That's one solution to elite overproduction I suppose -- get a professorship at a prestigious university and convince your students to be mechanics. https://t.co/noeMTDH6qT

The stunningly brilliant voice of Michael Winslow doing Led Zeppelin’s “Whole Lotta Love”.

You will never hear music the same again.

RT @ChrisBloomstran: Pour a stiff🥃or two for a🧵on why a 1% tax on stock buybacks would be terrible policy. If you need further proof that elected politicians, lifetime bureaucrats and think tank tax “experts” lack an understanding of capital and business, look no further than this bad proposal. 1/

This is an excellent essay from our friends at @PermanentEquity, in which we have an investment.

Succession planning is a crucial aspect of keeping your company vibrant and of maximum value to all shareholders, yet many fail to do it.

RIP Tom Alberg.

He will be missed by many people. He was giant in the Greater Seattle community. I learned to be better manager, member of a board of directors and human being by watching watching Tom Alberg do it well. He was a leader in many ways and a terrific friend. https://t.co/vo1YuoXtuy
Tom Alberg was a giant in Seattle, a living link between one generation of tech here (aerospace and something called a "cellular network"), and another. Among the first investors in Amazon, he spent decades reinvesting those winnings in local companies. https://t.co/SUcxkK3jsW - Matt Day

RT @JeffBezos: My friend and a friend to many, Tom Alberg, has passed away. He was an early investor in Amazon and served on our board for 23 years. Tom was a visionary and also just a wonderful, good man. I was so lucky to have you in my life, Tom. We will all miss you dearly. https://t.co/JsRvxt8rI0

In office hours today I talked to a pair of founders who needed a new idea. It turned out they already had a great idea, but had been ignoring it because they didn't know how to "monetize" it. I told them to just build it. This thing could have 100 million users.

The 747 is a cautionary tale to anyone betting on disruptive future technologies. The obvious future for aircraft in the 1960s was supersonic, so Boeing put their B team on building the boring stopgap plane while they bet on the SST. Instead, tech plateaued & they sold 1.6k 747s! https://t.co/3nVmnfTTaO

The phonological loop of the brain is a rather recent development in human evolution.

The formation of Wernicke and Broca areas of the left hemisphere has a very short buffer memory.

Thus we use “cheats” to guide cognition of language.

In this specimen video we see the limits. https://t.co/lUqyqKX2vU - Brian Roemmele
