Kudos on launch! (I know the founders personally) — amazing mission and the team is a great fit to solve this problem.

Well written, though it’s important to remember that different juries judge different writing styles as “better.” Conciseness would be celebrated in business and tech. Vague, ornate writing might be appreciated by those who enjoy surreal books and art.

If it wasn’t for certain experiences that I’ve had in the past, I’d say that death is the final end.

But I’m not so sure.

Great share! The ending is also very grounding (versus modern "superhero" media)

Using a salutation, and addressing someone by name is not a conspiracy to make people trust you. The things that you should care about are the banality of evil, and that no one believes that they've done anything wrong. I live in the Midwest and my job is to make low-impact CRUD applications for a small car insurance company. I would use the same salutation, because I have been taught that that is what I'm supposed to do. I wasn't coached in some session on how to trick people into thinking I'm their buddy - it just becomes part of the shared social vocabulary.

Absolutely. Better to focus on what actually matters, and keep the action dense.

Normal people, sally rooney. Quite intoxicating

Nexus, ramez naam. Good down to earth story for more people, and topic is right on the cusp of being ethically relevant (perception tech)
