I have 2 foil drives for wake thieving and a SUP for downwinding and I’m just excited that someone on HN is talking about foiling. Such an underrated sport.
I went to a tech founder conference recently and it was quite jarring given the current state of startups to see no lecture or discussion of ethics of products people should be building. It was all focused on demands of PE and delivering profit, no matter the moral cost, not a minute to stop and get a broader systemic reality check. “It turns profit, it must be good”. Not sure how we collectively combat these dominant forces of privacy violation, attention demands, and mass exploitation.
Nice, this is what I’ve been working towards and reaping the benefits of for the last couple of years. Getting my ski days in the winter and foil surfing time in the summer. I love having low hours, with the few hours I’m spending building things being very intentional and feeling more rewarding.
I got a vasectomy a number of years ago in my mid 20s with 0 kids. I exist to experience things like love, hydrofoil surfing, skiing, and the journey to try to do more of these things. There are many people or trained models that could say I have a wasted existence of sorts, but the universe’s ending will always be the same no matter how many times the power dynamics on earth and beyond shift.
Yes, but your attention rapidly loses value the more that your subsequent behavior misaligns with the buyer’s desires. In other words, the ability to target unsuspecting, idle minds far exceeds the value of a willing and conscious attention seller.
What are some predictions people are anticipating for V4?
My Hail Mary is it’s going to be groups of machines gathering real world data, creating their own protocols or forms of language isolated to their own systems in order to optimize that particular system’s workflow and data storage.
