Yesterday I decided to try DALLE-3 out by creating an original Tarot deck inspired by ~ all ~ other decks. The prompt considers all known designs and symbols, and translates them into singular but accurate cards. Numbers and text are hit & miss but always interesting.
One fun way to use this interactive climate maps is to click on your city and see which regions of the world share the same climate. Have a play with it - it's great fun: https://t.co/k9iMepMY2s
fun fact: tijdens de keynote hakt Apple een stukje 3k, 4k, 5k en 6kHz eruit wanneer ze "Siri" zeggen, zodat niet iedereens HomePods terug beginnen te praten 🗣️🚫
If I were to summarize Portugal in one sentence:
Portugal is a civilization with relatively strong uncertainty absorption rooted in family and social networks, but whose emergence capacity is periodically constrained by parochial habits that favor relationships over function.
In Drucker's language, Portugal is neither a nation of pure cosmopolitans nor pure parochials.
It is probably best described as:
A parochial society governed by increasingly cosmopolitan institutions.
That combination helps explain many Portuguese paradoxes: high social warmth and cohesion, but also recurring complaints about nepotism, low productivity, slow administration, and difficulty transforming talent into large-scale innovation.
It is also why many Portuguese professionals flourish when they move into highly cosmopolitan environments such as the United States, United Kingdom, Switzerland, or France, while remaining culturally very Portuguese in their personal lives.
