On my 30 minute break at the moment while watching some political videos on YouTube – I had John West Protein+ Tuna Roasted Tomato & Onion (link) along with a tub of yoghurt (link). Tonight I’ll go for a walk after work – it allows me to clear my head and have my brain reset itself so I’m ready to jump into bed rather than having the day replay in my head. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday I’ve been fasting as a reset to get my routine back on track again – I like to do that occasionally if I’ve indulged a bit and want to reset the routine which has a definitive break from what I was doing and starting afresh.

It is funny how the YouTube tech dude bros were whinging about how Apple were ‘behind the competition’ when it came to AI but then these same are the ones jumping onboard the ‘we hate agentic OS’ (post Windows 11 presentation) bandwagon. It is almost as though the YouTube tech dude bros jump from one grift to another grift, that there is nothing at the core of their being other than to hype the latest tech du jour because it get’s clicks and sponsorships (god help me I can’t stand the AI advertisements on YouTube – thank god I’ve got YouTube Premium on my personal computer). I was watching a video on YouTube (link) and I would argue that even their enterprise customers don’t want it either – a recent report noted that half of Microsoft’s sales staff cannot meet their sales targets in regards to getting business customers to upgrade to a subscription that includes AI features. If your business customers aren’t interesting in upgrading then maybe that is a clear indication that the ‘huffing your own farts’ that occurs in Silicon Valley has warped your understanding of what your customer base actually wants.
