Every being creates their own stack of decisions throughout life and thus creates their own path and identity. That is the point of living and breathing with sound discernment.
If you derive satisfaction primarily by adding to that which others have created you are practically denying the development of your own point of view. Contributing incremental improvement solidifies someone else's point of view within you.

The future belongs to those who are willing to sincerely and diligently apply themselves to the best of their abilities in every detail and all situations at all times. You will set yourself apart from others because you are striving towards something.
You entrain your body and mind with the patterns you enact every day. Your body and mind can handle anything within reason. The type of patterns you entrain depend on your vision, beliefs and physical activity.
You cannot foster or mandate diversity with good results as you will impose your vision of diversity. You must allow diversity to bloom by following functional opportunity (skill or ability based) criteria when making decisions.

First there was Aspect Oriented Development Tools. Now there will be Point-Of-View Oriented Virtual Software Development Workspaces.
There is always a solution to a problem. You just cannot see it yet because you lack wider context. Seek more context to stabilize your approach.

We realize that part of our own imagination which we act out in our own daily lives.
The "differences" are called "diversity" and diversity allows creativity which leads to disruptive technologies. A singular vision/system for everyone (vs diversity at every level) is simply an iterative time-delayed spiral into hell. xitter.cf/coindesk/status/966750…

If you run out of ideas your creativity has dried up because your imagination is stagnant because your perception is closed. Open your mind by doing something different and observing how it feels.
A skill mastered today will provide food in future.
There is no honour in trying. Honour comes from applying yourself to the best of your ability. Always.
Systems break down if they overreach or insufficiently model functional reality.
There are two primary approaches to solving a Problem by creating a Software System: Imperative vs Declarative System Composition
Declaratively constructed systems only work when they follow principles. Without principles there is no focus and everything diffuses: Codebase, business logic, team effort, enjoyment, excitement, momentum ...
Are you engaging in pain avoidance or habit adjustment?
Software and the internet can enlighten you or pull you into darkness. It is your responsibility to choose the Light. Always.
Your own point of view is the only thing you can have that is unique to you. Cultivate it relentlessly.

First we built software tools for business and the world changed. Now we are building tools for software developers and creation dynamics are changing. Next we will build tools for sovereign individuals and reality on earth will change.
