Formative culture.

I will believe Ive/Altman are building sims diamond for OpenAI until they actually show something

The LinkedIn discourse on this is incredible like “let’s normalise failure” and “every founders nightmare” and my dude the c team were cooking the books this is fraud 💀 Sucks massively for the people below them and hope they find new gigs soon.

"nearly every aspect of society has been designed by people unfamiliar with not only the experience of living in poverty but the experience of living paycheck to paycheck" as relevant in the UK as the US tbh. probably the most powerful thing I've read in a while www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

I came to an arsenal pub for peace and yet-

can someone email nicholas britell so we can ask for the real version of the version of Niamos! that plays at Mons wedding in Andor? because all the cover versions are... fine?? and its a weird omission from the OSTs :/

always amusing watching devs refuse to engage with Miro, or Visio "I have paint, lets go" :(

Had never thought I'd live to see a Murderbot adaptation (Martha Wells, go read the books) but here we are and it is glorious

😂😂 “People do not like using this software” @reckless.bsky.social to workdays CEO. Actually burst out laughing jfc. I feel very seen.

Ngl I find On’s “soft wins” marketing aggressively off-putting. Celebrate mid? Is this where we are at?

@okwonga.bsky.social I think this was written by @oilysailor.bsky.social especially for you 😂 www.nytimes.com/athletic/627... Mohamed Salah’s Liverpool career (so far) in extremely niche and obscure stats

genuine question? does the home office have any... fun, cool, positive projects that I'm missing? of all the gov departments I don't really see much positivity coming from news stories about them? is that just the HO vibe?

Microsoft Teams. The best application ever made.

not sure I've hit anywhere near enough of my career goals but the Switch 2 is coming it's been real y'all

@cranz.bsky.social waiting for your is plex doing a sonos piece or maybe wait for the downgraded apple tv app to drop

Plex is having a real Sonos moment right now with these new apps

…what?

Severance is out just saying

Oscar should have ballot: - Best Pic: Brutalist - Best Director: Corbet (Brutalist) - Actor: Brody - Actress: Maddison - Sup Actor: Culkin - Sup Actress: Saldana - Cinematography: Crawley (Brutalist) - Editing: Emerson (Conclave) - Ad Screenplay: Baker (Anora) - Or Screenplay: Ross (Nickel Boys)

Sean Baker was not the Best Director in that race. Happy for him, but nah.

Thissss

Thought experiment. What would get young people to vote in numbers large enough for a party to ditch the triple lock on pensions and offset the votes they’d lose? Does such a thing even exist? Doubt this will get enough reach but I’m hella curious.

Oh right The Brutalist really is that good

Todays big question. If you are delivering a presentation (online... but people do this offline too)... why have you not pressed presentation mode? You're not editing this presentation live, wasting screen space... I am sort of judging you if I see 'Click to insert subtitle' this is low effort cmon

The confidence marvel must have in f4 to do this

Watching the weeknd evolve into the most consistent pop performers of our generations has been a trip

The Pitt has so much plot per minute I actually want to work in emergency medicine now :/

Goodreads currently has a UX Designer job going for a lot of money right now so can… anyone apply please

hey people. do you ever check if someone has a meeting before booking them? its a 2 person meeting. you can see my calendar are you just lazy? do you like being told no? let me into your process here because rn I just think you're idiotic but maybe I'm wrong.

"LOOK WE JUST WANT TO KNOW WHO THE GOOD BOY IS"

Happy severance day yall.

this by is everything @kvanaren.bsky.social. captures why this show feels so important. watch The Pitt. plz.

THE MOST IMPORTANT TV SHOW THIS YEAR* *in that we as a society need this model to work and if people don't want it I will riot
