🔗 Why the SpaceX, xAI Merger, IPO, and Pivot to the Moon?
No idea if this is right - and clearly neither does he - BUT - interesting read.
🔗 Turning AppAdddict into a Fully Searchable Archive with Integrity, Raindrop, and EagleFiler
I might have to borrow use some most of this from @louplummer.lol …

🔗 Does Apple’s AI Opportunity Outweigh Component Cost Inflation?
Unlike many of its peers, Apple isn’t in the race to win AI benchmarks or translate those gains into tangible financial gains. It just needs those features to change behavior and pave the way for healthier services revenue.
🍎 is not playing ‘our’ game - except for ‘announcements’ that for whatever reason they have decided to join. They clearly do not know how to play it and are losing. Badly.

Clearly 🍎 has lost the plot.
This could be worse than ‘the wardrobe malfunction’

🔗📼🎵 The forgotten band that changed British rock music.
In all honesty - not a great video - but just happy to see The Strawbs being talked about.
Not a cover - totally original - and brilliant as Ren often is.

Loved Tears for Fears - Bluegrass not so much - BUT there is some superb Bluegrass work that leaks through to my appreciative ears.
Like this one.
📼🔗🎵 Sierra Hull - Mad World (Tears For Fears) | DelFest (2022) - YouTube
Cover 1
Loved Yes - never a big fan of Asia - despite Asia often being made up of people I love … like Wetton, Howe, Palmer and Downes for example and Fanfare is one of my favourite ELP tracks.
(BTW - nothing like ELPs and IMHO a massive improvement.)
🔗 Communities are not fungible
Economists have a word for assets that can be swapped one-for-one without loss of value: fungible. A dollar is fungible. A barrel of West Texas Intermediate crude is fungible.
Just like ‘content’.
Dont like that idea? Stop calling your work content.
Make IP Great Again
AI delivers greater value when it reduces friction, simplifies interaction, and improves workflow efficiency.

🔗 Loops, by Paul Ford (Ftrain)
I’m trying to set up a working feedback loop: Fingers to keys; keys to sound; sound to ears; ears to brain; brain to fingers. Getting to anything like flow is very hard unless I’m going slow, slow.
