Paramendra BhagatAmazon Was Web 1
Amazon was a bookstore. But it was not Barnes & Noble digitized. You still got physical books in the mail.

Web 3 wants to disrupt Amazon, and Google, and Facebook, and Microsoft, and Apple. Ye...
Paramendra BhagatDefeating Putin In Donbas Is The Cheap, Easy Option
As I follow Zelensky in this war, I am constantly reminded of this book I read just a few months ago. At that time there was no inkling of Putin’s invasion. I read the book because I am perennially interested in Abraham Lincoln’s life and work. Lincoln was not even a soldier. It was not a war he had chosen. He became a student of war in the White House. And because his instincts were right, and he stood on the side of justice and liberty, he seems to have made all sorts of right war moves. If...
Paramendra BhagatTo Seek Only A Military Solution Is Dangerous
In eastern Ukraine, to seek only a military solution is dangerous. I admire the work of military strategists, intelligence officials, and governments who have stepped into supplying the needed hardware. Most of all I admire the brave men and women of the Ukrainian military who make the ultimate sacrifice daily. But we can never lose sight of the larger purpose and the higher ground. Ultimately this is about peace, liberty, and justice. Eisenhower warned of the “military-industrial complex.” H...

To go from Zero To One is where the action is. A rocket does not start as a drone, or a helicopter, it starts as a rocket. A rocket pre-launch is still a rocket. It just is not moving yet. But the motion is all there, bottled up, just waiting to come out.
Afore gets it. Afore has polished it. It leads in the only space that really matters.
Not for the faint of heart to get geography agnostic. Afore has a standard sheet. And so you can trust. The details are not an art in the hand of the negotiator. That negotiation is porridge.
