A bad day for #SBF but even worse for #EA. Is this #ultilitarianism as psychological cover to run a #Ponzi scheme?

“The math couldn’t be clearer. Very high risk multiplied by dynastic wealth trumps low risk multiplied by mere rich-guy wealth. To do the most good for the world, SBF needed to find a path on which he’d be a coin toss away from going totally bust.” @AdamcFisher

.@harrydelano: Did you run the computer consultants program at SUNY Buffalo back in the late 80s/early 90s? If so I am looking to contact you...
Never worn a leather jacket made of fungi? Soon you might be! @MycoWorksInc cofounder Philip Ross is creating bricks stronger than concrete, Hermès bags, and furniture out of his mycelium material. Read @AdamcFisher's piece on the eccentric artist: trib.al/HEIY0X3

Whoever bought Breath, wrote about it, talking about, and all else--thank you. Very much appreciated. We debuted at #6 on the New York Times Bestseller List, #4 on the Los Angeles Times Bestseller List, and #10 in the Wall Street Journal.

Friends: I'll be on Fresh Air with Terry Gross today talking about things Breath. And, yes, she's really as insanely pleasant and cool as she sounds. For Friscaniscos, that's 1pm on KQED (for others, that's other times on other NPR affiliates). #breath #lostart #riverheadbooks

NYC is where you go to get rich playing zero-sum games, and SV is where you go to get rich playing positive-sum ones.

The NYT of 1990 and the NYT of 2020 are very different, but one thing they share is that they've both looked at Silicon Valley through the lens of their own obsessions. They don't get that SV is on another vector entirely.
