  My Japanese client has asked for my age for the 5th time in a row. What's the issue? I'm I too young for the legal profession? Does being old mean experience? I believe not. I know of 50 year old lawyers who dont a thing or 2 despite being in practice for ages. An aol kodu yawa

  @TreadOnThis_ @BillWiIdin @DiinamicMAGA Boomers absolutely had the technological equivalents. New cars every 2 years. AOL. A new gateway or Compaq Presario every time new RAM dropped. Big screens. DVDs. Home stereo. Waterbeds. Arguing otherwise is the most ridiculously stupid thing I've heard in my entire life

  @Capt_Fishpaste Agreed. Why fret about stuff that may never happen? I start looking up players' stats and profiles when I see a photo of them standing outside the AOL holding up a #Sunderland scarf. #SAFC

  Should we need to pay for email? In 2006, AOL and Yahoo announced priority delivery for senders willing to pay somewhere around a penny per message, with the promise that those messages would bypass the spam filter. The diagnosis behind it was correct. Email often breaks because sending is free, and when volume costs nothing, volume becomes the strategy (hello AI outbound!). Everything built afterward (filters, blocklists, sender reputation scores) is an attempt to patch a problem that is fundamentally about economics, and not about technology. Today, the same dynamic plays out on a much larger surface. AI agents can complete forms, take surveys, open accounts, and browse sites at a scale that would have been unimaginable for a spam operation twenty years ago, and most of that activity still registers in company dashboards as ordinary human demand. What I find most encouraging about Proof of Human is that this doesn't require the previous tradeoff. There's no toll, no puzzle, and nothing for a genuine visitor to notice or solve, because verification runs continuously in the background across the whole session rather than at a single checkpoint. When a decision does get made, there's a record behind it that a team can actually inspect, rather than an opaque score they're asked to trust. The email industry spent two decades learning that you can't tax your way to trust, and that authentication works better than obstruction. That lesson is worth carrying into whatever comes next.
