::rubs head:: are we REALLY here already? At the "imagine life without AI" when it was like a second ago? Or is this just the folks at the very front of the hype cycle? Millennials might have to save this mess. We know life before and after internet so let's stay on our toes.

Witnessing @kimcrayton1.bsky.social in her element while writing this book was an added bonus to all the great information and thoughts that she offers our world. We won't move forward in a better direction until we know how we got here. It's up to us to shift. Book: bookshop.org/p/books/the-...
Kim Crayton [She/Her]@kimcrayton1.bsky.social · 4d agoThirty years ago I started asking a question the people around me did not have language for and the institutions I worked inside did not have a category for. The question was not complicated. It was: why does this keep happening regardless of who is involved?

Fever having to bring this week's noise to Minnesota is an added effect.
I can't stand how the bullshit around Fever has not only taken the focus away from the talented teammates, like beloved Mitchell, but is causing way more damage, the way the Black women of this league end up shouldering the higher-volume bullshit drummed up by these white woman antics. ☹️

I sometimes stop to think about my jadedness and how it got this deep. But then a lovely soul puts out a timeline of a company I worked for, with its unprecedented financial shenanigans, and I remember "OH YES I've seen a lot of bullshit. That's why." brendonbeebe.substack.com/p/what-happe...

NPR@npr.org · 4d agoPublic health nurses have been pulled from other duties in Washtenaw County, MI, to call hundreds of people sick with cyclosporiasis, and try to help them remember everything they ate in recent days.

Somehow having a harder time going "back to normal" after this second maternity leave and it's prob just cuz things got more :: vague gesturing :: in tech. Here's to tomorrow and getting back to the grind.
This is, imo, why the idea that these people are motivated solely by profit is never going to be enough to help you fully understand what is going on in tech. Yeah, they love money, but if it’s all they were pursuing, they would also be keenly interested in *you*. They’re not.
I know it's corny to brag about being blocked, but catching one from DHH back in the good ol days of Twitter was a lovely "called it" moment. And here we still are.
Anil Dash@anildash.com · last wk.Just in case you still use any Basecamp products, DHH is crashing out about his AI product gently pointing out that it’s bad for him to have extermination fantasies about the Roma people.
