#Management in modern workplaces is about life and a focus on matching individual strengths with organizational strengths & needs through shared purposes; with conversations focused on development, so individuals and organizations can #thrive.

@teslaeurope I am patient. April 2016 I made a 1000 euro downpayment for a Model 3. In March 2019 I got my car and paid 6413 euro for Advanced Autopilot. When can I try what was promised over 10 years ago? @Tesla @TeslaNL @ElonMusk

I wonder who is building the first autonomous open repo that can accept anonymous AI contributions safely. I have some ideas for a framework. Wanna help? #OpenRepo

Cathie Wood just explained why the establishment will never stop coming for Elon Musk.

And the reason is worse than they think.

Wood: “Tesla was an environmental move, which I think a lot of people attacking his cars… they’ve forgotten.”

They didn’t forget. You don’t forget thirty years of marching and petitioning and begging for the machine that saves the planet.

Someone built it. Forced every automaker on Earth to follow.

Then they turned on him the moment he delivered exactly what they asked for.

Not because he failed them. Because he made them unnecessary.

A solved problem is an existential threat to every institution built to solve it. Kills the funding. Kills the committee. Kills every career that exists to manage the crisis rather than end it.

Wood: “I think he’s the Thomas Edison of our age… he wants to do the right thing to transform the lot of most of humanity.”

Edison was hated too. By the people who sold candles. Every revolution looks like an attack to the people it makes obsolete.

Wood: “What we learn about material science and technologies… is going to help us here on Earth as well.”

SpaceX is not an escape. It is a forge. Build under the most brutal conditions in the solar system and every breakthrough comes home.

Most people at his level stop building and start protecting what they have.

Musk picks the hardest unsolved problem on Earth and runs straight at it.

That is not what terrifies them. What terrifies them is he does it without their funding, without their approval, without a single thing they can hold over his head.

A man you cannot buy is a man you cannot control. And a man you cannot control who keeps solving the problems you profit from is the most dangerous human alive.

They will spend their careers trying to tear him down.

Their grandchildren will live in the world he built anyway.

#Meditation makes living harder but living life easier. #Vipassana #TheMindIlluminated Anyone can relate?

@saen_dev And a shared prompt foundation library and of course good developers with good refinements to determine the approach and defining the quality boundaries & metrics to help ensure senior-level output across the teams. Without the guardrails, you’re just accelerating technical debt.

Adopting AI for dev teams is actually not easy. Just like when CTOs were setting up CI/CD, it requires an eco-system. Now we need to do the same for #AgenticAI

Here is how I help my #SoftwareEngineering teams: https://t.co/6dNeX0ctce

@saen_dev It is less about a specific tool and more about the orchestration. We allow a mix for the doing (with model routing via GitLab), but the real stack is the Guardrail Layer: clear instructions for humans and agents alike with automated evaluations & pipelines, token budgeting, etc.

We have learned to trust computers for all kinds of things, remember saving documents every couple minutes? Now we ask AI to explain itself and provide proof and references. Will we soon learn to trust AI and not need the "save button" anymore?

Dutch elections! 93% of citizens are frustrated with "the government" so "we" create "new" parties to choose from: https://t.co/RUhtnUXKgj + https://t.co/XmxW686LfJ + https://t.co/BQYJ6uC0Jk + https://t.co/tUzJkSVZ0h + https://t.co/UjF0ilSZOJ please choose and #VOTE #TK2025

An anti-fragile society should rely on #GameTheory for its interactions, avoid the trap of #EvolutionaryMimicry by learning from its own mistakes, and require both #Leadership and #Management to guide its adaptation and growth in response to challenges.

News is like sugar for the brain: highly palatable yet profoundly damaging. Detach and detoxify yourself; reclaim your capacity to focus, think deeply and act constructively. #DigitalDetox #CognitiveBias #InformationLiteracy

[Pallieter Koopmans @Pallieter]

Ubiquitous consumption of news doesn't inform; it cultivates learned helplessness and oversimplifies complex realities, dangerously exacerbating societal polarization. #DigitalDetox #CognitiveBias #InformationLiteracy

Above-inflation investing is getting harder. Significant or even above average returns requires more work (or more luck). With most information available and open access to nearly all kinds of deal-types, the money is in increasingly in architecting the deal. #entrepreneurship

@Andercot @CJHandmer Imagine the heat from the sun all those black surfaces absorb vs small white surfaces of nuclear vs green plants that would reflect more sun heat back to outer space.

Why marketing will merge with sales and become a tech job: connecting platforms, integrating systems, and, especially, data management. Would you hire a data/tech manager or a data architect to run your marketing department?
