@jarett_busacca You can't make a horse drink. You just have to keep being top of mind so that when they see the problem you solve frustrates them enough, they'll take action.

How do you sell someone something that they need but they don’t realize they even want or need it?
English
@sporadica It's such a weird support for his weird take, too. What does the dude think introspection is? Like, long walks (in the woods, no less) and not speaking much is the prime template for introspection.
English
@joecarlsonshow Two notes on this, imo. 1) even if this is an allowed option, I think we'll see corpos continue quarterly because no one will trust the semiannual reporters. 2) it's the idea that corpos have to beat some earnings estimate arbitrarily determined that forces short term thinking.
English
This is honestly just a terrible development. Part of the unique value of the public markets is liquidity. Making it so companies are required to update their investors less frequent means we are moving towards opaque, confusion, and lack of data.
And there’s nothing “long term” about getting less frequent updates. One of the most long term focused companies ever is Costco, which releases KPIs *monthly*.
Removing the quarterly reporting period will just give investors less data to work with and make it so insiders can sell out of a stock long before the public is aware of the problems.

BREAKING: The Securities and Exchange Commission is preparing a proposal to eliminate the quarterly earnings report requirement and instead give companies the option to share results twice a year, per WSJ

@grapesmoker 100%. I agree. Clearly lacks the introspection to see that, though haha
English
@UnderdogCap25 right but his original description is also complete nonsense
English
hard to imagine what the point of lying about something so thoroughly documented could be other than a pure show of dominance, like getting your ministers to agree that the moon is made of cheese just because you can
English
Having skilled folks doesn't necessarily guarantee success. It's how you mobilize those labor resources that matters just as much.

"Apple was about 90 days away for being bankrupt back then. It was much worse than I thought when I went back initially. But there were people there - I expected all the good people would have left - and I found these miraculous people here." —Steve Jobs, D8 conference, 2010

@StewartWood You mean the dude actively creating a one-world totalitarian state thinks everything that doesn't fit his worldview is the creation of a one-world totalitarian state? Color me shocked /s

The future looks bright in the hands of the tech oligarchs.

@SoniaBaschez That pretty much applies to everything I've seen AI be used for. It's still just a tool, imo, and it still needs someone experienced to wield it. You can't outsource the complex thinking to it. You can use it for brainstorming or sharpening things, but it's no replacement.
English
The thing about all those AI CMOs is that they only do about 1-3 marketing tasks each so you’d have to buy multiple AI CMOs to make up for one really good marketing hire.

We need to end prediction markets for government action. NOW.

@piercepenniless I wonder who's listening to these podcasts and just blindly accepting stuff like that as truth. What kind of bubble do you have to be in to think uncritically like that?
English
Among the amazingly, amazingly stupid claims made here is the idea that nobody in the early 17th century was introspective, an idea so stupid it barely qualifies as an idea.
David Senra@davidsenra
Great men of history had little to no introspection. The personality that builds empires is not the same personality that sits around quietly questioning itself. @pmarca and I discuss what we both noticed but no one talks about: David: You don't have any levels of introspection? Marc: Yes, zero. As little as possible. David: Why? Marc: Move forward. Go! I found people who dwell in the past get stuck in the past. It's a real problem and it's a problem at work and it's a problem at home. David: So I've read 400 biographies of history’s greatest entrepreneurs and someone asked me what the most surprising thing I’ve learned from this was [and I answered] they have little or zero introspection. Sam Walton didn't wake up thinking about his internal self. He just woke up and was like: I like building Walmart. I'm going to keep building Walmart. I'm going to make more Walmarts. And he just kept doing it over and over again. Marc: If you go back 400 years ago it never would've occurred to anybody to be introspective. All of the modern conceptions around introspection and therapy, and all the things that kind of result from that are, a kind of a manufacture of the 1910s, 1920s. Great men of history didn't sit around doing this stuff. The individual runs and does all these things and builds things and builds empires and builds companies and builds technology. And then this kind of this kind of guilt based whammy kind of showed up from Europe. A lot of it from Vienna in 1910, 1920s, Freud and all that entire movement. And kind of turned all that inward and basically said, okay, now we need to basically second guess the individual. We need to criticize the individual. The individual needs to self criticize. The individual needs to feel guilt, needs to look backwards, needs to dwell in the past. It never resonated with me.
English
@Saganismm Better to have a question then not. The pursuit of understanding is the desire to overcome ignorance.
English
@TheLincoln I think part of the issue is that folks inherently think quantity = quality, especially in corpo environments. There's a tendency, at least in my exp., to paper people to death because it makes you look busy & executives reward it. Unfortunately, that's not creating real value.
English
A lot of AI bros got mad at me for predicting AI would lead to more time wasting bullshit, but I think it was inevitable. LLM's great strength is producing quantity not quality. It encourages spewing a firehose of slop, filler, spam, etc.

It's OK to fail. That's how you learn. So long as you keep playing the game, every failure tells you a bit more about what a win would look like. That's why playing the infinite game is so rewarding. Keep making decisions. Keep making plays. It'll work...eventually.

"You've got to be willing to fail, you've got to be willing to crash and burn - you know, with people on the phone, with starting a company, whatever. If you're afraid of failing, you won't get very far." — Steve Jobs, 1994

@MorningBrew Can't really fault him, if it actually creates value for the end client (savings, worry, etc.)

This cancellation dark pattern is slowly killing Adobe
It turns promoters (customers who love the product and pay for it) into vocal haters
I am an example as well who got tricked into the sub you cannot cancel without a penalty. I will NEVER buy or recommend Adobe again

great, i have to pay to cancel my adobe subscription most pathetic way to get me to keep my subscription lol

@Saganismm This is kind of what I'm thinking of in this regard ⤵️

@HedgieMarkets Such a strange obsession with recording every aspect of our lives. Both the people who buy these and the people who sell this tech. Like, is your life significantly improved with this? It's like we're scraping the bottom of the barrel for random ideas that might make life better.
English
@Saganismm I don't think so. I think we frequently lack direction in the usage of that information. By that I mean, tons of research has been done, but we're not using that research to reach for the stars. The desire for disruptive innovation isn't as great as incremental innovation, imo.
English
@GC_undercover @ryanmckeen In theory, sure, but we've already seen plenty of stories of lawyers not verifying outputs. At least a junior lawyer is almost certainly not going to make up something. They might not find the best precedent, but what they do find is probably real (in the book/database).
English
There are two different things here.
A lawyer using AI as a tool in their practice still supervises the output (hopefully, at least) and is responsible for the work product.
That’s no different than supervising a junior lawyer.
Consumers seeking legal advice from AI is a separate issue.
English
Like 98% of the AI discussion in legal focuses on hallucinations.
While the other 2% are busy rewiring the entire profession for $200 a month and Claude Code.
It’s a wild time.
English
@_johnsonator That's not their thesis anymore, tho, imo. They're cashing and coasting on their brand, not quality
English
@GC_undercover @ryanmckeen AI also isn't insured for malpractice, is it? Who watches the AI?
English
@ryanmckeen AI hallucinates.
Junior lawyers make mistakes.
Both require supervision.
The difference is the AI doesn’t bill for the hallucination.
