the good news is that they don’t play today.

the bad news is that someone will inevitably be hurt tomorrow. it’s just a matter of how badly.

if anyone figures this out, let me know.

this seems like the sports equivalent of the “if your brain won’t stop coming up with things you need to do just as you’re trying to sleep, just tell it to stop” advice.

excellent news for our The Monktoberfest alums and cider fans generally: Ryan and our friends at the Absolem Cider Co can now ship to 41 states.

go forth and enjoy a cider that's not like anything you've had.

trying to play with privateGPT but it turns out my xcode is out of date so check back with me in six months or so

wait, what?

You should subscribe to the all new RedMonk monthly update. Also very flattered to find myself included in this iteration, once a redmonk always a redmonk :) /cc Donnie Berkholz, Ph.D. Coté

the RedMonk analyst team is going to be in SF week of June 3rd for a bunch of consulting. If you're a client, now is a great time to book a chunk of advisory with us while we're there. if you're not a client, maybe now is the time to sign up, and get some face time with us.

the 1984 ad was exactly where my brain went.

quite the contrast.

taught my daughter exactly this. “if you need help from a stranger, make it a stranger that you pick, not one who picks you.”

i also told her to try to find a woman rather than a man, if possible.

i haven’t seen one of these in thirty years, and one sip took me back thirty years.

one sip was enough, however.

big thanks to everyone who came out for RedMonk beers last night. the bartender loved you all, and when i signed for the check told me you are all welcome back anytime.

p.s. also need to thank Rachel Stephens for the inspired venue selection. perfect RedMonk beers spot.

we’re here now, and can confirm that the taplist is excellent.

bring your IDs though.

credit to red hat: their AI vision this morning was not AI for the sake of AI, but based on a clear Job to Be Done.

we’ll see about the execution, and i have a ton of questions, but the message at least was solid.

when did putting calls on speakerphone in public become a thing?

it’s really not the best.

i should probably add that the good people of denver and those attending the red hat summit are not mutually exclusive groups

to the good people of denver and those attending the red hat summit, we’ve got a venue for RedMonk beers: finn’s manor, tomorrow night at 8 PM.

come on over, the monks would love to buy you a beer and say hi.

Today is my first day at the Verge!

I <3 scoops so if you work in AI, send tips via Signal to @ kylie.01 or DM me here—and if you live in SF, let’s grab coffee ☕️

it helps a lot if you find both food and clothing fundamentally uninteresting

sorry, denver. my bad.
