neat that you said "who" in the picture. they're both likely thinking & experiencing. my first sense was "what" in the picture.
Wiki tells me that our boy Friedman helped design the income tax we have today.
Not sure if that's a great fit for @DOGE. Maybe.
There is a theme in financial writing of the sort found on zerohedge, which could be summarized, I think, thusly: "how many metaphors can I fit into this information dense paragraph?"..
This post conforms to the pattern and does not disappoint. Thanks for sharing.

i drove past a large solar installation this summer, advertising that it was built with some large portion of native control, responsibility. seems like the sort of thing that might be valuable.
reversing aging is not the same as immortality. you might be making a comparison that doesn't make sense.
there's a well trod phrase:
it's not the age that kills you, instead the failure of your organ systems is how you end up dead
The word "aging" is sometimes used to refer to the total system failure that comes with age. And so when people say "reverse aging," they often mean reversing total system failure. It might be the case though that we are able to reverse some systems and thus reverse some parts of aging, but that other systems are more complex than we give them credit for or could possibly appreciate.
All that is to say that I think immortality is within our reach. That it is a surmountable engineering problem.
However, it may not be within my reach. I'm also not certain after some decades of being a life extension enthusiast, whether or not I still hold the view that living indefinitely is the superior option.
I've had it on my radar for a while. I like the idea, but i'm concerned if i wind up really needing it i may not get my needs met.
no, it's xcancel (formerly nitter)
took your link and replaced it with the non-twitter alternative. i love it.
“I think you’ve taken this idea way too far,” a mentor told her a few months into the project in 2007. “The trick is to grow with your field. Not to leap so far ahead of it.”
Go fuck yourself so hard. What a terrible thing to say to somebody, even if it is sound advice it's a terrible suggestion.
