The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q you thought it was gonna take over, like, the current, you know, small crypto world? Or did you actually think, like, Like, did you have a vision of like, you know, and you know, today like Post Malone's buying like Bored Apes and Visa's adding, you know, crypto, and it's just like, it's, it's, it's mainstream. I'm just curious, like, did you and Jackson like, you know, have some foresight?

A Oh, no, we had no foresight whatsoever. And not only that, it was just a complete joke. It was just like, this, this thing's gonna die in like a couple days. It's obviously stupid. No one's gonna buy this. Like, this is just a gag because it was funny. But, like, it was functional. It was just a fork of an existing coin that already worked. So we knew it would work. It's just like, like, no one cares about this. And then that wasn't true. Like, a lot of people cared about it instantly. And obviously, like, you know, you're talking about the, the current scene with NFTs and all this stuff. It's like, no, no way we would have thought anything like this would happen. It was, it was all just a bunch of nerds, like, being silly with each other back then.

Q at it, and I'm like, how many people get to, like, create a meme and spread it, you know, that for, well, I mean, first of all, it's enduring. Like, it's been years at this point, and, you know, hundreds of millions of people have seen it. I'm just curious, like, how do you feel? I don't mean, I don't mean, you know, how do you feel about it all?

A Um, so in terms of the, the lost porn part of it, or just that as part of culture, uh, I agree that I think that's a good thing, uh, that people are, like, more realistic about it. It's not like, oh, we always just make money because everything goes up all the time. I think it's good that there's a reasonable thought of, like, this is pretty much gambling. Um, in terms of, like, what I think, uh, it's just weird. Like, it, it, From, from my position, I just kind of made something eight years ago, and then eight years later it went crazy and Elon Musk was talking about it. I'm like, okay, like, it's just a very like, like, all right, I guess I'm in this position now. And then like, when I tweet stuff and people are responding to me, I'm like, that's weird. Like people are listening to me. I'm just some nerd, like sitting in my underwear most of the time or on the toilet tweeting random crap. So, you know, it's just, it's,
