Started watching ⭐️Pluribus⭐️ last night
After Breaking Bad & BCC, V. Gilligan has delivered again. A huge shock: an intriguing plot, humor, splendid direction with superb long takes, R. Seehorn acting 😍...
For an obvious allegory for our constant hallucination in the face of the world we live in

After ytd's discussion with Myriam, I felt like creating my own version of the post's #dataviz.
I'm not a fan of mirrored line charts 🤨🪞🤨 & that's putting it mildly. I understand why that choice is often made, so I implemented a toggle. 😁

Always surprised that SaaS services like G Cloud, A iCloud, or OpenAI don't make it easier to reduce the n of invoices through prepaid invoiced credits, or through annual billable contract. I don't want to go through intermediaries for that.

My 11yo son came home from the school library with Orwell's Animal Farm. I told him every kid his age in USA should read it now. He asked why but I didn't want to spoil it.
Later, he came back to me & said "I get it. The pig builds a dictatorship". Yeah, that’s what the pig is doing, I answered.

How about we talk about dashboarding & reporting in an analytics world where generative AI is everywhere?

That's what I tried to do in this article: observations, reflections, requirements, and directions for solutions in one of the analytics disciplines.

Today was back to work, full of energy, new ideas, and fresh motivation 💪, while also bringing a new record 🎶 to the office.

During my vacation, I was pleasantly surprised to discover that my favorite Ben Harper album had finally been reissued on vinyl: Diamonds on the Inside.
So good!

After all the previous bad episodes about Microsoft...
Now, we learn that the CEO & the leadership team of GitHub, acquired by MS in 2018, is leaving the ship. GitHub will now be directly controlled by Microsoft through the CoreAI division.
Obviously sad for Github.

The billionaire CEO of the third richest company on the planet gives the President an actual block of gold so his company is exempted from US Government tariffs. And the whole thing is broadcast live on TV.

Anyone who can't see what is happening to this country is unsalvageable at this point.
