I have an unfinished book manuscript, I started writing in 2020. I'm actually quite happy with what's there. It's called "A World Worth Living In". It is my attempt to capture the constitution of the principles I think lead towards what you might call the "good life". It's a deeply philosophical book, and it tries to synthesize what I see as the best principles for thinking about the present, and how I think we could move towards the future.

I keep opening up Scrivener, and can't get past a writer's block. I think what's really happened is some pretty important assumptions I went into writing it, have shifted under my feet. In particular, a pretty deep re-evaluation of how I think about the problems and opportunity of technology.

That said, I've come to a conclusion. I think I'm going to try and repurpose some select portions of the manuscript I still think represent my current thoughts into some Medium posts in the coming months.

Also, I want to start a new manuscript, that tried to build my case for bitcoin. Why I think it's important. Where I think it's going. Where I think it's not going. And how it interfaces with political and cultural challenges. I speak to a lot of people who constantly tell me that they are glad I'm advancing the perspectives I am, and that I represent a thread of thought in bitcoin that has a decent amount of adherents, but there's really no corpus to capture what the full argument is. There is plenty of such sources of this from an anarchist and libertarian perspective. I want to give a shot at creating an argument that treads a lot closer to the classical liberal tradition.

I really feel like I need a new Sunday hobby.
