Dave Frampton

I don’t care personally/directly, I’m expecting it, and confident enough to continue.

But a) everyone is having too much fun spending all day arguing to notice when solutions show up or to even bother thinking of them. Very literally this is true all of the time everywhere and it’s very bad.

And b) Think of all the great ideas that have been lost from those who don’t have my arrogance and got shot down by the loud simpleton gatekeepers

@majicDave Takes a lot of effort to get up the hill! Bad or good that's human nature, people are naturally skeptical and the majority of the time it's justified. Anything new needs to have utility (even perceived, aka crypto), solve problems, and staying power before people start piling on. Arrogance & stubbornness is the fuel to make it up the left side, keep at it!
