  • My first reblog on Micro.blog πŸ€” by @JohnPhilpin

    πŸ’¬ content = slop. END OF. But if you present me an essay, book, article, video, pithy comment, observation, slice of humour .. that broadens my mind, my thinking or entertains me .. I’m all over it. Cannot wait for the filters to arrive. To allow me to train my AI to throw content into the trash.

  • Hamilton opens up with Time Magazine. I was surprised how much I enjoyed the openness in this article and the devotion.

    I’m built different. I’ve been through a lot. I’ve had my own journey. You can’t compare me to another 40-year-old, past or present, Formula One driver in history. Because they are nothing like me. I’m hungry, driven, don’t have a wife and kids. I’m focused on one thing, and that’s winning. That’s my No. 1 priority.”

  • Interesting read it reminds me when I used to be on client sites at the start of my career. With a bit of practice you can tell when someone’s lying to you. Especially in a 121 coaching sessions. Those head movements can tell you a lot in my opinion

    Body language can differ between cultures, too. It can be considered impolite in many Asian countries to maintain eye contact while talking with someone, for example, while smiling can mean different things depending on the cultural context.

  • Visiting Prague

    Auto-generated description: A historic clock tower features an ornate astronomical clock surrounded by people and architectural details.

    What is amazing about the square and the clock tower, is how many people pull their phones out to take photos. I think i spent more time watching people, than the clock.

    Auto-generated description: A rooftop terrace offers a view of a cityscape with historic buildings, trees, and a cloudy sky.

    A rooftop view from a Starbucks. Yes you have got that right, one of 36 Starbucks in Prague. I did not want a home from home.

    Auto-generated description: A beautifully illuminated historic building with a large dome is set against a night sky. Auto-generated description: A person records a military procession at a historic building with a smartphone. I was pushed out the way, so had to use a random persons phone screen to get my view haha. Auto-generated description: A scenic view of a historic cityscape under a clear sky, with red-roofed buildings and a distant skyline. Auto-generated description: A vibrant graffiti mural filled with colorful tags, drawings, and peace symbols features a large portrait of a person wearing peace-sign glasses.

    I did not think the wall would be for me. However, I was impressed with the messages people left. Very inspiring.

    Auto-generated description: A cup of coffee with whipped cream or foam is served on a tray next to a bottle of water.

    The Lourve Cafe. A bit of Einstein tradition.

    Auto-generated description: A large, reflective, multi-layered sculpture resembling a human head is displayed in an urban setting, surrounded by people and buildings. Auto-generated description: A picturesque European cityscape features historic buildings along a river, with trees showing autumn colors. Auto-generated description: A narrow canal is flanked by colorful buildings under a partly cloudy sky, with a boat navigating the waterway.

    There really is a Little Venice.

    Auto-generated description: A serene river scene showcases a distant cityscape with historic architecture under a cloudy sky.

    Prior to boarding the boat and going along the river, I purchased a tea. The lady serving me, randomly waved a her arms, I did not know what was going on and tapped the contactless machine. How much can she really charge me for a tea bag and hot water. I paid and then saw a notification on my phone. She charged me Β£5 for the tea. At least the boat ride was better than the tea.

    Auto-generated description: A historic European square is bustling with people, featuring a prominent column, a church with twin towers, and surrounding classical architecture. Auto-generated description: A Gothic cathedral with ornate sculptures and a large rose window stands majestically against a backdrop of blue sky.

  • A beautiful and somewhat cold day out in Oxford

    A beautiful and somewhat cold day out in Oxford

    Black & white photo of stacks of bikes lined up and locked outside Oxford train station. Overlooked by the grey clouds within the sky and the fully leaved trees on the left, protecting some bikes from the weather of the past, present and future.

    Colourful boats amongst trees running along the the water  next to Magdalen College school. View is from a bridge above looking down and seeing a coffee shop conservatory in the distance.

    A lush view of Port Meadow in Oxford. Green trees overhang the canal and gardens to the right look clean and vibrant.

    A open view from inside of Pembroke College and the grass surroundings
