@paulg @lulumeservey I think this pinpoints it. We need to move away from engagement-farming. It erodes common sense in so many cases. It turns people who are usually pretty reasonable into one-sided caricatures.

@lulumeservey The sad thing is, I don't think they even care whether their attacks work or not. It's just a bunch of random individuals hunting clicks.

Another Wired backfire What the anti-tech media fail to understand is that their attacks only make the tech community stronger and more united The more inane the attack, the more it energizes its targets Morale is through the roof right now

My favorite part about DOGE is how one of the guys will be some kind of insane prodigy who decoded the Herculaneum Papyrii at the age of 20 and the hit piece author’s bio trying to take him down is like, “associate staff writer for general topics, hobbies include having a cat.”

@AlexHormozi I'd use a Hormozi social app that partitions users into "seasons" based on demonstrated accomplishments.

You’re not behind. You’re just in a different season than the people you’re comparing yourself too.

@khushkhushkhush As someone outside of the scene, I've always wondered about the proportion of startups that are purely performative. Ie) cosplaying as a startup and lucky enough to be funded. Or is the selection pressure strong enough to weed all of those out?

lot of founders that are actually building dystopian art projects and not startups, but unfortunately they are part of the art :/

@getpaidwrite Don't forget a dimly-lit wood-paneled study containing books and a sturdy wooden desk.

@arithmoquine Interesting application of morality to digestion. We should be punished for eating that which we cannot digest. lol.

artificial sweeteners don't make sense to me. it feels like divine law that gluttony should be punished, yet most zero-calorie sugar substitutes don't even give you cancer. very suspicious that we're allowed to do this

@MichaelAArouet A little scary what this means for the actors and production teams, but super stoked about wide distribution of the ability to make feature length movies.

@radshaan Any examples other than clean desktop v. messy desktop? Does it go deeper than propensity toward categorization vs. lateral thinking?

@JonHaidt Yes, and the stimulus-response-rewards incentivizes continued use. Perhaps even remodeling of communication. Moving toward communication that maximizes rewards, away from open honest communication that reflects earnest thoughts.

If half your day is spent using screens that gives you continuous rounds of stimulus-response-reward, your brain will adapt and the other half of your day will become more boring. This may be why boredom is rising among Gen Z, and test scores are falling nypost.com/2025/01/29/lif…

Happy to discover that "self-discipline" is just picturing your Future-self as someone you love and taking care of them

@Memetic_Theory I think I’d take on more side quests if I was compensated in gold coins and enchanted loot. Why would I help someone collect a loaf of bread from one town over if I didn’t think I’m getting at least a potion and some scrolls?
