Then, at your new job, you see garbage code and wonder what dumbass would put global variables everywhere

I wish the world was better at just giving a ton of money to science and space. It's such an obvious use of money, if you ask me.
Especially since the future of humanity, given that we survive, is in space. There is a lot of potential for space-based infrastructure.
If a train fails, at worst that will happen is it will stop. When a space station fails, the worst that will happen is everyone inside dies.
In addition, a space station is far more expensive, and it may be simply too expensive to still maintain old technology. Ideally, at some point, one will replace it with a newer, more modern, space station. Which will both be cheaper, and allow more, novel, science to be done. Although I don't know if there is any plan for that.
I'd like to see a space station with a rotating ring, that generates artificial gravity through centrifugal acceleration.
The best solution would be no cars, yes. But it takes time to change over from car-based infrastructure, and the environment gets damaged another way. If not from lithium mining, then from mining and burning fossil fuels.
It does feel nice to embrace your body, and like, make it more "your own". It's kinda like expressing your autonomy over it.

And it's wonderful
Being a deviant is a lot of fun
It kinda shows the dominance humans have over the planet. We affect nearly every part of it. Nearly everything is light up by our lights.
To the point where it's visible from space. From space, it's as if we have altered all of the night's topography.
When it comes to stuff like implants, it's FOSS or nothing! (Or state-based medical devices if we're being realistic)
I already do, but that's completely missing the point.
Donating isn't enough to solve the issue, and, moreover, it puts all of the onus on the good-willed people, which is just super convenient for you, isn't it?
No, everyone needs to contribute to a better future. Such economic individualism is what caused these problems in the first place.
It does! I want to be taxed more to help others in need, and for the betterment of all.
Except that's exactly what it is allowed to in algebra.
Sure, in most equations you solve in early algebra school there is only one possible value for the variables. But in many equations there can be multiple, or even infinite. It's an unknown, and the contents can vary (depending on other constraints, ie. The rest of the equation(s)).
