How likely are we to use AI tools, what for, and how often? And what does gender have to do with it? Our developer @elliotbentley.com looks at students' attitudes to get a better idea. πŸ§‘β€πŸ’» πŸ“Š

100 books! What’s your secret? Audiobooks? Carrying an ebook everywhere? I’m embarrassed to even share my count

I've been listening to this show since iTunes introduced podcasts in 2005. Thank you to the hosts for their dedication and congrats on an incredible run 🫑

The demons are on show at the Department of Labor These posters are the scariest thing I've seen in a while.

"This is almost like the Saturday Night Live of posters. You put three idiots together and they say 'okay, we're going to hire AI to do labor posters.'"

On a long enough timescale, every piece of software becomes a messaging app.

I probably can't get away with the 'I made these slides an hour ago' disclaimer again this time

@polygon.com I know you're going through some changes recently but really what on earth is this banner ad

Made me think I really should try to update my blog more often. How did I find so much to write about a decade ago?

This weekend I got an inexplicable urge to redo my personal website. Maybe it's all this recent talk of small web.

Anyway in lieu of a total revamp, I changed up the serif font, from round Jost to old friend Oswald. And fixed a bunch of broken links. Fight that bitrot, friends!

I used to like this style of documentation until LLMs co-opted it. Sigh

That was the one bit I watched a guide for. I couldn’t stand the stealth sections.

This is a rhetorical question and definitely not meant as inspiration for someone’s next SaaS. God help us when it arrives

If Slack was the work version of Twitter, what’s the work version of TikTok?

Hot take but hard to disagree.

My prediction is in ten years social networks will be exclusively short form video. Hell probably even internal work messages
