surreal to see our words in print, thank you to Tommy Koh and Daljit Singh for inviting @karentzy and me to share our perspectives on the success of Silicon Valley and the “operating system for discovery” vs the “OS for efficiency” which singapore is vaunted for

Why Zoom feels stilted:

Struggling to figure out when it’s your turn to talk disrupts the natural flow of conversation.

Due to the ambiguity of turn-taking cues, it takes us ~3x longer to respond remotely than face-to-face—even after accounting for audio transmission delays.
