Man, I've been wanting to write a piece on exactly this for a while. The Notion I have going for it is called "Do We Have Risk Backwards." @friedberg said it better than I could have written it. Take the 10:50 and watch.

This is awesome -- glad my post inspired yours!

"People being willing to both dream the dream AND criticize the dreamers represent a much healthier ecosystem than unchecked dreamers or lazy pessimists." Excellent piece by @kwharrison13

What an incredible piece of handcrafted, human-made writing.

Diaspora (1997) is excellent zoom-out sci fi. Impressive that it was written 26 years ago -- feels particularly worth reading now.
