Maybe Tomorrow?
This just in from Mark Manson, It is 23:06.
ONE THING FOR YOU TO THINK ABOUT - my response in bold
The real “morning routine” nobody tells you about:
-
Eat a reasonable dinner, no caffeine or alcohol. BUGGER
-
Stop looking at screens around 9PM. BUGGER
-
Get into bed by 10PM. BUGGER
-
Relax, meditate, do some light reading. TOO TIRED
-
Wake up early feeling f*cking great and ready to go. I’LL LET YOU KNOW TOMORROW
🪦 Late to the news - just wanted to say goodbye to Herbie.
TIL you wrote ‘Grandad’ .. but otherwise what a superb life journey.

The site is really really good - everything I need. I just want you to say exactly the same thing with completely different words.

For the longest time I have argued against the thoughtless deployment of ATS systems in corporations.
Downside for corporates - totally miss the nuance of people and their ‘particular sets of skills’ because they are over simplifying what they think they are looking for.
Downside for people - your resume and cover letter are no longer enough - you know need to think about tuning yourself with keywords to ensure you are fully ‘Search Engine Optimised’.
The whole thing is just one giant mess that benefits nobody.
Me previously …
Where has all the crypto gone?
Gone to exploits, every one.

🔗 Wearisome and Dissipating - by Stowe Boyd - Work Futures
It’s interesting to me that leaders of companies who have disrupted entire industries by “breaking the box” and solving problems in new ways are so committed to “doing work” the same way it’s been done for the last 50 years.

🪦 Sorry to read the news Maggie. Thankyou.
Funny to think that this view has been pretty much identical for around 600 years - and yet, had you been here 650 years ago and then then came back, you’d hardly recognize the place.

The Facebook Glasses are so good that they are taking Apple head on - for less money.
Later on we learn that these glasses are
- unlikely to see the light of day,
- possibly in 3 to 10 (TEN - not a typo) years before a version is likely to be released,
- estimated cost per pair is $10,000 - to MANUFACTURE.
Thats three times the price that apple are selling at - and of course we all know that Apple will never release a version two of their product - I mean they are done. Aren’t they?
