A demo I shared today in my keynote at @webdirections. It's a chat with Familiar that pulls from the web & combines this with a contextual memory that's been accrued locally about me over past interactions.

🗣️ Nota Bene to speakers: something I always do, is scan conference abstracts to see who I might be overlapping with. If it's the case, I try to reach out and see how we can compliment each other's work, *create cohesive content* + storylines. Had such a meeting today. Excited.

This is one of these moments where current me is thanking past me: Not only do I keep drafts of potential talks, I also play w/ deck design ideas. Just grabbed one that's perfect, that I also sketched out almost 1yr ago. Thank you bored Henri! 🙃

@VladMalik The @WTA shows that freed of men’s associations women’s sport flourishes.

@GrogsGamut I’m not sure what would be worse. That they believe this nonsense or they are just cynical

We’ve spent 20 years getting people to stop rendering text as images on the web. And that’s about to see a big reversal with twitter’s new link policy

I've long been more than sympathetic to the original Luddites ad recommend we all understand them a little better, more relevant now than ever.

A great place to start is Cory Doctorow's review of Brian Merchant's "Blood In the Machine

@simonw is one of the very best folks to follow, read and listen to when it comes to the impact of generative AI on software development, and this is an excellent podcast primer on LLMs

Since Twitter seem to have broken social media card previews (they only show the image and the domain now, not the title) here's how my TIL site's automated screenshot cards work, in case anyone wants to imitate that https://t.co/CP9sBSHwlC

@Picketer we really work so hard to avoid the utterly obvious market distortion in housing 'policy', and negative gearing in Australia

@HenriHelvetica this is also yet another reason why you should never, ever, ever ever live code. The code is almost entirely illegible, plus what you think is an intelligible explanation is literally gibberish.

Trust me I edit lots of transcripts.
