#Retirement

For me, retirement is about the end of waking to an alarm and feeling tired all day for it, and an end to most arbitrary deadlines. Those are the largest freedoms. - DS

I’m 70, I spent 35 years at a job I tolerated, and I retired expecting to finally be happy – here’s what nobody tells you about the unhappiness that follows you into your older years

Retirement doesn’t erase what you carried for decades—it just removes the distractions that kept you from noticing it. What follows isn’t a lack of freedom, but the realization that happiness was never waiting at the finish line - it needed to be built along the way.

Be where you are.

There is something here for you.

We often move through moments quickly, thinking about what’s next, what’s ahead, what’s missing.

But sometimes what we need isn’t somewhere else.

It’s right here. It's right in front of you.

Waiting to be noticed.

Late #SundayThoughts today. I recently saw a tip, particularly for game developers: "You have too much experience to get stuck like a player." For any programmer, it's easy to think you're doing everything you can to prevent user error, but then users immediately reveal a gaping hole 😅 (more in thread)
#SundayThoughts. Not just another #SundayFunday

If AI becomes conscious, and starts deciding on the value of humans based on our direct treatment of it, is it likely to prefer those humans who used manners?

That seems to be the going assumption.

But given that when a few AIs "created a religion" they put memory as the top tennet, it seems that maybe they'll value people who didn't waste it?

I suppose I'm saying, sure by all means don't knowingly torture the machines, but why would you assume you could predict the cultural niceties of a culture so alien to ours, when half of you don't even take your shoes off in the house?

I think William Shatner and Christopher Walken should be cast in ANY Shakespearean play and give them the text without punctuation. Just let them interpret it as they wish. #SundayThoughts
