Well done. Hmm. Writing well consists of two excellences, and an adequacy:conveying something the reader doesn’t know or hasn’t experienced; doing so within a frame, the burden of which is less than the value anticipated; with sufficient syntactical formality, reducing its cost.

Best way to become a better writer: Live an interesting life.

Talk to people who make you think.

Travel to places that spring you to life.

Live the kind of life you’ll want to tell your grandchildren about.

Seriously have to say again, that your post was a public service, and I’m going to share it (and compare it to my work on Propertarianism, which is the scientific rather than philosophical equivalent.)

Well done. I usually counter-signal Gerard because he’s a favorite of the conservative postmodernists (manipulate, relativism, denying, lying – abrahamic religion in sophistry rather than mysticism) when your explanation and Theil’s interpretation are the positive applications.

I wrote 15,000 words about Peter Thiel.

My goal was to write a simple, detailed, and easy-to-understand introduction to his ideas.

But in a way that’s never been done before.

Instead of writing about business, I wrote about Thiel’s Christian worldview.

@acitrano Bravo. I have not realized. But it is not real gun. Police just use rubber bullets. I think he need to use to protect himself. otherwise he would be beaten.

I think Andrew and I would have to have a few conversations about the foundations of economics, law, demographics, and mathematics for that to be the case, but yes in this instance I agree with the sentiment. 😉
