This is nuts to me. I’d never have predicted this outcome if asked on any day of the past twenty years.

@carnage4life cheers to the investment advisors who talked me out of buying each stock 20 years ago

I don't know if we can really blame McDonald's for Morgan Spurlocks death, but it sort of feels like we should

@TheBreadmonkey i certainly thought about it! I also thought big shark (the industry) got to Rob Stewart when I recently heard of his 2017 death

Some folks have been consistently rewarded for decades for doing things that, a) impress and please their peers, but b) simultaneously hold them back from the levels at which they could impress and please their peers even more.

They are basically caught in a classic hill-climbing problem. To get to the higher hill, which they are not even sure is higher, they will have to go down into the valley, and they can't see their way clear to trying that.

Self-awareness is a superpower.

@GeePawHill I live for the Valley, and i loath impressing and pleasing people

Lots of discussion about how Google has become garbage at pulling up helpful information... how are the alternatives doing? Does anyone actually use another search engine and like it? What do you like about it?

@justinesherry I’m using DuckDuckGo (for longer than I can remember) and the brave browser has started running AI on my queries (without my… prompting)… this has been a mostly positive experience. sometimes it’s not just wrong/hallucinating, it’s subtly, devilishly wrong, requiring deep insight to unpack… the kind of wrong that requires expertise, which is in direct conflict with the curiosity mode with which I search

My view is, we must accept, now is the worst time for interfaces in history

My 12 year old nephew is doing a school project where he has to interview someone about their career and then do a presentation with graphics.

I ask what graphics he has so far. "I have a guy drinking coffee at a computer"

Perfect.

one of the weird things about walking and taking public transit for the past two years is that I now HATE cars

HATE them

not just having them, but being in one. you want me to get in a car? to go to a place? instead of a bus/streetcar/train? what if I just didn't

@kf best attitude to hold, really
