The Discord UX alone keeps me off it. Slack has the superior interface but with the Salesforce acquisition, I doubt it'll last for long. They've already snuffed out several communities' utility with their pricing plans.

I'd argue that AI insiders are also out of touch with the wider world and are missing opportunities to develop tools that'd be useful for everyone. For instance, hallucinations. They're a function of LLMs. But they're al

Oh I don't have a problem calling out Microsoft at all. But I'm not gonna internet-shame some poor UX designer who is trying to pay her bills in this clown world – just want to encourage her to push back when she can.

Glad to see Entrepreneur.com publishing something counter to the prevailing narrative amongst the business-news commentariat. (Also a really nice, clean website redesign.)

"If you don't return to work/vote for me/support this policy, the economy will tank" Very tired of the slippery slope fallacy being employed by the commentariat (like Bloomberg) in support of their masters.

I disagree with his point that HN is being reddit-ized especially given reddit's recent mishegoss. The overall comment quality around here is still quite high.

It's good to be skeptical, but my wife works in this field and I can tell you that there's a lot capital flowing to this area of research, and a substantive body of research that supports it.

WITI is a really cool newsletter BTW. I use this as an alternative to reddit/kottke/twitter in terms of fresh/interesting content, just because I'm sick and tired of all the nonsense on the other platforms.
