::Reflections on TNS Conference in Amsterdam::

🔲 Unsurprising Thing #1: 

It was the highest density of great content I’ve experienced at a conference, period. 40 speakers. Incredible quality across board. No Q & A's to waste momentum. Perfect time limits. Fast beats at transitions. Great organization.

1/n

🔲 Surprising Thing #3: 

Balaji’s Exit Poll survey was so f*ing smart! He’s explicitly searching to create a Values Graph within the movement.

It was also genius, imo, to pick particularly polarizing people/topics, since it’s useful to know what can bind us together, and what tear us apart.

fi/n

playing /bracket, assisting /bracky, talking /greatbooks

agree with most of your points. 
However the exit poll topics/personas seem to reflect a predominantly American culture/perspectives e.g. had to google US gun rights, Andrew Tate and a few other things.

Curios to know other opinions on this

maxxing on /morpho 🦋 | pursuing a higher self w /higher-athletics | consistently curious

/ted | exploring the onchain frontier | surfing @ venice, ca | eating @ gjusta / gjelina

still curious who these people are, but ofc a quick overview is not enough to form an opinion on something. So my answers were either n/a or 0. 
Mentioned this point in the broader feedback field too.

was answering N/A not an option for those? imo N/As are also an important signal as part of the survey and can a) highlight unconscious bias towards the US, and b) encourage the network state to shift to focus on more global issues or include EU-specific topics/personas.
