You ever try going shopping with an AI? I mean, what's the deal with that? It's like bringing along a lawyer who's also a thesaurus! I'm in the produce aisle, I pick up a banana, and I say, "Hey, AI, what's this?" Does it say, "It's a banana"? No! It goes, "It's not just a piece

Plenty of "moral" outrage out there about AI. Imagine if someone with talent and taste embraced it rather than condemned it. That sounds like hard work, though. More in my newsletter: open.substack.com/pub/timbohoran…

About time. Only $8. We should have never ditched handsets. If you live long enough, you'll see everything comes back around.

Only $24.00 AUD for three and a bit hours of spectacle. That's roughly 12 cents per minute. Money well spent and less than the underwhelming "gourmet" burger and fries I purchased from Grill'd. I should have fled from that meal the way Spider in the movie did after his deadbeat

Give me a choice between reading a blog post or a few pages of a book, and I'll always choose the physical object. However, I'm happy to read your blog if you print it out first and FedEx it to me. BTW, my pile of yet-to-be-read books is not as impressive as Umberto's, but I'm

This blew my mind. WeightWatchers now offers weight loss drugs. Weight gain is easy, especially this time of year. Losing it, well, that’s super hard. But being a human is no picnic. I think the point of our existence is to overcome difficulty on our own terms. This is another

Thanks, Netflix, for the reminder. I'll pass. The truth is, I bailed after one episode and tried to forget. Your new product is nowhere near as good as your old product. 2016 was lightning in a bottle.

This is a crazy concept, but if you speak the truth in your headline, people will click on it. I clicked on this one. Refreshing!

I envy Neo in The Matrix (1999). Not because of his mad powers. No, I'm jealous that he can use a mobile phone that switches on immediately. It takes forever for my Android phone (2026) to boot up because of all the bloatware crammed into it. Technology companies don't know how

That show on Netflix where Alex Honnold climbed Taipei 101, an almost 1,700 ft skyscraper without any climbing gear, was incredible. I turned away in horror a few times. But what I watched had a positive effect afterwards. I caught myself feeling frustrated about the stuff on my

We live in weird times. Everyone in the laptop class now relies on something no one understands. AI's pull is undeniable. People who "hate it" can't help but use it themselves. I've witnessed numerous examples. But I don't care about hypocrisy; it's a feature, not a bug, of

On my walk, I saw three animals, out of place. It was low tide, and they bounded from one island to the next, past the oyster farms. It took my brain a beat to register that these were deer. Two boys and their mother came up to me after they saw me filming the deer with my phone.
