I did not realize it’s already three months since the previous edition of Delicacies. On this December 2021 solstice, here is some fresh harvest. Also some new or fine-tuned categories. As usual, an incoherent, irregular, unpredictable collection of interesting sparks. Handpicked, no robots. Minimalism in curation. Hope you like it. Happy holidays. Enjoy!

• About the pros and cons of the hot mess approach to information management (search vs. folders). By L.M. Sacasas
• Freedom is not a goal, but a direction. The vaccine against monoculture is tolerance. By Edward Snowden
• About reversing the future cone. With this forecast, we’re asking instead “how do we get to what we want?” By Jamais Caisco
• An emoji flipbook presentation by Alex Komoroske about how dysfunctional organizational dynamics arise even when individuals are well-behaved. Alex is Head of Corporate Strategy at Stripe.
• About the dependency of the virtual world on the physical world. Fantastic critique on the x-verses. By Christopher Butler

If you can’t get enough of these and want more, you can hang on to the firehose, the extended version of Petervan’s Delicacies in REVUE. Also in this edition with loads of videos. Subscribe here: https://www.getrevue.co/profile/petervan
