I wonder if there would be any interest if I did an AMA here? AMA

Author of INTROSPECT and FRIENDLY AMBITIOUS NERD

working on my essays, I’m trying to figure out how to convey a fresh way of seeing/being that people find incredibly compelling, for culture to reorient around. “Friendly Ambitious Nerd” is in the correct ballpark but not the full picture, I’m still missing something. Iterating

What's the most interesting intellectual question you're trying to answer right now?

I think I could comfortably-ish take on 10x, maybe 100x the power I have rn. I mean it will be a challenge but I think I’m well-prepared for it. But I’m not in a rush to seek it out, I simply continue my training and receive it as it comes

You’ve said before that you’re afraid for having too much power before you’re ready/worthy of it (sorry if I’m misrepresenting you)

How close to ready do you feel today? How “on-pace” do you feel?

life isn’t static, whether you’re in trouble or not depends on your willingness/ability to steer away from unhealthy extremes imo

Realized recently that I fall pretty hard on the "excruciatingly meaningful" side of your scylla/charybdis classic.

According to your framework, such as it is, am I in for trouble?

in some sense my big dream all along has been to build a truly fantastic media organisation. I’m doing a 1-man version of it for now. it’s not worth formalizing beyond that because the unit economics doesn’t work, needing to pay $ etc distorts the incentives (which is why no really amazing media org exists)

I think you believe something along the lines of -- "it's [too early] / [too naive] for you to build or join a formal institution along existing models (startups, governments, cooperatives, etc)

What's an institution you really long to build, but you have to tell yourself "it's not worth it, atm", and why?

it’s messy, I don’t know. FC right now has some good vibes with optimists etc but it’s also inevitably kinda closed off for now. My favorite thing about Twitter is (was?) how global and universal it was. Sad to think that there may never quite be another Twitter when it declines. I’m still clinging to it

How are you thinking about the evolution of social networks? What do you like about FC and what other Twitter alternatives are you exploring with what current conclusion?

nope… messed around with it a little bit. Can be useful to generate casual responses but not that useful in surfacing novel and sharp edges directly.  Indirectly via random-ish association, sure, but I’d rather just chat with friends

have u started using gpt to complement your writing

What do you not like about FC experience so far? Or what more do you think is possible on FC? 

I'm looking for ideas to build on top of FC ✨
