Good read but not a strong fit for writing

Quick Take

This is a well-written but very niche cultural/political piece about white male millennials in creative industries. While Brian might find it intellectually interesting, it doesn't connect meaningfully to his core domains of tech, AI, side projects, or productivity—and the tone/subject matter doesn't align with his practical, solution-oriented writing style.

Relevant Domains

Engineering craft/architecture/productivity (tangentially - workplace dynamics) Side projects/automation/earning from skills (very tangentially - alternative paths)
