Yeah this. Don’t overthink this. Say I want to use it to post my cat videos, I don’t necessarily need a demo of that to understand that I can do it. You have reviews and users. Just use a legit user for the demo with permission of course.

Yeah you just have to have someone share some content. People can extrapolate. Think about the apple vision pro demo. They showed pretty unexciting usecases like looking at photos, spreadsheets and watching a movie. All the things i can al

Personally, I think a PM that doesn't have training / skills to do product design work is a glorified note-taker. I don't necessarily mean the implementation skills of "making screens", but arguably that skill is t

how are designers making designs without talking to customers? Who are they designing it for then? Please don't come at me with "but... requirements", good design requires you to understand your user. People are bad at articu

To be fair good product designers do like 85% of PM's job. Design is not what it looks like, it's how it works.

I stopped reading when the author said the word "joy" can't be used as an adjective. What about "joyful" or "joyous"? And I know it's not exactly the same word but neither is "happy" and &qu

Fair. It’s valid to present options. The problem here is not that pro life orgs show up as ads in abortion searches. It is quite a bit shit that pro life organizations advertise themselves as abortion clinics. You can see it in the screensh

It would be all totally fine if the pro-life totally not abortion clinics didn’t masquerade as abortion clinics. There is no problem with presenting people with option, but there is a problem with misrepresenting what the options are. The s

Thankfully in year 2023 it’s not a problem anymore since everything can be vector. I’m talking about 2015-16 when you had to use raster images for components and figma was not even a thing. But thank you nonetheless. My current complaint ab

Gross. No. The difference there is no deception in suicide prevention. As you can see in the screenshots in the article, the anti-abortion clinics do pose as abortion clinics, instead of providing the person with facts. Google had to make a

Name me a piece of software that ain’t buggy, I’ll wait. I work on both windows and macos. I haven’t seen the screen of death on a mac in literal years, but the windows laptop does it weekly. I’m by no means saying that macos is perfect sof

I suppose what is the difference between trading in a laptop for an upgrade vs doing it yourself. The number of people willing and able to replace parts on their computers gotta be not that large. The upgradability comes with trade offs, in

I mean, yeah if you come to any os with an explanation that it works exactly the same as other os you are going to have a bad time. I use windows for CAD work and macos for everything else and the switching is annoying for sure. In terms of

The dongle era macbooks are trash. I give you that.

I promise i am not an apple fangirl. I am trying to be objective here. I’m not claiming that windows is somehow “unusable”. Obvs not. But I can’t think of any beef anyone can have with mac os except that some software doesn’t run on it. But

Who doesn’t like macos? Like it is objectively better than windows, and is able to actually work decently without set up pain (like linux) Who doesn’t like the hardware? Now that the butterfly keyboard and dongles are gone, what is there to

Wait how do you think hiring is done right now? What do you mean “dedicate a month to hiring”? Once you are senior enough at a company you end up having to interview multiple people a week, plus all the other meetings, scheduling a full day

I’m not a fan of communism, but your worldview about it is also misinformed. People are allowed to change careers under communism: source I was born in USSR, my mother had many careers in the 70s and 80s. I’d give you the inability to work

Are you assuming I include various things you have to do during the day that are not exactly social into hours you spend at work? No, these are just hours that you end up spending on such activities, every day, because that’s what you have

Cool. How does the current system solve this? Why can’t the IRS just tell me what they think I own by April 15th, and then i can add things to it. My taxes are really simple. I still don’t understand why I have to spend at least 40 minutes
