RE: Well after nearly a year, I finally heard directly from Ned.
Really I can aggrandize you in one word.
Yep
But I will add, you totally nailed it and got an A on the final exam, Doctor.
All of that. All true.
I'm pretty aggrandized in general. It comes with having a simultaneously enormous ego and massive case of imposter complex.
It's a writer thing.
The problem with my analysis, and I absolutely acknowledge it as a problem, is the question of "so what the hell should I do about it?"
I almost want to go stick some money into EOS, just to be kind of an ass, but honestly I haven't seen anything which is going to back up EOS as a valued token yet, and I really hate to waste money just on general principles – so that's not really a good idea.
I can keep hounding @ned about being dumb in public, but that seems counterproductive. Not that he could be any less productive, lately, as far as any of us can tell, but I'd rather not be blamed for a delay of SMT's beyond another six months. Or yet another excuse to not improve the Steemit interface. Or no more commentary on the bandwidth issue for new users.
I don't want that on my conscience.
So in the end, all I'm left with is a vague sense of disquiet and disgust, and no better option than just "keep doing what I'm doing," using the platform for blogging, keep sharing the links, "keep sharing the tapes." It worked for MST3k.
Unfortunately, none of this actually provides something useful for us to do. I object to that.
I will stand by you as we ponder the yonder.
