It's also why I think the left can benefit from deepening their understanding of emerging tech, rather than rejecting it outright. Not necessarily for hacking purposes like this, but to both survive in the modern world and shape accountability and outcomes.

My attention span is just gone. In the studio, recording a 2 min 7 sec snippet of sound, I had to hit stop at the end to get the reverb tail correct... It took 3 tries because I would be off doing something else by the time I got the end. My attention span is > 2 min 😢
