5 years ago today I took a one way flight to Colombia and starting backpacking and volunteering around the world full time for a year.

Here are a bunch random things I learned that stay with me today 👇

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

I hate to say it, but @Meta is going to win AI

Never bet against the Zuck

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

@AndrewPierno super send

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

@TischDogger hey I thought we talked about not making this public

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

Does anyone know how to turn off the video reactions that happen spontaneously on Zoom or G Meet calls?

I learned today that is an Apple OS feature that is system wide.

We've all experienced this. You're driving and you look over and the person driving next to you has their face buried in their phone.

It's horrifying.

Stop using your phone and driving people.

@samshabrang @AnnieDuke shhhh I don't think Annie would appreciate you giving away the #1 takeaway from her book for free

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

Best book I read in 2023: Thinking in Bets by @AnnieDuke

A fun read with a ton of examples from poker, sports, business and politics on why it's so important to approach your decisions through a lens of inputs and probabilities.

This can be directly applied to teaching little ones to ski.

Waking up a 4am to drive up north. Putting on an enormous amount of uncomfortable gear. Getting really cold. Struggling to stay on your feet.

You have to help them learn to love it.

[Will Ahmed @willahmed]

A lot of good parenting advice in this video

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

@SpartyInTheUSA Yes I ordered you an industrial sized couch stain remover. I figured you may be in need of it

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

Very cool to see Amazon give up above the fold real estate for live TNF streaming embedded directly into the page

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

@SpartyInTheUSA I use Chrome for work and Firefox for personal. It helps my brain to keep things extremely separate like that.

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

This applies to everyone, not just developers. Anytime you are pulled out of doing deep work there is a huge cost to the organization.

Most organizations dramatically underestimate the need to have a proper culture around meetings.

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

I'm being told from @Clear that I need to upgrade to NextGen Identity+.

$100 to anyone that can explain to me in plain-english what this actually means.

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

I took a 6 hour Amtrak train yesterday.

The young woman sitting next to me browsed Tik Tok for the entire ride. Non stop.

I think we're still underestimating how much time folks are spending on TT and how it's likely influencing and rotting our brains.

[Foursquare @Foursquare]

Yesterday, we participated in a session at @Localogy Place 2023. @StuKendall, @LoKellSearch of @getuberall, spotlighted the need to arm businesses with reliable data to help take advantage of emerging trends.

Companies will dramatically overestimate how much their customers actually think about them.

Most users are busy and don't really care.

Which is why I would advise you *not* to email your entire customer base letting them know of your bad news.

@AthleticBrewing @ColonyGrill1

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

@ErikaCoaches @Airbnb @bchesky Makes sense. Wishing you the best with this - keep fighting!

[Stu Kendall @stukendall]

One of my greatest fears I have of being a father is my kids spiraling out of control into loneliness and isolation because of apps like this.

[Jules @julesterpak]

Meta’s AI personas are here. Buckle up y’all
