Steve showed us that the future isn’t something you wait for—it’s something you build. His memory lives on in the hearts of innovators and dreamers everywhere—at Apple and beyond.

The Chicago Cubs put together a drone tour of Wrigley Field, and it’s guaranteed to be the most incredible thing you watch today 🤯

Horse Race Journalism. Prof Jay Rosen on how NOT to cover elections. Worth watching, folks.
2 1/2 minutes that sums up everything wrong with Australian political reporting
In 2010 American professor Jay Rosen came to Australia and nailed it with "horse race journalism".
His damning critique of Insiders, and Leigh Sales' defensive reaction, is worth it alone

In 2020, Norway held a design competition to redesign their passports.
The winning design is literally so gorgeous. The landscape even changes from day to night under UV.

Controversial opinion at big tech co’s:
Product Designers should design the product.
Their job ain’t just for decoration. And PMs aren’t designers

SAFe: Reimagining bureaucracy as a pretty diagram with pretty icons to hide the fact it's a bloated bureaucracy

. @ScottMorrisonMP hates #transparency. I launch a public interest legal case to unblock the huge backlog of @OAICgov #FOI reviews. The Govt responds with a lawyer's letter threatening $150k in costs. I may need a little help here, but I'm going to fight this all the way. #auspol

What exactly do you say to an above median earning couple in their mid-30's who can't afford to buy a house?
Sorry your taxes had to go toward the capital gains tax discount of the investor who outbid you?
Sorry rates had to be this low, we got ourselves in shedloads of debt?
Missed tonight’s episode of #4Corners investigating Australia’s property price frenzy?

Do yourself a favour and watch this. Dr Mike Freelander MP has just given an incredible speech in Parliament condemning the extreme right politicians undermining the work of our doctors and nurses on the front line of this COVID crisis in Sydney👇👇

Educated voters have shifted their political leaning from right to left. Rich ones remain conservative

Today’s example of “tech decisions are UX decisions”: The timing of back end account creation matters! NY taxi app asks for email & mobile number, then says my (real) email is invalid. I try a different email. It says sorry, phone number is already registered. Dead end.

FFS how many times do we have to talk about this? Even supposed Lean and Agile practitioners keep calling people "resources". There is absolutely NO excuse for it. It's really not hard to write or say "people" instead of "resources". I mean, honestly.

re: Crappy Enterprise Software.
Some mentioned that SaaS is making this better.
My original comment was after working with two Enterprise SaaS firms. There's something *inherent* in the business of Enterprise Software that encourages crap.

This is phenomenal advice for all managers.
Your job is not to tell people what to do, or ask them for status updates. It's to create and maintain space where the very smart people you hired can do the thing they were hired to do and make the stuff people care about.
