I wrote about the Bo Burnham special and how it captures something true about the online condition: There is no universal experience other than the fact that you’re having a deeply consuming experience of information overload that feels universal. warzel.substack.com/p/bo-burnham-a…


Jeeeeezus! I can't think of a worse problem to try and apply VC funded hyper growth too. The answer to the question no one asked; "What's the engagement metrics on lynch mobs?"

Internal documents, messages, and roadmaps show how crime app Citizen is pushing the boundary of what a private, app-enabled vigilante force may be capable of. trib.al/0UCjHMP

The real trick is to work long enough at startups to experience what they're like and to learn from it, but not too long so you're burned out for life. This middle ground is like two months, so good luck!


Having been on a smaller scale version of this in the past, I can not even imagine the amount of stress the people involved are under. Really informative thread that that’s really triggering for me 😬

Alright folks, gather round and let me tell you the story of (almost) the biggest engineering disaster I’ve ever had the misfortune of being involved in. It’s a tale of politics, architecture and the sunk cost fallacy [I’m drinking an Aberlour Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch]

The Shitty Tech Adoption Curve describes the process by which oppressive technology is normalized and distributed through all levels of society. The more privilege someone has, the harder it is to coerce them to use dehumanizing tech, so it starts with marginalized people. 1/
