> One of my biggest lightbulb moments in systems theory class was realizing that even humans who may never directly interact within the scope of your design are very much still stakeholders
Exactly, very true. It is funny.. a couple years ago and inspired by @aral tooting about it, I started practicing avoidance of the word "user".
This now comes very natural to me, to the extent that so many uses of the word really poke me in the eye with how artificial, unnatural, distancing, and yes.. even inhumane they are.
#CodingIsSocial #people! We "social code the social code" of #society.
"User" is a #tech word, same as "Reverse proxy" or "Factory class". And its a leaky #abstraction that serves to lose all #nuance, and is best avoided. Furthermore it implies an #ownership relationship between devs and their captivated audience, that doesn't, shouldn't exist.
I'm behind schedule on a #ParadoxOfEmergence blogpost, may address this.. https://discuss.coding.social/t/sx-sustainable-ecosystem-evolution-see/836
Ditch use of #user! ✊

Absolute power is partial to simplicity. It wants simple problems, simple solutions, simple definitions. It sees in complication a product of weakness — the torturous path compromise must follow.
Eric Hoffer (1902-1983) American writer, philosopher, longshoreman
Passionate State of Mind, Aphorism 88 (1955)More info about this quote: wist.info/hoffer-eric/79289/

New essay: “Whiteness & Trump: Numbers, Myth, Symbol” is live on Substack.
I’ve pulled the final certified data from the 2024 election, broken down race & voting, and explored how symbolic language traps us — forcing us into roles rather than letting us live in truth.Dive in: https://wittgensteinsmonster.substack.com/p/whiteness-and-trump
