  • Personally, I’d much rather have never been born than be as neurodivergent as I am. We all exist without our consent, and I think preventing disabilities and neurodivergence in our children is no more unethical than having children in the first place. I’d never make the decision for people who already exist, I know some people consider it a part of who they are and I wouldn’t want to change that. However, with hypothetical offspring, they aren’t anybody yet. You can’t take away part of a identity that doesn’t exist.

    What scares me is the idea that having neurodivergent children could be outlawed. I think neurodivergence does bring a lot of value to humanity as a whole, and while I don’t think there’s anything egreiously unethical about an individual preventing it in their child, the idea that a government could have that much power over how we have children is absolutely fucking terrifying.

    This is something I’ve thought a lot about. I hope you appreciate my rambling or at least don’t find me inconvenient to ignore

    Fucking goddamn I’d love to have a replacement to fusion 360 so I never had to touch windows again. FreeCAD is just awful, I keep coming back to it and keeping finding new issues with it. OpenSCAD is cool and useful for simple stuff, but it is not performant in the slightest and the lack of ability to fillet or chamfer edges is insane. Blender is great for 3d modeling but doesn’t work well for engineering modeling.
