On Medici and Thiel
strangeloopcanon.com> We should radically scale genius grants
Judging by successes of Finland in education, we should radically support least achieving - not most achieving.
Author seems to be encouraging private donors, not governments. Given that, I don't see why we couldn't have both.
A great argument for universal basic income.
Is this sarcasm? Large amounts of capital (for a single person) given by wealthy individuals to select geniuses is the opposite of basic income given by government to all.
Delightfully so, and I'm certain the same one that Thiel himself would make. /s
