My 2023 energy is 'let's discuss alternatives to capitalism and how to build them.'
@schock mine too. It’s time.
@cbecker @schock In development, when you’re saddled with pernicious legacy code that is unsustainable but forms the foundation of your system, the thing to try is not violent replacement, not resigned acquiescence, but #refactoring: careful replacement of each dependency on the old code with something more sustainable, without sacrificing the acknowledged benefits of what came before. Not sexy, but it works! Let’s do that.
@cbecker @schock Quite so, and I don’t intend any making light of either the harms created by the “legacy code” or the efforts required to refactor them. I’m new to #degrowth, but it seems more of a (justified) reaction against the paradigm of growth than a means of preserving whatever was good about that paradigm while correcting what has been harmful about it.
