Critiquing the modern obsession with speed, advocating for slowness and intentionality as superior metrics for meaningful work.

And yet, you know, the analog is slower, which is people say, well, it's slower. And I'm like, yeah, it's slower. You know I have this long essay written I want to publish at some point about optimizing for speed I think one of the detriments of modern computer era and technology is that we start to think that speed is the best metric for everything And I think some of the stuff we're talking about doing here, speed is not the best metric. It's more about intentionality and meaningfulness that you want to solve for. and and analog gives you that it slows you down intentional friction hooray yep yeah speed is not the best metric uh i love that that phrase and this is not a new idea it reminds me of the peter drucker quote that nothing is so useless as doing efficiently that which should not be done at all But I do think that in the current culture that we live in, the amount of information that comes at us is exponentially more than at any other point in human history. So I think the value of going slow is greater than it has ever been, because when you go slow, you are able to see.
