Humans follow the bears. Bears follow the squirrels. Squirrels follow the birds. Birds follow bees. But the cow milk thing is still pretty wild.

What if we just assume every Cornell student that went Greek was a rapist unless they can prove otherwise? Actually what if we focused on the fraternity system as a whole?

Spooky Shopkeeper: The price may be more than you expect to pay.

Nothing to see here...just the President of the United States inviting the country he illegally declared war on to "take out" 2 major American cities. If that's not treason, what is? 🤬 Law enforcement won't hold him accountable, but we WILL! The beginning of the end is on November 3rd. #VOTE-BLUE 🌊

The "audiobooks aren't real books" people met their match in Ming: > Those who considered themselves real scholars and true connoisseurs of the book did not consider imprints to be real books. Under the elitist attitudes of the time, "printed books were for those who did not truly care about books"

Remember: Wealth cannot be separated from power. We're seeing in real time how the extreme concentration of wealth is distorting our politics, rigging markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people. Taxing the rich isn't just an economic issue, it's a defense of our democracy.

Ballpoint pen and colored pencil. 

At the top of the piece we see the delicately drawn branches and leaves of an apple tree. Just beneath the tree limbs, a bat is flying with one of the green apples in its mouth. This is when the morphing begins, reader. A sequence of 13 drawings show the bat morphing into a teeny witch (with completion of the morph around drawing #9). The morphing creates a spiral leading us to the center of the page where the little witch is running towards her basket filled with apples. It’s likely she’ll re-morph into a bat again and the morphing pattern will continue.

The two rules of software development: - Up-front thinking is Waterfall; we can only learn by shipping - There's no room on the roadmap for rework, so everything needs to be done right the first time Bosses love AI because they think it can give them up-front certainty on the cheap. But it can't.

The fake double diamond is dead. The real double diamond is immortal.
AI is not a substitute for divergent thinking, and the false certainty it gives will never save you from having to iterate.

Chuck Jones' Rule 8. "Whenever possible, make gravity the Coyote’s greatest enemy."
The trolley problem. The road runner is on one of the trolley tracks, and Wile E. Coyote is in charge of the switch.

When he throws the switch, the trolley falls vertically through the tracks. A trick of the perspective means he is actually underneath, not beside the track, so he is flattened by the trolley.
