Conservatives: It’s hostile to my values but it’s (convenient, entertaining or high quality)so I’ll keep giving it money.
Progressives: it’s not actively supporting my values so I’ll engage in strategic, long-term efforts to align it with my belief system.

The people most certain they are doing “good” are probably doing evil.
The people concerned they are doing “evil” are probably doing good.

The #NoCode tools are about to obliterate a lot of admin level white collar jobs.
If you are in your early 20s right now, go learn some No Code tools like Bubble or AirTable.
You’ll thank me in 2-3 years.

Bo Burnham’s new NetFlix special is a genius work of generational significance.

A shocking number of discoveries, theories, and inventions we take for granted today were once fringe and their proponents were attacked, fired, blackballed or (go back far enough) killed.
The point?
Look for the voices in the wilderness and critically examine their claims

A unique aspect of COVID is that everyone believes their way of handling the pandemic has been rational and effective.
Not one bit of doubt in anyone. No lessons learned. No updating beliefs based on new information.
It’s the ultimate example of cognitive dissonance.

The post-modern hero’s journey:
1. A technocrat develops a savior complex.
2. He/She/They implement a plot to “save the world.”
3. Plot goes horribly wrong and he/she/they fight “heroically” to cover it up.
4. Cover up works and he/she/it sign a book/movie deal.

I won’t hold my breath for Miami to name a street after Ron DeSantis but it should.

Another objective metric of the phenomenon Miami has been leading. Everyone needs to understand the rate of disruption continues to accelerate. Cities and states that were on top can lose quickly if they fail to listen to their customers and producers…

What @BretWeinstein is doing is intellectually heroic.
The recent guests on his show are intellectually heroic.

Government officials making speeches about how crypto is a ‘huge waste of resources’ is the equivalent of Tim Cook making a speech about how Android is just waste of time and money...

Critical Theory is a religion for people who don't consider themselves religious but can't shake their heart's desire for moral objectivity, purpose or redemption.
It's has a concept of sin but no Christ.
It should be taught in school as a worldview but not THE worldview.

After NFTs we’ll have NTFs: nontransferable, but fungible.
Example: a college degree in computer science.
Better example: an on-chain cryptocredential earned for solving a single exercise.
Non-transferable because can’t be sold. Fungible because all did the same exercise.

Movies like Cruella are blurring the lines between heroism and villainy, explaining away evil as the mere result of psychological trauma and undermining the foundation of Western concepts of justice.

I note that as someone who thought Joker and Breaking Bad were great stories.
But I watched those as an adult and those movies were not geared toward kids.
The anti-hero has a role in culture (we’re all the anti-hero’s of our own story) but it’s becoming the main story now.

Societies are the manifestations of the stories they consume nothing more.
Our society no longer has heroes.

It’s funny. When NPR reps call and ask my business to contribute or sponsor they don’t seek so skeptical about the benefits of capitalism. Weird.
