REMINDER, KIDZ!

CULT OF THE DEAD COW recommends that you turn off the GPS/Location function on your phone whenever you're not actually using it.

Bonus points for turning off Bluetooth and WiFi when you're not using them, too!

So much wrong with this movie (although I love it,) but they were spot on with “RISC architecture is going to change everything.”

my father-in-law is a “I know a guy” Guy. sadly all the old Guys are aging out of the Guy Economy. Guys are fundamentally incompatible with Hustle Culture because it’s not about “winning” a deal, it’s about collecting favors and goodwill in a mutually-beneficial cycle. protect your local Guy Economy

I recently became acquainted with "Osanaetoki Bankokubanashi" 童絵解万国噺, a Japanese illustrated history of America from 1861. The retelling of the revolutionary era is quite something. Here, for instance, is John Adams wielding a sword in mortal combat with a gigantic serpent.

Next week's newsletter (wheresyoured.at) includes a message to anybody in the tech media, or really anybody covering anything in business and tech in any way.
You don’t really have to be a specialist in anything to pry this shit apart, which is why so much of my work is either engaging to those who learn something from it or frustrating to those that intentionally deceive others through gobbledygook hype-schpiel. I will sit here and explain every fucking part of this horrid chain of freaks, and break it down into whatever pieces it takes to educate as many people as I have to to make things change. I also must be clear that I am nobody. I started writing this newsletter with 300 subscribers and no reason other than the fact I wanted to, and four years later I have nearly 64,000 subscribers and an award-winning podcast. I have no economics training, no special access, no deep sources, just the ability to look at things that are happening and say stuff. I taught myself everything I know about this industry, and there is nothing stopping you from doing the same. I was convinced I was stupid until around two years ago, though if I’m honest it might have been last year. I have felt othered the majority of my life, convinced by people that I am incapable or unwelcome, and as I’ve become more articulate and confident in who I am and what I believe in, I have noticed that the only people that seek to degrade or suppress are those of weak minds and weaker wills - Business Idiots in different forms and flavors. I have learned to accept who I am - that I am not like most people - and people conflate my passion and vigor with anger or hate, when what they’re experiencing is somebody different who deeply resents what the powerful have done to the computer. And while I complain about the state of media, what I’ve seen in the last year is that there are many, many people like me - both readers and peers - that resent things in the same way. I conflated being different with being alone, and I couldn’t be more wrong - for those of you that don’t wish to lick the boots of the people fucking up every tech product, the tent is large,…

I may be tired and a little hoarse, but as I said again and again on the Senate floor, this is a moment where we cannot afford to be silent, when we must speak up.

a spectacular crescent of golden-brown wrinkles is laying atop a soft, lime green blanket. each of the precious rolls from one end to the other no doubt came from an elaborate and precise lamination process and not just a casual plop. some might see what they believe is a shar pei puppy, but that can’t be it.
