I truly believe this lack of structural friction when it comes to basically every type of dopamine-frying pleasure on earth is a huge part of why gen z is Like That
- raffael_de 1y agoI'm not sure what your point is to be honest.
- walterbell 1y agoThe "[structural] friction" is defined by the tweet, not the substack article responding to the tweet.
- raffael_de 1y ago"I truly believe this lack of structural friction when it comes to basically every type of dopamine-frying pleasure on earth is a huge part of why gen z is Like That" You consider that a definition?
- walterbell 1y agoIt's context. A branch of a discussion thread. Not a dictionary. If you want a faster (less friction?) answer, you could post your question to substack comment thread or twitter.
- devmor 1y ago"Friction" in the author's post refers to intellectual friction. The need to think about what you are doing before you do it; as opposed to being led to your next action by the UX of an app or instruction of another person.
