What Was Actually Genius? Nicholas of Cusa, Kepler & Shakespeare
" we must now introduce, urgently, a physical-economic standard, rather than the currently prevalent monetarist one."// beim akt uebernimmt die strom-liquiditaet monetar-auspraegung in physikalischem verbund - services, die auch was tun.. als naechstes geld. convertabilitaetsproblem, zoll vs aonymitaet (im chaos regiert die macht allein)
- The difference between truth and “sense-certainty,” is that sense-perceptual processes are merely matters of the whims of those undeserved beliefs which are, in fact, as Shakespeare demonstrated in terms of his King Henry V, merely shadows cast by sense-perception, not the so-called “real thing.”
- My essential contention on this matter, pertains to the evidence showing that any human being may be potentially enabled, through adequate personal development and related, and enriching experience, to break through the so-to-speak “walls of evolutionary time.”
- merely the more common, deductively crafted, even otherwise relevant discovery.

Longplayer - Longplayer Letters
- but by and large, we don’t do that anymore. We have less active engagement with our future than our ancestors did.
- This diminishing future horizon is mirrored by an equally shrinking backwards view. We find ourselves left with prejudices and opinions that were hastily and emotionally formed at the time and not revisited and re-evaluated, drowned under a relentless stream of new stories and panics. We seem to be so thoroughly submerged by new impressions that we don’t have time to digest our own history.

- Ghosts don’t exist, but ghost stories sure do. We love frightening ourselves with narratives built around a horrifying logic that emerges with the telling of the tale, ideally capped with a moral lesson.
- Powers that appear benign, we learn, can have unintended consequences.
- “Time,” Nassim noted, “is a bullshit detector.” As evidence accumulates, discussion moves on.

Three lessons learned from the demise of Kodak - WPP
- Lesson two: No matter how paranoid you think you are, you’re not paranoid enough.
I thank Andy Grove, former CEO of Intel, for this piece of wisdom. In his book, Only the Paranoid Survive, Grove writes of the strategic inflection point which a company can reach as an effect of just about anything: increased competition, a change in regulatory issues and, of course, changes in technology. When a strategic inflection point occurs, ordinary business rules must go out the window. - There’s something to be said for tradition and strong company values, but not when culture becomes a barrier to success.

- We’re hitting the point where more than half the world has a smartphone. People are coming online, many for the first time, in countries where they’re buying things like twenty-five dollar Android handsets. What type of engineering challenges does that pose?
- We’re probably still early in that mission, but that is the goal: that any one person can communicate with every other person in the world.
- It’s important to get a steel thread of functionality working end-to-end rather than building it out in layers, so work through a single use case that has you build some UI, logic and backend.

Of Flying Cars and the Declining Rate of Profit | David Graeber | The Baffler
- conceptual revolutions
- writing endless annotations of French theory from the seventies, despite the guilty awareness that if new incarnations of Gilles Deleuze, Michel Foucault, or Pierre Bourdieu were to appear in the academy today, we would deny them tenure.
- we have no place for our eccentric, brilliant, and impractical citizens. Most languish in their mothers’ basements, at best making the occasional, acute intervention on the Internet.
- you cannot follow your curiosity
- But if you want to minimize the possibility of unexpected breakthroughs, tell those same people they will receive no resources at all unless they spend the bulk of their time competing against each other to convince you they know in advance what they are going to discover.

Nestlés Abwehr gegen Shitstorms - News Wirtschaft: Unternehmen - tagesanzeiger.ch
"Unglücklicherweise habe es einen Orang-Utan gebraucht, um Nestlé darauf aufmerksam zu machen, wie zentral die Bedeutung von Social Media für ein global tätiges Unternehmen heute ist. Das sagt Patrice Bula, Marketingchef und Mitglied der Konzernleitung von Nestlé, im Gespräch mit dem TA in der Zentrale des Giganten in Vevey. «Social Media hat bei uns eine völlig neue strategische Bedeutung erhalten. Wir haben Leute mit Social-Media-Erfahrung angestellt. Konzernchef Paul Bulcke, ich und andere gingen eine ganze Woche ins Silicon Valley und trafen alle wichtigen Akteure: Facebook, Google, (GOOG 1034.07 1.15%) Twitter, Instagram. Dann erarbeiteten wir eine Strategie.»"
