I'm about a quarter of the way through The Nerd Reich by Gil Duran. He makes a good case that all these billionaires who want to remake the political systems across the world with themselves at the top are a pack of loonies.
Nowhere in their plans that I have seen so far does anyone grow food, provide clean water or textiles or maintain roads and bridges, just for a start. Apparently all this real world stuff happens by magic. #tech
