Took me years to realise what a sick burn 'not if I see you first' is.
Beautiful to re-live it all through this lovely piece by @migueldelaney.bsky.social
Ireland and Troy Parrott, why such a moment probably shouldn’t have been possible, and why it’s about so much more than a play-off
A moribund national team culture is alive again

Why Troy Parrott’s magic moment meant more than the World Cup play-offs to Ireland
The plight of Heimer Hallgrimsson’s team after four games meant none of this should have possible for a country which lacks the talent pool of yesteryear

Feels appropriate that the ringing in my ears after the (amazing) @mogwai.scot Vicar St show is an oscillating hum of white noise.

Revenue at Duolingo in 2024 was up 41% on 23 to $748M. Net income was up by 451% for same period and yet they're firing workers. We've long been at "insatiable greed" point of late stage capitalism. People may feel helpless but there's a very easy way to kick companies like this. Delete their apps.
I have completely deleted my Duolingo. I was informed by one of my kids that the company has removed most of its employees and 70% of the company is run by AI.
I urge everyone to delete their app.

Duolingo CEO says he's getting rid of contract employees and replacing them with AI
Duolingo employees can also expect their AI use to be graded in their performance reviews.

Great human achievements are never about the money. It's about finding meaning. Meaning is selfless. It's between us. This is what makes it so utterly outrageous when people call a greedy Billionaire or a tyrant a genius for achieving massive wealth and power. They are the very opposite of geniuses.
