The Importance of Being Aware

We should be aware that we are not aware, but this is impossible.

There must be a historical reason for this, but would be long and complicated. Because in five hundred years we have changed so much.

We have to be satisfied with observing how we are (a demanding task) and how most people cannot do this,

The struggle to do this creates a crisis in many people's lives and is a cause for our high rate of suicide. People are trying to find meaning in their lives but failing.

I am reading The Updated ACM Code of Ethics, that carefully overlooks this. Computer people are concerned with ethics, but their concern only goes so far.
