I feel like I disagree with this approach to government efficiency: https://x.com/DOGE/status/1860739165144367441 The examples listed are a tiny fraction of all spending. If a government _optimizes_ for "don't make oopses that look bad on twitter", then it will end up missing a lot of valuable opportunities, and at the same time lots of actually-wasteful large-scale things will remain just because they look respectable. You _want_ a VC-like approach on small-scale public funding, that is okay with large quantities of oopses, because its goal is to make sure it captures the 1000x opportunities. Concentrate prudence energy on the large-scale stuff.

One of my favorite posts from @robinhanson: "Spaceship Earth Explores Culture Space" https://www.overcomingbias.com/p/spaceship-earth-in-culture-spacehtml By inventing, trying out, and having competitions between different cultures, we're doing something that's every bit as meaningful as space exploration.

Good question! I'd say somewhere in the middle. There are specific themes, but there's no single one that dominates, and the themes also have common meta-level influences.

Now that in the 2020s, we're moving away from total twitter-as-global-watercooler dominance toward something more fragmented/pluralist, what will that imply about the ideologies that come about this decade?

2010 did not feel this way to me! There definitely were issue-specific movements (eg. anti-copyright), but the larger balance was toward abstract stuff. Even the Pirate Party felt the need to try to stretch anti-copyright into a more holistic vision for society (UBI, publicly funded art/research, direct democracy etc)

I am noticing that the most successful new ideologies of the past decade are very object-level (prescriptions on specific issues) and quite little meta-level (social processes for making decisions on object-level issues). Examples: * Abstract libertarianism feels much weaker than 10 years ago. But issue-specific versions of it are quite successful: YIMBY (housing), the crypto space * e/acc (it's about all technology in theory, but ends up being about AI in practice) * The largest cluster in effective altruism morphed from being meta-level ("think harder to making sure your donations are going where they can do the most good!") to object level (AI safety, with a little bit of animal welfare and global public health) * Longevity movement Maybe network states and Glen and Audrey's Plurality movement are two exceptions - but in general the above feels like a strong pattern. Any ideas why this meta level -> object level shift seems to be taking place?

I used to identify as globalist but then I was told that "globalism" actually means "wanting a (either de-jure or de-facto) world government". Definitely hard against that, so.... internationalism it is?
