Silicon Valley Canon, Day One: (This is from yesterday’s reading because I am 100% /slowcore-hq) I find this collection of scientists and their backstories fascinating. To have grown up in a small Hungarian village, watching your parents create opportunity through their own efforts—and then to watch as that society crumbles, or worse, to be Jewish and watch it crumble on top of you and everyone you love. I also find myself jealous of them, in a weird way. I’m so hungry for knowledge, to have intellectual rigor foisted on me so I can see what my mind is capable of. I want to be surrounded by incredible teachers, and the opportunity to test myself and discover new things. Nothing is holding me back from giving it to myself. Maybe this class is the beginning of my hermit scholar era 💅 Thank you @phil! I am so impressed with the care and intelligence you’ve put into this curriculum, and incredibly grateful for the opportunity to be a part of this.

I also loved that component! So fascinating to think what causes intellectual greatness to arise from shared political and economic circumstances Good thing we have the internet for the pursuit of infinite knowledge :)
