Without cover

Written By Manuel Molina

The moment you put your work in the open, you lose your armor.

No policy to hide behind. No process to cite. No credentials to point at.

Just the work. And the person receiving it.

That’s why it feels dangerous.

Because once it’s out there, you don’t get to negotiate the outcome. You don’t get to explain it into being right. You don’t get to say, “That’s not what I meant.”

The power shifts.

Not to you. To the work.

Most people spend their lives building cover. Extra framing. Careful wording. Distance that feels safe.

Not because they lack talent. Because being seen without protection is expensive.

Real contribution doesn’t arrive padded. It can’t be defended. Only accepted or ignored.

And that’s the gift.

If you’re not a little exposed, you didn’t actually give anything away.

And if you still have all your excuses intact, you didn’t ship the work that mattered.

De 1993 a 1997, como directivo en InfoSel, formé parte del equipo que desarrolló la primer red de acceso a Internet en México, instalando nodos de acceso y oficinas comerciales en 32 ciudades del país. Desde entonces he dedicado mi vida a investigar las formas en que la tecnología influye en el comportamiento humano.

Estoy particularmente interesado en redes, plataformas y protocolos con el potencial de:

1) Ampliar el acceso al conocimiento (educación, aprendizaje, análisis de datos, nuevas ideas)

2) Ampliar el acceso al capital (sistema financiero actual, crypto, capital humano, infraestructura tecnológica)

3) Ampliar el acceso al bienestar (salud, wellness, comunidad, entretenimiento, diversión)
