Hello, alright just a little rant about how ego halts productivity. Now of course looking at it from a standpoint of monetary-based economics this is easy when it takes 15 billion dollars to build a total piece of shit death trap space shuttle to launch up into into orbit that is the bureaucracy interfering with technological advancement because I mean shit I mean look at how powerful just you know just your personal computer is your laptop or whatever it is you're using compared to like the technology 10 years ago so we definitely have the capability to like put us into like the world of Star Trek like in a pretty quick order so it's bureaucracy that's really holding us back and that all stems from ego in the monetary system and such but let's look at it from a standpoint of a concept of resource-based economics the free and open source world you know you look at all the free awesome softwares that are out there especially for Linux I mean there's so many different types of Linux and it's a free and open source operating system it's better than Windows it's more efficient than Windows most of this stuff doesn't cost anything you know just programmers get together and they they develop this and they work on this just like for the for the greater good of everybody but here's the whole irony of it is see programmers because they're geniuses now I'm gonna say most programmers not all because I don't want a stereotype but I would say the vast majority of programmers um their ego kind of puts them a little you know out on the common sense category um most of the common sense is just go shoo because they they see convenience features as moron features and I really I agree with them on the fact that a computer should not try to do your thinking for you um you should definitely you know be in control of it not not the other way around and I am against features that would you know continue to further vegetableize people's heads but only thing is is that a lot of coders confuse um if convenience efficiency features with moron features now if there's a feature that you know let's say some sort of a global configuration setting to where okay maybe it's gonna take me 20 minutes to go on and configure that but if it's a configuration template that I'm gonna be using all the time within that program because I'm using that program a lot then it's gonna save me like thousands of hours then it taking that 20 minutes to set it up like that every single time because the program isn't capable of you know saving the setting for whatever reason but the programmers looking at it from a standpoint of like well it ain't gonna kill you to go in and insert that up each time 20 minutes eight that long you can go ahead and do that okay maybe 20 minutes isn't that long but when you're doing that each time that adds up to thousands and thousands and thousands of hours over time and maybe these coders are such geeks that they they can't get a girl and they don't have a life and like they're just like stuck in their homes like like forever like the frickin board docked into their their little catacom thingies with like cybernetic implants to their braid and maybe they live on the net but some of us actually have a fucking life and so you know being able to increase our efficiency and productivity it's a good thing and you see this is like the real joke on open source because a lot of these programmers they have this eager like you all have to do it my way or no way and they all sink like that well not all but you know most they most think like that so if you look at how awesome open source programs are and you look at all the cool shit that they can do and you see that the features that most of it has even just totally blows away the features of the commercial software I mean if you really look into it you will be shocked and amazed at what spending zero dollars and zero cents can get you you look at how awesome that is and then you're thinking wow how much better could it be if instead of all these coders like fighting each other and competing with each other and bickering and arguing about their API is the most efficient and fuck you it's got to be done this way and and this protocol is better than this protocol and all these things that hold up development imagine if you know all the coders were working together because you know more efficiently because only ego can be offended by the identification and analysis of problems productivity can't be offended by that because if you can identify problems and find solution to the solutions to those problems it's a damn good thing isn't it so of course you know a lot of these people they're not going to be able to to look at themselves in that way and be like well damn you know I've been I've been kind of an arrogant prick have in time and I didn't know I was and I didn't mean to be but now I've I identified this so now I'm going to open my mind and shift things around and no longer be an arrogant prick and now my productivity and efficiency is going to go way up and it's going to be a good thing it's not going to be something for me to be offended about or pissed off about because this information was inconvenient to my ego it's going to be a good thing it's going to help me it's going to increase my productivity so and everybody does this to some point or another regardless of whether they're a programmer or not whether they're a genius or not regardless of how intelligent or not you sink you are everyone does this to some extent so we've just got a got a way got of the paradise and just kind of shoot ego you know just be like no he goes I'm not ego's bitch anymore no fuck you ego I'm you know let go my ego I want to shoot it and so you've really got to break free of these and realize that you know when someone fries to point something out to you that they're not necessarily being a fucking dick that you know maybe it's just the equivalent of hey you know your fly is open you know I'm not trying to be a be a jerk about it it's just your cocks just hanging out flapping around all over the place and I'm pretty sure you don't want that that it's kind of embarrassing and trying to save you there's humiliation if you zip up your fly or your cock wouldn't be out flapping in the in the wind for everybody to look at it and laugh at you and go my god his cock's out there flapping in the freaking wind with a loser yeah so change your perspective change your thinking and man life it's gonna be a lot better it's gonna be a little hard it's gonna take a while it's gonna difficult first but you can do it
