Ben Thompson refers to this naivete from tech executives as the pollyannish assumption. Of course, like the Force, status is equally potent as fuel for the darkest, cruelest parts of human nature. There’s no questioning of what the downsides of connecting everyone and enabling instant sharing of information among anyone might be. In the immortal words of Obi-Wan Kenobi, "Status is what gives a Jedi his power. It's an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together."

In fact, overlooking this fundamental aspect of human nature arguably landed us here, at the end of this first age of social network goliaths, wondering where it all went haywire. If we think of these networks as marketplaces trading only in information, and not in status, then we're only seeing part of the machine. The menacing phone call has been coming from inside the house all along.
In incremental game development, every step should be only marginally more interesting. Theprintat the end helps us if the game crashes because of a bug—it will print out a traceback to the Jupyter output. PursuedPyBear is a game programming library optimized for teaching, and I recently used it to teach my children more aboutmy favorite programming language.
