Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 09/10/2026YES, and... Is there any evidence an LLM has ever accelerated learning? I thought the data was pointing in the opposite direction. 100
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I feel like the hire and disregard has been a consistent pattern with all UX disciplines for years. The thing that's killing me right now is the stupid arms race mentality, all velocity and nothing else. 1111
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Glad they have a visionary leader who is blazing a new trail and not just saying the same thing as every other CEO that is currently burning their company to the ground 🙄🫠 000
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 13/09/2026I always start with "AI isn't the threat, AI companies are the threat" and then it inevitably spirals into an unhinged political rant 😂 000
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 06/09/2026My take is that it impacts the make-up of state legislatures that then impact voter access. You can't look at the presidential election in a vacuum. I didn't even call out the systemic racism in the financial and penal systems that further limit people's ability to vote. 110
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 06/09/2026Only true if you assume fair and equal voting rights and full participation, absent of gerrymandering, voter suppression, party politics, and constant manipulation of the media by the wealth class. 110

Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 06/08/2026I have similar patterns, I used the office more when I had it in a room with a window that had a nice garden view. Now the incentive is a combined office/gym so I can use creative block time to do some exercise 3 steps away. 010
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 04/08/2026I want a small form factor with 24pt font, basically a chyron for my daily life. 010
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 27/07/2026And put a QR code on the cover that links to the site to purchase. I bought the paperback of "Ruined by Design" just so I could keep it on the corner of my desk at Amazon for everyone to see. 010
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Same, but I don't think I made it to the 20m mark. Scrolling through the channels guide would be more interesting and emotionally satisfying. 020
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 21/07/2026I'm just shocked he admitted to knowing anything about the situation. 1431
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 11/07/2026I'd have gone with a neighborhood cat photo or cocktail recipe 🤷♂️ 040
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 03/07/2026Probably also shouldn't build a car and sell it as a plane, but hey, what do I know? 060
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 03/07/2026You could try, but you read them a few lines of poetry with a philosophical question or two and all guardrails disappear apparently. 150
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 29/06/2026Investing in AI is like hiring a beautiful bartender who can't make a drink and breaks all your glassware. finance.yahoo.com/technology/a...finance.yahoo.comFord rehires veteran engineers after AI quality control failsThe automaker hired 350 experienced specialists over three years to fix quality problems its automated systems couldn't solve 050
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 25/06/2026The Europeans that came over a few hundred years ago were really awful at assimilating. 010
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 24/06/2026They make such a big deal about illegal immigration, but humans are the only things on the planet that give these arbitrary imaginary lines the slightest regard. System thinking and media literacy need to be required courses in middle school. 010
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 22/06/2026This is just phase one. Phase two is showing you what you just bought at a competitor for 20% less. Likely to include a promo taking 15% off your first order if you can show the receipt, and free shipping if you sign up as a member. But of course, both stores are owned by the same parent corp. 100
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 14/06/2026And this is one more reason I lose more respect for NPR every damn day 100
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 14/06/2026I haven't done a deep dive on the subject, but the theory of greater access to more effective contraception and information driving more intentional family planning coupled with career opportunities and economic pressures leading to decisions to start families later seems more plausible. 110
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 11/06/2026He seems to say a lot of very sensible things, which unfortunately, seems to be a hard disqualification for being elected president in this country. 040
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 11/06/2026At this point I think he'd just be carrying a baseball bat around the office and roughing people up 050

Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 11/06/2026I'm convinced it comes down to social groups... gain power and you're rejected by your current peer group. Don't become evil? Rejected by your new peer group. 100
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 06/06/2026Thinking about how royal dynasties would have been affected if we had gone with a tradition like Nebuchadnezzar Jr. or Little Nebby 020

Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 29/05/2026They were never the law and order party. They've always supported class division allowing the wealthy to be above the law while enforcing punitive measures against the poor and minority groups. The only thing that's changed is now they say the quiet parts out loud. 110
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 28/05/2026I love that out of 5 seasons the Musk parody character was introduced and unceremoniously dispatched within a span of about 90 seconds. 1590
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 01/05/2026I think that's exactly the point, maybe dynasty was the wrong term. I do see it like a separate nation that works outside the bounds of the various nation states where different companies are incorporated (to varying degrees). You see it in the culture of the expat communities in the industry. 030
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 01/05/2026Oil is a dynasty, people have been raised in it, it's like its own nation. Tech is new and young and lacks confidence or established infrastructure. 140
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 29/04/2026My theory is "nostalgiac conservatism" is a mask. Fear is an incredibly strong motivator, especially fear of loss, but nobody wants to admit that. Loss of power from changing the status quo. It's the desire to burn down the ladder they climbed as a means of security. 000
Keith Ford @keithford.bsky.social · 29/04/2026The other day I heard it defined as "longing for a past that never was" and I thought that phrase is utter perfection. 121
