Believe it or not, I've got one thing to thank AI slop for. It keeps me from over-consuming content, good or bad. It might end up preventing me from consuming any kind of content at all, and that might be the best thing that has happened to me in a good while.
This week, we bring you Jennifer Woodard on our Road to CTO series, on the MarsBased podcast. She went from having no technical background to being the co-founder of an AI company she sold later to Logically, where she serves now as CTPO.
I see AI slop everywhere. Even in the food stands of metal festivals.
Esta semana, en el podcast de MarsBased, volvemos a la carga con Alberto Betella para celebrar los 20 años de su proyecto personal, Podcast Generator, la genesis de RSS.com - su empresa actual.
Esta semana, en Road to CTO, os traemos a Susana Duran, quien fuera CTO en Spamina y Zyncro, entre muchos otros puestos directivos.
@pokemon-cat.bsky.social si mai voleu obrir el meló de fer versions regionals catalanes de pokémon, aviseu-me. Us puc compartir algun avanç del meu projecte. Per ex, el Guifré el Piloswine.

Is youtube blocking AI tools from fetching videos and giving them the rickroll video instead? I just got this and I think it's an epic trolling level.
A repost of a content on linkedin dunking on Glovo, 6h ago, with a single word and an emoji, got me thousands of views, and dozens of interactions. My other content sharing insights as a founder, investor or developer usually yields a fraction of that. They want us divided.
De camino al Talent Arena para moderar esta sesión con los cracks de Marc Oliveras Xiol, Ricard Clau, Xavier Tous Guri and Pau Minoves de 20000 pífias (y algunos aciertos) de liderazgo tecnológico. ¡No faltéis!
Yeah, we will miss it as well. We're focused on bringing MarsBased to the next level and 2026 is a transformational year. We might be back next year with events, though!
Hey, in case you missed it, no one is posting this image on linkedin, so make sure you post your take on it today because we're all ignorants who need to be told how things work
⚠️ New outbound pattern worth knowing about: fake “forwarded” cold emails. They are designed to look like a warm intro. In many cases, the forward is entirely fabricated.
