Agreed on both points (framing & crypto take) Really love the analysis of the cycle and the thorough examples used. Is this just an inherent flaw of ad-driven revenue models + capitalism? Is this solved if the revenue model is customer subscription?
Awesome presentation by @v on the ENS Town Hall. Specific time link here. https://www.youtube.com/live/iKXtWaVn-tM?feature=share&t=7051
“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”
Groundbreaking. It’s gonna be awesome. The largest stick we’ve ever lit. To the moon 🫡
Do I have to be the guy who says "True Romance"? Because Floyd smoked the second page of the letter?
I remember making the assumption one day that Facebook had reached some sort of escape velocity, and that it would never be just another MySpace.
Awesome proposal. It'll be cool to see the splash this makes. Thank you @greg and @ripe and nouns for contributing to the ecosystem like this.
Look at either Seveneves or Fall, both by Neal Stephenson. I often give them as gifts. Or, if you're really looking for a commitment, dig into the Revelation Space universe by Alastair Reynolds. It'll change your life. ;)
Adrian Tchaikovsky is awesome. The Children of Time series is one of the most insanely creative premises I’ve read in years. Highly recommend.
Would be great if we had to specify a value that determined the frequency/strength of conflicting opinions in our algorithmic feeds. It would force a conscious choice of “full echo chamber” for those that prefer it, or allow others to choose more diversity of opinion.
Standing in a circle with 9 other people that agree with you while you discuss how wrong everyone else is does nothing to actually further your cause.
Sometimes posting in a discussion forum feels like a moment from a childhood slap game… like slowly sticking my hands out but knowing that they’re about to just get absolutely rocked… 😂
Yep. And, I think we should expect Apple will change on this more. History shows they do, but always slowly. ex. 3rd party maps in Carplay (Waze) or Find My network opening to 3rd parties.
