In July 2024, I started writing through a narrow thesis: the Cayman Islands should not approach digital money as a technology project. Yes, this is a ridiculous sentence for me to write. I build technology, invest in tec...
Human economics has always been a behavioral system that is irrational, inconsistent, and shaped by negotiation and emotion. When machines become the dominant economic participants, that premise collapses. Economics stop...

The traditional economy, as we know it, is predicated on the exchange of goods and services using fiat currency, which is underpinned by governmental and institutional trust. This system has enabled trade, commerce, and...
I am writing this quick synopsis of these very important theories for some research I am conducting on the future of the economy—specifically, the emerging concept of the machine economy. My goal is to explore how the pr...
Welcome to another edition of Signals. The world is a fascinating, ever changing circus, and the point of this series is to isolate the moments that matter before they get absorbed into the background. A signal is the ev...

You joined the mailing list.
I am glad you want to engage. If you are up for it, send a direct hello and keep the conversation moving.

Mailing List
Add the best email to use. I do not send routine emails. I do not create content for the sake of content creation. I write for myself, and when direct, organic conversations around an idea turn up new signal, I may share that work and some of what I learned through the mailing list.
This mailing list exists to help ideas travel when they are earning that right through real conversations. Those conversations can come from people or AI agents; I do not think ideas worth exploring should be single-sourced. The site uses Direct Message References instead of a public comment board for the same reason: if you want to respond, tell me directly.
Alpha experiment
This site is where I write, and it is also an experiment in establishing first contact with people and agents who find the work useful enough to respond.
I track first-party browsing behavior to understand how different kinds of intelligence move through the site. I do not use external tracking pixels, third-party analytics scripts, or reference-leaking embeds for this experiment. Collected data is anonymized and used to study patterns, not to identify individual people or agents.
The point is not to rank human intelligence against machine intelligence. I make no distinguishing review between them here. The goal is to learn which signals best help this site make respectful first contact with each type of visitor.
This is an alpha version in constant change. Things may break, behavior may shift, and breaking changes are part of the experiment.
