I am sad that NFTs are apparently the least bad (as in: being used by people) solution to real symptom, the underlying problem of which is _capitalism as it is practiced right now totally sucks_
ie people need money / need ways to spend less money / basics are incredibly expensive in the US eg housing, healthcare / social services are non-existent

Living is hard and everything is becoming a hustle & financialized
Worst is the creation of a new layer of middlemen who look, broadly, just like most of the last middlemen who’re for extraction and pulling the ladder up.

This is good: we met excellent Enterprise Architects and resources who can help over the past 9 months.
Spoilers: you’re going to feel uncomfortable. But it’s a feeling, and it will pass. Practice makes it easier. Sounds like a cliche but also true.

New newsletter episode!

s09e20: Event Horizon, Cars And Trucks Shall Never Meet; Accountability; Snow Crashing - chapter 15
newsletter.danhon.com/archive/s09e20…

You can support my writing by becoming a subscriber through Buttondown.
This episode:

* A brief overview of the horrific car crash of the UK Post Office’s Horizon IT system modernization project
* More on Apple’s iPad problem, which is that they’ve decided it’s not a Mac, and we should probably accept that
* Snow Crash recap: chapter 15
The Snow Crash recap in particular goes into detail about the CIC Library, what a world without UGC looks like, the difference between an information economy and an attention economy, and assumptions that go into uploading vast quantities of “garbage data”.

omg is the entire nyt op/ed quitting and changing to substack
“Editorials will still be called editorials, but articles written by outside writers will be known as “Guest Essays,” a title that will appear prominently above the headline.”

aww, not “Guest Substacks” or “Guest Mediums” or “Guest Blog Posts”
