Happy birthday to the brilliant @profgalloway! 🎂 Keep challenging conventional wisdom, dropping uncomfortable truths, and making us all think a little harder (and laugh along the way).
Never stop! 🚀

We’ve raised $1.3M from YC & Afore Capital so you never have to type or speak again.
Typing is slow. Talking into your computer is awkward. Subvocal fixes both
Our glasses give you the speed of speech without you making a sound or touching a keyboard.
It tracks your internal speech muscles with non-contact sensing and decodes silent, almost invisible mouthing into text at more than 200 words/min.
Pre-orders are now live at:

About 15% of the variation in how fast people biologically age tracks with their gut bacteria, a new study found. Some species are linked to slower aging, others to faster.
My microbes apparently have a performance review coming.

Alo did almost HK$20 million in its first week at K11 Musea.
Wellness isn't a trend anymore, it's the anchor tenant. Hong Kong retail is being rebuilt around how people actually live.

In my research I’ve found a retail AI company that just launched an agent to represent stores when shoppers' AI agents show up.
Soon your assistant will haggle with theirs.
The brands that win will be the ones agents trust. Anyone else working on this?

LVMH Q3: fashion & leather down 5% organic, watches & jewelry up 6%.
My take: when the mood is uncertain, people buy the thing that feels like it lasts. Jewellery is the new handbag.

Carine Roitfeld says there is something very Parisian about wearing diamonds during the day.
Agree.
If a piece only works at dinner, it is a costume, not jewellery. Wear the good stuff on a Tuesday.

UBS cut Hermes to sell: the bigger it gets, the less scarce it feels. It estimates non-quota bags make up 65% of leather sales.
Scarcity is the product.
Growth and scarcity pull in opposite directions, so pick which one you're selling.

Gold fell more than 6% in September and jewellery split in two.
In India buyers are going lighter and lower carat. In the UAE they are buying 24k pieces that double as savings.
Same metal, opposite instincts: wear it light or hold it heavy.

Djokovic is 39, was a few points from losing in Beijing, and still rallied to stay 31-0 in the city.
Talent gets you to the final. Refusing to leave the point gets you the next round. Stay in the rally.

Everyone is building an AI that shops for you. Amazon just said no to Meta's.
So the real fight is not who has the smartest agent. It is who owns the checkout. Small brands, your customer relationship is the only moat an agent cannot block.

Paris this season: nobody is reinventing, everyone is editing. Dior went lighter, Saint Laurent went gilded.
Maybe the most modern move right now is knowing which house codes to keep. Same logic works for jewellery. Keep the signature, lose the weight.

OpenAI just launched Dots, an always-on agent, right after Meta's Muse.
The agent wars are officially consumer now.
My prediction: the winners won't be the smartest agents, they'll be the ones with taste. Nobody wants a proactive assistant with no aesthetic sense.

Great @myfirstmilpod!
