The Funniest Golf Story of My Life - a thread to brighten up your Tuesday. Technically, it’s a golf story. But really, it’s a story about chaos disguised as golf. A few years back we arrived early, painfully early, like 6:45 early, to play Serengeti Golf Course near OR Tambo.

Modern parenting: my dog gets free-range, grain-free, air-dried, veterinary-approved, probiotic-infused amino-balanced R400/mg meals. My kid gets chicken nuggets and vibes.

There's a horse loose in the hospital. And Ernie Els.

Saw so many folks from the pre-2010 internet era tonight. It both made me feel old, and reminded me of how amazing it was to come up in that time. Thanks @MarkSham @RichMulholland - what an epic night. @mikestopforth let’s bring it back 😉

I'm putting the finishing touches on 2025's first edition of Elegant Disruption, my newsletter, which hits inboxes on the last Thursday of each month. This month I'm talking about the (mis)adventure of opening a new jiu-jitsu gym in my neighbourhood...

10 years ago today, I published my big post on AI. It has aged quite well if I may say so myself. Of the many 2015 predictions I cited in the post about the rate of AI progress ahead, it seems that the most bullish are the ones who had it right.
