The “benefit” of world hunger is that it keeps people locked in their place and entrenches the status quo. This is actually true, and the author believes it, but he doesn’t like it.

So it should contain all finite patterns an infinite number of times.

There’s a particular joy to going all the way into the office so you can sit in remote meetings all day. Really makes you feel like your time is valued.
