I’m really into gaming, literally

Klarna alarm… bells are ringing, And the Debt… keep on clinging. A swipe and a smile, Four payments in style! Walkin’ in a Buy-Now-Pay-Later land.
Breakdown of the Black Friday data tells us: -Consumer is weakening. -95% of sales volume was financed. -67% of that intends not to pay off within 30 days. -Roughly $1B was spent using BNPL models which are the worst debt. This points to a *really* unhealthy economy.

The amount of dog poop on NYC sidewalks I have to hopscotch around daily reminds me that there’s a good reason not everybody should become parents

Lest you think the hunger of AI would be sated by the livelihoods of artists alone, don’t worry AI is coming for the Execs too 🤯
Today I just finished a project that took me 7 months to produce for a client. This company now has an “AI Shadow” for each department head and C level executive. The local encrypted AI listens in to all that the employee says and said to them and accesses all reports. Today the CEO called each “AI Shadow” on the phone and got a report. And said it was the best insight he has in 40 years of business. Next week each “AI Shadow” will be able to contact each other and their respective executives and brainstorm or answer questions. This is the first known deployment of this type of technology and it was built in my garage. It is early days but will write more about it as I can.

You work for years, you give everything, day and night. Alongside incredibly talented people. And then one day, after one email, you are empty. And wondering what you did wrong. It's okay to not be okay, it's okay to feel hurt and betrayed. It's okay to reach out.
