Ben Thompson writing about friction.

Change is guaranteed, but the type of change is not; never is that more true than today. See, friction makes everything harder, both the good we can do, but also the unimaginably terrible. In our zeal to reduce friction and our eagerness to celebrate the good, we ought not lose sight of the potential bad.

We are creating the future, and “better” does not win by default.

That one god, Tantalus.

That one Nietzsche quote.

…for when you gaze long into the abyss…the abyss gazes also into you
