Yes, I will get back to writing essays and interviews and such at one point this year. For now I’m just posting interesting things.
There are now more tech workers going from the US to Europe than the other way around.
From The Economist Very much related: how to move to Europe.
The most evil housing crisis in Europe. Exaggerated title, but building out the Dutch Randstad to a high density, well connected metropolis should be the number one priority of any Dutch government, local and national.
AI was supposed to free my time. It consumed it. This is pretty much how I feel about it. It is a time sink in disguise that makes you feel productive when often it does not. Which of course does not mean it is useless.
Ultrarobots and long distance running. Building the next generation of robots that operate in the real world is going to be very exciting, with many opportunities for wealth creation.
Steward Brand interview. Brand has a very Popperian outlook on progress. “We do not need to passively accept our fate as if we have no control over it. “If you like some scenarios better than others, you can be aware of the ones you don’t like and look for signs of them, and also look at signs of the ones you want to have come to pass, and lean differentially toward them. That’s how you negotiate your way into a future you were glad of. It’s done incrementally by, among other things, lots of individuals and some institutions, and that’s how we grapple our way, muddle our way forward.”
Are screens bad for children? I’ve been spending more time at home with my kids recently and there’s a huge difference between GOOD content and BAD content. There is so much amazing youtube material, you just need to research a bit for yourself and enforce. Better approach than the binary “screens on” and “screens off”.
