Daemon by Daniel Suarez. I read that as a young programmer and it’s still in my mind. Written before the whole AI hype.
The godfather. People always say the book was better. This is the case here
FUBAR@lemm.eeto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do you ever worry that you're secretly a psychopath that unknowingly manipulates people around you?3·1 year agoI have these thoughts myself and I find what you describe seem to apply to me as well. I’ve been trying to follow the saying of. Speak only when it’s true, kind, and necessary.

FUBAR@lemm.eeto Work Reform@lemmy.world•92% of young people would sacrifice other perks for a 4-day workweek—here's what they'd give up64·2 years agoThis probably won’t happen. Employees these days have no leverage. Unions are not where they used to be. Workers rights are nowhere near strong enough. Until workers have leverage nothing changes. Can’t even stop Rto at this point. Really wish things could change

I am not black or white. I can offer a perspective of an immigrant who isn’t white. Looking at how blacks were targeted for arrests and the disproportionate amount of arrests while being brought up in economically challenging environments, it is very hard to “move up”.
I immigrated to a western country with qualifications and with a good sum in my bank account and still it was challenging. I cannot imagine how generational oppression will do to a persons psyche and their worldview.
I will never understand why/how people can watch dunkirk.
