š§ (Golden nuggets)#1: A general theory of collaboration
In 2020, everyone is either a collaborator or a dissident.EngagementĀ is any voluntary relationship with powerāto assist or resist power, whether in action or just desire. If you are trying to change the worldāeven if you just want to change itāmaybe even if you just want it to changeāyou are engaged.
The opposite of engagement isĀ detachment. To be detached is to be consciously irrelevantāto inhabit the world as it is, to know that it is likely to continue on its current path, and to separate yourself from any action or desire to change it. No one can achieve perfect detachmentāwhich is the point of trying.

How Digital Media Distorts Our Sense of TimeNo matter what my grandma chose to share with me about her upbringing, I can go online and find all kinds of information about the world she lived in, the hardships she mightāve endured. The distant past is brought back to life in the digital realm, as if no time has passed at all. The internet has flattened the vast archive of the past and made history unprecedentedly (and unrelentingly) immediate.

A Harvard sophomore is driving across the country on Google Street View, because this is the world we live in now.|On June 19, Uday Schultz hit the road. The 19-year-old rising sophomore at Harvard decided to spend part of his summer break fulfilling a dream he has had since middle school. He was going to drive across the country. But without a car and the pandemic in full swing, he decided to do it all from his Brooklyn house. So Schultz fired up Google Street View, plugged in Seattle, and started clicking his way back home.

Humanity begins the real phase of mass-scale bionic body augmentations. Swapping body parts with more robust technologically integrated prosthetics.
The augmentations will provide insane technological integrations that will sync with the external devices while also improving the overall body functionality & longevity.
The jobs moved towards the Internet, and new ones such as VR, AR, art, communication, experiencial services, software and so on.
