Video of this episode is up on YouTube:
Spoiler alert: I'm in the same country as I was for v37, but this time from a different nondescript business hotel. Also: I have good personal news! And, as usual, bad news news. I don't get to pick the headlines though, I just read them.
This episode comes with a homework assignment. First, watch Apple's keynote at 10 AM pacific on June 9th. Second, e-mail podcast@searls.co with all your takes. I'd love your help by informing me where my head should be at when I show up on the Changelog next week.
And now, fewer links than usual:
- The movie 父と僕の終わらない歌
- Fukushima
- The Great East Japan Earthquake and Nuclear Disaster Memorial Museum
- Utsunomiya
- Fukui
- I got spicy about LLM neophytes
- Aaron's puns, ranked
- Entry-level tech hiring is down 50%
- AI Role in College Brings Education Closer to a Crisis Point
- Veo 3 marks the beginning of the end times (watch this supercut)
- If you're having an affair, don't use Claude
- Apple's turning it up to 26
- My theory on what 2027's "all-glass" iPhone is really all about
- Nobody uses semicolons; they're pointless
