>>[2019] Preventing the Collapse of Civilization / Jonathan Blow (Thekla, Inc)

During the Q&A, he responds "do we really want software written that humans cannot understand?!" His steadfast doubts against singularity are called into question, at least by his supporting 2019 responses.

Certainly the speaker is correct that modern hardware allows software to be crappily written — I fondly recall the "olden times" recanted about full-access operating systems of yesteryear. Those days are over...

The fact that a modern computer "needs" to be online to install an update is frustrating/concerning (e.g. for MacOS, without a USB installer must be online to update, even with stand-alone updater downloaded). Just use my local hardware (that I own) and install this software (that I have provided).
