 Capitalism produces the [worst imaginable technology](capitalist_software.md), and rewards people for [being cruel to others](entrepreneur.md). It also inevitably leads to societal [collapse](collapse.md); in capitalism people own nothing and become wholly dependent on corporations which exploit this fact to abuse them. This is achieved by [slowly boiling the frogs](slowly_boiling_the_frog.md). No one owns anything, products become services (your car won't drive without Internet connection and permission from its manufacturer), all independency and decentralization is lost in favor of a highly fragile and interdependent economy and infrastructure of services. Then only a slight break in the chain is enough to bring the whole civilization down.
 
-The principal problem of capitalism lies in its **primary and only goal of self-benefit**, i.e. maximization of capital, combined with the fact that the environment of free market is a system with **Darwinian evolution** which through natural selection extremely effectively and quickly optimizes for the given goal, i.e. profit, on the detriment of all other values such as well being of people, sustainability or morality. In other words capitalism has never promised a good society, it literally only states that everyone should try to benefit oneself as much as possible, i.e. defines the [fitness function](fitness_function.md) purely as the ability to seize as many resources as possible, and then selects and rewards those who best implement this function, i.e. those we would call sociopaths or "dicks", and to those is given the power over society. In other words we simply get what we set to achieve: find entities that are best at making profit for any cost. The inevitable decline of society can not possibly be prevented by laws, any effort of trying to stop evolution by inventing artificial rules on the go is a battle against nature itself and is extremely naive, the immense power of the evolutionary system that's constantly in work to find ways to bypass or cancel laws in the way of profit and abuse of others will prevails just as life will always find its way to survive and thrive even in the worst conditions on Earth. The problem is not that "people are dicks", it is that we choose to put in place a system that rewards the dicks, a system that fuels the worst in people and smothers the best in them.

+Software framework is a collection of tools such as [environments](environment.md), [libraries](library.md), [compilers](compiler.md) and [editors](editor.md), that together allow fast and comfortable implementation of other software by plugging in relatively small pieces of code. While a simple [library](library.md) is something that's plugged as a helper into programmer's code, framework is a bigger system into which programmer plugs his code. Frameworks are generally [bloated](bloat.md) and harmful, [LRS](lrs.md) doesn't recommend relying on them.

+# Library
+
+Software library is code that's not meant to run on its own but rather be used by other programs. A library provides resources such as [functions](function.md), [macros](macro.md), [classes](class.md) or [constants](constant.md) that are normally related to solving some specific class of problems, so e.g. there are [GUI](gui.md) libraries, [audio](audio.md) libraries, [mathematical](math.md) libraries etc. Libraries exist to prevent [reinventing wheels](reinventing_wheel.md) by only ever implementing the code once so that next time we can simply reuse it (respecting the [DRY](dry.md) principle). Examples of libraries are the [standard C library](clib.md), [SDL](sdl.md) or [JQuery](jquery.md).
+
+If a programmer wants to use a specific library, he has to first [install](install.md) it (if it's not installed already) and then *include* it in his program with a specific command (words like `include`, `using` or `import` are commonly used). Then he is able to use the resources the library exports. Depending on the type of the library he may also need to [link](linking.md) the library code after [compilation](compiler.md) and possibly distribute the library files along with his program.
+
+You will often hear a library as a certain [API](api.md) -- this is the interface of the library consisting of the elements via which programmer uses the library, mostly the [functions](function.md) the library offers. If a programmer wants to know the library API, he wants to know the names of the functions, what [parameters](parameter.md) they take etc. Sometimes there may be multiple libraries with the same API but different internal implementations, this is nice because these libraries can be easily [drop-in-replaced](drop_in.md).
+
+In a specific [programming language](programming_language.md) it IS generally possible to use a library written in a different language, though it may be more difficult to achieve.
+
+We generally divide libraries to two types:
+
+- **[static](static.md)**: The library code is embedded into the executable of the final program so that the library files have to be distributed along with the program. This is more convenient and also makes sure the program uses exactly the correct version of the library. But of course this results in bigger executable, and if we have multiple programs that use the same library which is statically linked, each program will have a [redundant](redundancy.md) copy of the library code, wasting memory (both storage and [RAM](ram.md)).
+- **[dynamic](dynamic.md)** (also *shared*): The compiled library code resides in a separate file ([DLL](dll.md) on [Windows](windows.md), [.so](so.md) in [GNU](gnu.md)/[Linux](linux.md)) which may need to be distributed along with the program, but this one file can be shared among all programs that use the library so the compiled programs can be smaller. It may also be easier to update the library to a new version by simply replacing the compiled library file. RAM may also be saved as the dynamic library may be loaded just once for multiple simultaneously running programs.
+
+Many times a library can have both static and dynamic version available, or the compiler may allow to automatically link the library as static or dynamic. Then it's up to the programmer which way he wants to go.

 - There are many funny stories from [4chan](4chan.md). In 2012 they made masses of Justin Bieber fans shave their heads by spreading fake news that Bieber had cancer under the hashtag #BaldForBieber. In 2013 they made a similarly funny prank by making Justin Bieber fans cut themselves with another faked campaign #CuttingForBieber. In 2013 they made a huge number of Appletoddlers destroy their [iPhones](iphone.md) with fake ads that promoted a new "feature" that makes the phone waterproof via a software update. Similarly in 2014 they spread fake ads about a new iPhone "feature" that would let users charge their phones in a microwave. 4chan also hijacked many internet polls such as the Mountain Dew's poll for naming their new drink in 2012: people from 4chan raided the poll and chose the name "Hitler Did Nothing Wrong", with names such as "Diabeetus" or "Soda" as followers. Another raided poll was that of Talor Swift about at which school she should perform -- 4chan mass voted for a school for deaf children which eventually won (Taylor Switch handled it by donating money to the school). 4chan also chose North Korea as a country for Justin Bieber's tour. Another hilarious story is from 2006 when 4chan raided the Habbo Hotel (a MMO game mostly for children); they made shitton of black characters with afros, went around blocking players from accessing game areas, grouping to form swastikas and famously blocking a hotel pool with the sign "Pool's closed due to AIDS".
