Rothko is the greatest.

Too many people accept opinion as fact, or deem anyone capable of stringing together a complete sentence to be intelligent, which is why LLMs seem like a suitable replacement for the people around them.

Hosted an early Christmas dinner today. Nothing beats good company, whisky and cheeeeeeeeesssseee!

Today's session ruined me

The Zero Click Internet The internet is undergoing the biggest change since its inception. It's huge. And there is no going back. The web is changing into the Zero Click Internet,...

The web is changing into the Zero Click Internet, and it will change everything about how you do everything.

Zero Click Internet means you'll no longer click on links to find the content you want. In fact, much of the internet already works this way

I'm patiently waiting for the retro serif to come back in style.

This is figure 1, which shows strain-sharing across multiple relationship types.

A study in Nature of people living in 18 isolated Honduras villages shows gut microbiome strain sharing between many relationship types, including non-familial and non-household connections. Strain-sharing also extends to second-degree social connections. https://go.nature.com/4fBCp3j 🧪

This explains why Napoleon was terrible and why Gladiator 2 was underwhelming at best.

Had a read, nothing unexpected but still interesting.

This is such an important message. 🤝

The internet would work a lot better if there was a way to do a *recursive* deletion of a piece of information. Eg if it’s copied, it’s deleted in the copy. If used for training an llm, somehow purged from weights.

GDPR’s Right To Be Forgotten tries to implement this, but there are a lot of holes.

It's that time. Here's my 2024 music recap 🎶:

I almost died today. But seriously, I'm so out of shape at the moment

Inspired by Japan's flag redesign Amazon drops a new logo and app icon:

All I want is a new LOTR Game made with the same love and attention that Hogwarts Legacy received, is that too much to ask?

I just had a conversation with a colleague about setting up an organisation Bluesky account.

My reluctance is centered on the fact our audience are typically late adopters but at the very least, I'll set up a dormant account.

John Martin - The eve of the Deluge, 1840, oil painting.

Renowned for his dramatic and imaginative depictions of biblical and historical scenes. This work portrays a moment from the Old Testament, illustrating the impending Great Flood.

Very fitting given our current circumstances

I hate to be a cynic but once Bluesky goes public it will likey be majority owned by BlackRock, Vanguard and State street. I expect the "do good" ideology to begin disappearing from there on.

The Management Consultant on Substack I spent 20 years as a management consultant. Made Partner in my 30s. Led teams of 100+ people. Run 9-figure client portfolios. Lived and worked in 4 continents. I can tell you: success lies behin...

Work the system by Sam Carpenter taught me that elite performance is a consequence of elite systems just as THC says in his latest post

"I spent 20 yr as a management consultant

Success lies behind “systems”, and the ability to convince people to first accept them and then put them into practice"

Being better is a good strategy. Being different is even better.

Great post by Svyatoslav on Substack

If you’re cross-posting to Threads and BlueSky, the correct order is:

- Post to Threads
- Shorten for BlueSky and find three typos
- Post to BlueSky
- Back to Threads to edit typos out of original post

That'll be the first place they burn down

I've experienced emotions you people couldn't perceive

Chat GPT needs an "undo prompt" button. Yeah, I "prompted" slightly beyond the sweet spot and now my gpt responses read like a participant in a beauty pageant.

The stick drift on this generation of PlayStation controllers is insane. Literally last 4-6months then boom, drifting.

I can't take it 😭

Honestly, PS5 controllers are the worse for stick drift. They suck!

The reason facts don't change most people's opinions is because most people don't use facts to shape their opinions.
