Society is becoming a pancake: broad but shallow.
- Society is becoming a pancake: broad but shallow.
- We only have the efficient answers, not the deep or meaningful ones.
- Everyone has to hurry to get an edge, so everything is one-ply.
- We're trading off a flattening of nuance with interoperability.
- Flattening removes the meso scale, meaning, community, aliveness--depth.
- The power of small and medium collaboration. Communities. Where you feel a social connection to something meaningful that is larger than you.
- Interoperability gives you scale and breadth.
- Hyper individualization and hyper globalization, but missing the middle.
