The most successful people I've met: 1. Read constantly 2. Cool by day, then at night work up a sweat 3. Know how to become number one in a hot party show 4. Push it 5. Push it real good 6. Pump hard 7. Make it fast 8. Know this dance ain’t for everybody 9. Only the sexy people

I talked about it all at the "Austin's AI Gamble" panel this morning with @gttuttle (former CEO of @SiliconLabs, now building @circuit_ai) and @memeofaustin (founded @WeMeasureUS). And OG Austin reporter @omarg at @KUT Fest.

My recap of last night’s quite good #SNL

Enjoyed chatting with City Cast Austin's podcast about why data centers are becoming an increasingly big problem (or is it a problem-opportunity?) for Texas austin.citycast.fm/podcasts/what-…

My recap of last night’s #SNL. Colman Domingo, no surprise, was an ideal host.

@thesamuelnam Just cut the top and bottom of your tablet.

The black bars are bigger than the actual content... This kinda sucks, no?

My recap of last night’s #SNL with Jack Black and Jack White

@TychoBrahe I was looking up dapper in the dictionary and it sent me here

@NACHOS2D_ @central838 The pacing sucks and the scenes all feel off. Good movies aren’t just decent visuals.

@central838 Only you think this is garbage.

Hollywood got cooked. AI Seedance 2.0 just dropped a Hancock vs Homelander in a matter of days $1,000,000-level quality.

@WyattzWorId BTS merch and light sticks

Did something come out today? Why the fuck are people wrapped around Best Buy at 10 am

My #SXSW follow up with some movies and TV you’ll want to watch in the coming months.

@JonathanSnoddy @people 😁

@people I can fix her.

@EndahBagja @meghanncuniff A fucking hilarious context

@meghanncuniff If a plaintiff claims a nickname is defamatory, the court has to examine how and why it was used. Playing the Lemon Pound Cake video to establish context is standard legal procedure, not a stunt.

A retired deputy suing Afroman for defamation testified he doesn’t know why the rapper nicknamed him “Officer Pound Cake,” so Afroman’s lawyer played the “Lemon Pound Cake” video. “You would admit that’s you with the glasses walking by the lemon pound cake on the counter?”

This is by no means comprehensive -- even after spending five full days at #SXSW I still barely touched on all the happenings, but here's my initial take on what South by Southwest was like this year. Will have more highlights later at @BookPlusFilm. bookandfilmglobe.com/film/sxsws-rea…

and apparently the show will guest star Barack Obama

Larry David's new show for HBO is called "Life, Larry and the Pursuit of Unhappiness: An Almost History of America" #sxsw BREAKING NEWS! June 26, 7 episodes

Announced at a panel at #SXSW -- "It's good! It's pretty good!" David says

One thing perhaps affected at #SXSW this year by big leadership changes is communications breakdowns (Convention Center loss isn’t helping). Different volunteers or coordinators for panels are giving conflicting info to attendees, making it harder to navigate and attend stuff.

Seated for Steven Spielberg podcast recording simulcast. It started with a tease to a sizzle reel, but the reel didn't get shown on the simulcast. Many derisive remarks from the simulcast audience, but now dead silence as he speaks to Sean Fennessey. #SXSW

At #SXSW @YoBenCohen shows how to outdo DOGE
