If the Media Lab had awarded their award in say 2007, would you agree that would be different than awarding it today?

- PavlovsCat 8y agoDo you agree that there was courage involved? You're not even acknowledging the death threats, nothing, you're shifting the goal posts as if I had written nothing at all. And you shift them into a complete own goal, too. From what I could find, that award only exists since 2017: https://www.media.mit.edu/galleries/2017-disobedience-award/ https://www.media.mit.edu/galleries/2017-disobedience-award/ It comes with a cash prize of $250k, and that would probably have been great to get earlier on. On the other hand, maybe they now had over 11 years of experience, and know a much better use for the money than they might have 11 years ago. I have no clue, but I don't see how this is anything but trying to see a problem where there is none.
