Homesteading the Noosphere

I could write another one about the harm of self-deception in believing that we have truly “selfless motives” (despite all the psychological and behavioral evidence to the contrary). I could write, but I don’t need to, about destroying “altruism” and reducing it to clearly unconscious self-interest (and various other shortcomings aside), as Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche and Ayn Rand have already done quite admirable work on Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche and Ein Land have already done some very fine work.

From the moment capitalism is able to create a surplus of wealth that allows many programmers to live in a culture of giving in the post-rare age, the industrial capitalist mode of soft production is ultimately destined to lose out to the competition.
