It's not enough to be "the third thing". There are so many possible third things that at times different people's proposed "third things" end up being almost exact opposites of each other. The vibe of being "the third alternative to escape the binary" is appealing, but it has to be matched with the right substance.

One other thing that worries me is how a lot of recent SV tech rhetoric is much more nationalist than before. Ensuring "we" win the global competition. People being tribal is inevitable and can sometimes be channeled toward good, but it's not the sort of thing you want from a global technological vanguard community. I much prefer the old SV that idealistically identified itself with the progress of all of humanity. One reason I really appreciate crypto is that I think it still has that spirit.

I love Costco but we need much stronger regs regarding factory farming. You’re telling me you hatched a chicken, raised it from birth, butchered, transported, and rotisserie’d it for under $4.99?

In a free economy the government has one simple but hard job: make (value captured / value created) stay between 0 and 1 everywhere. When it's below 0 you have unrewarded (or unpunished) externalities. When above 1 you have scammers or rent seekers. Many such cases!

Feels like a bad time for free speech. - In US and Europe, there's a growing gusto for suppression of "misinformation"/"disinformation"/etc which often turns out to be correct later... - On the flip side, here's Trump casually shitposting that the news "must be licensed". What in the third world? In this environment, permissionless media & credibly neutral sources of ground truth will keep getting more important. Only way out is through. https://x.com/TrumpDailyPosts/status/1843976221639442878
