One afternoon on my beautiful vacation in Hawaii I was in a hotel hot tub with a man on a speakerphone call the entire time and he started joking with the person on the other end about peeing in the hot tub so I started to get out and he was like “I’m sorry, I didn’t know you could hear me!” ??????

every time you use the tool, you’re training the tool. if enough people don’t adopt, it doesn’t improve. if it doesn’t improve, everyone bet mythical stacks of money on nothing.

At a panel on AI slop and got this email. This is the cost, making hundreds of thousands of people a day try to decide if they are talking to a real person or not.

Hi Damon,
I know you are likely not actively job searching, so l will keep this brief.
Your progression from digital newsroom leadership into product management, particularly building McClatchy's product organization and establishing its first Product Design and UX Research teams, stood out for a very specific reason.
1 am a Sr Executive Search Consultant working with leading organizations across media and technology, and I am currently conducting a search for a Director of Product at the New York Post.

This is infuriating. Can't stop thinking about it. For 35 yrs I've talked to experts, asked them for their time & expertise. IT IS WRONG to treat sources as Nicole was treated. Just shitty, one human to another, but also unethical and deceptive.

can I make a confession? i only learned recently that when people are doing the little thumb and forefinger gesture, it’s supposed to be a heart. I thought everyone was out there trying to do the money sign, or just this 🤌🏼

I think the "debate" about bringing iced coffee to job interviews is effective at distracting people from the really bad job market, the high unemployment rate for Black women, ongoing mass layoffs in tech and media, and how Gen Z workers are refusing to adopt many toxic aspects of corp work culture
