Today, among the goods that are universally intended for everyone, we must also include new forms of property, such as patents, algorithms, digital platforms, technological infrastructure and data. In a context where the wealth of nations depends increasingly on knowledge and technology, when these goods remain concentrated in the hands of a few, without adequate forms of sharing and access, a new imbalance is created that contradicts the universal destination of goods. In turn, it widens the gap between the included and the excluded, between those who can participate in the digital revolution and those who remain on the margins. #MagnificaHumanitas

Galen says it right. Being at @Shopify feels like being in Florence during the Renaissance. Access to the inspiration, talent, tools and opportunity. We’re hiring across so many roles (myself personally for a product manager). Don’t stay in the dark ages.

A very clear-eyed analysis of where AI-mediated commerce actually stands right now, based on early Shopify data. The part that I would claim is most interesting is not the headline conversion numbers, although those are striking. It's the journey compression pattern. More than half of AI-referred sessions start directly on a product detail page, compared to 20% for organic search. Agents are essentially speedrunning the discovery and consideration phases inside conversations. shopify.com/enterprise/blog/…

“We are all afraid of death, and out of fear we turn away, preferring not to look. We cannot continue to be indifferent! And we cannot resign ourselves to evil! Saint Augustine teaches: “If you fear death, love the resurrection!” (Sermon 124, 4). Let us too love the resurrection, which reminds us that evil is not the last word, because it has been defeated by the Risen One.”

This is an insane value for creators. 1. Use the best #AI tools without subscriptions 2. Spend no time hunting for the tool best equipped for your task; they’re all there grouped by outcome 3. Build ontop of leading prompts "If you want more artists, lower the cost of paint” - @rousseaukazi

Starting this week, millions of @Shopify merchants can sell in ChatGPT, into the US. Their PDP, their checkout, their customizations, no extra setup. AI is a new front door to commerce. Shopify is what’s behind it everywhere.

100% agree with Mani. I really like the framing from @bcherny on @lennysan podcast: “Before Gutenberg, < 1% of Europe was literate. Scribes did all the reading and writing. In 50 years after the printing press, more material was printed than in the 1,000 years before. When a scribe was interviewed about the press, he was actually excited because it freed him from tedious copying, so he could focus on the art.” Scribes want to read and write. Engineers want to think and code. This is a moment where a 10x engineer can become a 100x. lennysnewsletter.com/p/head-…

Having our kids in @LedesmaAcademy is a special experience. Manu meets kids where they are and grows them personally, athletically and as #soccer players. Kids looking for a Spring team in #Cincinnati would find it difficult to find a better home. #USYS #AllForCincy #BPYSL

Excited to share that @Shopify Tax now captures and validates EU and UK VAT numbers right in checkout, so merchants can sell B2B across Europe with less friction and apply reverse charge from their first interaction with a buyer! changelog.shopify.com/posts/…
