Product idea:
An app that tells you how AI will impact your job.
You enter in your data (or it interviews you) and it uses it to assesses the impact of AI on your specific job at your specific point in your career.

Ultimately it will provide guidance on how to adapt your career path to minimize AI's impact.

Would you use it?

The pursuit of revenge is the trait of a Bad Person.

No person pursuing a good life engages in revenge.

"What is great and eternal does not want to be bent by us." -- Rilke

When what you are doing is hard yet important...that's to be expected.

Keep trying.

"It" doesn't want you to win. You need to want it more than "it".

Lacking Empathy and Being a Bad Person are not necessarily correlated.

They often align in people, and a lack of empathy allows a person to do bad things more easily. But they don't have to be mutually an attribute of a certain type of person.

Living the life of a good person is usually harder than living the life of a bad person.

Try harder.

In order to live the life of a good person....

You need to understand what it means to live the life of a bad person....

And do the opposite.

It is possible to be a BAD person and not know it.

And, by "bad", I mean prone to making immoral actions and to degrading the progress of your community, the species, or the Earth's ecosystem.

There are a lot of bad people out there.

Hypothesis: The percentage is decreasing.
But, we're becoming more aware of their existence. So, it seems like they are increasing.

"we've all seen the Mitch McConnell sex tape....". - Stephen Colbert

Fuck.
Trump is in my neighborhood at a fundraiser.
All his freaky followers are here in trucks and prayer circles.
I'm locking the doors.

Nevertheless, growing out of the scar is your responsibility. Nobody else's. No blame can be cast on others. Only, maybe, towards yourself for supporting your own timidity.

Thinking about my childhood a lot lately. Unsure why.

Insight:
While you have control over who you become, you start from a reference point. You can only deviate from that point.

Like a tree that grows around an obstacle, it is still originally planted somewhere.

And, if scarred early on, it carries it onwards.

It might be able to "grow out of the scar", but the scar is still there.

Some scars make you stronger.

Some keep you from reaching your potential because of when they happened

The sky is an incredible blue.

We live on such a beautiful planet!

The colors are getting better.
Enjoy the sunset over the Golden Gate.

My COVID pod is sharing photos of the sunset tonight. Wacky group. :-). Nice to have friends nearby.

A detail.
Enjoying a glass of wine on the roof tonight.

Enjoy the Golden Gate bridge as the sun sets tonight.

Just developed a new skill.
I silver-leafed my wife's shoes.
They were scuffed up and she's attending a big event in NYC this week. She wanted to wear these shoes and made a mess of them on our vacation.

I might try some art using silver and gold leaf.
