Targeted flattery-spam/phishing aimed at harmless academics like me is leveling up! Book Club rubbish is so last month. Thanks, LLMs! I just got a highly elaborate six-paragraph one “from” Emily St John Mandel (of Station Eleven fame). The choice of author to impersonate is really quite clever. Like the book club spam, it’s trawling for somewhat vain people who are susceptible to flattery, which of course excludes academic authors [puts hand to ear] sorry I’m just getting an update LLMs Related

shout-out to indie wine club in tooting market which is where we're going to do all our AI hardware chats from here on out Quoting @danielfogg The problem with a device that can do anything is that you have to imagine what to ask it to do.

Apple's market cap was about $351–360 billion when Steve Jobs died. On September 1, 2026, Tim Cook's last day as CEO, it was $4.75 trillion. When Ballmer handed over to Satya Nadella in Feb 2014, Microsoft market cap was about $315B. It’s $3.7 trillion now. Similar outcome with Sam Walton and Wal-Mart. It went the other way with GE and Jack Welch. So, it cuts both ways, and I think the deciding factor is whether the underlying business quality, moat, and capital-allocation discipline survive the transition intact. Quoting @menakadoshi The events at HDFC Bank confirm two of my worst suspicions. One, celebrity founders and CEOs often leave behind a leadership vacuum. As the adage goes, nothing grows under a banyan tree. India is witnessing that more frequently as part of the great handover from post-liberalization leaders to the n… Related

Their words
The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman is a delightful whodunnit set at a retirement home in the English countryside. Great characters. Fun twists. An endearing sense of humor. Nothing fancy or experimental, just a pleasure to read (and what more can you ask from a book, really?). If, like me, you enjoy mysteries, you'll be in good hands with Osman.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
Got it
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
