  • That’s because they’re a privately owned company. They can decide when to prioritize long term profits over short term profits.

    Most of their competition are publicity traded companies that have no such luxury. They have to make next quarter’s number higher no matter what.

    Eh, remember humans invented capitalism.

    The problem is that our brains were designed for eating berries in a cave, not driving industrialized processes at global scale.

    Our range of empathy extends roughly to our line of sight. When people in our social circle are suffering in front of us, most of us will try to do something for them. But people that are far away that get affected by our actions exist only in the logical part of our brains and don’t evoke an emotional response.

    Nothing can ever grab your screen ever. For example, when I click on a link in my messaging app, I get a notification that “Chrome is ready” so I should switch to it. Like… seriously?
