Marriage, home, children: life's milestones became the ultimate luxury portfolio.

In 1397, Giovanni de' Medici opened a small bank near Florence's Ponte Vecchio. Where others seized property on default, he offered flexible terms and political discretion. 'We're here to help Florence prosper.'

Need materials for your workshop? The Medici provides. Short on rent? They'll cover it. Within a decade, half of Florence owed them money.

One thing that's like fingers on a chalkboard for me is the tired, historically inaccurate, generic AI-brained argument that "people were against the Internet, too."

The Internet was built for a lot of reasons, some of them political—ARPANET was never politically neutral (so if you're making this argument, please at least Google "Internet Cold War"). It was also one of a number of networking protocols that could have caught on.

LinkedIn changed how they code their landing page and I needed to adjust my uBlock Origin rules to hide the cluttered up "news" (really, ads) feed they put down the side of the page. If like me you want an uncluttered experience and use uBlock Origin, here's a rule that hides that feed:

This post is not an invitation to scold me for using LinkedIn or Microsoft products, nor to suggest I leave it or find alternatives.

I got on LinkedIn because someone told me it was the “professional thing to do” after retirement.

Big mistake.

This place is a digital motor pool full of self-appointed visionaries doing donuts in the mud, yelling about scaling, optimizing, and disrupting, while actively failing to comprehend anything larger than their own reflection in a ring light.

Mashable: LinkedIn removes explicit protections for transgender users. “LinkedIn has joined the throng of social media platforms and companies silently removing protections for LGBTQ users, amid an increasingly dangerous time for transgender communities across the country. The networking site removed a line from its hateful conduct policy that explicitly prohibited the misgendering and […]

I know I am repeating myself but: Fuck #LinkedIn

> Similarly, the platform removed “race or gender identity” from its examples of inherent traits for which negative comments are considered harassment. That qualification of harassment is now kept only for behaviour that is actively “disparaging another member’s […] perceived gender”, not mentioning race or gender identity anymore.

Want to see a carousel about the carousel??

www.linkedin.comTwo days ago I posted my blogpost on making LinkedIn carousels using Gemini and R. | Athanasia Monika MowinckelTwo days ago I posted my blogpost on making LinkedIn carousels using Gemini and R. And here is a carousel, about making a carousel! :) In this carousel, I walk through how I used R and Google's Gemini API to turn a blog post into a ready-to-post carousel. Here’s a sneak peek at what you'll find inside: - Connecting R to Gemini: I show how to use the httr2 package to talk to the Gemini API and how to use httr2::curl_translate() to convert cURL commands to R code. - Gemini File Upload: Discover a custom R function that handles the multi-step process of uploading a markdown file to the Gemini API. - The Perfect Prompt: Learn how to craft a detailed prompt that instructs Gemini to generate a JSON output with titles, descriptions, and even code examples tailored for a carousel. - From JSON to Quarto: See how I take the structured JSON response and use a custom function to automatically generate a Quarto document, creating a clean format for review. While posting to LinkedIn still requires a manual upload for now, this automated workflow gives you a powerful head start on your content creation. Check out the full carousel to see the code and the final Quarto output example, and the blogpost for all the code!
