    Conclusion from Don Hoffman's "Illusion of Reality": An organism that sees reality as it truly is, is never more fit than an organism of equal complexity that sees none of reality and is just attuned to fitness payoffs. In other words, seeing the truth will make you extinct.

    One example: could ’s 30M followers somehow get us to Mars faster? Tools for directed, collaborative work by really large groups on the internet are still in their infancy.

    I've been doing yoga for 15 years. I'd noticed I think better after it, but I didn't realize it had lasting effects on brain structure.

    Painters look at a painting upside down to notice flaws they've gotten used to. When you're writing something, you can get a similar effect by changing the margins.

    The best relationships are peer relationships. When given power over others, our ego justifies it by assuming we are smarter. Better to have people work with us than for us. Better motivated on the wrong thing than unmotivated on the right thing. Debate rather than dictate.

    We’re about 20% of the way through this century. The technological story of the last three decades has been the Internet. It’ll likely drive the next decade as well. Kind of amazing. A permanent revolution.

    The most interesting part of ’s interview at is she firmly endorses automation — treating it as a chance to eliminate jobs that are drudgery and sever survival from wage-earning. Automation is a chance to draft a new social contract that doesn’t link dignity to labor.
