Re-teaching myself that a life I enjoy is well-spent. No higher meaning or profound purpose necessary. So much of my depression has been based in the idea I’m wasting life if I’m not doing something *big.* Joy is big. Love is big.

Critics of crypto say they have no real value & its true for most shitcoins. But 99% of VCs and start-ups extract money from the system without creating any value. Without constant funding from investors they’d be insolvent in a few months. Which is worse?

This year I learned that there is no"smart money" A16z, Sequioa, Chamath, Tiger, Tribe Capital, Coatue, Softbank, Paradigm, Ark, 3AC, Alameda, FTX, etc.. all made terrible financial decisions, at huge size. and yet - most will get richer.

Leveraging creates no actual value but is a tool for extracting value. Leveraging against a balance sheet artificially inflated by a token that is easily manipulated is fucking absurd. Every crypto exchange is insanely vulnerable bc of this. Good luck. $ftt $bnb #BNB #FTX

High speed rail is not profitable. Transit is never profitable. Pretty much everything that makes life better and the earth more livable is not fucking profitable because what’s most profitable is causing problems and then selling partial solutions hope this helps :))))

The idea that New Zealanders randomly invented the 2% inflation target is ~true, but not the full story. The full story is even more fun. A thread.

Think what you want about Snowden and Russia. He did an immense public service by exposing mass surveillance programs that multiple courts later found to be unconstitutional. The newspapers that happily collected prizes for their reporting on the abuses should say this clearly.

I am not right wing or left wing. I am a human being who listens, empathizes, learns, and thinks. People want to assign labels to each other so they can judge without trying to understanding a person. Labels lessen our capacity for empathy and free thought.
