Such a wonderful, expansive conversation with Long Now cofounder Brian Eno on the @ezraklein show today.
"Eno is more than just a sonic technician or tinkerer. He’s this wonderful thinker and philosopher of art."

@TommyHabetz @DouggieAdams Hi Tommy - Thank you so much! Do I have your permission to use this in my book, please? (from MIT Press, still a long way off.. but trying to do things properly) It's called "Term Limits: Time and scale in the age of AI."

@DouggieAdams The Lone Star Cafe, lol. I can’t remember if I ever saw a show there. I don’t think so.

interesting how company structures will change - fewer people inside, more people at the edges, facing customers, partners, suppliers..
yoni rechtman@yrechtman
Last week we hosted 12 senior product designers from AI labs, big tech companies, and startups to talk about how their work/roles are changing. We heard a lot about teams getting more senior, pitching demos not memos, and subject matter expertise vs rote production skill.

@paramendra @RonConway @peterthiel @naval @sacca Please note! I am not in need of additional deal-flow cold calls. (Or at least be funny, even if inadvertently. My favourite was from someone from the UK who said, "My aunt saw you on the telly and said I should write to you.")

@dylanwiliam @jasonaking2011 @DavidDidau @Kris_Boulton @rrunsworth @joboaler Not necessarily.. because then you might confuse luck with understanding what you got right ...which in fact would be a mistake. LOL
English
@jasonaking2011 @DavidDidau @Kris_Boulton @edyson @rrunsworth @joboaler I actually agree with David—it is better not to make mistakes. This is at the heart of Sweller's argument that borrowing and reorganising is better than randomness as genesis in learning. We can learn from mistakes, but I think generally it's better to get it right first time.
English
I’ve seen teacher teaching that argues you are literally leaning even you make mistakes, implying that you must make mistakes in order to learn.
