It was great seeing you there! I think you are spot on about people reaching for a new governance metaphor. Quantum-the-buzzword fits the bill well enough, though mildly frustrating for those who understand a little bit of quantum science. As for other people making progress leaps, I've given up counting the number of projects I've put on my backlog list only to have someone else do it several years later (& usually better). Several were briefed last weekend. I'm learning to not self criticize on my idea backlog. Good ones generally happen when someone has the same need but less development obstacles. I think your regular writing is incredibly valuable futures exploration. Few of us can consistently deliver regular insights week after week on a schedule.
I wish I could have gone. I asked over 3 (possibly 4) months in advance for subtitles, reduced light, and other accessible features as an autistic person. I finally had to cancel because they wouldn't commit to this in a timely, even though this is a violation of both state and federal law. Unfortunately, between stuff like this and RFK, the future of neurodivergence acceptance isn't looking so good. Hopefully it's a future that I can still change. #AutisticPride
