Time and time again, the public has been shown to have zero idea of what innovations will be consequential.
Yet people seriously still believe an economy run by the public would be a good one.
Such a delusional belief system.

This is literally true. Even like a year or two ago, a lot of progressive people were just calling Starlink sky pollution with no redeeming value.
5 years ago: Starlink is such a stupid idea. Anyone wasting money investing in this Musk scam deserves to lose everything.
Today: Starlink is essential to the defense of an invaded nation. Access to Starlink is a human right! Nationalize it!

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon warns America has created its own economic problems through bad policies on housing, healthcare, immigration, and business: “We just can’t deal with reality anymore.” 🇺🇸
“We’ve screwed up as a nation. Bad policy around housing, mortgages, affordability, healthcare, immigration. We’ve messed up so many policies.
I write about it. It’s time to fix them.
We’ve driven half the companies out of the public market. What are we doing? Why did it happen?
We just can’t deal with reality anymore as a people, because we want a simple answer to everything.”

FT comments never miss.
I don’t think I’ve read such a rational analysis of the situation we’re in for a long time.
I've been in France since 2002 and have never seen the streets so violent nor the politics so extreme. From the sacking of the supermarket on my street to the prospect of Présidente Le Pen, here's me @FT including thoughts from 2 French Nobel laureates as.ft.com/r/addcad57-0f9d-4e…

Realistically speaking this is probably the greatest villain design in like the last 30 years. I truly cannot think of anything that, A: looks so fucking good, and B: is so heavily elevated by the context of the story

Whenever we decode whale languages and their accompanying regional dialects it’s gonna be very fun for the general populace to learn we’ve been sharing Earth with essentially equally-conscious “aliens.”

we're in the part of the AI supercycle where founders are pitching startups to create infinite ai pain and "get acquired by anthropic to make us stop" as an exit strategy
