Atty. Zuleika Lopez, Chief of Staff of Vice President Sara Duterte, was detained for just 𝐚 𝐟𝐞𝐰 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬.

They jailed me for nearly seven years—𝟐,𝟒𝟓𝟒 𝐃𝐀𝐘𝐒 to be exact. Did you ever see me act like this?

Such behavior, especially from someone in a position of authority, disrupts the proper functioning of our institutions and weakens trust in the system. Isang kawalan ng respeto sa mga kinakailangang proseso ng pananagutan. Kailangan pa talaga haluan ng drama.

You promised “24 hours”. It’s been almost a week. This shitty application process and service makes me feel how shitty your internet connection must be.

@PLDTHome @PLDT_Cares @pldt

It’s been almost a week and I have yet to receive feedback on this. Your customer service hotline is useless and your chat bots prompts are shitty. Anuna?!?!

In 1985, Nike held a 24-hour shoe design contest.

Nike was struggling. Their stock dropped 50%. They had to lay off people. Adidas, Converse, & Reebok were all selling more shoes.

So in a panicked attempt to find creative talent, Nike held a shoe design contest.

The winner was

A corporate architect named Tinker Hatfield.

"Two days after the competition," he said, "I wasn't even asked—I was told that I was now a footwear designer for Nike."

As he got to work on his first official shoe design, he thought about a building he had studied in architecture school: The Centre Pompidou in Paris.

The Centre Pompidou is an inside-out building, meaning that the structural, mechanical, and circulation systems are all exposed.

“That building,” Tinker said, “was describing what it was to the people of Paris. And I thought, ‘Well why not do that with a shoe? Let’s cut a hole in the side and show what’s in the shoe.’”

So Tinker designed an inside-out shoe:

The Air Max 1.

The Air Max 1 was a massive success, and it steered Nike's design direction from then on.

"To this day," Tinker says, "Phil Knight says I saved Nike."

Takeaway 1:

Had he not studied that building in Paris, Tinker says, he couldn’t have created the Air Max.

Creativity, he says, is a function of the “library in your head."

“When you sit down to create something...what you create is a culmination of everything you’ve seen and done previous to that point.”

Takeaway 2:

Tinker Hatfield went to architecture school and then he was a corporate architect for 4.5 years. Then, literally overnight, he became one of the best shoe designers in the world.

This makes me think of a counter-intuitive discovery made by psychologist Charles Spearman in 1904.

Before Spearman, the natural assumption was that the more you specialize in one thing, the worse you’ll be at other things.

Instead, Spearman discovered "the positive manifold" phenomenon.

He found that different abilities tend to be positively correlated. That the expertise gained through specialization is transferrable. That the cognitive and creative abilities cultivated as an architect could positively correlate with being a shoe designer.

I wish more people stopped using ChatGPT on beginner mode.

Many people don't know this, but you can generate significantly better results.

Here are 10 examples to take inspiration from to supercharge your prompts:

@flyPAL Other airlines flying into PH at around the same time do not need to have “payload adjustment”. Why is it that only PAL is inconveniencing their passengers with this? So easy to cut corners whilst sacrificing service quality.

[PJ G @peejyaay]

@flyPAL cancelled my family’s New York to Manila flight TWICE. The hotline is barely responsive and ill-equipped, there are no assurances of expense refunds and it feels like the overall message of anyone from PAL we get to talk to is “Bahala ka na diyan”.

[PJ G @peejyaay]

@flyPAL It’s one inconvenience after another and, sadly, nothing but one “apology”after another from your side. It’s always the easiest and operationally cheapest solution for @flyPAL even if it means sacrificing the ease of travel of its passengers. Thanks anyway.

[PJ G @peejyaay]

@flyPAL the bare minimum expectation for airlines is to deliver both passengers AND BELONGINGS from point A to point B at the committed date and time. This should be basic. It is disappointing and frustrating how @flyPAL seems to be unable to do what is least expected of you.

[PJ G @peejyaay]

@flyPAL @flyPAL thank you for the response. However, on top of the hassle of the cancellations, the difficulty of reaching out to you, the wrong and unclear information you have been providing, there seems to be more undue stress on us passengers for this trip. *see image*
