The article feels very coherent to the point that I want to follow its advice. But will it work?

>Status, like money and power, is a form of capital. If we can learn to tolerate our feelings of “not-enoughness,” we can then use status in service of what we care about, rather than being addicted to it as an end in itself.

If we can tolerate 'not-enoughness', what would be there that needs change? As a society, don't we have to tolerate addiction because that's the loop that drives our progress?

>Casey Rosengren is a founder and executive coach based in New York. If you’d like to learn more about ACT and values-oriented coaching, drop him a note.

'founder' - Does he use the title 'in service' or is he still trapped in the status game? In the latter case, is his advice still valid?

Have you seen bioemerl's comment about television? The one who controls the weights in TikTok's selection algorithm determines what people are going to believe.

Tether has the same problem. What happens to Binance's Tether coins if Tether's bank collapses?

There are two kinds of arthritis and the age-related one shouldn't be linked with food.

Disney and Apple are close. Does this mean that there is not much to be expected from Apple's VR headset launch this year?

>Hopefully Binance still has all the money

How can they? SVB has made it clear that it is very difficult to maintain value. If Binance has invested all their money in securities, it's not unlikely that their investments have gone done down with the rising of the interest rates.

If they keep all money in regular banking accounts, they may still have it. But they are exposed to the risk that their bank or their banks become insolvent.

The markets don't work if delivering a child leads to bankruptcy. Either people pay for unnecessary procedures or those procedures cost too much.

In which way will they make it different from the Meta headsets? The Apple branding won't be enough to turn an average headset into a successful product.

My guess would be that their headset is just a set of goggles that requires an iPhone for computation. Then, they can sell them for $300 or even $150.

The article suggests that VR is a tool for long-distance relationships. For $300, that could become possible.

Does it allow me to collaborate on notes with others?

Google will become good again. With TikTok threatening Youtube and ChatGPT threatening search, long-term success decisions become relevant again.

Yes. That would be doing it wrong for mass adoption. Doing it right means that users don't have to care about the protocol.

But there still has to be infrastructure. Instead of reinventing the wheel, a new social network could be built on the Mastodon foundation. There would already be users and there would be an exit strategy for power users if the new network fails. Right now, it's not worth investing time in a new network because the social graph doesn't survive the end of the network. With Mastodon, it would be easy to migrate to a new service.

Where is the fundamental limit? It's a protocol. Somebody could create an instance that does everything right for mass adoption.

Regarding you sidetrack:

When you swap money for products, you don't need time. If the economy shifts to visibility and attention, instant transactions are not possible anymore. Whatever people produce, somebody needs time to consume it. So all the productivity gains will be used to create more audience.
