Turns out, if a social platform lets people pay for a premium profiles & promote their content over others... You get flooded by people who WANT to amplify extreme views and drown out the middle. interesting, agandaless posts also get swamped.
I'm @rogernort on that other app

i enjoyed this very nuanced perspective on a very practical, but still exciting, future of powerful AI could look like

The richest guy in the world (who runs 5+ companies and a political campaign) being top 20 globally in Diablo 4 says more about how it's pay-to-play than any brilliance on his part. #JustSaying

@Sixty60_Tweets love the app overhaul and general improvements, but how do you still not have shared shopping list functionality? And why are your accounts by user not household?
That behavior would help my wife and I in the CBD, but also allow parents to share grocery orders with their kids. I could review my mom’s order, add flowers and pay. An office can have a shared list that the admin person auths. So much potential…

@peopleinproduct now has a private and exclusive channel for product leaders and industry experts in PMgt.💃🎉
We’re focused on keeping the initial group small for obvious reasons.
If you’re a senior PM, product leader or you know someone, DM me for the link to fill the form!🙏
I can't help but think that the MKBDH app is the perfect example of the 💩 generated by AI code. Turns out you'll need professional software devs for a while still...
It's 💩 all the way down...

This final footnote is probably more important than the rest of PGs founder mode post. I'm surprised it didn't make it into the copy...

Gall's Law is one of those statements that just keeps hitting harder and more deeply the more time I spend with it. At first it seemed false, then a truism, then an interesting insight, and now a foundational belief about the world.

Is hiring in engineering sexist?
Do women who get offers for engineering roles get offered lower salaries due to their sex?
Thanks to the hiring platform Hired, we might know the answer!
