Meta employees have no scruples surrounding the privacy of internal communications because, by definition, they’re the sort of people who never saw any problem with Meta’s complete lack of regard for such things. So they don’t hesitate to leak what they don’t like. Zuck gets no loyalty because he hired an entire company of people with no convictions other than “winning” or whatever it really is that Meta sees as its central tenet.
Very excited for the return of the @sixnationsrugby tonight starting with my XV de France against Wales 🏉 🇫🇷🏴 #SixNations
🏀 We are so back!
Great night at the Paris Basketball game against Tony Parker’s ASVEL tonight!
100 agree with this take:
The whole tech world needs more projects that aren’t trying to become billion- (let alone trillion-) dollar ideas, but are happily shooting for success as million-dollar ideas (or less!).

PS: as an original Pebble backer on kickstarter, I’m very excited to see how this will go…
Between tough work days and other personal things… I’ve really been looking forward to tonight’s Champions League games (and going back to my Paris Basketball game tomorrow evening for another big Euroleague rivalry game)
🍿 🎥 “The Substance” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ …aka The Fountain of Youth
Also, as a side note: between Coralie Fargeat and Titane’s Julia Ducournau, the future of French filmmaking is bright, original, and female!

“The great majority of Americans are suspended between these opposing attitudes. They are uneasy with injustice but unwilling yet to pay a significant price to eradicate it.”
Man, Balatro is such a blast! Glad the ad-free version is available on Arcade 🕹️🤩
Who’s the Mac Miller/Kendrick of female rappers? Little Simz?
Anyone else with substance that doesn’t rap about Channel bags and cars?
🍿 🎥 Nosferatu: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
In the end it was all about love!
Per my usual habit of watching shows one season at a time after all episodes are available, I can finally join the happy viewers of The Penguin.
What a great production, storyline, cast and execution!

Biden is like the protagonist in a horror movie who defeats the villain but doesn’t finish him off, congratulates himself, and turns his back on his foe and starts walking off into the sunset. All the while, with the audience screaming, “Finish him off! He’s getting back up! Turn around! Oh god, I can’t watch…”
Been telling y’all to stay away from “zero” and “diet” soda. This shit does more harm than good:
Some of the artificial sweeteners in zero-calorie sodas (…) appear to shift the microbiome in ways that impair the body’s handling of sugar. (There has been) striking declines in microbial diversity. Some of our gut bacteria have disappeared altogether.
This man is my hero:
“The food here is different,” he said in a heavy French accent. “Bigger portions. Too much salt. Too much sugar.” He decided to enroll in a paid study at his wife’s new workplace. It was exploring why the American diet, compared with almost any other, causes people to gain weight and develop chronic diseases”
Silver Linings:
-
Got sick (flu season) the day before a business trip to HQ. Had to cancel the trip this morning with my French and German colleagues.
-
My French colleagues obviously still went. Flight got cancelled and they now have to wait from 10am to 8pm to be rebooked on a later flight.
So while I’m recoveringing at home, this is …for the better in my part
‘Tis the season 🤧
My first attended game of 2025 and we’re back to winning ways! @ACMomento @ParisBasketball #Basketball
🍿 🎥 🎦: The Count of Monte Cristo ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was the best French movie I’ve seen in years! Great story, great execution, delightful set designs & costumes!
