Listening to @eugenewei's podcast with @patrick_oshag. Eugene is one of strongest proofs to me of nondiminishing returns on talking longer with same person. So will will consume all talks with him until he produces infinite talkshow/Avalon video series
Oh haha our dinner was referenced. no better dinners than small groups where conversation can sprawl in all directions
We need so many more series that are defiant ones style. Wish we had stronger culture of this. Now that cost of production falling so much
Before I leave meetings with Eugene from now on I'm going to have him take photo with my dtc Avalon sets
Dre spotting Eminem is so venture. Crazy to me we haven't seen larger scale analysis comparing all the different fields with venture type Dynamics. And their evolutions

Leaderboards and feeds turning local to global s curves still so underrated. And relevant to current China ecosystem
Should we be concerned Eugene isn't paying his taxes now that he no longer tweets about it annually??!

Glass steagal for tech is frame around tech that I'm super interested in debates around. Or more generally how we understand commons with highmin scopes
