🤦‍♂️Turns out "wise" or "good" weren't even necessary. Sure wish history or philosophy could tell us what to expect around centralization of power...guess we're blessed ChriNats and Rand/Nietzsche/Yarvin-worshipping SV CEOs united to experiment on our behalf.

Let's mix in some cursory research. ASED Program: darpa.mil/research/programs/… Thomson Reuters Special Services: trssllc.com/ Successful or not, it seems to be for *defense* against social engineering and large scale social deception. (Irony?)
Reuters was paid millions of dollars by the US government for “large scale social deception”. That is literally what it says on the purchase order! They’re a total scam. Just wow.

You have to get React Server Actions before dismissing it. It's not like old school PHP, it's not SQL on the frontend, and it doesn't invite SQL injection. (Look up tag functions!) Don't fixate on a purposefully simplistic slide example. It's very novel, very worth exploring.
