Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 11/09/2026It's pretty cool reading about how Apple just invented foldable phones from my seventh-generation foldable phone. 010
Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 09/06/2026I'm very busy so instead of making me read your 8-page strategy document, can you just send me the three bullet points that you fed to ChatGPT to write it? 000
Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 31/05/2026Is there a part of the internet that has not been taken over by AI slop and artificial discourse yet? Feels like even Reddit joined the dead internet in the past couple months. FB, X, and LI were dead long ago but have gotten even worse... 000
Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 06/05/2026Plans are essential, but planning is worthless. Leaders need a button they can press that automatically creates a plan for any situation without the unnecessary toil of learning or understanding. Introducing EisenhowerAI.

Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 10/04/2026Hot take: "bias towards action" is really just "bias against accuracy" with better marketing. 000
Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 27/01/2026Compulsory RTO is great because after working with people for years and building professional relationships based on mutual respect now you get to constantly be aware of their mucus situation and know what their farts smell like. 000
Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 16/01/2026I'm a generally a very firm supporter of the First Amendment, but I do think that the government should be able to restrict a person's ability to use [Action Required] in the subject line of work email they send. 000

Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 22/10/2025Evidently we've reached the "how can we use it to sell more shitters?" phase of the AI hype cycle. 010

Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 23/09/2025You really don't have to tell people that you are against Antifa. First, there's already an existing word for that. And second, we already know. 000
Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 10/09/2025I love how late summer in the Pacific Northwest has fully turned into "the sun is obscured by wildfire smoke and the air smells like an ashtray" season all within the past decade and we all just kind of rolled with it. 000
Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 09/09/2025"The data is clear..." Oh awesome! Then I'm sure that the data - with all of its clarity - and the methodology in which you analyzed it to form your conclusion is included in your assessment, right? RIGHT? 000

Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 14/07/2025I feel like the Discover feed here is a potentially valid research tool for simulating dementia because, while I recognize almost all of these words, I have absolutely no clue who any of you are or what the hell any of you are talking about and it leaves me frustrated and angry. 000
Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 09/07/2025Two things that are almost certainly happening in your organization today in the name of operational efficiency are: 1. An increase in system complexity. 2. The shedding of expertise and acquired knowledge of how the system works. What might be a highly predictable outcome of this? 010
Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 02/07/2025It's sort of like how in medicine we understand the improper application of antibiotics has an inverse effect and ends up creating antibiotic-resistant "super bugs". Improper application of "reliability" work ends up creating lack of resilient behaviors in the org and creates "super failures". 132
Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 01/07/2025Using the immense power of AI to solve the world's most important and complex problems... like making email relevant again. 020
Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Yup! I think the trick there would be to approach your Reliability improvements with an eye towards increasing resilient behaviors. You worked on the code and now have a better understanding of its intent. Do others? How is this knowledge shared? 010
Sean Klein @seanklein.bsky.social · 26/06/20253 inconvenient truths: - Reliability is not the same as Resiliency. - Improvements to your Reliability do not improve your Resiliency. - Improvements to your Reliability very often *decrease* Resiliency. 110
