if it seems like I get a lot done it's mainly because I don't have meetings

the average number of meetings at Obsidian is around 0.04 meetings per week this is why all our meetings are "destination meetings"

Jacob is correct here—we really do earnestly believe AI could kill all humans! I personally think it is >10% within the next decade. I believe Anthropic is trying its best, but we do not yet have a plan to solve alignment for superintelligence and are not clearly on track to.

graphic designers frothing the ufo file textures is such a perfectly depressing example of graphicdesignbrain: everything pure surface to be appropriated/recouperated, zero thoughts, most willingly psyopped. first palantir tasteslop now war dot gov slash ufo texture pack.

Yes, nothing needs even be good any more- being good is bad; when hopeless, cynical, dismal slop is weaponized into capital of maximum reach, that which requires thinking or feeling is friction; it abrades audiences. Making anything good now is a sacrifice. It should be respected

A principle is only useful if you can legitimately take the opposite side. Otherwise it's simply an aspiration that everyone else is also shooting for.

This has been said a thousand times before, but allow me to add my own voice: the era of humans writing code is over. Disturbing for those of us who identify as SWEs, but no less true. That's not to say SWEs don't have work to do, but writing syntax directly is not it.

Brand designers have become obsessed with making their own fonts. But how is custom type reshaping the culture of type design itself? For @type01_ + @itsnicethat, I wrote about why so many studios are downloading Glyphs and what it means for everyone else. itsnicethat.com/articles/eli…

Elizabeth Goodspeed on why design studios are making fonts

Custom type has become branding’s newest obsession, promising control, originality, and ownership – but its rapid rise is reshaping the culture and economy of type design itself.
