🔗 Trump To Order Redesign of Aircraft Carriers Because They Don’t Look Right
This comes after Trump just a few days ago ordered the Navy to go back to steam-powered catapults (the thing that hurls the planes forward off the ship for takeoff) from the new electromagnetic catapults. He apparently wants to do this because he once talked to a catapult operator who told him the old kind was better.
“Lasting innovation is built on connections.”
So true … across;
industries ➕ sectors ➕ geographies ➕ disciplines
and time … continuously ➕ continually … so that we keep in mind that we are in a marathon - not a sprint.
CONTINUAL creates the nodes of our community
CONTINUOUS forms the fabric that will sustain our community
TOGETHER … not ‘and’ … ‘➕’

🖋️ What Are These 'Systems of Engagement' Of Which You Speak?
For sixty years we have been building systems to manage what we know.
History - specific rules, behind firewalls, command and control thinking, dashboards, sales playbooks … and do not get me started on the ‘sales methodology’ industry.
The world changed. Slowly. Then all at...
🔗 Neil Vogel, CEO of People Inc., calls Google an “intentional bad actor” for using the same crawler for both search and AI.
Question - is Neil Vogel the ‘best thing since sliced bread’?
(Little Kiwi humour there.)
Looks Looked like a really interesting idea until I got to this screen. It speaks volumes.
👁️ I either broke the internet again or LinkedIN is down❓
Why were all these people at Auckland Town Hall last night?
Well, not to get ahead of ourselves - 🔗📼 this is what they thought at the end of it all.
Turns out they were waiting to hear ‘this guy’ perform.
He did. His name is Sheku Kanneh-Mason.
🔗 You can read all about him here.
27 years old Nottingham lad with roots back to Bahrain - and pretty much ‘the dude’ when you are talking Classical Cello - watch out ‘Yo Yo’. Seriously - BBC Young Musician at 17 and played at Harry and Meghan’s wedding at 19.
Last night? Great stuff - along with the 🔗Auckland Philharmmonia conducted by 🔗 Elena Schwarz. Interested to learn that her own first instrument was the cello - so I suspect we got something even more special.

Taking their bow …
Many thanks to Phil and The 🔗 BNZBA for the invite.
We loved it.

🎥 I watched 🔗The Client again. It is over 30 years old - which explains why all the great actors in it look so young. I remember enjoying it at the time. Not so much on the second ‘outing’ - a little bit ‘thin’ IMHO. BUT - still worth ★★★
📺 Finished watching Season 2 of 🔗 Sugar last night and every bit as good as 🖇️the first series. Don’t miss it. ★★★★
🔗 Daring Fireball: Amazon Is Spiting Customers With Unhelpful Order Confirmation Emails
The fact is, a lot of people use apps like Gmail for email that aren’t private. When you use Gmail, Google learns everything in your email. Amazon sees this as a competitive problem for them, not a privacy problem for users.
