In 1999, The Cluetrain Manifesto said “markets are conversations.”
In 2025, those conversations are bots, filters, and noise.
What happened to the promise of the internet?

The Cluetrain Manifesto at 25 | Simon Web
The Cluetrain Manifesto shook marketing in 1999. Twenty-five years on, its lessons and blind spots still matter.

An all-time classic in the history of advertising
Revel in this 1977 advert for Benest's of Millbrook, presented by 'Major' Benest himself - imagine Bernard Matthews as a Winston Churchill stan and you're halfway there. Shown in ITV's Channel Islands region, Benest's became a local legend. And it's the best thing you'll see all day.

My translator tells me "thoughts & prayers" is an American political expression that means "we'd rather have a secret police force than a weather service".

I spoke to a talented junior scientist who just got a good faculty job offer in the US and they told me “well I wouldn’t move to 1930s Germany either” so that’s how that’s going

"The particular problem of false scientific references is rife. In one 2024 study, various chatbots made mistakes between about 30% and 90% of the time on references, getting at least two of the paper’s title, first author or year of publication wrong."

Good advice from Mike here to protect your phone. I'd also add if you can live without your banking app on your phone, take it off, and consider adding a lock to your email accounts (or moving your email to a secure area on your phone requiring unlock to access it, as you can on Android now.)
Ridiculous this article does not recommend applying a SIM PIN as a crucial phone protection — phone theieves swap SIMs to a new phone and use them to access poorly 2FA-by-text protected accounts. Turn off notification content if your phone is locked, and set a SIM PIN. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
