A Quickie for Your Thoughts
Dug up this New Yorker article on Peter Thiel after our friend Joel (founder at bufferapp) tweeted it, only to realize that it's not actually new - it's from November 2011. For those unfamiliar, Thiel is most well-known for co-founding Paypal, and now runs Clarium Capital (a hedge fund) and of course invests in start-ups. It's always interesting to glean insights on the personal side of the accomplished and the ingenious; usually quirky, often misunderstood, and most likely flawed in fundamental ways. Anyway, have not been enraptured by an article like this in a while. Serious braingasm.
No time to write a full fledged entry at the moment but wanted to put in a placeholder first. So many thoughts, so many points worth expanding on...libertarianism, aging and death, hedge funds, social constructs, list goes on.
Ahhh Peter, please let me have your babies! (naturally, he is gay)
