I dig the web3 vision, but we're never tokenizing like buttons if they cost $30 in gas to click.

While still immature, I believe web3 may represent another phase-shift in this trend.

Web3 also unlocks new levels of permissionless innovation, further compounding the overall trend.

So don't get too distracted by the pump-and-dump shenanigans, or you may miss the opportunity to break the hegemony and see the dawn of a new age.

The last few hundred years can be viewed as a transition from the rule of persons, to the rule of systems. Democracy and capitalism are canonical examples.
This trend continues to steepen as we move from policies to algorithms as the dominant encoding.

Living organisms are equilibrium-resisting systems formed via evolutionary process. This is also true of corporations, for whom humans are like cells.

Not colouring the collared undershirts here feels like a serious missed opportunity.

I got turned away from a weed shop the other day for forgetting my ID. I forgot my ID because I no longer carry a wallet to make payments.
Now is the time for this. Especially since we're going to need to verify vaccination status regularely.

I spent lots of time discussing A/B testing with @AliDinani when he was head of growth @CareGuide. He def knows what he's talking about.
A bonus tip: express A/B test results as two ranges (eg A: 4-7, B: 3-5). It's way less deceptive than avgs p-values.

This implies that being a better cooperator, rather than just a better competitor, is a major source of selection pressure in capitalism. This is true in evolution too, btw.
