The accuracy

I am slightly ashamed to admit that it finally happened: I finally had an app idea and was grateful for AI tools that allowed me to build it, and now I am so excited about it that I can't sleep

Squad goals tbh

Many of you will also love this factoid: The first 19 teams in the AP preseason Top 25 all made the tournament. All 19 of those won at least their first-round game, except for one. . .

@bobbyfirmino.com random question but I'm trying to tell some people about a classic tweet of yours. You were saying that some star PG had plateaued leaving people GRASPING to tell him apart from Elfrid Payton. Does that ring a bell? Any idea who you were talking about?

I will say that my IG is full of amazing Mo Salah goals the last 24 hours or so, and that is really nice

The Insta algo serves me a shocking amount of recent Kosta Koufos pickup basketball content

Farewell, Mo Salah

"AI automation just frees you up to focus on higher-value tasks!" The higher-value tasks: - Setting my fantasy baseball lineup - Watching Key & Peele sketches - Listening to a podcast about sharks

When I have tickets to Bucks-Jazz and then see that Giannis is out for at least a week

Why can't my team play like this all the time?

Really glad Mo got one after that pen

Just passed a bunch of students who appear to have walked out of American Fork junior high protesting ICE. There’s a cop car parked on every block. The kids are alright

This would have completely ruined my day in my 20s and 30s. But today I blithely confirmed the presence of the TV, walked back to my desk, and proceeded to go right back to being angry at a sales rep who added me to a 5 PM meeting with no prior context. Proud of how much I've grown in indifference

There was a time in my past when sauntering into a break room full of colleagues I don't know clearly having some sort of get-together, and interrupting a speech by the SVP/Deputy GC, to check whether the room still has a TV I can plug into for March Madness viewing would have thrown me for a loop

The only Oscar I care about tonight is Tshiebwe

Real ones know that Instacart is actually the smart financial move when Costco is involved, because it keeps you from impulse buying $300 worth of candy and toiletries when you go in there yourself. The fee and tip is so worth paying

Laker Fans Furious As Bam Adebayo Dies In Even Worse Helicopter Crash

I can’t say this on there, but I do not believe any of these treasured colleagues of mine on the Adobe Slack who are saying that they would stop watching their favorite NBA team if they got SGA because of his foul baiting. I’m proud enough to believe that I know them better than they know themselves

Huge “Kobe’s final NBA game” energy, to me at least

Find yourself someone who loves you as much as product marketers love pretending they aren't terrified by saying "This move by our competitor simply validates our strategy and direction"

Be the Supreme Leader of SAAS! How the Reign of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei Can Teach AI Forward Brands to Write Emails That Sell!

I'm laughing about someone quitting their job to focus on vibe-coding Salesforce CRM in their bedroom, somehow getting 20 enterprise customers to bite, and making like $5 million a year I may not be laughing later, but I'm laughing now

The NBA to Tony Jones:

Benioff looks he has aged 20 years in the last 18 months (relatable tbh)

This is the image that keeps coming to my brain: Dr. Alan Grant keeping the kids behind him, staring down the velociraptor who is absolutely, 100% going to eat him, and there's really nothing he can do except say "you'll have to go through me first" with his eyes

Spoiler alert: it’s “all of them”

I had been promised that today's LLMs don't confidently say things that are nonsense, but I just asked GPT 5.2 to make sure Ha-seong Kim is healthy before I bid on him in fantasy; ChatGPT says he's "totally healthy," and WHOOPS you'll never believe who it turns out is expected to miss all of April.

The streets are saying that @lennysan.bsky.social's podcast/community is no longer a PM podcast/community, it is "an AI podcast/community that dabbles in PM." Lenny, can we PLEASE get more episodes with normal PMs talking about product management? So much is changing due to AI, but not EVERYTHING 🤷🏻‍♂️

WIPE THAT ONE OUT, VAR

Man, Rio has the juice

I woke up and turned on the game, and then, much like the Liverpool squad itself, it seems, proceeded to sleep through most of the first half

This is the kind of thing a rich CEO says at the beginning of a science fiction movie to establish for the audience that he is a sociopath and the villain.

I am at a point in life where I’d rather learn to play Little Shop songs on the piano with my daughter than eat a delicious but filling burrito

Seeing every company seemingly become a sports betting company reminds me of the Please Don't Destroy SNL sketch where JC Penney and Jiffy Lube get into hard seltzer youtu.be/iBpgqRbEFVg?...

"Coding is largely solved" says the head of Claude Code on a popular AI podcast that used to be a product management podcast. I'm shocked—shocked!—that the head of Claude Code is bullish on AI code generation. ("Analytics is largely solved" says Ben Gaines)

I want to go one day—just one—without reading a thinkfluencer prediction of an AI future that, somehow, only they and their followers and sycophants are prepared for

BREAKING: Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen will undergo season-ending dimpleplasty, league sources tell ESPN

I dunno why it never occurred to me until about six weeks ago to stop sharing my calendar with my organization. It has been a total cheat code, an A++ LPT. I still have about 95% of the same meetings but I am so much more in control of my own day/week. So much better than people just scheduling crap

Folks, you’re not going to believe this, but

Kids today will never understand the sheer, breathless terror inspired in all of us by the Sesame Street I-Beam scene www.youtube.com/watch?v=49FB...

A season of low points hits another low point

Call a female referee a f***ing b***h; make the all-star game. What a weekend for Sengun

I am not going to lie to you: Sometimes, especially during weeks like this, I feel that it is "Ben versus The Impending Death of SaaS," and in those moments I feel completely overwhelmed. Not me asking ChatGPT (ironically!) whether I can keep my house if I have to declare bankruptcy someday

Just changed into shorts which is a completely normal thing to do in the northern hemisphere on February 6

In which Ben finally roots *against* a Donovan Mitchell-led team

I have to say I am somewhat impressed that Liverpool got badly outplayed until the Gordon goal and then completely turned the game around. Their least bland offensive effort in a PL game in a minute imo

This headline virtually guarantees a 2-2 draw with Newcastle on Saturday at Anfield

Lol. Lmao
