## [Why not talk about it here?](https://jardenberg.com/notes/why-not-talk-about-it-here)

AI translation · Swedish → English

I see lots of friends and colleagues sharing the choices they’ve made ahead of 13 September, but only in other channels? Why not here? Are people afraid of losing clients, does the algorithm punish them (and if that’s true, is that why I don’t see such posts…

## [Learning, at any hour.](https://jardenberg.com/notes/learning-at-any-hour)

Original in English

I refuse to accept the premise that AI making us more stupid is some kind of law of nature. Sure enough, you can be lazy and have AI just do stuff for you – but you can also lean in, engage, and have amazing conversations with it. Moments like this, I would…

AI translation · Swedish → English

Solar energy is fantastic. So please, Helsingborg Hospital, get your act together. Having this display sitting in the entrance, month after month, not working is embarrassing. Of course I know healthcare has bigger problems than this, but I also know that few…

I'm looking for MCP- and/or rfc/standardization -geeks. ... Verifiable MCP - a proposal. For the past months I've built and deployed a bunch of MCP solutions, and in case of them being open and public I've felt there is a lingering problem. Here's my first…

## [The flow of agency.](https://jardenberg.com/notes/the-flow-of-agency)

AI translation · Swedish passages

My team and I have been philosophising again. Perhaps we’re pushing it a little. But surely it’s a hypothesis worth developing? (And someone will of course object that this is what leadership has always been about, but in practice “management” in…

## [Don’t just read the book. Discuss it.](https://jardenberg.com/notes/don-t-just-read-the-book-discuss-it)

AI translation · Swedish → English

A little recording of my iPhone, when, on a free afternoon, I decide to add a direct connection between the book/site I released yesterday and ChatGPT. With just a handful of clicks, I can not only read the SSWC book, I can discuss it. And so can you. Link in…

## [The dreamers of Tjärö, sixteen years later.](https://jardenberg.com/notes/the-dreamers-of-tjaro)

AI translation · Swedish → English

Today marks 16 years since the SSWC book was released. I’ll come back to those 16 years, but above all I felt that, amid today’s hopelessness, there might be something valuable in being reminded of another time. “Drömmarna” in the title means both the…

## [You had one job.](https://jardenberg.com/notes/you-had-one-job)

AI translation · Swedish → English

When are we going to rebel against the lousy quality of services that “have one job”? For example: when a browser extension can easily use ChatGPT to read my appointment on 1177.se and create an event in my calendar, how much longer should 1177 get away with…
