You Can See Everything reminds me a bit of the book The Lifespan of a Fact, in that truth is elastic, and there is a romance living between journalistic accuracy and artistic recollection.

There are moments in “You Can See Everything” that had me sick to my stomach with ptsd from bd calls.. what a journey!

Welcome back Zapier Automation Strategist (Customer Success)
Stripe just created a role that didn't exist 12 months ago (and they're paying multiple six figures for it)
It's called the Forward Deployed AI Accelerator.
They are hiring AI-native individuals to work directly with their marketing teams to fundamentally change how they work.
Each person will be assigned to a cohort of 20 marketers. Their job is to build custom AI tools and agents and coach each marketer until they are self-sufficient.
Basically, work with marketers until they automate their jobs.
Stripe's marketing org is betting that AI should not be an occasional tool but the default mode for all work.
But they also understand that most employees won't upskill themselves. They'll need someone who is embedded within their teams to build alongside them.
If you are AI-pilled, this is probably the role for you.
And this also gives a clear picture of where every organization within a company is heading.
I recently realized these beautifully designed books are published by Stripe Press, as in @stripe, the payment processor.
Seems they've been quietly and effectively building a publishing arm full of great design and research since 2018...
No pithy thread here, just kudos on their long-term brand sentiment strategy: infiltration of intellectual, institutional, legacy spaces. Beautifully designed books on infrastructure, economic history, maintenance, computing, and none of it directly about payments or fintech.
This is one of the saddest things. Congress voting to sell the Boundary Waters, our beautiful public land in MN, to a copper mining company in Chile that already promised the pending copper to China.
LIVE: Senators will soon consider the Joint Resolution that threatens the Boundary Waters. We expect several hours of debate, followed by a final vote tonight or in the morning. If you want to follow along live update tonight, we’re posting updates here:

I'm crying, such an amazing archive of live concerts. Listening to an old Robyn Hitchcock set now (I <3 the Soft Boys), so much warmth and liveliness in the audience and room tone, a human existence that's full.. not flat
