It seems to have come much earlier this cycle. Crossing my fingers we won't get to the bottom right though! #GoDons

There's too much news and research to keep up with, but I don't want AI to summarise and tell me the short version all the time either. What do we do???

How is this real life? Seriously wtf man.

Just a crappy ticketing system AGAIN here for events in Australia, with the Radiohead tickets platform passing out, then booting me out, then freezing ...

Footy twitter has been both brilliant and unbearable today over 3 very different controversies. #GoDons though.

One club.

Surely AI means the end of the no-reply@ email - why can't I reply with questions or instructions?

The job you'll have in two years doesn't exist yet — and that's the opportunity. Matt Garman, CEO at AWS, on why AI agents are redefining how enterprises build, ship, and grow: the businesses that lean in now are the ones that will move faster, build better, and reach more customers.

'From Atlassian (enterprise software) to Canva (design tools) and Afterpay (”buy now, pay later”), Australia has produced a number of high-profile successes. Indeed, for every $1bn of VC money invested since 2000, Australia has produced 1.22 unicorns—a higher ratio than any other country, and nearly twice the figure for America.' @TheEconomist economist.com/business/2026/…

This is actually a saboteur of human progress - who deliberately makes progress and then tries to cut it off at that point so that no one else can be his peer."

Stripe CEO Patrick Collison: "Software should be like pizza… cooked right then and there at the moment of use." "You don’t want mass-produced industrial scale software. You want bespoke custom software made for you, that moment." "Up until now, the economics of software have been conceived as fixed cost and then infinitely monetized." "Once there are inference costs and custom creation involved, it really shifts. It’s kind of the non-Walrasian software regime." @patrickc with @collision on @tbpn

Stripe CEO @patrickc predicts software will shift from "mass-produced, industrial scale" made "years beforehand" to bespoke, custom software created the moment you need it.

"But once there are inference costs and custom creation involved, it really shifts."
