Boomers were taught that identity comes from work. Retirement forces us to confront whether we built anything underneath that

After four decades of being "the electrician," retirement stripped away everything I thought I was—leaving me to discover whether I'd built any identity beyond my toolbelt.

Mercedes-Benz recalls some G-Wagon EVs due to risk of wheels falling off

Before you take your electric G-Wagon for its next off-roading excursion, you may want to stop by an authorized dealer. The German automaker issued a recall for every Mercedes-Benz G580 with EQ technology with the 2025 model year, as first spotted by InsideEVs. According to the recall on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's website, the current wheel bolts could "allow a wheel to loosen or detach from the vehicle,"... Read more

Why SpaceX Has an Uphill Battle Growing Starlink Mobile

SpaceX executives say its Starlink Mobile direct-to-cell service offered through mobile carriers will eventually reach hundreds of millions of customers around the globe, which would help justify SpaceX’s valuation. But right now, the service’s revenue is tiny. T-Mobile, for instance, SpaceX’s only mobile partner in the U.S., is offering its customers access to Starlink Mobile in exchange for paying SpaceX a total of around $100 million as it hits service...

Copilot Is 'For Entertainment Purposes Only,' According To Microsoft's ToS

An anonymous reader quotes a report from TechCrunch: AI skeptics aren't the only ones warning users not to unthinkingly trust models' outputs -- that's what the AI companies say themselves in their terms of service. Take Microsoft, which is currently focused on getting corporate customers to pay for Copilot. But it's also been getting dinged on social media over Copilot's terms of use, which appear to have been last updated... Read more

Как перестать использовать ИИ как чат-бота и начать автоматизировать рабочие процессы (Workflows)

Большинство людей используют ИИ неправильно. Они задают один вопрос, получают один ответ и копируют его в свой документ. Это уровень чат-бота. Настоящая сила ИИ-агентов (таких как Claude Cowork или ChatGPT Agent) раскрывается не в генерации текста, а в выполнении многошаговых рабочих процессов (workflows).В этой статье мы разберем, как передать агенту цепочки задач, которые обычно съедают часы вашего времени: от полного цикла онбординга нового клиента до подготовки писем по итогам двухчасовых...

Десятки «кораблей Тесея» уже готовы, еще тысячи на подходе! Новый спор вокруг применения ИИ в опенсорсе

Похожая дискуссия с начала марта развернулась и в ИТ-сообществе, и виноваты в этом, как в последнее время часто бывает, системы ИИ, способные за считаные минуты с нуля переписать открытый проект.Кейс библиотеки chardet вызвал споры о допустимости и этичности такого подхода, а также о роли лицензирования в новой реальности.

I’m 66 and the thing I learned too late isn’t that I should have traveled more or worked less — it’s that I spent forty years waiting for permission to want things

I know what I was supposed to say when I got to this age. Travel more. Work less. Spend more time with the people who matter. Worry less about what everyone thinks. These are the regrets people name in the interviews and the memoirs, the ones that turn into quotes on motivational images. I nodded ... Read more Read more

I’m 44 and the most honest thing I can say about this age is that I can see clearly in both directions for the first time — far enough back to know exactly what I traded and far enough forward to understand there is still time, but not the kind of time that allows for any more waiting

I turned forty-four this year. And the most honest thing I can tell you about this age is that I can finally see clearly in both directions. I can look back far enough to know exactly what I traded.

My father grew up in the 1960s and he’s the toughest man I know — not because he’s never been broken, but because I have never once seen him stay broken, and the speed with which he gets back up has always looked to me less like strength and more like a man who was simply never taught that staying down was an option

There’s a particular sound a man makes when he’s trying to hold it together in front of his kids. It’s not crying. It’s the absence of crying. A tightness in the throat that turns a normal sentence into something clipped and careful. I heard it exactly once from my father, on the day his own ... Read more Read more

I grew up with a mother who was physically there but emotionally unreachable — and the confusion that produced, the child’s inability to grieve a parent who is standing right in front of them, is the thing I have spent the most years in therapy trying to untangle and the thing I understood least for the longest

I need to say something upfront, because it will sound like a contradiction. My mother was a good person. She worked hard. She kept the house running. She made sure my sister and I were fed, clothed, and at school on time. She worked in retail for years, long hours on her feet, and she ... Read more Read more

Overthinkers often don’t realize it but psychology says the way they experience happiness is fundamentally different from most people – they can’t feel joy without immediately calculating how and when they’ll lose it

Most people, when something good happens, simply experience it. The promotion, the relationship going well, the day that unfolded better than expected. They feel the thing and move through it. Overthinkers do something different. For a significant portion of people whose minds default to repetitive, looping analysis, the arrival of something good doesn’t produce uncomplicated ...

A woman named Rachel sat across from me at a coffee shop on Amsterdam Avenue last winter, stirring her oat milk latte with a wooden stick she’d already splintered at both ends. She’d come to one of my coaching sessions because her partner had told her, plainly and without cruelty, that she wasn’t as empathetic ... Read more Read more

Introverts often don’t realize it but psychology says the way they experience loneliness is fundamentally different from most people – they rarely feel it from being alone, they feel it most in groups where the conversation never drops below surface level

Most people assume loneliness is straightforwardly about being alone too much. For introverts, the opposite is often the case. The problem isn’t the hours spent in quiet solitude, which tend to produce something closer to restoration than distress. The problem is the party, the work social, the gathering that fills a room with conversation that ... Read more Read more

The friends you made between 19 and 24 know a version of you that your current partner, your therapist, and your coworkers will never meet. And the grief isn’t about losing those friends. It’s about losing access to the person you were with them.

The friends you made between 19 and 24 weren't just close — they were witnesses to an unfinished version of you that no current relationship can access. The grief when those friendships fade is really about losing the last external record of who you were before you became strategic. Read more
