There is, without doubt, a need to unbundle schooling into distinct services.

Part of the "immune system" of an advanced civilization... individuals/orgs (like @a16z), which quicken the minimum allowable pace for operations currently insulated from competition.. oft because of "rules". Such orgs are thus defined by rule-breaking. future.a16z.com/what-we-learne…

Tips for explaining things quickly: 1. No new words (i.e. jargon). 2. Explain complex ideas via analogy (based on common experiences). 3. Start big picture and follow a linear path to the main takeaway. 4. If multiple takeaways, take breaks between them. 5. No extra words.

A surprisingly large amount of leadership consists of doggedly clinging to illusions and being outspoken about them to others. If all goes well, you're a visionary. If not, you're deluded. But the behavior is pretty much the same.

I also prefer this "short squeeze" raiding-parties-gutting-hedge-funds #EatTheRich strategy over electing a corrupt, lawless, conman billionaire who doesn't actually care about the little guy. Big Q: Will the Sheriff of Nottingham be able to quell the uprising or will it spread?
