Second Hand Abandonment

When your grandfather abandons your father when he’s a young age leaving him unable to do the things that dads are supposed to teach you and since he never taught your dad he can’t teach you what you’re supposed to know about being a man.

Ryan doesn’t know how to use a hammer because his dad’s dad abandoned his father leaving Ryan suffering from second hand abandonment.

Second Singularity/High Transapient (S2) Technologies

Technologies emerging from intelligences that have undergone a second, even more profound leap in cognitive capacity, making S1 entities look simple. This tier involves mastery of spacetime geometry, creating stable wormholes for transport, manipulating gravity, and engineering consciousness at a fundamental level. S2 tech begins to look like magic, allowing for interstellar travel via traversable gates, the construction of ringworlds, and the ability to edit physical constants on a local scale.

Second Singularity/High Transapient (S2) Technologies Example: A S2 Technology is a Stable Wormhole used as a subway between stars, a Matrioshka Brain (a Dyson Sphere computing substrate around a star), or a Jupiter Braincore that converts an entire gas giant into a computational matrix. These are projects of such scale and subtlety that their operating principles are opaque to baseline humans and even S1 minds.
