Ex Machina was amazing. Remember that most people who do or make something extraordinary only do so once. Maybe the guy just had one great work in him. Alternatively, maybe he's letting ideology get in the way of his talent.
Sometimes I alternate between Bing and Yandex. They're both better than Google because they don't hide things from you, so you get what you're searching for faster. Indeed, I hadn't realized how much Google attempted to manipulate me until I tried non googlified alternatives. I trust Yandex more than Bing merely on account that Russia has less utility for my info.
Perhaps when you make yourself rich and everyone sings your praises, you can't help but conclude you're special. It's only natural to think so, with the objective proof of the fruits of your efforts plus the world's positive feedback. And so, filled with good intentions (and a lack of humble virtue, the key mistake in that situation), you set off to improve the world against the will of people who don't know better.
Humility is the most important virtue, and its opposite pride is the worst sin. Through lack of humility, initial charitable efforts can be perverted by interests on self-assertion, legacy, power, and so on. Good intentions and pride can be mixed confusingly from the beginning, or charity can be but a self-excuse for the pursuit of titanic pride. Humility is the key. People go bad without it.
Enough with the "deafening silence" argument.
