@markaaltman.bsky.social Hi Mark, I'm curious if there are any plans for the ebook of "Nobody Does it Better" to resurface? (I have the free sample on my Kindle so I know it existed at some point, but the full title appears to be unavailable on Amazon and elsewhere.)

I Dug Up The Earthly Body Of Christ And Ground His Bones To Meal For Potting Soil. I Know It Was Him Because My Recently Repotted Monstera Deliciosa Screams In What I Assume Is Aramaic Now. Asked The Girl At The Plant Store What To Do And She Said “Not Sure, Plants Don’t Usually Scream.” Yeah I Know

very funny that for a few days you could scroll through instagram reels your friends had liked, and then they realized you should not be able to do that

People mistook money as a natural resource like coal or water. Something the government can run out of. But it’s an IOU on society, a favor you can call in. And the greater that society is, the more a favor from it is worth. A country with bridges, science labs, free school lunches, has richer money

$1: not bad $5: I'm listening... $20: you've officially got my attention $100: now we're talkin

The stupidest thing about firing squad as an execution method is the blanks. This is to give the executioner the sense that they had one of the blanks thus relieving them of the idea that they took a human life on cold blood. So close to getting it, guys!

my severance theory is that theyre gonna do whats right and create shareholder value by buckling down and finishing their group project

Everything about the young guys at DOGE is reminding me of the time that I, as a middle school/high schooler, was tasked with cleaning up the family computer, deleted a bunch of nonsense looking files, and then the family computer stopped working.

The curse of being Rowan Atkinson it that even when you heroically save a plane with your family from crashing, the news is still going to call you Mr. Bean

A company is like a kingdom, and as CEO I am a sort of a king. Managers: my liege lords. Sales team, you are my soldiers. Devs are court wizards. And Customer Support is kind of like, you know, the lowborn… not peasant exactly, but like: help me out here. The wormy sort of, dirty, plaguey villagers

in screenwriting the opening image is so important. anyway, happy new year
