FRiend, I build things. I have machinery so accurate it’s controlled as munitions under federal law. Don’t pretend you’re lecturing some Luddite. I see the shortcomings every day, and I see that the situation is not improving, every day.
The outsourcing of technology and skills is not leading to a utopia.

I’m not pretending I’m lecturing a Luddite, I’m full on lecturing someone who either has no idea how 21st century life works or is pretending to not understand to defend a bad position they’ve copped.

Now you’re weaseling to a different position. Meanwhile our technology, which indeed governs every single aspect of your life, is getting MORE reliable not less.

Face it, you’re WRONG. The self driving car is coming, and it will be better at driving than us. Much like how the self managed electrical grid arrived decades ago and is much more reliable. This isn’t about outsourcing, or shortcomings, or any other buzzword you want to weasel to. This is about you landed here with one word, which was meaningless in the context, and keep trying to find some way to have meaning, and you don’t.

Your position is false, your logic is non-existent, you have been weighed and measured and found wanting. The only question now is are you man enough to admit it. My money is on no.
