Great review of TROMjaro from ZDnet - zdnet.com/article/tromjaro-is-…
Amongst AI written, ad driven content nowadays, it is nice to see some genuine reviews. Super happy with the fact that the author also talks about the trade-free idea a bit and even mentions VideoNeat.

I have read "The Origin of most problems" book, and have read most of "The Money game and beyond" book but I unfortunately didn't finish it. Now I'm not much of a reader or anything, but both of those books were really fucking impressive and I remember feeling such joy and excitement reading those. I also read the "The ugliness of beauty" book which was a shorter one. I can only imagine the amount of effort you must've put into creating these books man, you not only had to research about these topics and write the books but you also designed them in such a beautiful manner. That is genuinely an achievement and something to be proud of 🙂
And personally I think perhaps I should start reading more books and such, there are some problems like my eye strain issues and such which hold me back but I realize that getting into a habit of reading will do me good long term.
And about the device.... I read these on an old tablet device that I had with a 10 inch 720p

I read these on an old tablet device that I had with a 10 inch 720p display, I haven't turned it on for a long time now not sure if it still works lol 😅 But yeah the resolution wasn't great for such a big screen, it was all I had at the time.... The form factor of a tablet was still pretty great for reading a book tho, I could hold it in my hand like an actual book 😄

I would like to know what other format than video would be better suited for new TROM content? I understand that these books may be hard to read unless you do it on a laptop of decent screen. But on the other hand these books allow me to fully express myself via the design.
So tricky...
But if you have ideas let me know.

Making video content would be an obvious choice these days but I understand it can be a lot of work. A middle ground between the two might be Audio books or a podcast style format, however this can be limiting if you wanna include some visuals. I think technically it's possible to include some attachments along with your audio but if your content is predominantly visual then yeah this might not be the best option.
BTW, I will also say that one other advantage of the podcast format in particular is that it's one of the only media that isn't controlled by a single big tech platform and their algorithms. I think Spotify and Apple podcasts have tried to make it their walled garden but failed, almost every podcast is available through RSS feeds even today.

in reply to Rokosun • •For me podcasts do not work in terms of creating them. Maybe if you have a cool voice and clear, may be more interesting. But this is not for me. I am also a very visual person and the way I designed our books was a great way to express myself.
Will see....
:P

Yeah I understand about the voice, if I think about it I would also get very self conscious about my voice if I were to sit in front of a mike to record a podcast lol 😅 And about you being a visual person, yeah that's what I was thinking how you expressed yourself so clearly with some simple figure drawings in your last blog post - that made me realize that this is your thing haha 😄 So audio won't help you with that.....

in reply to Tio • • •Amazing how you compress so much relevant knowledge into each of the books and I couldn't be happier to have translated most of them into german - it was a journey that I enjoyed so much 😊
Looking forward to new TROM content and materials however they might be 😉

in reply to aaron • • •I know everyone talks about the origin of most problems book but I feel like the money game and beyond book was just as good and eye opening. I honestly don't remember why I didn't finish reading that book, I think I had to stop due to exams or something - or else there's no way I'd stop reading something that captivating. I should probably go back and read these books sometime 🙂

in reply to Rokosun • • •Especially since the last parts were so captivating for me.
First chapter is a summary about fucked up the past and our current world is and why, second chapter about different ideas that people proposed to create something better and how they did end up in the world.
Third chapter is about what really works and how we can "approach" this world - how to be scientific about the "disease" that exists in the world and "treat" "it". I love all parts and it is written so well :)

in reply to aaron • • •I think I have read most of the book already, because I remember the analogy using aging as a disease and comparing it with our society. Also one of the things that really impressed me in the book is how it answers a lot of the questions that would naturally arise in the readers mind, like how to handle scarce resources - the book talks about the example of organ donation and how that is distributed based on some ethical standards humans came up with.
