As a professor I couldn’t agree more. I’ve been telling students the best thing they can do is start their own companies. I teach in a very entrepreneurial lay focused program, so many aren’t intimidated, but it’s hard telling students that just getting an A in my classes won’t guarantee a job.

I've been a big fan of @economist.com for awhile. It often seems like their outside but wide ranging perspective is able to be more objective, but the depth is still insightful.

For quick hit, wide ranging international news I still like The Intelligence from @economist.com www.economist.com/audio/podcas...

Agreed.
I think my biggest interest in Substack is audience acquisition but the trade off doesn’t seem worth it.
Staying static (I’m on Hugo now) just means my own effort to make sure new folks find my content.
So it’s a “less writing time vs more control” trade off.

Agreed. To me it’s largely ownership/avoiding lock in vs UI sugar and easier audience acquisition. I’m mostly trying to gauge if enough people are on Substack that I won’t need to work for an audience too hard, given static means it’s 100% on me to repost to BlueSky, LinkedIn, etc.

This is my inclination as well. I also don’t like lock in, but the built in reader acquisition is appealing, especially as so many folks move that way… but they did the same with a half a dozen products before. Nice to get confirmation my gut was in the right direction.

Do we have to do predictions or can we just stick to the cheese? Seems far more likely to be satisfying and accurate 🧀

Legit. I’d watch a TBP twitch stream 3v3.

Yeah, in my experience I find Claude super useful, great for coding, but most restrictive on NatSec topics.

I’ve hit this myself. rolandroland/llama3.1-uncensored saved the day.

Oh, couldn't agree more, and to be fair I wouldn't buy mine again regardless of certain C level execs, but yes, ultimately this is what will really drive change.

Any love for a CTI author and sometime... whatever we're calling writing on BSky?

I'd love to be included, not early career in general, but certainly early in my academic career

Then again I might just be cynically trying to avoid the effort of engaging with another platform.

Hi Ryan! And I think you may be a rare exception (aren’t you always!) but frankly I see a lot of pontification and complaining rather than action, same as X became, same as most of Mastodon, I just wonder if the microblogging singularity doesn’t just always end with an echo chamber of complaining.

I don’t know. Feels like we did more stuff back then rather than just talking about stuff.
