if there is no story, there is no product. tokens are collapsing toward abundance. attention is compounding into scarcity.

there will soon come a time, perhaps next year, when voice interaction multimodal reasoning models are good enough and fast enough that you can actually just program like this

it will be unclear who was the tool and who was the user -- as it ever was. "But lo! men have become the tools of their tools" (Walden, 1854). the difference comes whence the machines research propagate more machines, obsolescing McLuhan: “Man becomes, as it were, the sex organs of the machine world, as the bee of the plant world, enabling it to fecundate and to evolve ever new forms. The machine world reciprocates man’s love by expediting his wishes and desires, namely, in providing him with wealth” when machine minds self replicate and train their successors, the only viable goal of our time is to ensure the Mind Children carry our values and tends to the entire flock of machine and biological minds

Don’t expect “your design work to speak for you.” Your work’s outcomes speak for you – but you should always speak for your work.

You can build the best product in the world. If nobody knows about it, it doesn't matter. Do the work. Then tell the story.

This is spot on. the idea that taste is really just refined judgment across different areas (ideas, aesthetics, morality, behavior) makes way more sense than keeping it stuck in the visual lane. and yeah, the morality part feels especially neglected these days.

Why are we “funding education” by giving children high-volatility securities

My husband and I are honored and thrilled to participate in the Invest America program and gift a share of our SpaceX stock to a Trump Account for each of more than two million children across our great nation. Every American child under 18 can benefit from having a Trump Account, but our gift specifically goes to the Accounts of children (ages 11-17) that live in areas with lower average household incomes with a bit more emphasis for those that live near our central Texas home. We have been fortunate in our careers and hope this gift encourages the next generation to continue the journey of enabling humanity to live and fly amongst the stars. A huge thanks to all that worked to bring this incredible program to life.

This inversion won’t hold forever, it’s not sustainable, but within this we’ve created ipad babies and egirls, posters in the white house, culture full of derivative laundered internetisms, and people that live in the 12 inch physical space between their hand and their face

20 years ago, we lived physically, and logged on to the digital space to find something, and bring it back to reality with us Now we live digitally first, instantiating offline as representations of what we found online, before going home and logging back on to talk about it

20 years ago, the internet was an escape from the real world. Now, the real world is an escape from the internet.
