I get what they're talking about. I felt it then and on the rare occasion when I boot up Mario 64 I feel it again since the moment that big head of his appears. No other Mario game since has invoked that otherworldly feeling. https://x.com/KirbyCheatFurby/status/1940545441525010432?t=MOb23t49kc1R27ixQ-OYIw&s=19

This first episode is a good reminder of all the early ingredients that made Google, Google. The initial spark was the innovative PageRank ranking algorithm which made Google's results significantly better than everybody else's. To power that in a cost effective way, there was a lot of innovation in distributed systems and server design to be able to use cheap off the shelf components in a reliable and scalable way. All the way from hardware to filesystems to database design to parallel processing workflows to networking to front end server design. The whole industry still runs on tech descendants from those early Google innovations. That's only on the technical side. On the business side, they created the best business model the Internet has ever seen which helped keep the company alive after the dot com bubble burst and turned it into the giant it is today. But none of this mattered if they didn't get distribution. If users didn't search using Google. That's where "powered by Google" and the Internet Explorer Google toolbar came in. People might be surprised about how much Google pays Apple to be the default Search engine in Safari but they've been doing this since the early days by making sure the Google toolbar was installed in Internet Explorer (before Chrome) so it would become the defacto default search engine before Microsoft was able to enter the market. That's why Chrome exits. To control their own destiny, not depend on Microsoft and to keep people searching on Google instead of Microsoft's future search engine, Bing. Innovation in ranking. Innovation in data center design. Innovation in distributed systems design. Innovation in business model. Innovation in distribution.

The Odyssey teaser trailer is being taken down online. It's meant to be watched in theaters.

I'm going to watch the new Jurassic World movie this weekend but it's sad that the only actually good movie in the entire series is Jurassic Park which is a classic and impressive that it still holds up.

If you didn't make it to the theaters to watch Ballerina, I highly recommend checking it out on VOD. The action is as good as the mainline John Wick movies. https://x.com/ballerinamovie/status/1939784738014900492?t=ipjfHhO807x9Q_UlMEkR7g&s=19

Interesting that Cursor went with a PWA for their mobile ship. If the functionality is just a text area, status and push notifications then it makes sense to keep it simple as a PWA.

This year has been a good one for the box office. Netflix better give Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein a proper theatrical release. https://x.com/CultureCrave/status/1939471180718895209?t=_bvG-sRsvT6k8uceUH-MnQ&s=19

Exactly how I felt listening to Hans Zimmer's score during the F1 movie.

The feeling you get when you plug in your original launch PS3 after many years sitting in a box and it still works.

Don't forget, as great as Steve Jobs was, he also refused to release iTunes on Windows despite his executive team advising him to do so for a long time until he had to give in because the first three generations of iPods were failing to sell. Only when iTunes for Windows came out is when finally the iPod became a hit which paved the way to the iPhone.

Today I tried using Dia's "chat with tab" feature to create a text list out of the NYT top 100 movies of the last century. It failed to do so by just passing the tab as context. I found that very odd. I had to select the entire tab's content and pass it as context for it to work. It's literally the first real use I tried to get out of it and it didn't work. https://farcaster.xyz/gabrielayuso.eth/0x4ad75cd2
