"Balaji Srinivasan asks in a Twitter thread why we’re not far more productive given the technology available. Here I collect the five possible explanations he mentions."

[Balaji @balajis]

We really should be in the middle of a golden age of productivity. Within living memory, computers did not exist. Photocopiers did not exist. *Backspace* did not exist. You had to type it all by hand.

3) The Great Divergence. The productivity is here, it's just only harnessed by the indistractable few.

4) The Great Dilemma. The productivity has been burned in bizarre ways that require line-by-line "profiling" of everything, like this tunnel study. https://t.co/rbHrfwThXa

[Balaji @balajis]

Theses

1) The Great Distraction. All the productivity we gained has been frittered away on equal-and-opposite distractions like social media, games, etc.

2) The Great Dissipation. The productivity has been dissipated on things like forms, compliance, process, etc.

- heart rate monitors
- augmented reality spectacles
- continuous glucose monitors
- smart rings and smart watches
- eventually, brain-machine interfaces

What else we got?

"Living things tend to change unrecognizably as they grow. Who would deduce the dragonfly from the larva, the iris from the bud, the lawyer from the infant?

Flora or fauna, we are all shapeshifters and magical reinventors. Life is really a plural noun, a caravan of selves."

And of course, as soon as I sell, it goes up the next day.

The best advice I ever received was to increase your "luck surface area".

- Work hard
- Befriend likeminded people
- Learn faster than others

If you do that, you will get lucky at some point.

My mission is simple: to demystify these concepts and make them accessible to everyone.

All of the threads can be found below. Enjoy and please share!

@InvestorSeattle @thedulab @FitFounder There unfortunately are not yet that many great Korean restaurants I can proudly recommend in Seattle, but 'Mama's Kitchen' in Bellevue is quite delectable.

Getting things done sooner, instead of rushing faster, allows you to gracefully glide through life.
