Blockchain Blasphemy and the Technological Antichrist

• The greatest threat to good programming, human freedom and humanity itself is the love of technology just for technology’s sake.
  • There is no shortage of visionary programmers who can imagine niche uses for novel technology. But unfortunately for these people “Can I?” is a common question, but “Should I?” is fairly rare.
• Pride and lust for power are the true motivations of many visionary programmers.
• In our godless age, this power naturally breeds a kind of worship from godless people. It provides not only a pseudo-divinity, but a new arena for a new objectivity that out-classes the skepticism of post-modernity.
