  • Trying to claim the term “Web3” is a futile battle. It is already widely understood to mean crypto and blockchain. If I see a job posting that says the company is built on Web3, I know immediately that the job is built on scams and grifts without having to ask further questions. Web3 as a term is ruined already.

    For this to work it must be a different term than Web3. Maybe “Web 3.0” is different enough?


  • I always feel like I’m in the minority when it comes to action sequences. They are 80% of the time the most boring part of a movie. Plot and character development don’t happen during them, and usually (especially for the big climactic fight scene) the outcome is certain.

    For me, the only exceptions are generally:

    Fights that the heroes might actually lose. (So usually, the fights earlier in the show)

    Fights where there are good character moments or development during it. (The Princess Bride sword fight scene is a classic for this)

    Fights with lots of good strategy/tactics in them. (Game of Thrones had a lot of this, at least prior to the last season)

    There are a very few fight scenes I’ll actually enjoy outside of these ones, and it feels like many action movies don’t bother with any of this.
