I have a confession. I have used the phrase “push the limits of human potential” unironically — and I would do it again. This ad is almost like someone took many things I find important and tried to completely embarrass them. This clip is deeply embarrassing for us all. The only blessing is that it looks so poorly produced. Who directed this? A child?

This was a great piece in the FT. Canada has to third biggest proven oil reserves in the world, with basically the same population as Saudi Arabia! Saudi Arabia is an interesting comparison though: both countries are dominated by an inhospitable climate and immense natural resource wealth, but wildly different political institutions. Are Canada’s really set up to be a global power? It’s technically partly still a British colony!

The best philosophers are never primarily philosophers. They are authors, economists, researchers; they spend their time amongst the human condition rather than behind a desk

The core principle of status as a service is that social media platforms make you do work to earn status, and this is how they grow. But isn’t this falling apart? The essay mentions Prisma: a photo filter app that was too easy, and the tech too good. Hello TikTok? In both cases, the emphasis is not on any one user, but how tech can turn mediocre inputs into top tier outputs. Indeed, vertical videos platforms are full of automated faceless videos which don’t take much work (hello @fun) The best content is still handmade, but is the correlation from work to status still there? Modern social media platforms succeeded despite disconnecting visible work from success. With this link broken, how can social media still be about status?

Superpowers step back when it’s in their interest. The Cold War is full of events like these.

When people tell me something is going end up as one extreme or the other, I usually conclude that we’re likely to end up with a distribution around the middle The world doesn’t change that much that fast, and it’s too tempting to think otherwise
