Nailed how this currently feels.
The biggest damage AI is doing right now is making you want to multitask in the name of productivity. You enjoy each task less. If you're watching a movie, might as well prompt Claude every few minutes. If you're given 10 tasks, just open 10 terminals. It's impossible to focus. Focusing feels unproductive. It's TikTok for work. They got you when you're off the clock, and now they've got you when you're on it. In a few years your brain will be liquid.

Such a good way to follow along when you're only *kinda* following along. Love it.
⚽️ I love the World Cup, but it’s always more fun when you know a little background, a little drama, a little gossip around each match. So I made a little web app that gives you context for every game. Meet Gossip Goals. XOXO 🔗⬇️

Replying to @scottastevenson
Really love your stuff but this ignores the point that making stuff for people requires one to empathize deeply with others (ie be human). The ruthless Xmaxxers seem like automatons - all my favorite builders were also aesthetes. Cooking, walking, chatting, napping, reading, gardening, painting, whatever has a bad ROI on the time, but the knock on effects of creativity, ability to empathize with your fellow humans, and build things the world is glad exists cannot be underestimated.

Congratulations to @harriweinreb — it's a hilarious special. I and the rest of the Nemeroffs are so proud that the award in Nick's name (*Misdirect: the Nick Nemeroff Comedy Grant* from the @TheCdnAcademy) has gone toward helping Harrison make this a reality. Watch it!

Sometimes being on the internet pays off in ways beautiful and weird; discovering this podcast was one of those ways. And now I am on it, dissecting my love for @tmbg and their underappreciated album Factory Showroom. ❤️
Episode 276 - YOUR OWN WORST ENEMY - is out now! Alex Nemeroff @nemy makes his debut on the show to talk about 70s soft rock, odd 90s music technology, and this great little track from Factory Showroom. open.spotify.com/episode/7hC…
