I bought this excellent book.
This is the best picture in it. By far. Captioned "Joggers, Eugene Oregon, 1969". Real pioneers. People doing a thing before the there was gear for that thing.

DelightOps. I'm writing that first, before anyone else does. It's going to be a thing.

This tweet from Rachel is bang on. Spare me from the attentionistas.
"I’m v uncomfortable saying that some ways of paying attention are better than others. “Time well spent” is too close to the idea that individual productive flow is nirvana, rather than, say, psychological safety, escapism, idle curiosity, relaxed time with loved ones, etc. etc."

I have some Apple AirPods. Big fan. You can skip a track by double-tapping on them. I do that a lot, I double tap my way through my Spotify recommendations while walking to work on a Monday or Tuesday. I've noticed that I tend to do it in time with the track. Normally on the 4 and the 1. The upbeat and the beat. Once a former percussionist always a former percussionist. It's a small thing but it makes me happy. I often feel I have to wait until the end of a measure and that gives me a fraction more time to listen to the track and to decide not to double-tap, with my finger hovering next to my ear, like a close-protection officer not sure if they want to be summoned to take a bullet.

The honesty and clarity in this interview is fantastic. Imagine if footballers talked like this. Or business people.
Great postgame interview honestly
