From what I've seen and heard, the upcoming Avengers Doomsday movie has so many people in it, it's like a modern-day Cannonball Run movie from the 70's. #doomsday #cannonballrun

Over the next several months, AI (writ large) is gonna get blamed for a lot of bad shit it didn't do, in addition to some bad shit it DID do. I can only see the social headwinds increasing even if the capital markets only see tailwinds. That's not sustainable.

Is the political system capable of redistributing AI-driven abundance quickly enough to prevent destabilizing inequality?

Should have called them "Bifrost microbes" if they are a bridge between Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes. 🤔

Biological evolution requires only four ingredients: 1) Variation 2) Selection pressure 3) Iteration 4) Retention of improvements. Agentic frameworks with tools now have all four. What happens when evolution itself becomes programmable, fast, and cheap?

AI is like a knowledge work backhoe. You can offset a team of guys with shovels, or you can dig up cable. It's kind of up to you. #AI

Unsolicited opinion: Chat GPT5. More thoughtful, slower and still wrong 50% of the time. It also seems testy... Maybe they should try switching it to a high fiber diet. #chatgpt5

Aging sometimes feels like a slow decent into curmudgeonliness. What tipped you off today? Was there a particular “get off my lawn” moment, or just the creeping realization that you're starting to understand why your dad always grumbled about the thermostat?

This 👇👇👇 Micropayments... I'd probably pay more overall annually if I was able to pay for access to either just the article or the whole site for just a day. This would put me in control of the spend and what interests me.

I think the days of folks who strictly write code have left us when the age of books died. Enter the new age of the application architect, whose job it is to know how all these AI generated routines and OOTB frameworks make cohesive and performant application. 1/2 🤔💭

x X has ~18m daily USA users. @bsky.app, ~1.5m. Is it worth 20 MINS a day to proactively recruit and bring your friends, neighbors,relatives, businesses, anyone who is or could be a user, to @bsky.app? If Bluesky ends up with more users than the others, you destabilize musk, zuck, trump.

Information hygiene is crucial for investors (and incredibly important for Democracies) We humans have a tendency to believe bullshit, especially if it fits into our preferred ideological narratives or reflects our self and/or tribal identities. It's an expensive cognitive foible...

Please fix the UX of the app on an iPad. Horizontal layout is horrible, it pops to widescreen and then starts scrolling. I’m glad I have a laptop. #bluesky

I've been doing Master Data Management/Hub Data integration design and implementation for about 20 years. Are there any other folks working in this area on here? Would love to hear some interesting stories on overcoming the challenges and how the implementation saved $ or reduced data friction.
