The future is TBD: 6 shifts for 2026 and the next 6 years davidarmano.substack.com/p/six-shifts-f…

@mySA You can feel it on the roads. I’ve never encountered the aggressive drivers like I’ve experienced in SA and I’ve driven in dozens of cities and states. It’s like Mad Max here: drivers coming to take you out for mo reason. My defensive driving game has never been better

Is San Antonio one of the 'happiest cities' in US? New report begs to differ. Researchers evaluated rates of depression and average daily leisure time, among other metrics. Read more 🔗 bit.ly/4c6vqi6

New Rebrand from The Atlantic just dropped

@tomfgoodwin Fair point that there’s a lot of decline in media. And much of it is related to the industry being decimated. Then again, this is a real doozy. The NYT is paywalled… the stock is fine. It’s not a money issue here. It’s a quality of staff issue

@armano Pretty much all newspaper and magazines and tv news is like this now. No money in quality over emotion. It’s our fault as we didn’t pay for it

This goes beyond Typo. Beyond error. Beyond a misjudgment in editorial standards… Beyond publishing a correction This tells you that there is a systemic problem with the publication that let this get to print It’s Enshittification of the highest degree

I need new friends “Do you scrutinize other news sources the same way you are in this instance? So they got the acronym explanation wrong via typo. So what?” 🤦

@ryanels Am I doing this vibecode thing right? omnitopia.netlify.app

Is this what Vibe Coding is for? Asking for a friend omnitopia.netlify.app

It’s not 2010 anymore. There’s just so much more you can do in a mobile browser. It’s not the same as mobile native, but to be frank there haven’t been great reasons to use Web over app when app exists. But what happens when there’s more great Web apps that never make it native?

I think there’s a really good chance that vibe coding does a number on native mobile apps over time. At minimum, it’s going to get people more open to exploring app like experiences in their browsers. Two things: 1. An explosion of Web apps 2. Much improved browser experiences

@burdmanorama @TheKevinDalton Crisis rates!

@armano @TheKevinDalton 19M for 9 months of work - nice gig

Gavin Newsom is giving 19 million California taxpayer dollars to a New York PR firm to promote California in a better light to the nation. Which does not at all sound like Gavin Newsom is making a presidential campaign ad for himself. The best part is the $19 million is for only nine months of work…

@burdmanorama @TheKevinDalton It’s gotta be

@TheKevinDalton omg @armano

Workers want more remote work but not this way

A growing body of credible research is beginning to point in the same direction. AI is changing how we work, but it is also reshaping how we think. This is the Intelligence Wealth Gap davidarmano.substack.com/p/the-intellig…

@dev_maims Yeah kind of. But it’s still magic

Is this true ?

The Smashing Machine is so good! Duane Johnson as Mark Kerr. A legend from the 80s-90s in wrestling/MMA. And Emily Blunt. Really great stuff. Tragic but well done

Most companies aren’t building capability. They’re buying hope. This is the AI tax: Paying for potential… without earning outcomes The gap between adoption and impact? That’s the real story of 2026 TBDaily.ai

@caroljsroth This is both X-rated and All American at the same time

What would you call this tasty treat? (Via Pacific Counter)

@arikhanson I’ll tag you on my LI post tomorrow 🙂

@armano Never been a fan. Saw him speak 15+ years ago and he swore constantly. Totally turned me off and i thought it took away from his message (which was good). And I've always dislike the uber-hustle commentary like this he seems to thrive on.

I guess hustle culture is still hanging in their

@arikhanson He’s bigger than ever. He’s a mini Tony Robbins now

@armano People are still listening to what Gary Vee has to say?
