Is 'read' past tense or an indication to advise against - either way - I've missed you ♻️

I went outside and touched grass after this as the wind kicked up so loud I thought I needed to bring my trash bin inside. Strange happenings and yet fully enlivening - the wind seemed to enjoy my immediate reply and calmed down.

It's interesting in light of everything that's come to pass with Peter Thiel -- his idea of success in business is basically to build a monopoly, then build a moat so high nobody can catch up. It's basically what everyone's stereotype of "greedy evil capitalists" is. One can imagine a direct throughline from this to Curtis Yarvin and the "neo-monarchists"...
There's an interesting quote in it where Thiel calls Musk a "sales grandmaster": > But since complex sales requires making just a few deals each year, a sales grandmaster like Elon Musk can use that time to focus on the most crucial people—and even to overcome political inertia. Once you see Musk as a "sales grandmaster" (vs. hardcore engineer) everything makes sense.

it‘s been a long time since I read it, but what I remember is mostly: when someone else builds the same thing you do don’t waste your time and move on creating something new

Are you imploring us to "never read this one", or are you saying that you personally "never read this one"?

This version is better, he dives deeper into how to rug pull billions from ICOs, buy off regulators and ultimately buy 164,000 bitcoins with stolen money. image

I've read and I can say that Thiel's contrasting of "innovation" and "globalization" (the latter being essentially a horizontal reproduction of existing solutions) is insightful. The idea that a true monopoly lies in being the only one capable of doing something (by real skill and not by outing the competitors) is less cynical than it initially seems. And I also liked the reflections on "occult sales" (say you are in just for innovation and so on, and create beautiful things so everyone will want to buy your product even when you haven't announced it as a product).

I recently read this for the first time, just a few months back. It’s fascinating to dive into it so long after it was originally written.

Oh, shame on me. 🙂 I started it twice and never finished it. Thanks for the reminder. Even recommended it. I guess the lesson it had to teach me was another one. And somehow I'm still more fascinated with the ZERO...

Why not? Read it once, before someone stole it from me. Although I don't remember it.

Is this a completely separate book or does it include Zero to One content? Thx!
