Quite a satisfying work day - quiet, with plenty of time to read and explore records I'd yet to spin, punctuated by brief challenges of IT problem-solving. All neatly framed in the company of a dear friend/coworker with whom I explored politics, socio-cultural impacts of emerging technology, a comparative cost/benefit analysis of a future post-scarcity leisure economy, automation and job displacement, a survey of educational systems around the world and their varying degrees of success, analog vs digital lifestyles, and the looming potential threats of general AI.
...and I dressed in disco.
Not a bad day by any measure!
