Is it really a diagnosis every single time? Are you saying pills will fix that? Unabashedly, no. Some people just get caught up in the wrong mentality and among peers who think a certain way. That analogy of "blindfolded, sitting on a

Experts should write best practices/hacks/best methods to improve the learning curve and discovery that others have to go through. I understand that doing so sometimes makes one obsolete vs the younger employees but its essential.

Usually long form content in specific fields is entertaining for me but when it comes to news articles, I'd much rather read summarized content with a only few exceptions.

I think the confusing user experience serves to engage younger audiences who gravitate to what is regarded by the older users as complicated. I believe this is Snapchat's unique approach vs all the other social media.
