Coffee With Scott Adams. Just sipping. 1/9/26 x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

@mikker I have a "TODAYY" note that is random snippets, links and ideas. Todo list at the top. Every month I copy whatever has accumulated into a "month year" note and start fresh on TODAYY.
Use Obsidian as it's just md-files. Both desktop and mobile app open on TODAYY on launch.
English
Notes, are you writing them?
Nursing them? Structuring them? Just one big glorious pile or a system, like Zettelkasten, PARA, Second Brain, etc?
English
@mikker @thomasweidekamp Maybe assume biggest willing effort from creators, so it would be okay to make them have to click the "non-easy" link? 🤠

I always believed I could only have "1 big CTA" and so I went for getting more projects on board as the projects themselves have their own landingpages ie their profile/signup-pages.
Never considered having a two-up setup like your example. It's not a bad idea but I don't think I'm convinced either
English
Sometimes people go to 10er to support a project but instead of doing that they click on “Create project” and put in either their own name or the name of the project they wanted to support — which is like something I don’t feel I can help avoid?
I don’t know how to tell them they’re going the wrong way as they're already ignoring all the existing signs that they are going the wrong way.

@jayclouse Great effort! And seems that for every 4 pounds you lose, you gain a remote 😛

been a while since my mirror selfie phase, but proud of being down 30 lbs from my peak 🙏

@mikker Threads? Its's gonna blow up any minute now. Aaaany minute 🤡

@Cancelcloco @wheremehousekey Going forward, I'm moving the letters around: NOPE AI
English
So Open AI, who’s being sued by musk for being closed AI and for profit
Just named three new board members
One is a board member of Pfizer and former ceo of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
Another was a senior executive and corporate lawyer at Sony (think who killed Michael Jackson) oh and she also represented both Clintons and Oliver North of the Iran Contra scandal.
Oh yeah, and Sam Altman is also back on the board.
And still no word on why Larry Summers has a board seat, one of the most vile and corrupt stooges of big banking in the past 100 years.
Yeah, I’m sure OpenAI has only the best intentions though…
Sam Altman@sama
i'm very happy to welcome our new board members: fidji simo, sue desmond-hellmann, and nicole seligman, and to continue to work with bret, larry, and adam. i'm thankful to everyone on our team for being resilient (a great openai skill!) and staying focused during a challenging time. in particular, i want to thank mira for our strong partnership and her leadership during the drama, since, and in all the quiet moments where it really counts. and greg, who plays a special leadership role without which openai would simply not exist. being in the trenches always sucks, but its much better being there with the two of them. i learned a lot from this experience. one think i'll say now: when i believed a former board member was harming openai through some of their actions, i should have handled that situation with more grace and care. i apologize for this, and i wish i had done it differently. i assume a genuine belief in the crucial importance of getting agi right from everyone involved. we have important work in front of us, and we can't wait to show you what's next.

@farnamstreet @shaneparrish It's such an amazing "origin story". And a great example of the power of the OG internet.
English
@shaneparrish Ordered and 1/3 through 🔥
The four defaults are amazing lenses for self awareness, and I'm writing so many notes on how to apply action in my thinking.
Your success is very well deserved 🙌
English
@shaneparrish Agree.
I would also argue listening to a book twice on 2x, is even better than one time on 1x. Not sure it scales further than that though 😅
English
Reading a great book twice is more valuable than reading two average books.
English
@saurabhcio So true. Feature bloat is real. I like to ride a clean bike that is easy to maintain. I never consider adding horns, stripes or other bells and whistles, as that would make it worse (to me). It has a simple job to do, and it does it well. Same with zcal 🙌
English
@marclou Amazing job. So happy for you - well deserved momentum 🤸♂️
English
@marclou I'd say it's totally on point given the subject 😜 #fuckitshipit

Chicken or the egg? Does wealth and power create evilness in people? Or are evil people drawn to wealth and power?

@dvassallo Super finish and nice, simple design. Boiled linseed oil or raw?

Today I’ll be turning this dead tree into something useful.

From 1972, after reading Carl Sagan's 'Cosmic Connection', until May 2023, I was an anthropogenic global warming advocate.
I feel betrayed by this movement and no longer recognize its authority as 'science'. I don't like bullies or liars.
Greta this means you.
