Hi everyone, I wrote a book.

I am a professor of Marketing and International Business at a school in Washington State, USA. I wrote a book about what happens to a young professional's business career when AI can do all of the early-career work faster (and potentially better) than you can. After the Grind isn't about whether AI will change work. It will. It's about the four kinds of human value that become more important, not less, when machines handle the routine stuff. If you're a student, an early-career professional, or an educator wondering what to actually teach right now, this book is for you.

I put together (with the help of OpenClaw) a website with essays and links to the Amazon page where the book can be purchased. If you are interested at all in the AI transition in the Business world, I think this book can help.

GM. Just some insanity coming.

X just broke.

What a week.

GM. I'd just like a great drummer.

GM. Do we need a Nostr Moltbook?

GM. I have had a relatively large and popular YT channel contact me about why they should cross-post on Nostr. They do really insightful business/political analysis, and are clearly Bitcoiners. I am preparing a response to their DM to me, but I thought I'd send this out here to make sure I don't miss anything.

Let me know what I should make sure to include.

GM. I wrote a book!

After the GRIND: Rethinking Your Business Career in the Age of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics
https://chance144.github.io/humanworkspectrum/ is is written first for late-stage business students and early-career professionals who can feel the traditional entry-level job tasks disappearing and are asking what will make them valuable in an AI-rich workplace. If you are preparing to enter the workforce—or are only a few years in—this book offers language, models, and direction for designing a professional identity built on judgment, connection, and meaning rather than task execution. Downloading the PDF is free, and there is an Ebook and Paperback version available on Amazon. If you download the PDF, there is a Lightning QR link to make a donation. All payments are converted to Bitcoin.

I really haven't talked about this much,, but I have been in bands since I was in college. My main band from 20 years ago is The Right Villanous John Hall https://music.apple.com/us/artist/the-right-villanous-john-hall/272396082 have a listen, and zap me if you like it. The first album, 1:33, is our first project using loops and fun ideas. the second album, Nice Way to Say Maybe, was my crucible where I dumped the first third of my life and then left it behind.

One of my favorite sounds is a 100 watt head warming up. They also smell great. Old amps have their own, distinct smell compared to younger ones. IYKYK.

I will pay for an original Toto IV LP in really good shape in sats, if you have one.
