Decentralized Social
Back in 2022, when Twitter was sold to Elon Musk, I tweeted this:Twitter is too important to be owned and controlled by a single person. The opposite should be happening. Twitter should be decentralized as a protocol that powers an ecosystem of communication products and services.So began my departure from Twitter which ended up in a complete departure in May 2024 when I wrote this post. I've tried all of the decentralized social protocols, Lens, Bluesky, and Farcaster and have been most acti...

Fight Lizard Brain
Starting in February, I'll be attending Network School for four months. It's a startup city in Malaysia with a few hundred founders building and living together. Some friends and family find this crazy. Why leave a job that's been good to you, a city you love, friends you enjoy? Why go somewhere you know nobody with no guaranteed income? Because I want to be around builder energy and I want uncertainty. Certainty is a mirage. It's the belief that because something happened before, it will con...

Explain Yourself
Most AI policy initiatives insist on AI models being explainable. While this might intuitively sound like the right direction, understanding exactly why a given AI model did what it did is harder than it seems. We might need to shift our focus.

Negotiating leverage is everything
Back in the fall of 2006, almost twenty years ago, Sam Zell's Equity Office Properties Trust announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by Blackstone Real Estate Partners, in a transaction valued at approximately US$36 billion. This was a massive deal at the time, so much so that Sam Zell would later come to the University of Pennsylvania, where I was in grad school at the time, to talk to real estate students about how smart he was. The transaction closed in 200...

Mask Network Takes Over Lens: The Breakdown
Mask Network is officially stepping in as the new steward of Lens, taking responsibility for pushing decentralised social from infrastructure into real consumer products. After acquiring Orb last year, this move confirms one thing clearly: Mask is not experimenting anymore. They are committing. On paper, this is exactly what the Lens OGS have been asking for. This is not just a handover. It's a moment of truth for decentralised social, hopefully!

Teaching vs Placating
Teaching vs. Placating: The Quiet Shift That Changed Everything There are two very different ways to work with autistic students. One is to teach them. The other is to keep them comfortable. From the outside, those two approaches can look almost identical. A calm classroom. A compliant student. No complaints coming home in the backpack. But underneath, they are worlds apart. I learned that difference the hard way with my son Sheamus. When School Was a Place of Growth In elementary and middle ...

Alex Honnold is about to free solo Taipei 101
My palms are sweating as I write this post, because even the thought of someone free soloing a skyscraper makes me clammy. (Free solo means climbing with no ropes.) But that's what climber Alex Honnold is scheduled to do live, on Netflix, on January 23, 2026, at 8 PM ET. He will be climbing Taipei 101, which is over 500 meters tall, one of the tallest buildings in the world, and formerly the world's tallest. Dubai's Burj Khalifa stole this superlative in 2009 when it was completed. My palms c...

China has become a superpower and the United States is struggling with the accumulated debt of neoliberalism and global intervention. Russia is waging a war at Europe’s doorstep.

As introduced in the prior post, studying the interaction between “ought” and “is” permits a scientifically grounded approach to morality.
