[04:00]	TR News	#donaldBiden (similar to Trump policies) far too late in testing and debating mask distribution. By the time this can actually happen about half the US population will have (possibly) already had #covid19 ... whether confirmed or not.
[04:02]	TR News	Donald #trump has been great for oligarchs because he set the standards for politicians very, very, VERY low. Then they swapped one "Rep" for another, #Biden (spent over a billion dollars selling him to the public) and all important policies remain largely the same. But "let them eat Democrats..."

[03:20]	schestowitz	(not used  in current form)
[03:20]	schestowitz	Peak Hack
[03:20]	schestowitz	Part 1
[03:20]	schestowitz	They ask me, "Grandad, what did you do in the software wars?" I went mad. No, that I cannot say. I want to tell them, "I coded for the resistance". But even today it is hard to talk about, and I cannot sustain that lie. Truth is, I was a coward. The "software wars" never really happened not like actual wars. They're a story we tell today about how things fell apart. Sure, I was a great hacker, but like all the others I just gave up, and that's how 
[03:20]	schestowitz	we beat 'em if this is winning.
[03:20]	schestowitz	I think people knew it was coming. Digital technology had always created conflict. The humanists who stood up to AI dehumanisation and "bullshit jobs" were marginalised and dubbed Neo-Luddites. In the second and third crypto wars people fought for the right to private communication, and then for the right to use open plaintext protocols without mandated recipient codes. Around then, people got confused over that "contradiction". It took another 20 
[03:20]	schestowitz	years to realise encryption, for or against, had nothing to do with it. It was always about control. Technology organised on any large scale was inherently troublesome for meaningful human choice.
[03:21]	schestowitz	But anyway, the Semantic Wars (what they used to call the Culture Wars), with its trollbot armies and meme mafia, had already made it impossible for anyone to talk to anyone else. Our fight to be heard, to have our words "mean what we mean" had silenced our voices and stripped away meaning. The Great Communication Breakdown was not a lack of will to talk, or "polarisation", but a failure of the medium of communication itself.
[03:21]	schestowitz	In the mid-twenties the Security Wars raged, to decide whose security was most important - the vendors or the 'users'. Until those days most of us had regarded security as a shared value, a tide to raise all ships. A rather more painful truth, is that under surveillance capitalism security is a zero sum game. For that kind of "security", your security is my insecurity, and vice versa.
[03:21]	schestowitz	I had never wondered, until that time, how Orwellian contronyms arose. Soon it seemed we were divided into two camps. So-called "Secure Software", rubber-stamped by quasi-governmental corporations, was laughably insecure. Everyone knew it. But once governments had invested their pride, maintaining the pretence became a political priority. Still, it gave the corporations a monopoly on commerce, medical and even educational computing, and that fed the 
[03:21]	schestowitz	banking and insurance sector.
[03:21]	schestowitz	For everyone else, there was "Insecure Software", also called "Free Software" by some older people. That was the stuff you needed if you really wanted safe and stable systems. After that time Google and Microsoft controlled access to half the world's "secure" computers. From there on, society largely operated despite, not by, its consumer-communist institutions, policies and offices. Software became a Soviet-era black-market. For everything you needed 
[03:21]	schestowitz	there was an official solution, and an illegal "Insecure" one that actually worked.
[03:21]	schestowitz	So, please understand, that by the time of the so-called Software Wars, everything was already "at war". Indeed, as historians now note, in the period between 1960 and 2060 people had mistaken what they called "The Internet" for a communications system, when it had in fact been an Ideal and a Battleground all along - the site of the 100 years info-war.
[03:21]	schestowitz	Part 2
[03:21]	schestowitz	My story? Before the "wars" I was a Free Software "hacker". The nights were late, the pay was nothing. We were an all-volunteer militia. There was no recognition, just a sense of being part of something. But oh boy, were we part of something! We felt like we were building history. I made companies. I taught new hackers.
[03:21]	schestowitz	All things pass. Much changed in the years between the great pandemics and the mid-century storms when skyscrapers fell like dominoes. But I remember the software crisis starting, how suddenly it all blew up. How many people were already on the edge? The communications crisis had kept us from knowing about each another or what was happening. With all the "disinformation" eliminated, we were swaddled, blind, clothed by the machine. Then, so suddenly, 
[03:21]	schestowitz	here, naked and together.
[03:21]	schestowitz	I remember your little sister dying because your mother couldn't call an ambulance. Maybe, if it hadn't been for that Twitter thing with her work, if she hadn't been disconnected, things could have been different. The neighbours she blamed, they weren't bad people. Just afraid, like everyone. Unauthorised assistance meant certain disconnection. Besides, going outside to get help, too risky for someone facebanned like your mum one step too close to 
[03:21]	schestowitz	the Ring, a passing vehicle or stranger wearing Glasses would be enough.
[03:21]	schestowitz	That must have been around "peak software". You don't notice peak anything while you're living through it. By definition , it's the golden moment. Back then there were hundreds of languages - C++, JavaScript, Lua, Lisp, Go, Python, Rust, Ruby, Perl there were millions of coders and billions of devices. Software pulsed and flowed, in hourly updates, through the internet into the gadgets that ran our lives. Secure Software, nourishing the always-on, 
[03:21]	schestowitz	always pumping machine.
[03:21]	schestowitz	There had been books. Warnings. "The machine stops." But nobody read long-form any more. And then it did stop. No great conspiracy. No revolution. No foreign hackers. No mythical "software wars". Like all hearts, it just grew old, tired and sick, and one day it gave up. Some spirit within it died and the software went away.
[03:21]	schestowitz	Nobody can trace the steps along that road to total tech dependency. Fools chasing Utopias. It seemed no time at all between that week when the food deliveries stopped and the lights going out. Your uncle Archie said it, "One day the code will run out", and we all laughed at him. "Everything runs on software, but it's not sustainable", he said. Your uncle Archie was a Malthusian worrier. Everyone knew software had zero cost and was inexhaustible. 
[03:21]	schestowitz	There would always be kids who wanted to write it, to prove something, to scratch an itch. Besides, machines would soon write all the code we'd ever need.
[03:21]	schestowitz	Those who wrote code for money didn't much care. Their careers were short and the work exhausting. They built on top of libraries built on libraries. Dependency all the way down. To where? Nobody cared now. Nobody remembered, about those few strange people who did things not for money, but because it made them feel good.
[03:21]	schestowitz	Now, you will not understand this, but "vocations", "callings", "civic duty", these old words from before The Face Chain and The Age of Legibility seem senseless now. When it all turned against the nurses and teachers, the medics, firefighters, police, child-carers, they called it Interpersonal Disorder. A mid century copy of the DSM describes a "pathological desire to interact with or serve other humans rather than accept convenient rational 
[03:21]	schestowitz	transaction with the machine".
[03:21]	schestowitz	Around the time of the first pandemic some guy called Graeber wrote about "moral resentment". Hate of care. Within a decade not only was it overt, it was policy. By the thirties, only performative activity backed up by a smart contract could earn credit. And, of course, only if validated by public perception telemetry tied to verified Face Chain identities. Helping a neighbour or family member might be overlooked, but whatever could not be rationally 
[03:21]	schestowitz	explained, officially termed "care labour", was likely to get you a visit from the controllers.
[03:21]	schestowitz	But "Free" coders did still exist. They still believed that "Software Freedom" as prescribed by the great Stallman could open a doorway out of enslavement. In practice authorities turned a blind eye. These farm animals were obliviously in service of the BigTeks, who harvested their code to fuel the machine.
[03:21]	schestowitz	A fact not known at the time was the giant corporations could no longer sustain their own code. Languages and technologies had diversified so much, too fast, while complexity and dependency was so deep, and education so poor, that the "third industrial revolution" quietly ran out of steam. Only momentum, aspiration and the inability of the masses to comprehend the decline kept things buoyant throughout the late twenties and thirties.
[03:21]	schestowitz	Technically the value of code and content which powered the machine hit zero. Then came negative wages. Now we were all supposed to pay, out of our UBI, for the privilege of keeping BigTek afloat?! Being a "non-contributor" became a stigma under corporate consumer communism.
[03:21]	schestowitz	Students, the only class in history who pay to work, rushed to fill the jobs without complaint. The costs of being a code worker were less than staying in education. In theory it was an "administrative fee" to code, and by that loophole it was technically not illegal care labour. Crucially this meant that the average age of tech workers fell from 41 to 22 in a decade, eliminating from society almost the entire body of active wisdom - those who knew 
[03:21]	schestowitz	how stuff worked.
[03:21]	schestowitz	Some techies whispered of "Going Galt", or the great "Techxit" when all the creators and developers were supposed to stop coding in protest at the Face Chain. But it never happened. Fear kept them in line. It was not fear of losing income. Such crude social control policies were so 20th century. To take away a person's purpose, was the new cruelty of power. Losing your license to code or game often led to suicide. The enclosure of Free Software had 
[03:21]	schestowitz	been largely successful because for many, the consumer-communist ideology of "code for the greater good" pacified their doubts.
[03:21]	schestowitz	But something was slowly shifting. Years before, in China it had been "Tang Ping", that ended in the "code for food" camps. In the USA a "Great Resignation" was successfully dismissed by social control media as disinformation. Some withdrew or poisoned their own libraries in protest, but their works were seized, reverted and stripped of their names by the Ministry of Code (previously Github).
[03:21]	schestowitz	When SMMC's "security mandated maintenance changes" were first issued, paying coders dutifully went along, virtuously signalling that it was the "responsible" thing to do. I would say it happened right there. Those first seeds were sown into the depleted soil of free software captured by its new master of "public necessity". From there the weeds would slowly spread.
[03:21]	schestowitz	BigTek wanted to be like the banks, too big to fail. They needed to show the vestiges of government who was boss. Those were the "three day weeks". The staged "security crises" lasted months, as the infamous Goldberg, alleged leader of Eponymous, "attacked our precious infrastructure". Of course some people learned how to store electricity, offline data and food for the remaining four days, but those who died could not hack the DRM of their solar 
[03:21]	schestowitz	batteries, home appliances or get past the "Life Rights Management" for online access.
[03:21]	schestowitz	For so many years BigTek had been parasitical on hobby projects and the Free coders. Now they would get it declared "critical infrastructure dependency". Github underwent some re-branding. Thousands of accounts flipped to read-only, then were locked, and then one day it became "The Ministry of Code".
[03:21]	schestowitz	In the blink of an eye Microsoft and the venture capitalists appropriated nearly ninety percent of all 'Free Open Source' software, to "ensure stability". They kept the "messaging" light and positive - thanking all past contributors for their hard work over the years. It was, in all but name, the largest land-grab since William's rule in 1066.
[03:21]	schestowitz	The Free Software Foundation remained dutifully quiet, helping deliver the peasants to their feudal lords. Debian and Mozilla played along. They were made "Yeoman Freeholders" in return for rewriting their charters to "work closely with the new Ministry in the interests of all stakeholders" - or some-such vacuous spout because no one remembers after that it started.
[03:21]	schestowitz	Part 3
[03:21]	schestowitz	The mind can rule the body. Psychogenic death happens when the software gives up. After a cancer diagnosis or a voodoo curse some people age ten years in a month and pass away even while quite healthy. We think empires fall from over-reach, but that is only half a truth. History books say the edges crumbled, but in fact Rome died first and things fell apart from the inside. The centre can only hold strong where there is uncorrupted will.
[03:21]	schestowitz	People always asked me, before the collapse, "But how will we build a Utopia". I laughed. Real people are not driven by visions of Utopia, but by the simple faults at the edges of life. At heart we are explorers who must find new risks, healers who seek out our injured, teachers who need the attention of those hungry for knowledge, and protectors who see danger and vulnerable others to put ourselves between. Those are our itches at which we scratch. 
[03:22]	schestowitz	It is in service of each others' suffering that we find meaning.
[03:22]	schestowitz	A Utopia? A society so perfect, so abstracted, so managed, so owned, so tranquil, so fair, so incorruptible in its smartness, so beyond mere technology - is a society not worth living in or for. It is a simulation and performance of a society that offers no reason for itself but that everything be in service of it.
[03:22]	schestowitz	Before this self-devouring monster, the imperfect technological society of the twenty first century had built itself on the energy and love of those they called the "hackers", many of whom lived and worked in the twentieth century. Simply, they were workers, though some elevated themselves to titles like "developer", "CTO" or "computer scientists". We were always workers.
[03:22]	schestowitz	Some were intrinsically motivated autotelic personalities engaged in the love of problem solving. Some were quiet moral labourers committed to the challenge building a "better world". Some were social refuseniks who hid behind avatars and anonymity. Others were dissatisfied and restive women and men, motley crews of misfits and egotists hungry to be known and admired. Hackers were all sorts of things, but foremost they were people. Software is people.
[03:22]	schestowitz	People built and ran the machine. Now, there it was, at last. Tamed. A system so slick, elegant, and otherly. It could provide everything we asked for, except for one thing - its absence. Any whim, impulse or fantasy satisfied now. Delivered instantly, no pause, no shame, pay later. Anything you like, except for one simple request, that it shut itself off and leave us alone. Soon, all people talked about was the machine, it's constant demands for 
[03:22]	schestowitz	our happiness, acquiescence and smiling fealty.
[03:22]	schestowitz	Nobody noticed the shrinking number of human accounts at the Ministry of Code. A dearth of new coders was eclipsed by the crisis of maintainers, growing old and retiring. Schools had not taught programming since the 1990s. Universities had dumbed down computer science courses to certificate training. Hackers were brought into the fold, domesticated and made "ethical".
[03:22]	schestowitz	By the time the BigTeks realised that education was a real profession, a hard, and unprofitable one, they had trained a generation of mindless, and mostly useless maintenance engineers and sysadmins who could not think beyond their parochial, proprietary instructions.
[03:22]	schestowitz	By the time the tech press reported a serious problem in recruitment it was 20 years too late. Some old guy named Linus, someone of importance if I recall correctly, retired, leaving half-hearted replacements and a bloated, fragmented project that soon faltered. Your aunt Alice fought in the Kernel Wars you know, but we don't talk about Alice.
[03:22]	schestowitz	The "war" that never happened began when BigTek and the governments needed a narrative to explain what was happening. They wanted the old hackers back. But they were dying-off by then. Forty years too late, they offered to pay for Free software. "Code whatever you like" they said, "We'll pay whatever it takes".
[03:22]	schestowitz	Trillionaire philanthropists opened their bank accounts, "Money no object" they said. But it was no use. Old hackers want walks in the park with the grandkids. "That's not my business any longer", they said. We tried to train new hackers, but the kids were not interested, ambivalent now towards technology that only seemed to control their lives. It was "no fun to compute". The excitement of possibility, of "making a difference", was gone.
[03:22]	schestowitz	So the powers needed an enemy, a scapegoat. Goldberg's Neo-Luddite subversives, saboteurs, and malcontents were now blamed for causing the software crisis. Supposedly a "a secret resistance" were coding new systems that would save us. But nobody could find them. Eponymous were causing software to fail, but beyond the fantasies of the press, nobody could find Eponymous. They did not exist. The CIA, adept at entrapment and honeypots, created fake "
[03:22]	schestowitz	militant hacker groups" to draw in and reorient high-IQ candidates, but nobody came.
[03:22]	schestowitz	The sun was setting on the age of software as it peaked. We had enjoyed all that we dreamed of. Drones flew in the skies over our houses, keeping us safe. Fingerprint door handles kept out the bad men. Everything was on the Face-Chain. Surveillance perimeters, smart TVs (Telescreens built to Orwell's original blueprint) watched over our living rooms. Mandatory smart everything kept us safe. Safe search, safe thoughts. We withdrew. Inside, we went 
[03:22]	schestowitz	quietly mad. We went Meta. And then Meta metastasised, into the heart of our reason, until there was reason no more. Nobody coded. Nobody cared, and the machine whimpered.
