Proof of Stake, Vitalik Buterin. I haven’t read anything of his before. It’s a collection of articles, essays, and posts over time since the start. So far, so good!

'Radical Technologies: The Design of Everyday Life' by Adam Greenfield

Started reading The Road to Unfreedom:

“…Trump’s own reaction to Zelens’kyi’s election in 2019 was telling. He stopped weapons shipments to Ukraine in order to force the new president to help him in his own election campaign. When this came to light, Trump was impeached for the first time. Aware that he was likely to lose in 2020, Trump began to prepare the way, that summer, for an attempted coup (as I argued at the time). Trump’s greatest gift to his patron Putin was his attempt to stay in power even after he was decisively defeated by Joe Biden. Russian propaganda was overjoyed by the images of Americans on January 6, 2020, invading their own legislature in the attempt to overthrow the American constitutional regime. It set a precedent for the use of violence to overthrow democracy that Putin followed in 2022.”
