There was this really good take on this divide by Andrew Yang a few days ago on CNN [clip from Twitter - 0]. Yang is the only candidate I saw who seemed to understand people from all parts of the US. Also, it would have been nice to have a president who understood technology.

- lalaland1125 6y agoIf only Yang himself understood technology. His blockchain voting proposal was hilariously bad.
- 8note 6y agoHe does understand VC though? Just add blockchain to the name and get all the funding
- m0llusk 6y agoThe details of Yang's blockchain proposal may be off, but the basic idea that we could really use a strongly secured voting system and that a blockchain or other three column ledger accounting could be a part of that is sound.
- nullc 6y agoI prefer candidates that don't think they understand technology. Thinking you understand technology seems to reliably lead to overconfidence. That's better left to advisers, who then have their advice filter by people who are sceptical of things that aren't tried and true and well understood on the holistic basis of actual use in practice.
