He agreed for 10k sats. Haha kids these days. 

> Publishing an hour long podcast about how someone earned $150 in sats over 2 years of work writing articles. And pretending its revolutionary.

I'm not sure why you want to pick this bone. I don't think anyone is arguing 500k sats matters much on an absolute scale for most people. Nor would I ever use the world 'revolution' (speaking of cringe ... the worst) to describe SN along any dimension. It's a strawman.

Most of us *are* impressed we *might* have a *weak and very early* hint of a social media future that pays you *something* rather than taxing you via data and attention mining. I'm the first person to admit it all might be a mirage though. If you want to argue against something, argue against that. We might all actually learn something.

A fun thought experiment on SN is to have everyone live list their failures in a day to normalize that we all fail all the time. Now I'm trying to think about how my last failure was probably not the last and I've got hundreds more recent than that lol.

We succeed by failing until we succeed or by getting lucky

There's a chance that it's not failures that define anything but rather forming your life around trying a ton of things with a specific percentage chance. If you took an action that took one year and had a 60% success rate at something huge, vs something that took a day and had a 1% success rate as something huge, the ones that take the smallest amount of time, thus a person makes the most amount of failures, is more about what defines eventual success.

I think about this a lot when it comes to MVPs in a startup.
