#TheHerd 🐑 Use #AI Like a Fortune-Teller—and get in trouble.

👇 The savvy use #CommonSense, instead. Like Warren Buffett.

"Trillions of dollars are now at risk because global investors are making the same mistake that caused the dot-com bubble, Black Friday, and the 1929 Wall Street crash. The mistake is: To believe that numbers can predict the future."

Hermann Hesse on Solitude

Most men, the herd, have never tasted solitude. They leave father and mother, but only to crawl to a wife and quietly succumb to new warmth and new ties. They are never alone, they never commune with themselves. And when a solitary man crosses their path, they fear him and hate him like the plague; they fling stones at him and find no peace until they are far away from him. The air around him smells of stars, of cold stellar spaces; he lacks the soft warm fragrance of the home and hatchery.

A man must be indifferent to the possibility of falling, if he wants to taste of solitude and to face up to his own destiny. It is easier and sweeter to walk with a people, with a multitude — even through misery. It is easier and more comforting to devote oneself to the “tasks” of the day, the tasks meted out by the collectivity.

Solitude is not chosen, any more than destiny is chosen. Solitude comes to us if we have within us the magic stone that attracts destiny.

Blessed be he who has found his solitude, not the solitude pictured in painting or poetry, but his own, unique, predestined solitude. Blessed be he who knows how to suffer! Blessed be he who bears the magic stone in his heart. To him comes destiny, from him comes authentic action.

The Herd did a cover version of Redgum's I Was Only 19 the year after I was introduced to the original in English. It was for Triple J's Like a Version and is well worth a listen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yfuR5b-hBo

This one's a new one for me: The Herd covered Redgum's I Was Only 19. Wow. They say it's a cliche to say that a Hottest 100 gave you goosebumps, but this one did it for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yfuR5b-hBo

🚴‍♂️ Headed ‘out’ on the Herd’s “Bull Run” ride for an hour this evening, on Watopia’s Waistband route on Zwift. The Herd were the first club that I regularly rode with when I joined Zwift back in 2019.

Oh crap. Another reason to leave the Web UX.

Just glanced at the bottom right and saw #FollowFriday.

Do NOT click that Kris. Do NOT! #TheHerd needs to be fed and other things need to be done.
