Maybe it means the symptoms are invisible, but the effects (e.g. death) aren’t? It’s really badly written though!

Dickie Bush @dickiebush

This is Jeff Bezos's favorite book.
He's been rereading it for 25 years straight, and it inspired his most famous decision-making model.
Here are the 7 lessons from "The Remains of the Day" that helped Dickie Bush - @ @dickiebush • 13h 
That's when Bezos noticed internet usage growing 2,300% per year.
He faced a choice:
• Stay in his golden handcuffs
• Risk everything on the internet
The butler's story of regret haunted his decision. Dickie Bush @dickiebush • 13h
Lesson 4: Emotion drives the biggest breakthroughs
Stevens suppressed his emotions, leading to regret.
Bezos channeled emotion into:
• Customer obsession
• Long-term thinking
• Building trust
Logic plans. Emotion executes.

There’s some kind of career optimization coaching bro on Twitter who has translated Remains of the Day into a business book parable webinar presentation and it might be the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen

Me looking embarrassed in a black blazer and flowered top crouched down at a respectful distance from actor and author BJ Novak who’s sitting behind a table at a book signing, we’re surrounded by Edinburgh fringe posters.

If You Want To Be Friends, Then Why Aren’t You Friendly? A look at one of the most alarming and pressing problems of our age: the much-lamented fact that "the left" won't be friends with "the right," over "political views."

I’m late to @juliusgoat.bsky.social’s post, which deconstructs calls for “the left” to be friends with “the right”. It builds to what we’re actually being asked to be; I won’t spoil it because its power comes from reading everything leading to it. armoxon.substack.com/p/if-you-wan...

Anything with a hat is truly posh. And the weirder the colour pallete the posher it is. Navy? Basic. Bottle green? Slightly posh. Mustard yellow and sky blue with a boater? At least £30,000 / year.

Is it even September if you’re not doing image searches of school badges? (Schools went back weeks ago here but many of my old classmates are now in England)

You’ve just reminded me that we have this but haven’t played it (both enjoy board games but always in larger groups!)
