Thanks for visiting! Here’s a quick intro if you’re new here.
FutureBlind is devoted to covering four general topics: business, investing, tech, and design. It was initially launched in 2007. Here’s some examples of areas I’ll cover:
- Technology — in particular frontier tech like AI, Space, Bioengineering, etc.
- Progress — how we can make faster progress, in particular how we can tell better stories that drive progress
- Business & Investing — mental models about startups, investing, and business analysis
- Design — how to design better experiences and how new tools drive better design
