The name I use for one of my test accounts is “Shouting Loudly.”
.. and he goes on to write that he can’t recall where it came from.
I regularly use ’Thinking Aloud’ and ’Thinking Allowed’.
.. me too.
👁️ There’s a ‘light tech’ writer out there that I used to follow but eventually stopped because the style and topics got so annoying. This morning a number of people seemed to be referencing one of his posts so I went to look. #JustAsAnnoying. It’s probably me. I know it’s me.
🔗 Elliot McGucken Suspends Einstein’s ‘Light Cones’ Over Desert Expanses — Colossal
McGucken delves specifically into the study of the fourth dimension, drawing on Einstein’s 1922 book The Meaning of Relativity, in which the renowned scientist illustrated a “light cone” that represented “the deep, physical relationship between space, time, and the velocity of light,” McGucken says. This almost hourglass-like shape, with two cones that meet at their tips, forms the basis of Spacetime Light Cone Sculptures dx4/dt=ic.
According to a nearby plaque, the city claims this is the narrowest street in the world (though this claim has been disputed). It is, though, the narrowest street in Britain.
Another US/UK ‘differality’.
If that street was in the US it would be dubbed something to do with
blah blah blah … ‘Capital Of The World’
And nobody would bat an eyelid - let alone question it.

Terry Godier is his name and he seems to be assuming the role of helping us all be purposeful as we seek to slow ourselves down in the the accelerating world of tech that we all live in. I am guilty of that speed. I LOVE slowing down. And it is entertaining at the same time as being informative. Thank you Terry.

"Dancing in the Street (2002 Remaster)" by David Bowie & Mick Jagger
**So great. Such fun.**
I mean sure - you could pop over to your music player and have a listen - but there's also the video for twice the fun.
‘ThisIsIndexed’ nails it.
I always knew that ‘soccer’ actually had English origins BUT had never heard the story of where it came from until today. (In the link - about half way down).
I have definitely posted this link to Jason Fried’s post in the past and it keeps coming to mind as I read so much about our new ‘Trillionaire’ who went public on a vision with the smallest public float in the history of IPO’s.

But you should see the spreadsheet models we’re making up. Really breakthrough stuff,” said Mirage.

My Take?
1 - been saying that for years.
2 - we know this - BUT seeing it written in out in 2 short sentences made me sit up.
3 - see ‘2’.
4 - depending on your domain - that has been happening for over a decade. look at marketing if you want a use case.
5 - yes.
6 - which will be a major change in how humans operate in large corporations - so not holding my breath
💬 Last one for now. An Osman highlight.

"Vivaldi" by Curved Air
Another one of those cross genre mind blowing tracks that just had me hooked - and never let me go. I wonder if two cellos would ever have happened without Darryl.
🪦 Thank you Clive … safe travels … ‘keep making stars ‘.

"Phaedra (Steven Wilson 2018 Stereo Remix)" by Tangerine Dream
But these were the guys that had my heart back in the day. Noting that I try to post links as close to the original as I can - this is the exception that proves the rule - a 2028 Remix by Steven Wilson.
Bonus points for the name of the river.
