or computing, nor data is going to help that much...
and I think the past says that though Fediverse as a non-profit I think can really do well as p2p warmth and getting on with each other things as the real work in the world... ✊

Emotional intelligence and other words uncommon involved I can help with...which I think is more effective as data and science as that is not touching on any of that. What humanity needs os more of the humanity itself / the good people / you - rather than more of the same "business" and tax which is just used to rob people / devalue / divide them using their own hard work...

Perhaps my main judgement that *nobody* is really doing this fixing of people / schooling / daily helping everyone / using us as resources towards more of the same... and adjustment from previous unschooling... because frankly money and even data is not enough....

Will post and re-read later but appreciate the answer that I think will kill off my other questions if you have some counters to how your potential work can make things better in the world (which seems is people more than anything).

@mxlinux I am having trouble creating an account on the #mxlinux forums. It keeps flagging me for spam. I tried to write your server admin about it but it flagged me for spam again. I gave it my legit email and answered the questions seriously. I pointed out dogs in sunglasses according to your captcha.😭

Music Artists that take drugs so much... Gil Scott-Heron for example... 

I could never respect any artist too much if leaning on drugs too much - always drew the line much earlier.

I knew Gil Scott-Heron was someone original but reading his wiki, as a drug taker takes the edge off the creativity or realness somehow...

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gil_Scot

Anyway my favourite track so far is:

Gil Scott-Heron - "Home Is Where The Hatred Is"
(1998 Album: The Revolution Will Not Be Televised)

Imagine I'm Eminem without all the professionals around helping him... 

I'm like Eminem but without the all the writers, professional studio, arrangement, supporting artists, equipment, producers etc...

If you can imagine that then you can see people with character and determination just need support and more comes out of it together.

Not saying I'm Eminem quality but if you imagine him just as he was, he might sound ruff and unpolished like me - see this for example:

Guess what everything is built on top of? 

HINT:

And,,, No wonder the phrase, "runaway debt" exists - "society" is negatively charged from debt money and "growing" more of it (all money passed through make upto x9 the original principle, of which also came from debt already!

Uncaring systems just want tax entities. 

Not really caring about anything else about you.

Taxable people, to prostitute them.
(to make people sell one's body for money).

yourself and give back

Imperfection in #Life, #Chess, All Things - Imperfection in the "Game of Life" gives opportunity to interlock and join together... 

I think we have to accept and even enjoy im-perfect games between us.

Like communication on the (anything deep we must expect to falter, be mistaken, offended etc) because the objective is not to "win" against in 1 go or perfectly but with each let each other continue communication and ping pong with nice vibes while trying to fit into each others games, some we have already in our life and maybe some new ones.

The gaps or imperfection allow these mini games of life interlock like cogs or weaves to make a fairly strong process or basket!

Else we are playing the wrong game, I think. Chess is only good if you see the learning as opportunities (by either player, not just winning), and collecting those gems... else beating people up (by skill or chance) and even becoming a champion, of anything, still has it's limits and is the same lonely in the end if not together with people.

Just ask me as I'm all these things occasionally, but really would rather play these more imperfect mini-games of real life and get better at relativity between us as it feels we are losing time and not doing this at all in jobs and is more "hi, bye" or "hired hands".

The warmth and real progress comes from actually caring about each other, not just a man-made more-static game.

🗨️ Get in contact 💬
I promise to play nice "chess" and accept you for whoever shows up today...

not perfect or expecting human perfection - Allow work *with* imperfection and learning !

@freemo Have a look (and listen to audio version) in this post and let me know what you think please!
Thanks

" The age old problem is that it’s much harder to get older minds to do your biding than younger ones who know no different. "

[ I will say, in the modern sense saying too much can be a problem and weakness (to those that are attacking) but in general if you accept your own position then from distance it can be less used against you or bluff's need calling first instead of scare tactics ]
