Martyn Jones - goodstrat.com

THIS IS FROM CHATGPT (IT'S NOY MY OWN TEXT): Martyn Richard Jones sits in a very niche but influential space: strategic data and information architecture — the intersection of enterprise architecture, data strategy, leadership coaching, and AI/analytics integration. To compare him meaningfully, we can group him with other high-level thinkers and practitioners in data strategy, enterprise data architecture, and information management rather than day-to-day data science. 🔑 Comparable Experts & Thought Leaders 1. Data Architecture & Methodology Dan Linstedt - Creator of Data Vault 2.0, focused on robust enterprise data warehousing methodology. Zhamak Dehghani – Originator of Data Mesh, a paradigm-shifting framework for scaling analytics across enterprises. Bill Inmon – Often called the “Father of Data Warehousing,” foundational in enterprise data architecture. 📌 Like Martyn, these figures work at the enterprise strategy + architecture level, shaping how organizations structure and govern data. 2. Data Strategy & Leadership Cindi Howson – BI and analytics strategy expert (ex-Gartner, now at ThoughtSpot), focused on organizational adoption. Thomas H. Davenport – Academic and consultant, known for Analytics at Work and frameworks on analytics maturity. Bernard Marr – Business strategist and author (Data Strategy), advising executives on aligning data with business goals. 📌 Jones aligns here because he combines strategy, coaching, and delivery of blueprints/frameworks to executives. 3. AI, Advanced Analytics & Integration Hilary Mason – Data scientist and strategist (Fast Forward Labs, Cloudera) with focus on applied AI. Cassie Kozyrkov – Former Chief Decision Scientist at Google; pioneered Decision Intelligence. Sergey Gordeev (less widely known but similar niche) – Works on enterprise-scale AI integration into IT ecosystems. 📌 Like Martyn, these experts bridge AI/ML with enterprise IT strategy rather than focusing only on research. 🎯 Where Martyn Differs Unlike a pure academic (e.g., Davenport) or a pure methodologist (e.g., Linstedt), Jones is also a coach and organisational strategist, helping teams adopt frameworks in practice. Compared to influencer-authors (like Bernard Marr), Martyn’s work is more hands-on in enterprise delivery, especially with data hubs, migration, and integration projects. He shares DNA with Inmon + Dehghani + Davenport, but adds a strong element of mentoring leaders and aligning data culture. ✅ In summary: Martyn Richard Jones compares most directly with Dan Linstedt, Bill Inmon, and Zhamak Dehghani in architecture methodology, while also overlapping with Thomas Davenport and Bernard Marr in strategy and executive coaching. He’s part architect, part strategist, part coach — a hybrid profile that few others occupy at the same depth.

Nobody is talking about this!!!! Father Pierre was trying to help displaced people and families, last month, and was killed by Israel. He stayed to serve his congregation, and other Lebanese displaced and impacted by the invasion. He lost his life because of it.

Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said Saturday that Jews are committing killings, "ethnic cleansing," and "crimes against humanity" in the West Bank v.aa.com.tr/3892115

'Russia is helping Iran kill Americans'— Kallas Apparently absent-minded since at least when the Donbass conflict began, with Biden's $350 BILLION investment.

Hey @EylonALevy did you ever apologize for pushing disgusting lies like this about October 7th? Do you realize why everyone thinks you’re a liar?

REIGN?

I just can’t believe any of this is real. This man is literally beyond parody.

Trump is more gratingly effeminate than Lindsey Graham when he speaks.

The filthy vermin.

The Shah’s Torture State: Mossad’s Bloody Fingerprints Mohammad Reza Pahlavi wasn’t a benevolent moderniser; he was a U.S.- and Israeli-backed despot who ran Iran like a private abattoir. SAVAK, his secret police, turned Tehran’s basements into industrial-scale torture factories. Prisoners were electrocuted on their genitals, had toenails ripped out, were hung upside-down and whipped until they begged for death, or simply disappeared into mass graves. Dissent, leftist, nationalist, or Islamist, was crushed with medieval cruelty wrapped in 20th-century efficiency. Tens of thousands suffered; the regime’s own records and survivor testimonies make it impossible to deny. The savagery wasn’t homegrown genius. Mossad helped build it. Israeli intelligence officers trained SAVAK cadres in interrogation techniques, surveillance, and targeted killings from the late 1950s onward. They shared tradecraft, supplied equipment, and embedded advisors to make sure the Shah’s goons could efficiently terrorise their own population. It was straight-up realpolitik: Israel wanted a friendly oil supplier and an anti-Arab bulwark; the Shah wanted the best torturers money and geopolitics could buy. The result was a hybrid terror apparatus that combined Persian absolutism with Mossad’s professional sadism. Call it what it was: outsourced repression. The Shah’s “Great Civilisation” smelled of burning flesh and Israeli aftershave. When the 1979 revolution finally kicked him out, the people weren’t swapping angels for devils; they were swapping one gang of torturers for another. But the Mossad chapter of that nightmare remains one of the dirtiest open secrets in Middle Eastern history.

@BasedMikeLee You both have been clowned.

President Milei should be cloned

@EthanLevins2 Bro, its not like they're saying men can't leave the country or anything, it's just a formal approval process, relax.

@EthanLevins2 As a journalist, you should check the facts before posting. The fact is: in Germany, male persons are required to obtain prior approval if they plan to leave the country for more than three months. This is tied to German military service law and has nothing to do with the EU.

There's a new bureaucratic hurdle for German men of military age wanting long-term stays abroad, aimed at maintaining an accurate registry for potential future emergencies. But calling it "NOT ALLOWED to leave" without permission is hyperbolic bullshit, it implies an outright exit ban, which isn't the case (at least not yet or in normal times). Similar rules exist or have existed in other countries with conscription systems for tracking reservists.The tweet is classic social media outrage bait: technically grounded in a real policy shift, but stripped of nuance to sound like dystopian tyranny. It's worth watching how strictly Germany enforces this in practice, especially if tensions rise in Europe. KNT!

German men are NOT ALLOWED to leave the country without the military’s permission in new law. The EU’s tyranny grows… telegraph.co.uk/world-news/202…

@SaltyGoat17 "And who protects who?" NATO is the USA, the rest of NATO who are reluctant prostitutes who are also expected to pay for the hotel room, time and time again. It's all about protecting the USA, and Israel. Arrogance and ignorance makes people blind to the facts.

Total NATO defense spending (2025): United States: $980,000,000,000 Europe + Canada: $512,337,000,000 We pay almost twice as much as ALL the other countries COMBINED!! And who protects who? Anyone else tired of being the world's ATM?

Another one? Are our allies helping?

BREAKING: 🇫🇷🇮🇱 A large mobilization is underway in France to block the adoption of a new law that will criminalize criticisms of Israel A large mobilization is underway in France to block the adoption of the 'Yadan Law' (Bill n°575), scheduled for debate and a vote in the French National Assembly in two weeks. Authored by MP Caroline Yadan, the bill aims to combat "renewed forms of antisemitism". Legal experts, medias and human rights organizations claim it would criminalize most political criticisms of the State of Israel and create France's largest censorship law. By integrating the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's working definition of antisemitism into French law, the bill could classify comparisons between Israeli policy and the Third Reich as criminal hate speech. A new provision targeting "calls for the destruction of a state" could lead to slogans like "Free Palestine" being prosecuted as an advocacy for terrorism. An online petition already gathered 150.000 signatures against the bill.

If Israel is supposed to be the world "Jewish State", why are they making enclaves in Cyprus, Greece, Argentina, Ukraine, to name but a few? They also employ private security. But let's keep kidding ourselves that Muslims are taking over...

@mitrajoy_ People conveniently forget the Shah was a tyrant—that's exactly why he was exiled in 1979. Now, after 45+ years of the Islamic Republic's far worse oppression, some Iranians are lusting for him like he's a savior. Nostalgia is a hell of a drug. #Iran

I think Iranians who don’t support the Shah need to be louder. The monarchists are speaking over us and dominating the attention.. meanwhile they are treacherous to their own people.
