  • Which of the following do you think most people you know would consider "radical" (radical doesn't mean wrong, or a bad idea, just an idea that you'd feel shocked to hear voiced)

    @futurebird Obviously this says something about my social bubble, but "neither".

    I've long been very vocal that billionaires should not exist and that any economy that creates them is a broken economy, and most "moderates" I know agree. Billionaires are a threat to democratic governance.

    Likewise, most moderates I know agree that you can't have gotten a billion unless you've screwed someone over (your workers, your customers, the state, or all of them).

    @futurebird @TheOtterDragon I think it's all about, as you say, persistence and time. What I think is the big individual differentiator is differences in motivation and enjoyment.

    My brother is a phenomenal musician who plays many instruments extremely well, whereas I'm a fairly good bass player. I don't think he has inherently more "talent" than I do - but he does enjoy playing music more than I do, and is a lot more motivated. So he got in his 10000 hours of practice, and I didn't.

    If anything here has a genetic component, I'd be more inclined to believe it's which things we enjoy (and therefore are motivated to put in a ton of time on), rather than being "intrinsically good" at something. My brother and I both sucked at guitar when we started playing; he just kept going far more than I did.

    @futurebird @TheOtterDragon As I've grown older, I've increasingly become convinced that talent doesn't actually exist.

    @futurebird In a sense, I suppose achieving long-distance space flight when you're trying to optimize for getting queens and drones to fly far and wide is more plausible than when you're trying to optimize for building better flint handaxes. 😉
