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

As usual, an incoherent, irregular, unpredictable collection of interesting sparks. Handpicked, no robots. Minimalism in curation. There is a shitload of new stuff this month. I tried to be extra disciplined and clean out the obvious, and what you’ve probably already seen elsewhere. Spread the word. Enjoy!
