@jp_koning Sunlight is a disinfectant is a core part of the pitch. 1/
@jp_koning Narrowly, that means not just one regulator or law enforcement agency, but all regulators, law enforcement, research, and civil society agencies, domestic and foreign, have full access by default, without any procedural burden, friction, or resistance. 2/
@jp_koning More broadly it means that the character of the “place” is public, that it’s not a natural but a nervous fit for the kind of transactors who are adversarial to regulatory concerns. It credibly signals these products are not “HushCoin”, and do not want to be. /fin

In a war, you don’t fight all your battles at once. You concentrate your forces and win discrete victories. You avoid opening unnecessary flanks. 1/
In a class war, the “pay fors” people are not trying to help, not trying earnestly to work through policy conundra for the good of the nation. 2/
They are trying to multiply and tightly couple the political battles policy insurgents must fight, to create a multifront war a failure on any of which means defeat. 3/

Until now, the professional-class liberal view of Trump's China tariffs has been derision: Yes there are legitimate grievances that shld be addressed. But the tactic of tariffs is mutually destructive and economically illiterate.

I think Hong Kong events may be changing that. 1/
The new story is that economic engagement with China has not only failed to yield a more democratic or liberal society there, but that it has corrupted our own society. 2/
In this view, China's authoritarian government wields powerful carrots and sticks over US companies which themselves wield social and political power we increasingly perceive as dangerous. We are subjects of behemoths that are in the pockets of China's autocrats. 3/

this is attractive, because it’s fun to blame the not-plutocrat-but-still rich class.

It’s not my fault that the work is not done!

I always watch out for people who would not take responsibility for the end result and want to keep such people at bay.

So does everyone who has the experience of handling a team, a business, or any responsible position.

There are two kinds of people out there - some of them have learned how to get things to work,
And there are those who can give you impeccable reasons for why things did not work.

I try to find how can I make things work when it is not supposed to work, and I have made a career out of it.

Part 1(thread)
The psychology of leftcaths and papal positivists:

There are two groups typified by former mainline protestants and former hard leftists, with a fair amount of overlap. Either can be cradle Catholics who are responding to similar problems, however.
2 So, for the first group typically from an intellectual and mainline protestant background see that their denominations are going to hell. Part of the issue is that findings in science, and changes in political culture require heavy revision of traditional interpretations of
3. scripture and tradition. However, in practice this is a very slippery slope. Ultimately, cafeteria Christianity ends in a kind of Moralistic therapeutic deism. Anyone who wants to maintain some semblance of true religion wants to avoid this.

One of the things we look for in Founders we invest in is a deep understanding of networks & network effects (nfx). In the internet age, this is such an advantage that we made it a core part of our investing thesis. It's why we're called NFX @nfxguild.
Companies with network effects are the most highly valued because they produce increasing returns. But it's not easy to get network effects going. Today I want to share 19 of the top resources for understanding & building networks and defensibility.
1. First up is psychologist Stanley Milgram's study on the "small-world" phenomenon from 1967. This study showed empirically that any 2 people in the US have a surprisingly few degrees of separation (a median of 6). Empirically speaking, it's a small world snap.stanford.edu/class/cs224w-r…

One week ago, #thisisourlane exploded on Twitter. At the request of may, here's a tweetatorial to address some of the most common questions and answers about the epidemic of #gunviolence - why it matters to docs - and what we can do about it:
***Q1: What are the patterns of #gunviolence injury and death in the US? ***

A: 100 people die and 200 are injured each day across the US. Most deaths (~2/3) are suicide; these are mostly white middle-aged men from rural areas.
Approximately 30% are homicides: mostly young minority men from inner cities. The rest are accidental and mass shootings.

#DomesticViolence deaths from firearm injury are estimated at ~50/month.

And firearm injury is the 2nd leading cause of death for American youth.

Indian law protects women from all kinds of domestic abuse. To know more about the provisions of Protection of Women Against Domestic Violence Act, 2005 read our explainer: bit.ly/2CMVlfS
PWDV Act, 2005, gives a broad definition of what qualifies as ‘domestic abuse’. It includes physical, sexual, verbal, emotional and economic abuse. Section 3 reads:
The Act provides for a ‘Protection Officer’ to help you through various processes under the law. This Officer can help you file the complaint, tell you about your rights, make an application to the Magistrate for you, etc.
