7 Films I Love: 1. Perfect Days. Can you find enlightenment from cleaning toilets? After watching this Tokyo-based film, you might well think so. Perfect Days is beautifully shot and earned lead actor Kōji Yakusho (Shall We Dance) the Best Actor Award at the 76th Cannes Film Festival. 2. The Wild Robot. This is a family-friendly, “This is so cheesy! Why am I crying?!” type of feel-good watch. This film was adapted from the #1 New York Times bestselling illustrated middle-grade novel The Wild Robot by Peter Brown. 3. Argentina, 1985. I absolutely loved this film. It explains the brutal story—… Related

When Thompson died they shot his ashes out of a cannon (per his request) It cost Johnny Depp $5 million Quoting @essa_muse Hunter S. Thompson refused to come to the studio. The only way Conan could get him on the show was to meet him on a farm in upstate New York. To shoot guns. And drink hard liquor. They set up a full bar in a field. A bartender in a tuxedo handed Hunter a shotgun he’d never fired. Then an M60. They… Related

Startup employees and investors don't nearly pay enough attention to QSBS. Would have saved me millions of dollars at GitHub (ugh). QSBS got much more complicated, too, so I just shipped the most comprehensive QSBS calculator out there. Give it a shot: signed.com

I'm impressed with Claude Design. I see its disruption starting with smaller teams. As a founder I find myself turning to it more and more for the convenience of one-off design tasks. Sure, it's super slow, and one-shot quality is not quite there, and its image capabilities suck, but using it in between multi-tasking other things, it's helping me move faster. As @HarryStebbings says the "all-in-one" Claude interface has a huge psychological advantage as being the place people are already working. I don't think it's a great tool yet for a designer-designer (the speed / control dials are not ye… Quoting @HarryStebbings Why we switched from Figma to Claude Design “I let the team do whatever is best for them, and this is a trend I've observed amongst almost everybody: Claude Design has done a great job.

I I I I do feel that, you know, fully autonomous one-shot approaches are not the right approach for these problems. I mean, I I think you you'll get a lot more mileage out of the interplay between between humans collaborating with these tools.

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.

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.
