“Your book is called The End of History? So you obviously must mean that history is literally ending? Or are you just referring to one specific context of political change and want it to sound cool?” “I want it to sound cool”

The two options presented here: 1. Wonkish technical minded tax policy 2. “Memetics” But the actual reason for this is that Trump is just rewarding his base. These are exactly the people who tend to to vote for him

Yeah it’s interesting. Less about tv specifically and more that path dependence is very strong mentally so it takes lateral thinkers to bring new things

Interesting part of internet history is that a lot of people were convinced the devices to interface with the internet were going to be TV’s with these weird clients that used TV’s for display. In the late 90’s there were a few of these from startups and big legacy telecom companies. General Magic (PBUH) did one with Viacom I think called web TV that got sold to Microsoft and eventually became MSN -> MSNBC

Realize this could not be any less specific but I recently saw an SEO on Twitter talking about a way to do this, maybe with GSC, but I think it was a third party tool, possibly one they were making themselves

The Eurocels are absolutely right about this one. Before you post you need to ask yourself “what would my shareholders think?”

The ratio of “discussing the debate” to creating shareholder value on here is disgusting. You need to log OFF and get caffed UP

Sure those kinds of things can just be accounted for in questions it asks you. And yes that’s what I mean, the Harvey AI thing with PWC is for training their own tax analysts, not a B2C solution that would harm PWC and others

If you’re PWC I get why the focus is on assisting tax professionals but regulatory capture is the only reason it would stop there. Why would the UX not just get so good you can use it as a complete layperson

The most likely driver of actual tax reform that I can see is not legislation. It’s open source E2EE software you run locally that does everything for you with precision and maximum deductions based on prompts it gives you. Seems technically feasible but there would be heavy lobbying to make this illegal.

There’s social awkwardness which is one thing (also normal imo for the average person to act this way in his position) But there have been other things like when he was talking to Trump on the phone and his son is talking about Pokémon and he was saying in his head “son would you shut the hell up for a second” which are what I’m referring to here

Like this guy doesn’t even understand how to process “Moon should be a state” and filter it into an existing type of thing he can understand (not even necessarily in a bad way) https://warpcast.com/micsolana/0x4e36c2f1
