Excellent conversation! #technoptimism ❤️👏 Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
White liberals have a bad habit of thinking they alone hold moral superiority, and via their virtue signaling woke nonsense push that nonsense onto the rest of us. Kudo's to Marc for realizing this rather than capitulating to it.
This is such a great & needed essay! 🥰 It’s a long read so we recorded an audio version for those who would rather listen: https://youtu.be/hlAuN7Fj2_Q
Military organization of basic research and large projects is a fourth model, though I would put it under government organization. The first two models are commercial and social. We have plenty of traditional nonprofits, not to mention modern crowdfunding platforms, that can support non-profit efforts and maybe even organize large projects.
I think you two should do this every week! These talks are great.
Whenever Ben smiles I feels that a devil is coming to get me 😅😂
Zero risk on nuclear? Maybe give it a 1% given Chernobyl?
100% agree on when China went back to central planning they did lose
For instance I was working at Nokia in Beijing in 2008 and China was pushing its own 3G standard called TD-SCDMA and guess what happened to it?
Never really look off
Few devices
A mess
Finally 4G unified the world under one standard and it really made everyone more of a winner
Marc and Ben show the only show worth watching on the internet and it is free! Better than Netflix 🥰
This seems like a great podcast. Is there a way to hear it in Spotify or another Podcast app? I can't seem to find it. The A16z podcast does not show this Ben & Marc content. Maybe it's for YouTube only — anyone know?
Great manifesto!
"I don't think it is easy to forecast these things"… meanwhile the whole conversation and recommendations in this entire hour+ is based on false assumptions made because these billionaires who are entirely out of touch with the real world. Terrible. Best thing these guys could do for the world today would be to give away all of their money at STFU and never speak again. The world would be a better place.
Can you please have the intern create timestamps for the different sections? Thx!
2:20 I prefer the term "Champagne Socialists"
Hahahhaha, the article is a joke.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. It helps me get a more accurate view of the world.
Does not matter if he's self made, he is a scam pushing all this web3 stuff. Admit that you're wrong, and move on.
I agree theoretically with a lot of what you guys say but you seem to have never heard of communist (East) Germany. There was NO unemployment and they discovered it with the fall of the wall. They all had a descent life, healthcare etc…
That is why there has been a lot of nostalgia of the communist time when 20% were unemployed in the 90s 2000s. There’s even a name for it “Ostalgia”. (Ost = East in German)
I've been mining truth from being a poor kid with victim minset to trusting institutions and then to being a suspicious hippie about institutions cuz everything seemed wrong… But everything seemed wrong because I could imagine something better. It seems to me like you're part of the bedrock… I really wonder what is exactly this magic technology mentioned at 27:21… and why, if it is magic, it is not public as a product people can touch yet… . -.
Excited to watch this one

Beautiful! We at Nouns News aim to be The Techno-Optimist network! You go guys! 💪❤
