another old record from jj

 ok.computer. Engineers are not aware of the history lesson on corruption.

I was born in USSR, in the environment with hidden assumption that politics is most dirties thing ever.
I’ve decided to study programming because people are doing it, politics everywhere all the time. I would prefer to work with machines and logic.
After 20 years of programming and 11 after relocation to US I’ve got it.
The human mind and consciousness is vulnerable.
It is unstable as nuclear reaction on power plant and corrupted minds blow.
Yes. USSR environment has gave me assumption that corruption is mostly about economy. Naturally this is part of narrative that money is the source of all evil.
I was not aware that this idea was proposed for discussion by Socrates ( Plato ). As one of many others to illustrate the vulnerability of the human mind and disastrous consequences. And “blow up”, corruption of one human mind will corrupt many others.
This is even not about psychology or compromised “software”-layer of beliefs, memories and someone’s knowledge.
This is about hardware corruption - neuroscience of anxiety, depression through fear, terror and violence. OCD, PTSD, ADHD, etc.
One simple illustration - absolute power destroys the consciousness. That is why no one should be exposed to this threat without redundancy and other precautions.
Yes. For sure this is advertising of books: “Res publica” (public affair) Cicero Plato is 101 on “why human kind is doomed”.
One of the fresh ones: “Breakneck: China's Quest to Engineer the Future” with the thesis that "America is run by lawyers, and China is run by engineers”.
Another is “Autocracy, Inc.: The Dictators Who Want to Run the World ”.
Darknet, shadow globalized criminal economy with dark wall street and dark venture funds and 10bln $ investments seeds/rounds ( 10k of lives).
Human trafficking and illegal organ transplantation. Dark startups to build armies of suicide zombies / kamikaze a-la joe’s army from mad max driven by narcotics, depression, religion, loan, health conditions, etc.
