One of the strongest factors in building and motivating an organization as a leader is saying out loud regularly that you care about people.
As Alicja frames, it's the difference between knowing what ice cream tastes like and actually eating ice cream.
It is so SO meaningful to tell people that you care about them, that you value their expertise and work, that they deserve to be respected and supported, and so on. Customize it to the individual situation: identify what someo…

An absolutely smashing analogy drawn for me by @oddtail@meow.social, on the question of "how often should I tell my friends I care for them?" In the context of people with RSD, who seem to make up the majority of my best and most important friends. It said: "It's like... I know what ice cream tastes like. But that knowledge is not a substitute for eating ice cream. "That, with my RSD, is like the difference between knowing someone cares and being told they do. Does that make sense?" I think…

I continue to be impressed with how the LLM systems are pretty open about queerness and non-judgmental, non-homophobic. Remarkable given that so much of the training material must be hateful! Here's Gemini being cautious but helpful after I asked it about a summary of what it knows about me and asked why it didn't mention me being gay.
I do have access to information regarding your personal life and sexual orientation from our previous conversations. However, I am designed with specific safety and privacy guardrails that prevent me from storing or outputting information related to a user's sexual orientation or sensitive medical conditions in these types of summaries.
While I can remember and use those details to provide context during our active discussions—such as when we were looking into the history of queer voices or specific support resources—I cannot include them in a "permanent" distilled profile like the one above.

Good Morning #Canada
I don't post much about #Hockey as I've fallen out of love for the game in recent years. But in my youth, I was a goalie, and one of my early sports heroes was Glenn Hall. On this day in 1962, Hall set a record that will never be broken when he played in his 502nd consecutive NHL regular-season game and 552 straight, including the Stanley Cup Playoffs. This was an era when goalies didn't wear masks or helmets and were routinely stitched up after being cut so they could return to the net. I didn't become a fan until after his streak ended, but his dominance over the next few years made an impression on me and my style of goaltending. He was the pioneer of the butterfly style, which at the time enraged NHL coaches and confounded scorers. His goaltending for St. Louis in the Stanley Cup series of 1968 was some of the best I've ever seen.
