Yesterday an email exchange between the late Steve Jobs and some executives at book publisher Harper Collins made the rounds. Tho most commentary, retweets and reblogs focused on Steveās negotiating tactics, I found another aspect of the exchange equally interesting.
Rather than the message,...
ā¦ālook at how rich people are living todayā.
Was said as a passing comment in a recent conversation. But I couldnāt let it just pass.
Think about it.
When you imagine Gordon Gecko from the movie Wall St. what image do you have in mind? Mine is the one of the poster boy of wealth clutching...
āThings can change in an instant, so why not live truthfully?ā
The NBAāsĀ Jason Collins has now become the first openly gay athlete playing in one of the four major sports in North America.

I just want to live this quote.Ā
Nab this one for your yearbook quote, rising seniors!Ā

Live in the future, then build whatās missing.

R. S. Gable, āActive/Lethal Dose Ratio and Dependence Potential of Psychoactive Drugs,ā 2006
Interesting!
I had to look up the horizontal axis. As you move to the right, the āactive doseā (to get a buzz or whatever you want your drug to do) approaches the lethal dose. So the active does of caffeine is 1% of the lethal dose, and the active dose of alcohol is 10% of the lethal dose.Ā

Convincing yourself that what you did was good enough, when you could have tried harder. Pushing at what Iād call the āmolecular levelā ā that last microscopic bit of effort, trying so hard to make your fingers stay on a hold that if you fail it is for absolutely mechanical reasons. Giving up at the finer level is still giving up. It keeps us from reaching our highest potential.

The quote is about climbing, but true in our context too.

Boston. From thejives.
We left the boxes in the village. Closed. Taped shut. No instruction, no human being. I thought, the kids will play with the boxes! Within four minutes, one kid not only opened the box, but found the on/off switch. Heād never seen an on/off switch. He powered it up. Within five days, they were using 47 apps per child per day. Within two weeks, they were singing ABC songs [in English] in the village. And within five months, they had hacked Android. Some idiot in our organization or in the Media Lab had disabled the camera! And they figured out it had a camera, and they hacked Android.

Five Things NOT to Say
Here are 5 things to avoid saying to someone with FMS, ME/CFS, or other āinvisibleā illnesses:
āYou look greatāyou must be feeling better.āLooks can be deceiving. Itās possible, even likely, that weāre just getting better about concealing how we feel,ā¦
I feel like Iāve reblogged this before but it bears repeating.
Always important. My coworkers are excellent at doing and saying the right things.
gotta get better
Instead of thinking about virality, I think the focus should be on what makes something worth sharing to begin with. I think emotion plays a big role. What do people really love, what gets people to feel something, what sorts of experiences can you give people that they would want to give to someone else. Thinking about it on a more personal level keeps the process of making content grounded in something real and approachable, and I think that results in better media overall.
Ze FrankĀ
Havenāt you ever seen something on Facebook (or other sites where ālikeā is the only option) and thought, this is an incredibly important topic, but I donāt ālikeā it ā I donāt like climate change, political corruption, sexism, racism, or homophobia. Ā
Doesnāt the āculture of likeā create a culture of silence around things that are difficult, unpleasant, or wrong?
I think it does.Ā
So the guitarist for Britney Spears and Rihanna contacted Dylan from Daemoness Guitars (absolutely fantastic instruments and way out of my price range :\) asking to be an endorsee. Dylanās response is nothing short of legendary:
Hi Alex, Thanks for the interest in my guitars. I donāt know if...
most awesome door ever - a cymbal with a buzzer, a speaker, a peephole and a camera(?)
