@hacks4pancakes Every now and then I remember that I've literally robbed banks without them noticing and shut down power plants. I just did it in a beneficial context.
Morality and ethics are not weaknesses to be overcome, they're a quality and goal to be celebrated. I think something about the last decade has caused a lot of people to lose sight of that.

@hacks4pancakes mostly for me it’s a chronic inability to focus on anything that doesn’t excite me, and invariably the things required to become filthy rich don’t even slightly excite me.

@hacks4pancakes right? If there were a legal way to convert smarts straight into money, we'd be doing it my dude.

@hacks4pancakes it's a question between integrity & conscious vs. capitalism & big money ... Always

@hacks4pancakes I occasionally wonder how much more successful I’d have been if I didn’t have a conscience because sociopaths of a certain demographic seem to do so well

@jamie @hacks4pancakes even if I didn’t have a conscience I’d still have ADHD. At least with the layer of ethics I can feel good about some of the deliberate choices I made.

@hacks4pancakes and we thank you for it.
These new AI tools have often spawned the discussion of... If I had no morals I could be very rich.

@hacks4pancakes i will also say after living on the streets for five years to having raised two debt free grad students, its never been about money / the desire to accumulate money and wealth is not universal

@ra6bit @hacks4pancakes yeah if I lacked empathy and morality I could be very well to do. Lot harder making money when you care about people and the work. Especially when you can see and care about stuff no one else even seems to comprehend when you draw pictures.

@hacks4pancakes I know exactly why I’m not rich. My brain is wired such that it goes into fight or flight when corporate ideology breaks my personal ethics. Which is why I typically get angry and vocal first, and then I quit after my stress level hits the roof — usually right before bonuses are paid out because my timing is the worst.
