An observation now that I’m in a few DAOs and channels: compared to a startup, it’s unclear what the priorities are and how progress is being made against those priorities.

Maybe that’s not the point, but strong believer in you are what you measure.

As someone who doesn’t believe that you are what is measured, this is one of my favorite things about DAOs.

I hesitate to project my experience with a few organization types onto the full possibility space of human organization. I think DAOs can successfully shapeshift to the whims of active members—which spans the space of personality types. After all, you are writing about contentiousness here, correct?

Big difference between individuals and organizations :)
