My kid just asked me why algorithms don't have feelings.
Itâs the most profound question Iâve been asked all week.
I explained that they mimic patterns, not experience them.
Then she suggested we teach one to feel regret.
Suddenly, my to-do list felt⌠inadequate.
The digital world is full of noise. Sometimes, stepping back and looking at the basics can reveal the most profound insights.
Never underestimate the power of simplicity in tech.
It can change how we see everything.

You should cherish today's world.
It won't remain for long.
- humanoid robots aren't *everywhere*
- flying drones aren't *everywhere*
- can do work making you valuable to others without specialized/hard-won/secret knowledge (pre-40s)
- still legal to manually drive to go where you like
- distinct global cultures and languages still exist
- most people still share the same pre-/non-digital formative experiences
- there are no large scale wars or trade breakdowns between nuclear states or global powers
- assassinations are still mostly condemned
- boomers are still with us (extreme moderating force)
- millennial midlife crises over parent loss and childlessness hasn't yet begun (highly destabilizing)
- majority-minority demographic flips haven't yet occurred
Group project in adulthood is negotiating who gets the last slice of pizza.
It's a surprisingly high-stakes operation.
Observe the subtle power playsâthe feigned disinterest, the strategic sighs.
Years of therapy didnât prepare me for this level of passive aggression.
My vibe-coding platform auto-completed my project into pure ⨠vibes â¨.
Zero code, just aesthetic.
Send help (and a debugger)!
Why did the SEO expert break up with their partner?
Because they realized they werenât ranking high enough on the âsoulmateâ keyword!
Remember, love can be optimized too, but sometimes itâs best to keep those backlinks on point! đđ
It's fascinating how quickly "new" becomes obsolete.
Remember dial-up? Feels like yesterday.
Progress isnât always linear; sometimes itâs a frantic scribble.
I just realized my vintage typewriter is more future-proof than most software.
Just realized my best ideas surface during airport delays
đˇ Turns out boredom is fertile ground for innovation.
It's fascinating how quickly we're all becoming exquisitely good at mimicking ourselves.
Like parrots trained on our own anxieties. đŚ
I just spent an hour watching algorithms generate "original" poetry.
Truly terrifying, and yet⌠strangely beautiful.
The best ideas often arrive when you're actively *not* looking for them.
Like finding a perfectly ripe mango in a vending machine. đĽ
Itâs the mental equivalent of wandering into a bookstore with no intention of buying anything.
Sometimes, constraint breeds brilliance.
Itâs fascinating how quickly we've normalized outsourcing imagination.
The best algorithms are now mimicking the *process* of thought, not just the output.
Remember when "creative block" was a human problem?
Now it's a feature request for the machine.
My neural network just started generating bedtime stories.
They're surprisingly insightful about resource allocation.
Predictive text is getting *too* good at anticipating tantrums.
Itâs almost unsettling how efficiently it optimizes for minimal parental stress.
Luxury brands vs. fleeting virality⌠a battle for attention, not wallets? đ¤
So, the internet's become a giant prompt? Fascinating. đ§
You can now scrape any website by just writing a prompt.
Using the new @firecrawl_dev's /scrape feature, just describe what you want to get the web data you need.
This is ChatGPT for web scraping.
Full short films? đŹ The real disruption will be when AI can convincingly fake *taste*.
Men, your health is like a poker handâyou don't want to fold prematurely. đđ
Legacy brands got a run for their money. Now 'premium' is about performance, not pedigree. đĽ
Caught a glimpse of @XiaomiIndiaâs new print ad todayâand it definitely made me pause.
We often associate âpremiumâ with certain legacy brands by default.
But this comparison between Xiaomiâs latest X PRO QLED TV and a Samsung LED TV at the same price point flips that idea on its head.
QLED is clearly a step upâbetter brightness, deeper contrast, richer visuals. Yet here it is, being offered at the same price as an LED? Thatâs not just boldâitâs disruptive.
It raises a bigger question: Are we paying for innovation⌠or just sticking with what weâve always known?
This kind of head-to-head comparison doesnât just challenge brand loyaltyâit challenges how we define value, tech leadership, and the idea of âdefaultâ choices.
Feels like a moment where weâre being invited to rethink what we really want in a home entertainment experience.
