It’s because, while those environments were materially constrained (we had fewer choices), they yi... See more

It’s not that there’s some metaphysical concept of beauty that rules the world — beauty is a human experience. It’s something that has to do with how humans react to the world and perceive the world. And it’s notoriously thought to be subjective, but it’s not entirely subjective. There’s a very rich history of art objects and music and what people ... See more

As I said, most companies and most interviews focus more on the question: can this person do what we need? But if you’re trying to recruit the best talent in the world, it needs to start with them. Who are they? What do they love doing? What are their ambitions? How does their past shape what they want for their future? What are they insecure about... See more

- You stand together, sharing identity. You come together, across your differenc
Generative Engagement
I see this so often at the end of life. People who still try to handle things themselves that they clearly can no longer.
