  • On October 7th 2015, Peter Thiel lectured and answered questions from Gregory Thornbury regarding the future of the developed world.
    ‘What does one need to do to make the U.S. a better place?’ That’s where I’m weirdly hopeful, in spite of the fact that a lot of things aren’t going perfectly these days… [A]t least everyone knows things are rotten. We’re in a much better place than when things were rotten and everyone thought things were great.” - Peter Thiel in The New Yorker
    Peter is a venture capitalist and entrepreneur who has been involved with some of the most dynamic companies to emerge from Silicon Valley. He helped to found and launch PayPal, Clarium Capital Management, and Palantir Technologies. He was also Facebook’s first outside investor and director.

    I really enjoyed this discussion. He left me with more questions than answers, and that's how I usually prefer it.

    Something that’s true that very few people agree with me on:
    Your personality, likes, disposition, agreeableness,selfishness, generosity, talents, likes, dislikes, fears, conscience, is over-ridingly genetic (inherited).

    My answer to the question "What is something that is true but very few people agree with": Ketchup is gross.

    Main part of his speech is what he’s trying not to say.

    I'm not convinced about his theory that it's regulation that has killed innovation in the "world of atoms" since about 1971. It'd be nice if he were to provide some more numbers and facts here. Like, what regulations were put in place around 1971 that would account for this? And if there were some harsh regulations in the US, why didn't the innovation move to less-regulated places in the world? However there's also lots of good stuff in here; the comments about monopolies are very good and I think more commonsense than he thinks. You'll hear Warren Buffett talk just as frankly about the importance of "moats" for building a good business. My idea that's true but unpopular: consciousness, if it exists, exists everywhere in unity.

    Interesting talk. I find it a bit irritiating when the audience laugh at so many random things he says, when they're not even meant to be funny. It's really not that hilarious.
