Being raised on a farm, I had a saying, "In the forest, every sound means something." A twig snap means a deer is watching. A bird that appears on the path suddenly may seem delightful, but she might be luring you away from her nest. Things are rarely what people present them as. Look for causes

I once dated a Finnish man. We remained friends and moved on. Over the Pandemic, he began to say things that were increasingly worrying about "the right kind of immigrants." Then one day he said he supported Trump because he felt he would be "tough on Russia." Americans are not the only sheep.

Oh to have the gumption to tell someone to "call me when you break up." I look forward isekai-ing backwards into my own life.

I actually love the bubble of isolation this gives me in the office, putting the hustle at arms length and giving me literal blinders so I can focus. The wide-screen blocks out so many distractions with my current task. And the privacy of no one looking over my shoulder!

"We can build something really cool with the tools available today that might bring us a little closer to each other… in a good way that can’t be monetised or enshittified." 👉🏽 I interviewed @nearestnabors.com ahead of their talk at Pixel Pioneers Bristol on 20 June: pixelpioneers.co/blog/speaker...

There is no middle-class in San Francisco. There are rich people, and there are destitute people, but the middle class doesn't dwell here. I've been visiting San Francisco for almost two decades, and each time I come back, I meet fewer middle class people who LIVE here.

Disney and Goldman Sachs have rolled back their DEI programs. Can't say I'm surprised. No more org diversity KPI for executives and back to investing in companies with boards of just suited and booted white men. (I'm not making this up.)

I truly appreciate the amount of bullshit happening in the world right now. However, I've worked my ass off to come this far. It'll take a lot more than this to make me turn back now. Come on, there's still work to be done.

I didn't realize the US's climate policy would cause international banks to give up on Net zero goals :/ And Google and Meta spiking their carbon emissions with their AI investments. This is sad.

Watched the Substance. That was very good. (Also so many butts. Half the time it felt like the camera was stuck at butt level. I did not mind. But it was an interesting artistic choice: butts)

PSA time: What should we use for authentication in the age of AI agents? Do we need fancy services? MOAR standards?? Turns out: no, OAuth is good enough. You just need granular permissions at personal and organizational levels. Thanks, OAuth creators, for your over-engineering

The verdict on the Apple Vision Pro after spending an evening with it: It definitely feels like it comes from the future in the same way iPhones originally did. Unfortunately, the price point means it's further out of reach for enthusiasts than the iPhone was.
