Cada ola de modernidad urbana ha sido contestada desde el mundo rural con otra ola reaccionaria de gente que encontraba en los cambios que se iban imponiendo una amenaza a su modo de vida, tradiciones y fé.

Una contestación que en ocasiones ha llegado a provocar guerras, incluso, como las Carlistadas o la mismísima Guerra Civil.

Enfrentamientos en los que, con matices, tenemos más o menos claro quienes eran los "buenos" y quienes los "paletos que querían detener el progreso".

El tema es que yo veo a dónde vamos ahora: ciudades sin personalidadcomidas por las franquicias, tiktok, PAUs que son guetos de pijos, sanidad concertada, importación de todo lo básico, ultracentralismo, carne de laboratorio, turismo como principal fuente de ingresos, lo queer, harinas de gusano, marketing, vacaciones de ir a un parque de atracciones para turistas para copiar la foto que viste en Instagram hace 2 meses...

...y me siento el mismísimo Zumalakarregi



Andrey Sidorov, Deputy Dean of world politics at the Moscow State University on why Russia loves Donald Trump and the Republican party:

“I will always root for Trump. Trump is a direct path to civil war in the United States.”

in reply to Matthew Sheffield

What was in the content that Russia paid for from Tim Pool, Benny Johnson, and Dave Rubin? Ragebait about trans people, race, civil war, illegal immigration, guns, and Elon Musk.

If you believe right-wing narratives on these topics, you're being manipulated. You're thinking what Russia wants you to think. wired.com/story/influencers-te…

Is this an old/sick tree, or was it hit by lightning? I think a part of it is burned, but there are still leaves on some branches, and a lot of the bark has separated.
in reply to Erik

This tree was struck by lightning according to witnesses. It looks a bit different from yours, but it's a different kind of tree too.

I'm not saying that I'm podcasting again... but I'm not *not* podcasting.

I got to guest host on the Denoise podcast and have a great talk with some fantastic Blender artists. I'm biased, but I think it's well worth a listen.

An important product management skills is understanding and articulating trade offs.

Driving long term strategy or short term execution is all about prioritization and asking what should we do now versus later versus never.

Using frameworks like ICE are a PM’s secret weapon.

in reply to Dare Obasanjo

After a decade spent chasing different prioritization methods, I... disagree.😞 CD3, ICE, WSJF, etc are inevitably a prop, a stand-in for when you don't have trust and good communication with your stakeholders. They can help buy you time to build those relationships while you deliver something, but they rarely actually improve on your intuition. Better is to relentlessly focus on an agreed goal (eg impact mapping) and demonstrate repeated small wins in that area until it's nailed.

I agree the three axes of ICE are well-formed and roughly orthogonal

And it's super useful to build consensus about various approaches' relative ranking on each axis

But the metrics-engineer/ersatz-data-scientist parts of me are _so upset_ by the idea of summarizing by _adding_

"A New Hampshire man is fighting for his life because of a mosquito bite. Fifty-four-year-old Joe Casey of Kensington has tested positive for three mosquito-borne viruses, including eastern equine encephalitis (EEE) and West Nile Virus..... He was positive for EEE, for West Nile, and St. Louis Encephalitis, but the CDC, the infectious disease doctors, they don’t know which one is making him this sick..."
