A company that doesn't get nearly enough recognition is Time Out Group. They started out as a travel guide book publishing company, saw the writing on the wall for print, and pivoted to markets in prime locations in major cities which manage to become tourist attractions in their own right. Whereas other media companies leaned into viral social media content which didn't work out bc they got rugpulled by FB (Buzzfeed, Vice), Time Out used a totally different approach. They set out to bring the magazine’s curated city “best of” lists to life under one roof. They focused on the editorially driven concept: the world’s first food market curated by an editorial team. Their first location of Lisbon was a massive success, becoming one of the city's most visited locations. They've since expanded to 11 locations globally, including NY (DUMBO), Chicago, and Boston, and have more launches in the pipeline.

If you want to have the best coffee you’ve ever had in your life while you’re in Japan, Glitch coffee should be on your shortlist. I had an ETH(iopian) geisha. It was really sweet and fruity to the point of tasting almost like a juice. What really makes this coffee special is the carbonic maceration processing of the beans. This is an experimental processing method inspired by winemaking. Carbon dioxide is pumped into the fermentation tanks with the coffee cherries, flushing out oxygen. Unlike traditional fermentation, where microorganisms on the outside of the cherries break down the sugars, in carbonic maceration, fermentation occurs from the inside out within the coffee cherry itself. The CO2 rich environment promotes intracellular breakdown of pectins and sugars. Because the cherries are sealed, the volatile aromatic compounds don’t escape resulting in more concentrated flavors. I’m visiting the Osaka cafe but they have 2 in Tokyo and one in Nagoya as well.

While I agree with the Farcaster strategic push for vertical video, I personally don't like filming vertically instead of horizontally, primarily because vertical video will not age well. It is a temporary format, a byproduct of computing on today's tall phone screens. The human field of vision is not vertically oriented, which makes presenting information this way fundamentally inefficient. In a post-smartphone age—when computing shifts to headsets, holograms, or other future interfaces—I can assure you that vertical video will be relegated to the dustbin alongside DVDs and VHS. Once the technology that necessitated it fades, the format itself will quickly follow. In fifteen years, vertical video will be an obsolete medium, nostalgically remembered by Millennials and Gen Z for all the social media brainrot they could zone out to.
