Oh my god. Copy pasting messages from a convo in one Slack to another conversation in another Slack on iOS is a UX nightmare. …Copy text->swipe to home->swipe to slack list->2nd slack home->find convo->paste->swipe to home->swipe to slack list->1st slack home->find convo…

Hurray! #DaylightSavingTime

When your docs look like this, it might be time to rethink defaults and the user experience...

Anybody know a cinematographer who wants to work on an indie feature this weekend? I have a shoot scheduled and my cinematographer became unavailable and cancelled on short notice and I am scrambling to cover. It's low budget.

Seeing the good news about Kissinger is perhaps the only thing my father would really have missed being able to see from the last few years.

This is (not) fun. Looks like a security researcher using ChatGPT to construct the explanations for a vuln report… …and doesn’t have the additional insight/wherewithal to know it’s gibberish

"Instant ramen sales are up massively! It must be because we are so good at making instant ramen, and no other thing."

Someday my children will ask me why anyone ever took seriously the thought that systems like this had anything to do with AGI. I honestly have no idea how I will answer. Mass delusion? (Example emailed to me by a friend.)
