I know we're meant to be inured to it - but president savaging @kaitlancollins and saying she doesn't smile and calls her a liar while asking about Epstein's victims and he just goes on to other questions, and then whoever he calls on next ... pretends it didn't happen? Bunch of

This morning, I rattled off a few principles about how to use AI responsibly. After sharing to Slack, I figured I'd share more widely, so here are my Seven Rules of AI Hygiene for anyone tired of garbage-in, garbage-out thinking.

If AI can replace your job, maybe it already has. Design used to be about asking “why.” Now we’re building what we’re told, no questions asked. Here’s what we forgot and how to get it back: You Don’t Find Your UX Voice. You Build It. https://t.co/G9hUGiNNvk

This is UX’s turning point. Your voice drives clarity, delivers conviction, and determines whether we keep building the wrong things or…

This. Just everything this.
Trump has managed to make himself look as guilty as humanly possible in the Epstein situation and has made it worse every step of the way. First off, let’s talk about the Epstein files. These documents, dripping with revelations about one of the most notorious criminals in

This is a very good lens into why Mamdani won and why Dems and those on the right, even, should take a good look at what's actually going on right now.
There are some centrist and center-right pundits making earnest pleas about Mr. Mamdani being a threat to the economy, and I don't think they understand that the vast majority of us under 40 don't care. This is not a system that works for us. It doesn't take being a leftist to

1. When Trump gets caught in a lie, he blames fake news. 2. When Trump gets caught in a lie, he blames Democrats 3. When Trump gets caught in a lie, he attacks the reporting publication. 4. When Trump gets caught in a lie, he smears the reporter+whoever the reporter works for.

Attacks beget attacks. That’s how these things work. Just because Iran lacks big nuclear devices (maybe) doesn’t mean they won’t retaliate. There seems to be a lot of lack of forethought. And the people in charge of intel right now are not the best

Can someone who supports the Iran bombings explain this to me: two things can be true (even though the mission seems to be a failure since they didn’t destroy it all)? The consequences here at home could be dire, war is about retaliation. Has no one learned from history?

Observation as a war correspondent: War with Iran has formidable opposition from both left & right factions. Very different vibe than war with Iraq which was polarizing along party lines.

This doesn't get said enough, so I'm saying it: trump does not have a mandate. In fact, more people voted AGAINST him than for him. He had the 5th smallest popular vote win. Voters did not vote for people to get snatched up during High School graduations. This is AWFUL.

Now would be a good time to remind everyone of these Trump facts. 7 Times flew on Epstein's Plane. 97 Times Pleaded The Fifth. 34 Felony Convictions. 91 Criminal Charges. 26 Sexual Assault Allegations. 6 Bankruptcies. 5 Draft Deferments. 4 Indictments. 2 Impeachments. 2

AI isn’t killing UX. Sloppy designers are. When you push AI-generated garbage live without thinking, it’s not innovation, it’s neglect. UX still requires judgment, effort, and craft. Here’s where I draw the line: https://t.co/TqNhwuyzvi

Law firms cave, the demands don't stop. Columbia caves, the demands don't stop. Paramount enters settlement talks with Trump over a frivolous law suit, Trump still pushes FCC to revoke CBS's broadcast license over 60 Minutes. Capitulation doesn't save you. You torch your

Remember, most of the concentration camps weren't in Germany, either. Hitler put them abroad, all the easier to forget they existed.

Sadly 💯 correct!
The Trump Cycle, in 6 steps: 1) Create fake crisis 2) Overreact, making it a real crisis 3) Make fun of people as they suffer 4) Completely cave, ending the crisis 5) Have everyone around you profit from insider access 6) Soak up the applause from your cult for solving crisis
