• Just What You Want: Information about Footnotes

    Updated: 2025-07-11 09:53:00
    No smart software to write this essay. This dinobaby is somewhat old fashioned. I am completing my 14th monograph. Some of these 150 page plus documents became books. Examples range from The Google Legacy, published in 2003 for a client and then as a public document in 2004 by Infonortics Ltd., a specialty publisher somewhere […]

  • Google and the EU: A Couple That Do Not Get Along

    Updated: 2025-07-11 09:37:00
    Google’s EU legal woes are in the news again. The Mercury News shares the Bloomberg piece, “Google Suffers Setback in Fight Over EU’s 4.1 Billion Euros Fine.” An advisor to the EU’s Court of Justice, Advocate General Juliane Kokott, agrees with regulators’ choice to punish google for abusing Android’s market power and discredits the company’s […]

  • Win Big at the Stock Market: AI Can Predict What Humans Will Do

    Updated: 2025-07-10 09:53:00
    No smart software to write this essay. This dinobaby is somewhat old fashioned. AI is hot. Click bait is hotter. And the hottest is AI figuring out what humans will do “next.” Think stock picking. Think pitching a company “known” to buy what you are selling. The applications of predictive smart software make intelligence professionals […]

  • BBC Warns Perplexity That the Beeb Lawyers Are Not Happy

    Updated: 2025-07-10 09:37:00
    The BBC has had enough of Perplexity AI gobbling up and spitting out its content. Sometimes with errors. The news site declares, “BBC Threatened AI Firm with Legal Action over Unauthorised Content Use.” Well, less a threat and more a strongly worded letter. Tech reporter Liv McMahon writes: “The BBC is threatening to take legal […]

  • Apple and Telegram: Victims of Their Strategic Hubris

    Updated: 2025-07-09 09:53:00
    No smart software to write this essay. This dinobaby is somewhat old fashioned. What’s “strategic hubris”? I use this bound phrase to signal that an organization manifests decisions that combine big thinking with a destructive character flow. Strategy is the word I use to capture the most important ideas to get an organization to generate […]

  • Humans May Be Important. Who Knew?

    Updated: 2025-07-09 09:37:00
    Here is an AI reality check. Futurism reports, “Companies that Replaced Humans with AI Are Realizing their Mistake.” You don’t say. Writer Joe Wilkins tells us: “As of April, even the best AI agent could only finish 24 percent of the jobs assigned to it. Still, that didn’t stop business executives from swarming to the […]

  • Can AI Do What Jesus Enrique Rosas Does?

    Updated: 2025-07-08 15:01:47
    Just a dinobaby without smart software. I am sufficiently dull without help from smart software. I learned about a YouTube video via a buried link in a story in my newsfeed. The video is titled “Analysis of Jeffrey Epstein’s Cell Block Video Released by the FBI.” I know little about Mr. Rosas. He is a […]

  • Curation and Editorial Policies: Useful and Are Net Positives

    Updated: 2025-07-08 10:13:00
    No AI, just the dinobaby expressing his opinions to Zillennials. The write up “I Deleted My Second Brain.” The author is Joan Westenberg. I had to look her up. She is writer and entrepreneur. She sells subscriptions to certain essays. Okay, that’s the who. Now what does the essay address? It takes a moment to […]

  • New Business Tactics from Google and Meta: Fear-Fueled Management

    Updated: 2025-07-08 09:52:00
    No smart software. Just a dinobaby and an old laptop. I like to document new approaches to business rules or business truisms. Examples range from truisms like “targeting is effective” to “two objectives is no objectives.” Today July 1, 2025, I spotted anecdotal evidence of two new “rules.” Both seem customed tailored to the GenX, […]

  • We Have a Cheater Culture: Quite an Achievement

    Updated: 2025-07-08 09:37:00
    The annual lamentations about AI-enabled cheating have already commenced. Professor Elizabeth Wardle of Miami University would like to reframe that debate. In an opinion piece published at Cincinnati.com, she declares, “Students Aren’t Cheating Because they Have AI, but Because Colleges Are Broken.” Reasons they are broken, she writes, include factors like reduced funding and larger […]
