Bonhoeffer’s Theory of Stupidity: A Tool for Control?
Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a theologian executed for resisting the Nazis, had a haunting insight: stupidity is more dangerous than malice. Why? Because stupid people can be manipulated without knowing they’re being used — and worse, they often become fanatically loyal to ideas they don’t understand.
Bonhoeffer observed that stupidity is not a lack of intelligence but a moral failure, a refusal to think critically. And this, he warned, flourishes most in times of social upheaval and under authoritarian regimes.
Why does this matter today?
Because those in power — whether governments or media empires — often rely on this passive obedience. It’s easier to rule a population that feels informed but doesn’t question narratives, doesn’t challenge contradictions, and fears being isolated for thinking differently.
True resistance doesn’t always start with shouting — it starts with thinking. And that’s exactly what oppressive systems try to prevent.
Bonhoeffer’s warning wasn’t just about Nazi Germany. It’s about every society that starts silencing thought under the guise of unity or safety.
Critical thinking is not rebellion — it’s responsibility.

Приклад того як використання тулів в яких ви не розумієтеся та ще й без перевірки може призвести жо суттєвих проблем в бізнесі.
Ось приклад тексту що я написав для минулого поста, своїми руками без ШІ.
Перевіркана багатьох сервісах, що наче заявляють що вони можуть відрізняти ШІ контент, показав що текст сгенерований.
А тепер уявіть що ви використали подібний сервіс для фільтраціх кандидатів, чи контрагентів? Уявили?
Як людина що не один рік працював в Machine Learning, можу вас запевнити, що майже будьякий контент, шо не написаний дуже погано буде роспізнаний як ШІ. Саме тому що завдання ШІ писати якісно. А тому подібні тули не більше ніж кидок на бабки.

🚀 As i always say - every business steals.
Here is a typical example of "innovation". The company used the design of Mig-21, to build new 155mm shells. Nothing new, nothing created from scratch. Just old technologies that worked put together and tested.
Also SpaceX rockets were developed in the same way, they just couldn't be built because at the time of when they were created there were no computers capable of such computation.
Almost all things that you think are NEW, were created ~50years ago

How to control uncertainty during System Design
In engineering work, we often have to make decisions while considering potential risks or the probability of certain events. Unfortunately, we rarely have enough data to obtain precise statistics that would let us make decisions with complete confidence.

🔥 День релізу апки для догляду за тваринами настав!
Ще рік тому дуже хотів подібне зробити, але через купу проблем в сімʼї нажаль був вимушений відкласти проект.
Але пройшов рік, контракт закрили, а тому зʼявилося трохи вільного часу, щоб зробити корисну річ яка реально потрібна багатьом притулкам і волонтерам, да і простим власникам тваринок.
І ось сьогодні нарешті реліз.
Одразу скажу, що на Flutter пишу вперше, а тому якихось нюянсів можу не знати. Саме тому дуже прошу усіх в кого є тваринки встановити собі апку та спробувати.
