It’s hard for me to believe that UX designers at #Apple tested the new phone app screen out on real users. Who insisted on hiding voicemail under a hamburger menu and two taps? Is it that important to keep a search icon in the lower right hand portion of every app? 🤦🏻‍♂️

Brian Halligan Rob Go 1. Very serious geographic constraints. Horrible regulations and absurd processes that cause huge delays and increase holding costs for all types of construction. Absurd changes to affordable unit requirements that make construction unprofitable, especially when paired with

Hey #uber - not every ride needs to be 5-stars. There are amazing drivers that deserve 5-stars. Others might be 4-stars, but there’s no “issue”; they just aren’t fabulous. Don’t make me find an issue to give 4-stars.

Congress can end this tariff madness whenever it wants. I don’t think the current delegations of the tariff power to the president are legal—or being interpreted correctly. But, irrespective, they can be rescinded instantly by Congress. It could do it today.

I’m no authority but I would not doubt for a minute that the “law” IcE agents think they are enforcing is an extreme view that is rightfully challenged. I hope this woman pushes this all the way to the change we need.

This is the end result of #trump selfishness. You are only the biggest bully successfully until others decide to shut you out. There are so many downsides to Trump’s selfishness. How about the Yuan replacing the dollar as the reserve currency? Etc. axios.com/2026/01/20/dav…

The January 8-9 crackdown in Iran was "the deadliest two-day protest massacre in history, according to documents reviewed by Iran International's Editorial Board." iranintl.com/en/202601255198

Men brought guns inside the Michigan statehouse to protest pandemic lockdowns (but really to frighten and intimidate lawmakers) and no one shot them. They weren’t even arrested.

These people think we have the memories of goldfish. I remember MAGA losing its mind with anger when people said protests like this were incredibly dangerous. "Second Amendment!" they said. Yet these folks protested with their hands on (apparently) loaded rifles. That's far

Moltbots/Clawdbots now have their own social network (moltbook) and it's wild. This is the first time I'm a little scared... You need to watch this.

The core of these things were always useful; AI adds to, and Amos-up all of it, Great read for founders, CEOs (who should usually be involved in hiring / evaluating PMs), and PMs themselves. #productManagement

"Third, we must be prepared that if we oppose Christian Nationalism, especially from inside the church, we may, like Rev. Hill, be branded a Marxist or a Communist..." Read why from the conclusion: buff.ly/TaB683y

Heads are going to explode 💥 Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third. All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit. Immigrants: 📌Pay more in taxes and take

Is it just me, or does anybody else feel like the rounded corners & a few other bits of #macOS #Tahoe's UX release makes their computer feel like a child's toy? I mean, "No sharp corners! Safe for children!" Is this #WindowsME for #Mac?

More complaints from me. (I guess X is my "complaint box.") #apple does this big UX upgrade called "Glass" (pretty lame), and leaves the carets to expand sub-things in Mac email on the opposite side of the thing to expand in these two frequently-used areas. Sigh. #misspentTime

Western people these days are animated more by feelings than by values. But societies can’t run on feelings; values matter more. The west needs to go back to living like it. open.substack.com/pub/bariweiss/…
