I'm just like, hey, I'm born, bred for working.

I'm down to ask a rain cloud to do the job of a son.

I'm like, this is my task and this is what I do.

Maybe some people aren't.

Lots of people, what they do on a weekend or what they do in the evening or for some extra dollar, like give guitar lessons or so, is vastly more productive for society than the cashier job at the supermarket, right?

Or these kinds of things.

So like, I think people will get options.

Products will get enormously cheap or purchasing power is going to go up like crazy.

and people will be able to make choices.

We will find new ways of working together.

We will find much more liquid ways of moving money around for value generated.

You know, I know multiple people who have done, built companies, they sold the companies really well, and they became essentially gentlemen scientists or gentlemen programmers.

Like, you know, most of us,

who use Cloud Code, use it through Ghosty on a Mac.

Usually Ghosty is like a terminal application.

It's just like perfect, right?

And it's like, it's such a weird thing to have spent your time doing this.

But like the author chose to, after he sold his company, to by hand make a perfectly crafted piece of software that he thought needed to exist.

And now everyone agrees with him on how that it needed to exist because he built like everything on it.

I have like 15 Ghosty terminals on my desktop all around you right now.
