Weighing in on the Meta fact-checking decision. "Once youā€™ve had a finger on the scale of ā€œtruth,ā€ any omission of fact-checking becomes a permission to lie. The misinformation is already out there and you canā€™t put that toothpaste back in the tube." open.substack.com/pub/techinā€¦

Sometimes I have trouble pinpointing what it is I like so much about design systems, but after spending the last hour arguing whether a selectable list item is a radio button I realized I'm a professional "are pop tarts ravioli?" guy

Even on an innovative UX design team, hosting a team morale event that arms us with sharp objects might just be our biggest bet that paid off

Literally just solved an NYT crossword from my living room while I can hear an artist I've never heard of warming up down the street
