Here's a collection of my long form writings, more in-depth and substantial than my usual blog posts.
03
An essay making the case that if internet platforms tend towards monopoly anyway those platforms ought to be run like a public service. Even if Statebook can never replace Facebook, competition from a pro-social platform is not just good, but essential.
01
An essay about American politics focusing on Donald J Trump and his mythic paralell in the old Norse god Balder, who was the best of the Aesir, most famous for the story of his death.
02
An essay about AI, the hunt for the Next Big Thing, and the way Silicon Valley lost its pragmatism. It is an exploration of how and why tech types get so excited for mediocre or sometimes outright useless technologies.
