New manager? Admire how veteran leaders handle tough convos, and feel like you're not "fluent" in the same language🤔? You're not alone. Books and training teach rules, but don't train your brain. That's where practice comes in. Details in our latest blog: managerspring.com/blog/managemen…

I have 2 modest proposals: *Mobile operator* that charges calls/SMS outside my contacts a nominal fee and credits my account. No more robo. *Checking account* that requires 2FAC auth to initiate payments (1 time or recurring) why are bank accts less protected than my X acct.

What’s happening within Warner’s software team that the HBOMax ➡️ Max rebrand wasn’t just an app update?


I feel like the number of conversations has plummeted and my feed is mostly news outlet bots these days. Blue Sky? Mastodon? Where’d everyone go?


So @hbomax is becoming just "max"? Seems like an unforced error at a time when the service is just starting to recover from multiple poor rebrands and confusion between the app / cable channel / etc.


I’ll never understand why this wasn’t the product all along

We launched this first for Quest Pro last year, I'm really proud of the team for pulling off being able to bring this to Quest 2 users! Being able to quickly look up a game tip or message friend while playing VR is awesome.

As some of you have started to notice, we're rolling out a direct touch experiment with v50. It's a massive step forward in Hands usability in the Shell. It's powered by the Interaction SDK, so you can easily build the same interactions in your app. reddit.com/r/OculusQuest/…

Now I’m getting ads in my Twitter feed saying “The New Bing Is Here!” From what I can tell it’s just a few canned queries unless you’ve been accepted into the waitlist (press??). Soooooo weeeeeird. Wasteful.

I just tried Bing. Same old Bing. Further down the page there’s a “waitlist”. You need to install the Bing app and change a bunch of defaults to get “faster” access on the waitlist. OpenAI put ChatGPT right out for public use no strings. Unforced error from Microsoft.
