My all time favorite noir.
Evening viewing recommendation? Watch OUT OF THE PAST (1947) in our Jacques Tourneur collection! 🖤 Everything you want in a film noir you’ll find here: a tenacious detective (Robert Mitchum) spinning his wheels to make good, a drop-dead beauty (Jane Greer) up to no good
Roberto Clemente-inspired collage, including his number 21 Pirates jersey, cap, bat, cards and ticket from the game of his 3,000th game. (Milo Stewart Jr./National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum)
“I would like to be remembered as a ballplayer who gave all he had to give.”
The @pirates.com retired Roberto Clemente’s No. 21 on this date in 1973, and The Great One continues to inspire millions around the world.
If you avoid something — public speaking, tough conversations, networking — try practicing with AI first. Define the situation, let it play the other person, then ask for candid feedback.

It went well. Not perfectly — Claude pointed out clues I missed. But now I'm actually eager for a real networking event.
Me. Mister Introvert. Eager for a social situation.
I had Claude roleplay as a fictional small business owner at a networking event. She had a name, a backstory, and zero patience for a sales pitch.
It told me to start the conversation. My palms started to sweat.
I'm an introvert. Capital "I." Group settings drain my battery.
Networking events are my worst nightmare.
So I asked AI to help me practice. 🧵

Three years using AI has transformed how I work and solve problems.
Most people still see it as a threat.
When public opinion swings back, where will you be?

I won a local election by finding issues voters cared about.
Today?
AI's negative sentiment is that issue. But waiting for politics to decide your AI future is a mistake.

AI just scored a -20 sentiment with voters—worse than ICE. Politicians won't miss this wedge issue opportunity. Don't wait for the backlash to learn what you need to know.

Face ID stops working 48 hours after death.
Your family can't get into your phone without your passcode.
Have you told anyone what it is?

Only 24% of Americans have included their online accounts in their wills. Half have accounts with real monetary value their spouses know nothing about.
Is your family prepared?

Get busy living or get busy dying.
That's the AI choice facing every working person right now.

Your passwords will outlive you. Does anyone know where they are?
Apple, Google, and Bitwarden each offer tools to give your family access instead of a headache.
Here's how to use them. www.danchrist.com/passwords-ou...

Most people are waiting to see how AI plays out before they act. That strategy just got a lot more dangerous.
Block's CEO didn't wait. Neither should you.

Very cool. Has it gotten some good traction?
One CEO cut 4,000 jobs last month in a single day due to AI. This is happening right now.
Are you ready if it happens where you work?

Lose weight. Run better meetings. Ride your bike more often.
AI won't do these things for you. But it can remove the friction keeping you from doing them.

I will continue to use @anthropic.com and its Claude models to build tools. They’re superior.
But the grey here is extremely destabilizing to an already wacky sector.
Regardless, I’m thinking now about how I also support customers who may want other solutions. www.anthropic.com/news/stateme...
There's an amazing new film out: Molly vs The Machines.
Please, if you have children, go and see this film! It shows you that you really cannot trust #Meta ( #Facebook, #Instagram, #WhatsApp )

I built a working AI app during a meetup. By that evening, it was guiding us through a board game we'd never played.
No rule book. No confusion. Just fun.
You can do the same thing with whatever frustrates you most.

I used AI to eliminate mine and played two rounds of Ticket to Ride instead of one.
No tech skills needed. Just a frustration worth fixing.

Researchers studied how AI changed work habits at one tech company over 9 months.
The findings are alarming:
- Scope creep enabled by AI
- Work crept into meetings, personal time
- More multitasking = more cognitive load, burnout
Sound familiar?

That's super interesting, Michael.
For clarity, you're studying fatigue in high-output roles now?
