Dining out with a reservation is now an excruciation of reminders and confirmations before the meal, and incessant nagging for “feedback” afterwards.

If you don't believe that this party is disastrously unequipped to handle the dire straits of this moment, I think you at least need to entertain the question, "What would change my mind?"

I was in a job once where an executive floated purchasing that surveillance software that watches what people do throughout the day. In retrospect I wish I asked if that means they would increase the pay for folks found to be working more than 40 hours.

I do not think “big tech” is bending a knee to anyone. They’re doing this because they want to do it and believe it’s right. They just have the social permission they always wanted.

I have to be honest and also confess I cannot for the life of me figure out why they keep making appearances. Like, thank god, because we get clips like this. But why not just hole up? How do they benefit from this?

It’s so bizarre to me that this is a permissible response from an elected official, even if it’s obviously farce. How is “I haven’t heard anything about a major governmental decision” any better than “Oh yeah I’m actually all for that”?

Coming around to the fact that, especially when it comes to community, processes are built for about 90% of the cases, to buy you the space and patience for the remaining 10%--the moments when you need to give people grace and make exceptions.

I admire Coates so much because I know I’m not as intelligent as he is. I don’t mean this as self-flagellation. He’s just brilliant. I often wonder if Klein can sense the same and needs the kind of message a lot of people want to hear because a large audience helps you avoid that truth.

The more I hear people break down how they use AI agents and how revolutionary they are, the more it sounds like what they actually needed were more scalable processes.

For our own individual processes (insofar as they exist), we follow them with discipline because they’re tailored to our preferences. More often than not, the moment a team is involved, someone if not *everyone* is playing improvisational jazz with the process.

casio keys @casiokeys.bsky.social · 23/09/2025

The people who build the processes want to believe in what they built, so they explain it to leaders as if everyone actually follows the process. Leaders are far removed from the processes, so they only really see how it’s supposed to work, now how it actually works.

A practical reason the vision for AI adoption seems unserious is the collective overestimation of our processes. You can tell an agent “Put X information into Y format and update Z tracker” but only if the information is documented, the format is consistent, and the tracker is up to date.

This feels a little like “pivot to video” in that I used to search something and get an article I could instantly control+f through for the information I want and now I need to wait as a disembodied voice stalls before it may or may not vaguely answer my question

I’d be very curious to know: How do these people define “immigrant”? What is an “immigrant” to them? Is it someone who moves to another country? How is that different than what we might call an “expat”? Is it about doing it “legally”? So we should make that process easier, right?

This isn’t even a bias thing! A colleague doing great work makes other colleague’s lives easier. I’d be *thrilled* if it led to better or faster work. The only thing that changed is their work got louder.

FWIW, I’ve worked with some colleagues who proudly and consistently post on LinkedIn about how they’re AI-powered and I noticed absolutely 0 change in their output. Did they produce things faster? Did they make better things? Nope. That’s the kind of thing you’d notice working closely with someone.

Don’t worry, we will make that decision in a time, place, and manner of our choosing. But the response will be continuous and it will meet the moment that is required.

Honest, serious question: What would Microsoft’s incentive be to reduce its revenue share? Microsoft—the company that now regularly lays people off and hikes its prices to increase its value—would give back the rights to IP it owns and profits it’s entitled to in order to…what?

I think an underrated booster of both AI use and positive AI rhetoric is the fact that a significant population of folks who were always competent and even very good professionals became headlining conference panelists overnight simply for even entertaining using it as a tool

I both believe as a political movement we need to better live our values of reform-over-punishment (see adrienne maree brown’s We Will Not Cancel Us!) and that repeating stuff like this and “middle America has been left behind” just makes these people expect to get their way with everything forever

My favorite legacy from a past job is the crusade I went on against rescheduling recurring meetings that landed on holidays to the next day back, which just turns a 4-day workweek into a “get 5 days of work done in 4” workweek.

The fact that the people spending the most money on making this happen can only speak in abstractions and apocalyptic predictions while rolling out the most obviously built-to-fail applications says to me this has always been a feature masquerading as a product.

A few random headlines from the last 24 hours are a reminder that the system of “law enforcement” only attempts to enforce *some* laws against *some* people. Being “tough on crime” always means ignoring crimes of the powerful while ruthlessly crushing vulnerable people and political targets.

Headlines about cops drinking and driving and banks supporting Epstein and lgbtq lawyer targeted by Trump and irs immunizing rich people for tax shelters.

Are people tacking that onto UTMs? Does ChatGPT automatically tack it on when you give it a link? Not sure. But if I clicked that link it would tell someone I got the link from ChatGPT when I absolutely did not.

I don't want to get all conspiracy theorist but I just accidentally discovered that someone used ChatGPT to write copy for an event invitation (okay, fine) but the registration link included a UTM source "from chatgpt" and now I'm wondering if "We're getting more traffic from ChatGPT" is bogus
