i did several hours of research before doing this pod with @ericjorgenson 1. The history of publishing 2. Distribution of profits and how it shifted from the 1800s-1900s 3. Publishers being slow to embrace new ideas (paperbacks, 1950s) 4. Why authors lose in all modes of publishing 5. How many famous authors got rich (retaining rights) 6. The "flippening" of publishing from hardover first to digital first 7. Predictions https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/paul-millerd-profits-in-publishing-why-self-publish/id1549324835?i=1000674876686

X is a wild place now. Trump cult level 10/10. More broadly talking to friends I suspect there’s a shy Kamala voter effect happening because people don’t want to engage with the Trump followers

Work is still such a weird thing. Most people don’t want to say how they think about it publicly. It seems like there was a bit more openness about it in 20-22 but even thought leaders in this space mostly talk about other people’s stories

interesting comment on my last piece in some ways remote work has been eating office work for a long time. the pandemic accelerated some of this when I was working at BCG I often ate lunch along 90% of days because no one went to the lunchroom. we all worked on separate teams, and everyone was always in "grind" mode
