On Building:

“To build” is my current motto, or guiding principle. It is probably best summarized by Marc Andreessen’s “It’s Time to Build” essay, where he argues that our focus should be on building. I also think this is the best thing we can do right now to ensure a good future awaits us. And while I do think other things are important, such as tearing down oppresive systems and taking care of those in need, we are in urgent need of more building. We need better sources of energy, more efficient modes of transport, more effective medicine, and we need to find other homes in the solar system and beyond.
