Getting on a boat, risking scurvy, amputated limbs, and a watery grave was Doin' It Right from ~3000 BC up until ~1990-2000s, when wide availability in Broadband came about to instantly intellectually teleport the human mind...
The boat type of Grab-on-Life doesn't make any sense today, as the payoff of live exploration is not efficient gains at the individual lvl. Getting on a boat is only relevant to the refinement of a person's field of labor (if and when required/possible).
How do you guys define the-fullest-desire/living ??

OK honestly - I think we are living in a very small window where normal and even untalented people can become moderately wealthy relatively easily. I don't think this window will last very much longer, but now is an incredible time for young people with no focus or professional experience to become millionaires without ever having to go to school or have any training as long as they have some passion they can create content about and find an audience for. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't obscenely jealous of them, seeing someone in their early '20s pulling down 6-7 figures a year doing their own thing with no boss or college debt.

It is truly bizarre far beyond my comprehension.
Even after reading multiple books on the subject, I still can't conceive of how what people saw on Facebook could have influenced a US election.
The concept of ephemeral "influencers" and "followers" on the internet just doesn't make sense in my mind, particularly when/if the "influencers" do not have some sort of meaningful intellectual background to substantiate their opinions.

Just because they say something happened doesn't mean it happened.
Just because they say something didn't happen, doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Tepco says 20misev is safe, it's not.

That's the scariest part about the information age. It's not about the content being factually correct, but about the size of your platform. A big enough platform you can get away with saying almost anything and having people believe it.

That's overstated, Listen and DO NOTHING is the bulk of what happens. It's a docile world that's fat and dying.
In the grand scheme, the rich is robbing the poor, but that's always been the case, not much has changed.

It's a society gravitating towards convenience. Almost all modern technology is generally built around making things easier for humans to do a thing. The poor want the illusion of feeling rich while the rich want to remain rich and untouchable.
