Reddit有討論:

原文的意思是討伐這些tech billionaires, 但我的感慨是他們搞的這個idea festivals 邀請的這些人們都是各行各業most brilliant minds, 碰撞一下多麽有趣。 (聰明,或者有創造力,或者有錢這些都是硬通貨啊,當然問題是他們隻跟自己人混)

而我如果去想象他們的生活,估計是東宮娘娘烙大餅。讀下來這篇,我的感慨是他們的intellect

 

節選在這裏:
In 2018, I was a guest at Jeff Bezos’s Campfire retreat in Santa Barbara, California. It’s an annual event in which the Amazon founder invites 80-plus guests—celebrities, artists, intellectuals, and anyone else he thinks is interesting—to spend three nights at a private resort. I had recently been approached by Amazon about moving my film-and-television business over from Disney, and although I had declined (or maybe 
because I had declined), Bezos’s team invited me to Campfire, perhaps keen to impress me with the power of his reach.

“Why am I here?” asked the 1980s hair-metal singer. “Why am I here?” asked the Pulitzer Prize–winning novelist, the famous anthropologist, the presidential historian. Only the movie stars and the billionaires didn’t ask: They had done this kind of thing before. It turns out there is a circuit of idea festivals. Many tech billionaires host one, and if you find yourself on the right list, you can spend much of the year traveling the world, eating Wagyu, and discussing how to make the world a better place with the most famous talk-show host in history.
