What’s coming into focus more gradually is how bad things are getting for those of us in the audience, too . Something that’s long bothered me and Erin about the hegemony of streaming is that if you do away altogether with physical media, you put yourself at the mercy of corporate accountants (who might decide there’s insufficient R.O.I. when it...

less services for media access means a flattening of culture (barbelled between mono-culture and mega niches online? irl?)
A lot of times I allowed FLORA to just let it rip, and even if I hated the outcome → it gave me a thing to edit. So often in creative work, momentum is the name of the game, and FLORA really shaped my sense of pace to keep pushing towards an end state rather than getting lost in decision paralysis of how I should prompt what’s going to be a...

First is the observation I’ve made throughout: that people are building companies based on ideas from the 1950s and 1960s.
This is a very real thing. Earlier this week, I met with Tyler Hayes at Atom Limbs to see the robotic prosthetic he and his team are building. After he slipped the cuff on my arm and as we were waiting for the system to boot... See more

The main thing I keep coming back to is that nothing flourishes in isolation. Neurons first evolved around the same time that animals started eating each other: that is to say, the fact that we have thought at all emerges from an evolutionary necessity to be aware of the presence of other animals. That doesn’t mean intelligence has its origins in... See more

4. Wallerism: Crypto, via stablecoins, is good for the dollar
Flipping over to the Republican side of the aisle, but remaining within the establishment, we have Federal Reserve Governor Chris Waller.

Technical knowledge based on science has replaced military and theological knowledge as the source of power, but the distance is not as large as you might think. In modern technocratic power, the distinction between hard-edged scientific knowledge and softer ideological paradigm knowledge is blurry. We have... See more
