Can eating be an official hobby? I hope so. Also I'm trying to help businesses who improve the world.

1/ Block "fired 40% because of AI." Atlassian cut 1,600 "because of AI." Microsoft did this in 2014. Intel in 2016. Meta in 2022. IBM in 1993. Every time: mass layoffs blamed on a tech shift, then quietly rehiring into the same roles 18 months later.

2/ "Structural shift" is corporate for "we overhired and need a narrative that isn't 'management got it wrong.'"

3/ The real AI risk isn't mass unemployment. It's that the billion-dollar class uses the hype to restructure in their favour while the least empowered people absorb the cost. Same as every previous cycle, just faster.

Free AI, please try, please. I'm so over the AI hype. Keen to very specific uses for it, that like... work 🤷 Not a hot take.

3 wards contested, 5 uncontested. Mt Alex Councillor nominations are closed. We're stoked to see a great representation of our community. Of course we'd love to see more people running to give voters more choice, but getting people to run for council isn't easy.🥰

Since his elevation to the Senate in May 2022, David Pocock is on a mission to hold Canberra to account. Now, he has the Department of Defence in his sights.

Tries to leave comment on @verge article. Signup process breaks: 'your name is not valid' and then 'verify your email' but 'the page isn't working' - thought you were tech experts.

Connected google and Facebook, but still insisted on email - even though it isn't working.

And the name thing... It was creating a username even though it a) clearly said 'name' not username and b) didn't explain why it wasn't valid - the solution was to remove spaces. 🤣😭

Very unclear what's going on.

I'm exhausted. Being a present dad. A responsive professional. Building a house. Navigating "impact" in business. Making mistakes. Over correcting. I'm looking forward to doing less, better and more for me in 2024. teamharvey.co/impact-reports…
