      I know some people don’t like the last, but think it’s good when groups of people profit from providing an enormous social good, like scalable clean energy, or carbon removal. That's capitalism operating as it should, to serve the social good. I hope it does here.

      Of course, the flip side: there’s damage already being done, and likely to be incredible damage done.

      We don’t yet have institutions or norms that enable us to deal with problems where inaction over the next few decades may cause much of an ice sheet to melt a century or two from now. I hope we can develop such institutions and norms!

      Marvellous. Seems that other people are getting this too. And other people on twitter are complaining about it in their threads - apparently random deletion of tweets.

      Apparently Twitter is shadow-censoring these tweets for a lot of people. So here, I'll post a screenshot of this content that is so bad that Twitter has to censor it silently. This platform is becoming super-compromised. pic.twitter.com/4TPy6paLLA

      Twitter's brand is all about the creative form of ephemerality. This chaos monkey feature has much to teach us about impermanence! A new kind of meditation, integrated into our social space!
