I think decentralized networks essentially provide another opportunity for businesses. Look at email, or web browsers and how centralized they are now.

Make an app for a decentralized protocol, add some polish and maybe give something away with it which is cheap at scale (storage, bandwidth) as the loss leader and establish dominance.

Yeah it's bad. But it's also why Microsoft can't really roll them over. They actually do something and get payed for it, as horrible as it is.


The metaphor I use to think about burnout is imagining your energy as a lithium ion battery. You can occasionally charge it to 100% and run it down to 0% without any real degradation, but if you start doing that every day it won't hold a useful charge after a while. Keep your charge between 20% and 80% if you can.

Also helps to maintain pretty firm limits on work time and not-work time, or even just having a small window of your waking day where you're on Do Not Disturb.
