"Software is eating the world"
was relevant a decade ago.
We are beyond that.
Software ate the world.
The result is an ever-thickening
swarm of humanized-minds across the globe.
These humanized-minds are known by one or more of these labels -
software engineer or developer, data scientist or analyst or engineer, etc.
and their puppeteers - engineering, product, or culture managers.
Many things have
resulted in the mutation of
human beings into humanized-anti-beings.
Most will label it innovation and progression.
These people are mutated beyond reversal.
And their mutation will only worsen.
The few who care to understand,
are the target readers for
this post.
The rat-race of offering services
"as a service"
is sheer madness, to say the least.
It started with software as a service (SAAS)
And soon there was a plethora of those.
For SAAS was/is not just software-as-a-service.
It has been a slippery slope of licensing disservices.
I have written earlier and will stress it again,
all that man knows as service
is really a disservice
to his core.
Because it provides for him to hide from
the Truth of his life by basking as himself.
Why a "X" is born,
Why it takes off,
Why sooner than later, more and more start needing it,
is not the concern of a humanized-mind.
Because he is too "talented" to bother with such an understanding.
Sooner than later, his "talent"
kicks off "X as a service".
Thanks to the Internet,
it is getting simpler every day.
The Truth behind this
"as a service" madness,
brings disgust and disgust alone...
A new "as a service" is born to solve a problem.
The problem exists because of the
exploitation of some other "as a service",
and the blinded problem solving that provided for that exploitation.
One "solves the problem" because...
1. They do not care to understand why the problem exists.
2. They "love" problem-solving.
By "solving this problem" one commits to the grave mistakes of...
1. Not understanding the deeper problem.
2. Giving birth to more problems that simply did not need to exist.
But it gets worse.
As the problems multiply,
so does the need to create more teams of humanized-minds,
so do the number of job postings.
People are first enticed via these job-postings.
And the "qualified" ones are then, literally,
thrown at the problems.
A life doused in problem-solving is not seen
for what it is when one plunges
headfirst into it.
It instead shows itself as some
great promise of progress, becoming successful,
and "Aah, I am finally having things lining up for me".
But dear friend, this is your master Mind at work.
Because over time the
mish-mash of work problems,
relationship problems at work,
relationship problems in relationships,
financial problems, health problems, and the
many other problems born because of escaping
these problems, has their sanity being
pushed to beyond its limits.
The result?
Time and again,
over and over again,
they allow for their own impregnation
with the abomination that they are inherently not -
a jittery and fearful humanized-mind.
Thank you.
