"We recast this digital renaissance--this ability to really program our lives, to get slack [free time]--we recast this as a new opportunity to somehow pump more steroidal life into the NASDAQ stock exchange."
"Human time is where we're trying to expand our markets... but it's all because we're basing our entire model of society and economics on an obsolete 13th-century-printing-press economic OS!"
Not sure I agree--I'd prefer growth to steady state--but things start to make sense when I'm aware of the "theorem" underpinning a system.
