when Alexander asked Diogenes if he wanted anything "Yes," said Diogenes, "stand a little out of my sun." Alexander was struck by this, he admired the haughtiness and grandeur of the man "But truly, if I were not Alexander, I would be Diogenes" - Alexander same thing herehttps://twitter.com/pants_leg/status/1017214722246991882 …

blind spots bad law makes hard cases

It’s the people you block who are the blind spots. The genius sees the widest expanse & the mob tries to reign him in (see, Galileo & Socrates). I reject “bad law makes hard cases”, it’s a later iteration (corruption?) & so anti-Lindy. Most likely invented for subversive ends.

Why would I want to increase blind spots ? Instead of acknowledging them. Implying Lindy is even applicable to twitter domain is my point and a fallacy of Lindy as a concept itself. Smash your phone and burn toilet paper if you reject all that is anti Lindy.

1. The people who make non-productive points are the blind spots. These people are the ones to block. “The cold passion for truth hunts in no pack.” —Robinson Jeffers. Most people, motivated by envy or will to power, seek to distort the truth or your insight.

2. Lindy applies to Twitter at the meta-level of the conversation or discourse; it so happens that the medium widens the scope of the conversation to the globe. Toilet paper is probably Lindy. “Phones” no longer exist, so anti-Lindy. iPhone nothing like phone circa 1980.
