Used to have teachers say “you can’t just write the answer. Show your work!” A lot of the discourse around computational advances today sounds very similar. Many congruent issues with addressing too - the teachers/regulators often don’t have but a single framework of thought. Imagination processes differently to get to similar answers.

There’s a new podcast coming from LeBron James and JJ Reddick called Mind the Game. This podcast is an exposition of the thinking, one could say “high-level thinking” behind some of the the better folks to have recently played the game. There is a piece of thought which considers topics and conversations like this to amount to a kind of “nerd-ing out.” A lot of pontification from those who do the thing and who are innately aware of the crevices which pass beyond the recognition of others who might simply see the outputs or results.

For the past week have been sitting with the term “gateway.“ In part, a recollection of Gateway Computers (mid-90s to 2000s).

For those in leadership roles, part of the “work” of your role is recognizing then stewarding people and processes through those changes. You are one part giving them steps to actualize a vision which was set before them. Continue reading →

…figure out what you did to break things and get back on track. Am back at being able to get up to speed with the Monocle project by Brilliant Labs. Purchased this and seems like might have treated it, or its case, a bit roughly. Decided that it was worth repurchasing this while waiting for their Frame iteration to come in. After a few hiccups with resetting Monocle via its Noa app on a few devices, am back at letting it be something of an assistant in training. Continue reading →

There’s definitely interest in the scope Avanceé proposes. Just need to clarify three words a bit better perhaps. <a href-“https://cdn.uploads.micro.blog/2274/2024/e54dad2466.png” target=“_blank”> Continue reading →
