.@mer__edith tells @cpassariello, “VC's require hype to get a return on investment because they need an IPO or an acquisition … You don't get rich by the technology working, you get rich by people believing it works long enough that one of those two things gets you some money."

Fascinating discussion yesterday of the #SantiagoBoys #podcast, with @evgenymorozov and comments by @CeciliaRikap @Jackstilgoe @rainerkattel
Lots of good for thought
If you haven’t already listened to the podcast, do it. Definitely worth it!
Planning for Project CyberSyn was a democratic form of planning with both workers and managers having a say in the process. This contrasts with the present economic planning that takes place within large corporates today that concentrates decision-making among a select few.

“Harm” figures a lot in policy. It’s contentious. Similarly in #competition cases: harm to consumers, competitors, democracy etc.
I’ve got a forthcoming publication on this.
