@mattiem ⚠️ In-post typo?: “distracting” → “distracted”

@mattiem @danielpunkass Not sure if philosophizing about the various possible colorings of the word “tool” is useful, but the tech did/does enable to create a lot of “things”, accomplish a lot of “goals”.

Tools cannot to be judged ethically, as they are inactive without an operator.

We can judge the quality of the tool. We do that a lot.

But when we involve ethics, even if we say “AI”, we are judging each other and arguing about our differences as human beings. That’s what’s happening.

@simonbs @ctietze Why “popular channels” should work for your interests? They exist to make profit. That’s natural.

The recent exp growth of the littering of the info space is a challenge though. But it also should be an incentive for efforts/experiments/systems/businesses for curation/moderation/filtering/discovery.

@dvrzan As a public data point you can just look at YouTube `watched` counts on video lists of dev content creators.

The only videos I personally watch are WWDC, as they are “documentation”. Otherwise, doc/article format.

I’m sure a lot of preference one way or another is coming from generational aspects and experience levels.

I can’t even say I *consume* tech content. Rather I collect blogs of “deep divers” by topics, so that when need arises I know where to scan for possible answers.

At some point, after seeing 100 instances of super-simple bugs like this, you just oscillate towards the word “pathetic”.
