Since we’re talking music, go listen to Gorillaz’s new masterpiece, ”The Mountain”, you’ve been missing out if you hadn’t until now!

Genuinely their second best, after Demon Days and ahead of Plastic Beach. This one completes the trilogy beautifully and I can’t wait to get my hands on that collectible yellow Vinyl!

Three people in colorful clothing stand triumphantly on a mountain peak with a dramatic cloud-filled sky, and the word ΰ€ͺΰ€°ΰ₯ΰ€΅ΰ€€ appears above them, the artwork for gorillaz’s new album β€˜The Mountain’

As anticipated, Tom Misch’s new album ”Full Circle” is absolutely excellent!

Seven years in Paris

Seven years ago this month, my wife and I had just moved to Paris as a pair of newlyweds β€” I’d found a job. Today I had an errand to run on the same street where that first Parisian office used to be.

We spent about a year and a half there. Enough time to build routines β€” the restaurant next door for lunch, the bar around the corner for after-work drinks with colleagues.

Going back felt strange in a good way. The street has changed β€” new lunch spots, new offices β€” but the vibe is the same. It just keeps renewing itself every few years.

What hit me more was thinking about the distance we’ve covered. From fresh-off-the-boat Parisians to actually feeling at home here. My wife and I, and now us as a family.

Same street. Different people walking it.

Happy #MLBOpeningDay folks! Go O’s!

Let’s keep his β€œGood, I’m glad he’s dead” post bookmarked(…) after he chokes on a hamburger or whatever it’ll be that finally does him in — and the good people of the world rejoice and celebrate.

Fascinating: the new mayor of Paris would like to build another Startup Campus focused on AI, in a different neighborhood, close to where I live, in addition to the existing Station F
