Thank you for this. I couldn't agree more about this being busy work. Which there seems to be a lot of in the PM world. Personally I've found basic shapes and text boxes, or felt markers, infinitely more helpful at getting direct

"a team of a couple hundred people. That team might cost $50 to 100 million in salary a year" 100m between 200 is 500K average salary. Seems exceptionally high.

I recently heard a comedian say "The Internet has flattened our culture" and that idea has really stuck with me. So similar to Lisbon "losing its essence" I was in Berlin recently and noticed many of the city's dist

Also check out modern recreations of the hydraulis. A unique Ancient Greek instrument that was apparently the early forerunner of the organ.

The comments made me realise there's no national flag with lots of vertical stripes. Seems like a hole in the market. Someone alert CGP Grey!

I'm curious how stainless steel is a nightmare to maintain. My (basic) understanding of the material is it's meant to be very low maintenance.

What a wonderful read. Makes me slightly bothered he didn't get so much as a cameo in the Oppenheimer film. The book the author referenced, Turing's Cathedral, is a great read for anyone who enjoyed this and wants to know more.

I'd like to see metrics for Turkish. I was told by a native speaker that it developed over the years for efficient military communication purposes and I've learned it as a foreign language for a couple of years. There's an un

Those specific images all seemed recognisably AI-generated to me. Not that AI can't generate images which would be indistinguishable.

It's reasonably hidden, lots of redevelopment work going on around that sculpture at the moment. Hopefully the setting improved a bit.

Isn't there a volcanic eruption happening Iceland right now? I think that one is already out of date.

These numbers imply 4.5% of the entire UK population had an active GitHub account in Q3 2023. Seems very high. Unless there are people out there with huge numbers of accounts? Can anyone explain this?

I knew a chap in the band Teeth. They faked a media storm about how they "hacked the Pope's Twitter account" by guessing the password. But they never did. Then the real media picked up the story. Next day came the real story:
