Who Attends the Meeting?
1 hour ago
We used to be organized, now we hope pointing an AI agent at our work is going to resolve the issue. It won’t. That’s not how it works. You need some base level of organization and standards to make it work. Also, have you noticed how organized teams are able to adopt AI faster? Want more?

What’s the Priority?

The New Car Smell
Greg Thomas
Nothing defines new better than a new car smell. It evokes a feeling of something being yours for the first time. It has become the definition of the scent associated with new, so much so that we have cans of it we can buy (but they don’t evoke the same feeling).

Loss of Flow
Three years ago, all you could find were blogs and blogs, books, podcasts, everything and anything that would help you achieve Flow. The zen state where you are in full-throttle mode, accomplishing anything and everything. Now, today, we couldn’t care less – AI will do it for me if I don’t get into Flow or someone else on my team. Interrupt me 17 times a day, pile on more and more interactions, as many as you want, because in between I’ll send out a prompt for AI to do some more stuff for me. And what you’ll end up with …
