In a way, it’s like that clip of the syndicated stations playing news anchors saying the exact same news the exact same way even though the stations were different.

Clipping campaigns are the modern form of that for brands, creatives and aspiring celebrities

Those and UGC campaigns exist that pay $1/1k views for posts with “approved” captions which can literally get this specific

@jameygannon I got my first computer at 17 and it was a 2014 MacBook Air. It carried me all the way through college. The first computer I bought myself was a spec’d out refurbished 2015 MBP in grad school because I literally didn’t have enough RAM on the air for VM labs. Wild to think about

It’s interesting to me how people clowned the google AI results summary when it first rolled out but it’s pretty common now to see it screenshotted and used as a good enough source in replies, videos etc.

One of my favorite details about this is that Michael didn’t feel his tie had enough motion when he was spinning so in the final take, they actually weighted it with a coin to give it more gravity. Like man, wtf…

I’m noticing my fearful relationship with sleep mirrors my old fear of forgetting things I’ve read.

I finally trust myself to remember things I’ve read. But I don’t trust myself to leave unfinished work. So I stay up late in a sprint to complete it. In this state, I forget to eat or drink. It doesn’t have to be this way.

Lately, I’m coming around to the idea that I’m capable of getting more done without expense to my health. I can trust myself to return. I can trust my curiosity. I can trust my creativity.

Building that trust takes time. It starts with one night, and then another and another.
