I love it when these dorks call us the mainstream media
This is exactly why people are abandoning mainstream media: cheap insults instead of actual reporting You don’t have to agree with @DavidSacks on everything, but pretending he “sucks” while ignoring his actual track record is unserious. A few reminders: -Co-founded PayPal, one

I was so so pleased to go on @reckless / @verge's Decoder podcast to talk about FILTERWORLD and how distribution shapes content online. As a longtime listener I was offended, however, that Nilay didn't ask about my org chart or decision framework

The author of Filterworld discusses art and culture in the age of Instagram and TikTok.
