@JuhaV1rtala @HagelinHeidi Intiassa kyllä rakennetaan vimmatusti myös uusiutuvia. Mumbaissa taas kaikkien bussien on tarkoitus kulkea sähköllä 2027. Jälkimmäinen toki ilmeisesti pikemminkin paikallisen ilmanlaadun parantamiseksi. https://t.co/VeL6iLlHjg

@KaunisPeli @Shuff247 @CoachPalotie Ainakin parissa teidän jaksossa, mukaan lukien tämä, olet @CoachPalotie puhunut, että trade deadline on maanantaina. Sehän on toki torstaina 6.3.2025. https://t.co/ubRnBoeyNm

@joni_jaakkola Saatan järkyttää joitakin, mutta olen eri mieltä. Kingiksen syömisen jälkeen tuntuu kuin olisi mutustanut vain heikkolaatuisen suklaapalan. Alkaa janottaa, mutta mikään juoma ei maistu sen päälle hyvältä. Kingis on teoriassa hyvä, käytännössä ei.

"Kirjaudu sisään" Ok.
"Anna koodi, jonka lähetimme sähköpostiisi" Ok.

@Maaninkavaara @TurreLegal Hetkinen, ymmärrän toki, että sopimusnumero voi olla eri. Mutta mitä ihmeen järkeä yrityksen on ylläpitää useampaa asiakasnumeroa samalle asiakkaalle? Ja eikö verkkolaskutustietojen pitäisi olla juuri sille asiakkaalle, eikä tietylle sopimukselle?

[Jukka Lahti @JukkaL]

Mitä tehdä, kun eräs operaattori väittää, että heillä ei ole yrityksemme verkkolaskutustietoja ja vaatii maksamaan paperilla toimitetuista laskuista myös perintäkulut, vaikka lähettää meille toisesta palvelusta verkkolaskun joka kuukausi? @TurreLegal @Maaninkavaara

[Jukka Lahti @JukkaL]

@Maaninkavaara @TurreLegal Vai niin. Tämä menee nyt rajusti meikäläisen ymmärryksen yli. Jos ostan yritykseltä A kahteen otteeseen, minä olen vastuussa siitä, että asiakasnumeroni säilyy samana.

[Jukka Lahti @JukkaL]

@Maaninkavaara @TurreLegal Kuuluuko minun se tarkistaa? Myyjäyritys on sama ja asiakasyritys on sama.

Why write an essay when you can type a few words and have AI generate one for you? Why write an email when AI can auto-respond for you with all the typical pleasantries and talking points?

While AI doing these things for you is likely to happen, it’s not necessarily a good thing. Even when these tools exist, they are not a replacement for writing.

Writing is the process by which you realize that you do not understand what you are talking about. Importantly, writing is also the process by which you figure it out.

Writing about something teaches you about what you know, what you don’t know, and how to think. Writing about something is one of the best ways to learn about it. Writing is not just a vehicle to share ideas with others but also a way to understand them better yourself.

Paul Graham put it this way: “A good writer doesn’t just think, and then write down what he thought, as a sort of transcript. A good writer will almost always discover new things in the process of writing.”

There is another important element to writing that often gets overlooked. Writing requires the compression of an idea. When done poorly, compression removes insights. When done well, compression keeps the insights and removes the rest. Compression requires both thinking and understanding, which is one reason writing is so important.

Great writing requires you to position your idea in a way that will resonate with the reader. Average writers start with what they want to say without considering how it will land with the reader. Great writers understand the journey starts with what the reader desires. Think of the difference as starting at the beginning or the end of a maze. When you start at the beginning, you have to convince people the path is the right one. When you start at the end, they already know you’re taking them where they want to go.

In a world of average writing available on demand, every organization will start communicating like a big one. The signal-to-noise ratio will change for the worse. If you’ve ever read a government communication, you understand how a lot of words can say nothing. Bandwidth will be filled with common ideas, verbose communication, and ambiguous jargon. In the future, information will become even more of a substitute for thought than it already is.

Many things can be done by tools that write for you, but they won’t help you learn to think or understand a problem with deep fluency. And you need deep fluency to solve hard problems.

A world of common thinking available on demand will tempt people to outsource their thinking and disproportionately reward people who don’t. In the future, clear thinking will become more valuable, not less.

ChatGPT comedy.

Helping a friend use chatgpt to respond to her Airbnb reviews. This one killed me.

The prompt:

“Please help me write a reply to a negative review I got recently from a guest at our Airbnb. They were upset because on a Friday and Saturday night we returned home late and when we got home apparently we woke them up as they were staying in our downstairs unit below us. We tried to be quiet but apparently we woke them up. Be empathetic. Mention this is our first noise complaint. Also mention how they should consider our upstairs unit next time. And be funny.”

The response:

Dear [Guest's Name],

We want to extend our heartfelt apologies for the unexpected "late-night concert" you experienced during your stay in the downstairs unit of our Airbnb. We understand that our late returns caused quite a disturbance and disrupted your much-needed beauty sleep!

We want to assure you that this is the first noise complaint we have ever received. As hosts, we usually excel at tip-toeing around like ninja turtles, but unfortunately, we seemed to have misplaced our stealth skills during your stay.

To ensure a more harmonious experience next time, we have an exciting solution for you: consider renting the upstairs unit! You'll be elevated to a higher level, away from any floor-shaking shenanigans that may occur. We promise a quieter and more peaceful stay, with no accidental "floor performances."

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to address this matter, and we genuinely appreciate your understanding. Should you have any further questions or if there's anything else we can do to assist you, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're here to make your stay nothing short of fantastic!

Once again, we apologize for the unplanned nighttime orchestra, and we truly hope to have the chance to make it up to you in the future.

Rock on!

[Your Name]

@MikkoKokkonen @tomiwalamies @KoomikkoKivi Jotkut varmasti loukkaantuvat oikeasti, mutta monesti kyse on rooliloukkaantumisesta. Siis avoimesti uskova tuntee, että hänen täytyy esittää loukkaantunutta. Saattaa hyvinkin olla, että hän on kertonut vitsiä eteenpäin lähipiirissään oikein innokkaasti.

@Postigroup Olisiko minun siis oltava teihin erikseen yhteydessä vielä neljännen kerran, jotta asia etenisi?

[Jukka Lahti @JukkaL]

@JariParantainen @Postigroup Niin, ja tokihan se samainen kampanjapostikortti jaettiin tuohon risaan postilootaan...
