How to leverage the interest graph and your own curiosity to spider out and follow as many people interested in the same idea as you - and possibly discover experts that other experts are not aware of. https://t.co/7PJwtXdhqT

@alexeyguzey How to do on twitter:Search for "to:username [words from X domain]" and find people with insightful ideas.Then see who else they follow similar to username.I don't bother asking b/c network ties are more likely to surface non-peers that username may not know about.

@balajis The trick is finding the key people in the network who act as leaders for the particular space of ideas and simulate them. Cuts down on the search space tremendously.

I have no idea what I am doing with my life, but I spent the day posting about creating a machine god that can simulate human beings to the point of recreating progressive's "flo" in VR chat to troll people with dabbing.

Complex meta-structures aren't ever going to form if you don't simulate *POPULATIONS* of agents interacting in the same space. This kind of simulation is so rare that I've only ever seen 3 examples of it in practice (aside from game simulations).https://t.co/g4swQ1JlSN

I tried to picture clusters of information as they moved thru the computer. What did they look like? I kept dreaming of a world I thought I'd never see...https://t.co/XCWOBsJgVE

"Twitter following is a meaningless metric. People listen to you in proportion to your insight and authenticity. Cultivate insight by following your genuine intellectual curiosity. Cultivate authenticity by giving up the need for social approval."— N. Ravikant

Have you tried to get the attention of people who could help you solve the problem?https://t.co/bpPstjZFW2

Have you tried setting a curiosity trap for interesting people to drive them toward an idea that you actually want them to consume, because you think they might be able to solve the problem?
