i’m hopeful that people having these stable validations of their micro-worldviews might (paradoxically?) make them more comfortable embracing others. 🤞

after all, internet 2.0 is a giant externalized validation trap, who’s ML is/was too simple to do it better than tribal-level triggers, when irl most people happily live with lots of contradictory (hypocritical?) worldviews

And honestly having contradictory opinions doesn't mean you have to "balance" things 50% - 50%. The key is achieving equilibrium and that can be weighted and feel more like 70% - 30.

Balance creates mediocrity, and mediocrity wasn't meant for humans. But we need equilibrium to stay afloat to achieve that greatness.

Why is this spot on? Why am I starting my day with this?

We've, indeed, outsourced complexity to algorithms that reward simplicity. Nuance doesn’t and will never trend probably, but it’s where real thinking and progress live. It seems like we forgot that the tension between two opposing ideas is supposed to feel uncomfortable.

To quote Claude, you are so right, Nikunj! The ability to debate courteously seems to have dissolved in recent years, particularly in the US. Polarisation and conflict is the result. Sad, indeed, if AI perpetuates this....
