here also is a super-short text from Land that may help you to understand some of his perspective. it's not like adding R&D to conventional theories of production and consumption is rocket science, it's just that unlike a lot of earlier thinkers, Land is uniquely equipped to talk about capital in connection with

a) computers, and
b) computers linked on the internet.

this much is also a good primer for what i think is his magnum opus, which is the Crypto book, which explains his fetishism for the Nakamoto paper in much greater detail. he really is actually a very conservative writer, in many ways, in spite of all the madness of his earlier years. and he has read, with great fidelity, both the Austrians and the Marxists and updated a hybrid of both of those for the 21C.

as much as he is memed on /lit/ for being a madman who dreams of Lovecraft and the rest it really is just a very sober analysis of monetary theory by way of some unorthodox sources. that he posts like your drunk uncle on Twitter doesn't take any shine off of what he has contributed to the overall discussion, imho. he's just a legit Purple Sweater-tier philosopher writing brilliant shit.
