If you've been with Flow Venture Weekly since the beginning, I'd like to explain why I'm changing from talking about content businesses and solopreneurship to exploring civilizational engineering, future governance, and speculative fiction, and invite you to stay for what's coming next. The Shift That Wasn't Really a Shift Until the 24th issue, I wrote about building aligned businesses, finding...

Attention Systems Engineering - Modeling the Focus Economy Read on my page / Read time: 3.5 minutes INTRO In 2025, attention is the scarcest resource and the most engineered variable in business. The winners don’t “grab” attention; they design systems that earn, direct, compound, and regenerate it.

"Attention Economy" is giving birth to an unified, predictive discipline:...
