It's wild that a startup is following Neal Stephenson's #TerminationShock playbook, albeit seemingly very poorly, with little science to back their claims: technologyreview.com/2022/12/24/106…

Finally got around to reading Ken Kocienda's "Creative Selection...," And just read the bits about iPhone keyboard. There's no doubt he did ground breaking work, but is anyone else bothered that he doesn't mention Microsoft autocorrect or T9 as inspirations?

RIP DPReview. I spent many fruitful hours over the years poring over your camera reviews. Thanks for the thoughtful, independent advice!

Really looking forward to future updates to Figma that give UX designers AI superpowers. AI design tools won't displace designers--they will free up designers to focus on the big design questions, rather than the mechanics of execution. figma.com/blog/ai-the-ne…

Ever wonder why the MBAs dominating your corporate culture don't want you to present slide decks? Maybe they're afraid that you know how to use them. linkedin.com/posts/drewbam_…
