    For 15 months, we have been unable to gather in large groups, walk into a shop without a mask or even go to your local pub without having to scan a code from your phone; it is the first time that western nations have locked down their populations — and they managed to do so with little resistance.

  4. Mark Zuckerberg talks to Tyler Cowen (Economist), and Patrick Collison (CEO of Stripe)

    Please check out my website: https://bit.ly/32vlD1y I was surprised there wasn’t a YouTube playlist where you could find all of Zuckerberg’s interviews in one place, so I created it.

  7. Philosopher John Gray: this moment is bigger than 1989

    Freddie Sayers asks eminent philosopher John Gray whether we are living through a moment of great change, akin to 1989, 1968, 1917, 1848…

    His answer? The changes across the world — and the retreat of the universalist ideal to reveal a world of competing civilizational zones, may be more significant for humankind than any of those previous moments.

    He touches on parallels between today’s woke movement and medieval millenarianism, his break with the Right, and how the world is becoming more ‘Game of Thrones’.

    Don’t miss this fascinating tour de force, steeped in knowledge and with a sweeping context, from one of the most important thinkers of the day.

  9. Patricia Lockwood: The Communal Mind

    Patricia Lockwood travels through the internet, wondering why we’re talking like this, why we deliberately order the worst thing on the menu, and what it felt like to be a man, at the turn of the century, posting increasing amounts of his balls online.

    The lecture was part of the London Review of Books 2019 Winter Lecture series, delivered at the British Museum on 8 February 2019.
