These are not mounting, @cnn.com. They have been answered conclusively, again and again.

🤔 "If it's not tested it's just another opinion"?! I say, "If it's not tested it might be perfectly fine." Why not *everything* needs to be tested and, more generally, "some" research is often worse than no research at all 👇🏻 #research #userresearch #uxresearch open.substack.com/pub/todux/p/...

It makes complete sense to be able to access your Teams recording within Teams, the application where you made the recording. So naturally that's not where it is.

Mike Monteiro's "Ruined by Design" goes very well together with Moshe Y. Vardi's column "I Was Wrong about the Ethics Crisis," btw: cacm.acm.org/opinion/i-wa...

So, speaking from my European perspective, honestly, the perception is *truly* that Trump *really* isn't in charge. Shouldn't he know that? He strikes me as a person who'd be angry about that. Shouldn't somebody tell him? 🤔

In his inaugural speech, new Secretary of Energy Chris Wright invoked Germany as a cautionary tale. It will perhaps not surprise you to learn that he said a bunch of dumb, wrong shit.

So, one thing I've noticed lately: there are *a lot* of typos in books nowadays. Isn't there proper copy-editing anymore? Anyone else notice this? #booksky

If it leads to people shopping/spending less on waste factories like Shein/Temu, Trump has accidentally done one good thing.

🎮 Problem after having experienced Disco Elysium: the writing and character development of most other games will seem quite shallow now. #gaming #rpg #videogames

🎮 I'm done with Disco Elysium now and ... this is a text adventure. A text adventure with some graphics (really beautiful ones) & walking. And it's freakin' fantastic. It's a novel. It's a poem. The writing & voice acting are stellar. 🔋🔋🔋🔋🔋🔋🔋🔋🔋🔋 #games #videogames #rpg

The remote work debate was funny because it forced the question "Is a job something valuable you do or is it a place you go to be watched like daycare" and the answer for a lot of them was yeah it's the daycare thing now come on inside recess is over

Kinda funny how the U.S. Constitution says you have to be a natural-born citizen to become president and now it's somehow Elon Musk?!
