I thought my disillusionment with software was because I had conquered programming. Now I realize it’s because I’m pissed. Everyone is addicted to their phones (myself included) and it’s ruining the magic of the world. I want two strangers to notice each other and strike up conversation. I want that to lead to friendship and alliance. To love and devotion. I want to see a mom and her child and husband completely present together. Clearly not thinking about work or friends or “the news”. We are not angry enough at tech leadership. I will never build products that maximize time on screen. At this point, it’s a betrayal to the human race.
