Good list! Largely agreed, there’s the in between private/semi-private URL but I think it’ll increase connect to hyper-IRL too. You’ll have to tell me what you’re tinkering on :)
What a thought provoking piece. I wonder about consequences the media-machine superorganism has on human capabilities, specially memory and imagination.
I absolutely love this post. It’s something that’s been nagging at me but you’ve put into words. when our very words get fed into the *machine* then what we’ll get in return is what we give. it’s a self-fulfilling loop of magnanimous proportions. giving 1984 vibes…
Fascinating! I’m Harrison, an ex fine dining industry line cook. My stack "The Secret Ingredient" adapts hit restaurant recipes (mostly NYC and L.A.) for easy home cooking.
Another classic. Wouldn't remove a single word.
In terms of social organizing, I believe we are bifurcating into Hyper-URL (Slop Economy) and Hyper-IRL ("Unmodelable Edge").
• Hyper-URL: doomscrolling, AI GFs/BFs, Twitch/YouTube/IG/TikTok Streaming, Discord voice channels for memecoin trading and gaming
• Hyper-IRL: run clubs, speed dating / singles clubs, Othership / Coffee and Chill, DJ pop-ups at random locations, meditation/psychedelic retreats
Hyper-URL and Hyper-URL may also converge now:
• New York Parks, especially Washington Square Park

• Balaji's Network School / State
• Bryan Johnson's Don't Die Summits

too early to call but it’ll certain enable an erosion of both if we outsource effort
Really superb ethical questions here. Top-notch writing!
The question of not what can scale, but what should ... that's a simple but good one with hints of Nietzsche's eternal return.
meanwhile Meta announcing AI friends
The march continues, no stopping it only getting smart about it
Dude, this line - meaning must market itself to remain relevant - what a gem.
🙏 never felt as true tbh, most of talking about meaning now is marketing it

yep except it’s like personal data that’s collected, anonymized, remixed and spit back out to us. same story but more powerful than the last 25 years
Another requisite for the builder:
Prioritization.
How you manage scarce resources matters more than ever now.
Very true
Thanks for building on the heavy piece. Your words will have a profound effect on the younger generation (via my job)
Coming soon! 🙏
Another banger ⚡️
🙏 First comment - lmk if there’s something I should consider writing about, or a question you have (might do a Q&A soon)!
Write whatever you want to, it’d turn out great anyways :) I’ll await Q&A then!
