If it doesn’t scale, it’s a hobby.
→ Systemize it
→ Automate it
→ Get out of the way
Your business should grow when you’re not looking.
Build the machine.
Don’t add 5 income streams when you haven’t mastered one.
→ One offer
→ One funnel
→ One repeatable result
Multiplying noise multiplies headaches.
Compound what converts.
One first. Then many.
Simple businesses win because they’re easy to run and easy to buy from.
→ Clear offer
→ Clear audience
→ Clear delivery
Complexity is where profit goes to die.
Keep it simple. Scale it big.

It's not completely symmetrical but it's close enough for me! The stars you see in the centre are from a bad astrophotography attempt a few months ago!

This defense of #statusquo and #incrementalism as the ONLY way forward is jaw-dropping in its complete denial of the #urgency and #scale of #climatechange
#Influential people like this writer are simply unwilling to engage with the catastrophic impacts faced by folks in the #developing world where there is no recourse. For these folks - it is all a #game
Can anyone recommend a modern body weight scale that is accessible, either via self-voicing, or bluetooth connection? If via self-voicing, anything that doesn't shout the measured weight so loud, that anyone within 500 feet can hear it? Anyone who has used these products in the past will most certainly be aware that the "blind equals deaf" stereotype that is clearly pervasive in the overwhelming majority of these products. I'm hoping there is something out there that does not make this assumption, and has a volume adjustment beyond mute and yell.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Will AI take your job? The answer could hinge on the 4 S’s of the technology’s advantages over humans http://theconversation.com/will-ai-take-your-job-the-answer-could-hinge-on-the-4-ss-of-the-technologys-advantages-over-humans-258469 #AI #speed #scale #scope
@lokjo Ah yes, now I found the long version, good video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxhxL1LzKww

So I was watching Sean Carrol talk about scale in terms of energy in electron volts.. from a neutrino at possibly around 10^-3 ev to 10^37 ev.. the top of the Planck scale at around a freight train's energy.
So Im thinkin..well.. freight train isnt so much.. but then..thats
**for every particle** like.. a few drops of water has trillions..

Among supporters of #DirectDemocracy, I noted these thinkers: #Clisthenes, #Rousseau, #Diderot, #Arendt, #Proudhon, #Castoriadis, #Brown, #Dardot, #Laval, #Negt, #Kluge, #Lefort, #Abensour, #ColliotThélène, #Mouffe, #Rancière. Aside from #Gauchet's thought (whose critique I published below), I haven't read any valid critique of #DirectDemocracy, except for the #Scale issue, as we've already discussed.

Scale… grow… ever larger… always…
Motherfucking rocket ships baby!
Who’s gonna be the European Elon Musk? We need one, right?!
Let’s embrace Big Tech and recreate Silicon Valley in Europe because what could fucking go wrong?
Instead of say… supporting small, decentralised technology that protects human rights and democracy. No, sorry, we have no money for that sort of crap.

(In our ten years of existence Small Technology Foundation has not received 1 fucking Euro from the EU. And this, so very clearly, explains why. Enjoy your European version of US technofascism when it arrives. You’ll have deserved it fully.)

First plague, then war.
“Regardless of which measure you consult, the past year has seen a sharp increase in global #spending on #defence. Budgets totalled $2.7trn in 2024—up by 9.4% from 2023, the biggest jump since at least 1988.
#Military outlays now account for 2.5% of countries’ gdp on average, and 7.1% of government budgets. But the increase is even steeper when adjusted for purchasing power (see chart 1). With help from #PeterRobertson of the #UniversityofWesternAustralia, we estimate that global #defence #spending rose by 10% in real terms.”
What got me to read the article? The notation, “$bn, log scale” graph. #Graphs shown in log #scale.
Meaning the economist pitch to readership is high in statistical education OR it’s from an Academic source.
