because it resembles an old 2003 sensibility of blogs which resonated with a pseudo sensibility about certain types of New Yorkeresque/90s WIRED vibe. Medium is not good, I use it right now to create synopsis for YouTube videos I make, it's basically Myspace, which was useful for non professional and pro musicians to just get the music out.

you'll find this intersting, https://youtu.be/mq2mcwtyjEA Peter Medwar said the most human thing about us is our technology. Civilization on the other hand is merely a by product of the phonetic (Phoenician) alphabet. The ability to translate (hoick) the acoustic (thought, dance, poems) into the visual (writing) etc

McLuhan in the 70s is the most relevant today: specifically:

Take Today: the executive as drop out with Barry Nevitt

From Cliché to Archetype with Wilfred Watson

and finally,

as a guy whose idea was successfully pitched to a successful tech company of which i am still connected, i'm going to say yes. the classification aspects of specialty training keeps the process from being as fluid as it needs to be in order to be truly game changing rather than merely, whatever expectation is expected.

i know this sounds different to everyone, here's the point,

The User Needs to Use It. The focus is always on everything else. Only when theres' been 'some' success does the user and by user, I mean, the entire field the program is for, is an influence, this lack of empathy keeps any leadership from ever happening when everything is based on 'past successes of other companies' rather than trying to lead effectively.
