Introducing W.I.T.I
"Everything is actually deeply meaningful. And we live in a time when almost nothing is. [Though it is not true] that things are meaningless, it is that we decided things are meaningless. And we are just wrong about that" ~ Christopher Ruocchio ☆ This book is not objective or unbiased. Nor is it a one-size-fits-all. I hold a belief that the human species is quite young in an evolutionary timeline. Granted, with nuclear arms and bioweapons, it doesn't take much imagination to consider we may d...

the little things that end up meaning a lot
largely a fan of goodalexander’s digital figure hallucinations & entropy documentation, i depart from his thesis in what may be an unintended, yet implicit, assumption that the current generation of “public figures” is the final instantiation of this new archetype in digital markets (more figurative than literal). materially insignificant, potentially, across time they end up in completely different markets. no proclamations are being made on which thesis is superior or which future more like...

Enthropology: Anecdotal cyber experiences may lead to a digital anthropology field
Enthropology (n):A soft science that examines human experience and culture through the systematic collection, analysis, and contextualization of anecdotes, recognizing subjectivity as a critical lens in the internet age. It posits that data emerges from countless individual stories, and when nuanced effectively, these anecdotes reveal meta-patterns about collective behavior, beliefs, and societal trends.Enthropology Research NotesOriginally this paper was going to comprise of a personal inqui...

Redefining Technocapitalism for a Post-Tokenized Internet
Technocapitalism, especially the version forming in the blockchain, ownership software, fintech, public goods world, is an interesting amalgamation of ambitious software development, innovative socialist principles, and free market capitalism, all tied into computers, codebases, smartphones, applications, and people who have been people throughout the test of time. It’s also an immature philosophy in terms of its tenure and market participants, with the oldest among us in the mid-40s and the ...

Eccentric-Led Protocols and Systems
This paper targets the idea that developers or dev-minded people in the space lack imagination where users are desperate for ‘innovation’. I believe the developer-minded, zeros-and-one-minded, won’t agree with this opinion generally. Why it feels worth claiming, at least in this paper, is they are the ones who have the firmest grip on capital allocation and network effects in the industry. If you inspect enough VC decks, pitches, Twitter threads, Twitter spaces, blog posts, etc., you realize ...
