      Interesting and unexpectedly funny look at what's going on with Google/Alphabet, Bridgewater and Elon's tweeting. The super conversational writing style seemed a bit odd at first but I ended up really enjoying the article and I think it makes what could otherwise be a dry topic much more approachable. So many people Segwaying around thinking about world-changing ideas.

      Also, I've never heard of The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas but now I have to read it. From Wikipedia:

      "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" is a 1973 work of short philosophical fiction by American writer Ursula K. Le Guin. With deliberately both vague and vivid descriptions, the narrator depicts a summer festival in the utopian city of Omelas, whose prosperity depends on the perpetual misery of a single child.

        Ursula Le Guin is the shit. I’d love to read that too.

      The title is a little misleading, but there's some interesting information about Alphabet/Google and other companies.
