the amount of doublethink and newspeak this is attempting to push is remarkable
also afaik thiel isn't one to regularly demean himself to writing tidbits such as this, is he? I don't recall seeing nearly as many words from mr likes-it-private as I have from andreesen et al
we regret to inform you that mullenweg is still posting through it
no matter how unhinged you may expect this to be on starting to read it, you're probably guessing low
holy fuck :|
Multinational corporations can act ethically after all.

eyelid twitching
sure, we barely understand all applicable bio systems, let's have some shitty model dream up answers on how things work! it'll go great
