Haven’t been on here in a while. See it continues to spiral into madness. “Engagement” by forced exposure to really bad people who are still being given a platform to spread hate and false information. Twitter is lost.

Just had a meeting with someone who has been at Microsoft over 30 years and just got paid off. That’s a long time.

I genuinely mean this. Download the Bing iOS app right now. This is the most remarkable tech product I’ve seen in years. You can just talk to it. Ask it questions. Ask it to explain concepts you don’t understand. Google search instantly feels outdated and useless.
