🔗 WWW
There are a lot of links out to different parts of the web on this site. I try to mark them all so they get listed here.
Only one third in - and we will get to the Silverlake/WPEngine fracas .. but for now a 🎙️🔗link to Lenny’s podcast and a wise thought.
Side note - no expert on how this is all going to shake out in the courts - but from what I read - I remain on Matt’s side.
🔗 Our Muslim Boy Wonder - Michael Moore
(It’s about ’Steve’, but it this caught my attention …
How many millions upon millions over the years have snuck into this nation without permission, without invitation, just wham-bam-thank-you-Uncle-Sam-you’re-an-American-man now – ** in this case because of the perhaps questionable morals of a Wisconsin farmer’s daughter**.
💬 Michael Moore
… my bold, because I have questions …
- Why is it only the daughter’s questionable morals?
- What about the morals of Abdulfattah Jandali?
- Why is it even about ‘morals’ - though I guess it was 1950.
John on John on Jonny
That’s Philpin, Gruber and Jonny. This really resonated - and if you read some of the stuff I read - it will ring bells, because it is like life.
Gruber and Malik commenting on Skype and Microsoft
Om nailed it in that second quote: “Especially for immigrants, calling home used to cost a fortune. Skype made it free.” (I was one of those immigrants.)

🔗 📼 A Minecraft Movie | Official Trailer
No plans to see it - but was reminded that around 15 months ago we were looking for a place to live in Auckland and everywhere we tried was gone before we got there - apparently three movies were in town filming (end of 2023) - but the biggest ‘secret’ was a ‘Moma film about a video game’. And here we are 18 months later …

🔗 Anti-Elon Musk Poster “Don’t Buy a Swasticar” in London Goes Viral. (Hollywood Reporter on Apple News)
The photo is taken from the moment Musk, also the founder of SpaceX, made
what looked likea Nazi salute at Trump’s January inauguration rally, drawing criticisms from all over the globe. The poster dubs Tesla “The Swasticar.”
My edit because it’s important to get the facts right.
Peter Thiel - Another Loser
Peter Thiel - remember him? The guy with the bunker in the South Island of New Zealand. Yeah, he’s outta here - and good riddance. Except there are lessons that the Kiwi Govt should learn from as they prepare to attract more billionaires, still believing that trickle down economics works.
Love The Waterboys and today discovered these two tracks via The Rockenteurs in a conversation with Mike Scott.
🔗🎵 Hopper’s On Top (Genius) by The Waterboys
🔗🎵 Andy (A Guy Like You) by The Waterboys
If these two are any example of the other 23 tracks - it is going to ROCK.
I keep coming back to this visual .. because the other one makes me feel sick.
