Overhead on collaboration

Haile’s first law of media

The success of any project is inversely correlated with the amount that requires publishers to work together.

Finite vs infinite games and how you need to play them very differently

 A finite game is played to win; there are clear victors and losers. An infinite game is played to keep playing; the goal is to maximize winning across all participants. 

Debate is a finite game. 

Marriage is an infinite game. 

The midterm elections are finite games. 

American democracy is an infinite game. 

A great deal of unnecessary suffering in the world comes from not knowing the difference. A bad fight can destroy a marriage. A challenged election can destabilize a democracy.

Dumm sein macht glücklich.

 Überheblich, ich weiß, aber dennoch lustig.
