From FSGO x Logic: a Stanford professor's spirited dismantling of Silicon Valley's intellectual origins

Adrian Daub's What Tech Calls Thinking is a lively dismantling of the ideas that form the intellectual bedrock of Silicon Valley. Equally important to Silicon Valley's world-altering innovation are the language and ideas it uses to explain and justify itself. And often, those fancy new ideas are simply old motifs playing dress-up in a hoodie. From the myth of dropping out to the war cry of "disruption," Daub locates the Valley's supposedly original, radical thinking in the ideas of Heidegger and Ayn Rand, the New Age Esalen Foundation in Big Sur, and American traditions from the tent revival to predestination. Written with verve and imagination, What Tech Calls Thinking is an intellectual refutation of Silicon Valley's ethos, pulling back the curtain on the self-aggrandizing myths the Valley tells about itself.

FSG Originals Logic dissects the way technology functions in everyday lives. The titans of Silicon Valley, for all their utopian imaginings, never really had our best interests at heart: recent threats to democracy, truth, privacy, and safety, as a result of tech's reckless pursuit of progress, have shown as much. We present an alternate story, one that delights in capturing technology in all its contradictions and innovation, across borders and socioeconomic divisions, from history through the future, beyond platitudes and PR hype, and past doom and gloom. Our collaboration features four brief but provocative forays into the tech industry's many worlds, and aspires to incite fresh conversations about technology focused on nuanced and accessible explorations of the emerging tools that reorganize and redefine life today.

More of a travel kit
Size: 4 Piece Set
I love this stuff. Smells great makes my beard soft and my skin not itchy/flaky. The beard Shave loom is by far the best shaving cream loop that i've ever used. These bottles are Really small and would work really well as a travel kit. But Jack black's products are fantastit's . just do it. stop, what are you waiting for.

Not that Jack Black!
Size: 4 Piece Set
I bought this set assuming it was the actor/musician Jack Black’s skincare line. I figured a bearded celebrity would know all about quality beard care products. But actually it is not even named after a real person, it’s just a brand name. In fact, Jack Black the celebrity said he tried Jack Black products and they gave him a rash! Not a big deal though. I haven’t had such a reaction. The products smell fine, not overbearing, and seem to be working well. Cons: not exactly economical since it’s very small tubes. The beard oil pump is easy to overdo— Press too hard on the pump and you’ll end up with too much oil on your hands. A little goes a long way.

Wash/lube is travel/mini size
Size: 4 Piece Set
Did not realize beard lube and wash are mini/travel size but that’s my fault for not checking.
