Comment Comment by kushalc No, my point was to make meaning -- not trivial stuff.There's lots of non-humanitarian efforts that create lots of meaning:* Facebook, helps me stay connected to my friends* Etsy & Kickstarter, empowers artists around the world* Reddit & HackerNews, lets me find stuff about topics I likeThere's also lots of humanitarian stuff that's just pretty pointless.But folks can build some pretty amazing things and I wanted to poke the emperor on that. parent kushalc 14 years ago
There's lots of non-humanitarian efforts that create lots of meaning:
* Facebook, helps me stay connected to my friends
* Etsy & Kickstarter, empowers artists around the world
* Reddit & HackerNews, lets me find stuff about topics I like
There's also lots of humanitarian stuff that's just pretty pointless.
