Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) is the neutral and open foundation built on transparency, collaboration, and standardization to advance the public interest in agentic AI innovation.

A heckuva starter project, I think? I was privileged to help folks on the launch of the Agentic AI foundation (aaif.io). LinkedIn post: www.linkedin.com/posts/cdibon...

Yeah, we were both attached to the show after the first season. Danny's contributions in season 2 were pretty terrific.

Technical Credit Scores Code Fico? Equicodefaxunion? How I think about the scourge that is Technical Debt.

I promise this isn't about Google Reader, despite the footnote that mentions it...

Dungeon Crawler Ethan Mollick In which I draw a strained analogy with the barest of connective tissue...

I've been enjoying the Dungeon Crawler Carl series of books by Matt Dinniman. The way he interacts with his fans/readers shares commonalities with how @emollick.bsky.social interacts with his audience... admittedly this might also just be me talking about DCC.

Hey! That's terrific! Congratulations!

Well, did you add Guac to your Bloody Mary?

A cute bunny in my yard.

So. These dudes? Totally fearless. Which is a completely reasonable assessment of my intent.

Not wrong.

60 Hours a week? How about 4 uniterrupted hours a day? ..or...the AGI meetings will continue until morale improves.

I have, well, reacted predictably to that whole "60 hours a week thing " from Sergey... open.substack.com/pub/cdibona/...

Knowledge Anchoring within Deepseek. ...or how a cute conversation with deepseek went a little overboard

A light, fun, story to get your mind off of (waves hands) all that nonsense. I had a little talk with deepseek , see... it's really interesting to see llms hallucinate...

State Department Intake Thoughts... In which I talk about days gone by, and how much I think about my friends in federal service in the age of muskrump mismanagement of government. Doge? Seriously?

I , as you might imagine, have thoughts about the shitshow that is doge and the fed.... though I pollute my thoughts with reminisces (how many plural s' or i's do I add to this word?) of my early career.

Sadly, I think they already claimed JD VyVance.

I don't remember them, but that was a long long time ago, man :-)

Just back Cory Doctorow's new book/ebook kickstartery thing: www.kickstarter.com/projects/doc... . @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy never let me down....

Remember the full page ad when Smiths apologized for having to be open sundays?

Yeah, it was insane. Today is nice too, but Tuesday was....wow.

And here's my legally required pic from Supreme at Alta.

As you might expect, I've been up LCC. I donated to the patrol fund two or three years ago after a whoopsie that dislocated my right shoulder. They were terrific . I'm really glad Vail came to their senses, though all of this could have been avoided literally years ago.

It's absurdly popular. When driving through Montana/Big Sky last week it was like one big cosplay for the show....

Where were you? What's next? A NCIS gravy boat?

I tried to save it, I was unsuccessful. He didn't want anything competing with g+....they starved reader, then killed it because it looked skinny.....
