But after some time that I,um, "participate" in it, I can feel the lots of weird creative energy flowing in there, collectively. Not a thing we see often in today's world. It's quite rejuvenating, and crazy.

I'm sure problem most people face with digital note is discoverability, things that digital Zettelkasten method want to solve. Once it inside your app, it rarely comes out. You forget about it completely except from some of most-used notes or unless you have a strong system in place(which most people don't)

Also, what paper has and digital notes lack, is spatial connection between you and your note. You can guess or estimate where or at what position your note is in your notebook, complete with time context, while digital notes live in abstract oblivion...

Also, all those too much flairs and awards and stuffs somehow push me out of Reddit instead of bring me in. Maybe it's fun for younger generation though... I knew Reddit just about 5 years ago, and it feels more fun back then...

I agree that the ideal approach is talking like grown-up, educated people and not just shouting in face, but it also depends on who're you talking to and how firm their belief in something are, too. Some require a good beating with virtual baseball bat a few times for them to start listen.. :p

Amateurs seek new apps, novel idea, or that best trick that will cure all procrastination. I've been there, and still be sometimes, but much less now since the system began to click and taking shapes after numerous (failed)attempt.

(Well, that made me semi-amateurs I think)

Professional have their own system(usually simple and routinely) and run their life with it. My mom and her trusty pencil & notebook run our household budget for fifty years!(and still going) I can't imagine doing that without some Excel...

Although I'm sure we're all amateur at some point in life...

But what if, say, having guns increase the risk of being attack from bad guy instead, because now they feel that you're a threat to them?

...wait, THAT'S NOT MY FRIENDS!

I mean, you can press alt+tab quickly. But I like the simplicity of one button.

Also, please don't tell other people that they lack empathy straight in the face, that's plain rude, and hey,...sounds like lack of empathy :p

Sometimes I think the application of that word is way too broad, especially in business setting.

They host the Olympic, they seriously WANT everyone from every country to be in their country! and it's just can't happened right now.

If the situation is normal, and they refuse to let foreigner in, then we'll talk.

I can't imagine how one keep track of various website of interest. It's like they don't know better, or unknowingly think that Facebook feed is everything they need and no other internet outside it (It's understandable, I don't blame them)

Some people will called Seth have no clue about technology or don't know what's he talking about, blah blah, but I think this is more about human psychology & behavior(also, greed) than technology, like any speculation game. History will repeat itself regardless of technology.

My opinion about 'current' use of NFTs: what a useless way to use our world's power. But who am I to judge...

WAT.

I'm consider myself lucky to be born in the 'transitional period(1980s) I see the world of my parents and also have abilities to adapt with technology.

Then I think about those old European drawing(in the age of colonialism) of Asian country around 1600s. So outrageous when you see it today. That is not how my country and people looks like! Should we ostracize those too?

Point is, I don't think everything is intentionally racist. Ok, sometimes it is, but many time it's just the limited understanding of different culture(and the rush of deadline that you need to produce some imagery NOW)

Actually, every page on his(Arne's) website is ultra impressive.

Maybe I'm willfully ignorant, but I just don't see any practical use outside of massive speculation game. Mind give us some examples? :)

Open the app first time, you'll be greet by screen that let you choose which topics you're interested and who you want to follow. I just can't bring myself to choose, because I suddenly feel "Is this yet another "productive" things I have to do? Just thinking about it make me tired already.

I have new books I bought lying around that I hardly touch, Pocket article that I rarely read(yet I save it everyday) Tutorial video I plan to watch, etc.

My answer to myself is what I need is "quiet" time, not another channel to bombard the information(no matter how good it is)in your head. The information is overloaded already.

Again, some people seems to like it, good for them then.(Anyway, I like their app icon. :)

and companies exploit these things and make tons of money, sad.

That's why I usually ignore "breaking" or "trending" news, or consume it in very minimal dose. Too many speculation, weird theory, a lot of he/she/they said, and not enough truth or fact.

(Also fortunately my job doesn't involve having to follow all those breaking news or else I'd gone mad by now)

I personally think it's different. I'm not showing off type(and even the opposite) but I see how visibility of what you(or your team did)it is very important, because I don't notice other people's work outside of my team, either!:p

The Bezos and Gates example is just that, and example of famous people that we familiar with and that's it.

Chill man. Not everything is about race.

If you're thinking, writing, or planing(or anything with 'words' in your head or 'talk' to yourself), music with lyric is bad (though I found the effect more soften a bit if you listen to what you don't understand, e.g. foreign language music, still, zero lyric is crucial for thinking)

If your activity is not about words, but more 'action' (e.g painting , making art, gardening) then you can blast your ear with lyrics or the whole audiobooks all you want. It works great.
