Concerned about the direction US politics is headed in? Regardless of party affiliation, you are not alone. Threats to democracy affect us all. This isn’t about Dem v Rep, Right v Left. This is about power, and the threat to our rights as citizens.

Design has changed.
Figma's CEO on the future of design and AI - "A designer's judgment, taste, and agency will matter more than ever." This is especially true with the rise of vibe coding.
Important lessons from Dylan Field's convo at YC.
@mgonto I really like this series. It’s a visceral critique on many levels, and it a fun, tense mind-bender. E10 was a wild ride, and I can’t wait to see where this goes. I just hope they have a plan and that it doesn’t turn into “Lost” where they didn’t know how to end it.
@HeedTheCallPod@DanHanzus@MarcSessler @UnderdogFantasy Was it just me, or was there a lot of shade thrown during this episode? Maybe the fracture is still too top of mind and I’m just over analyzing.

As those working in tech, we owe it to educate people around us on the massive fraud potential for AI.
You should absolutely be distrustful of:

@Patriots Jerod is right. Seeing color allows us to understand what different people experience. It is only an ignorant, privileged person who refuses to recognize people and their circumstances.
“I do see color, because I believe if you don’t see color you can’t see racism.”
Jerod Mayo on being named the first black head coach in Patriots history.
My analysis of the OpenAI situation is out. Originally, it was behind a paywall, but many subscribers have asked to make it public. I did, for this one.

There are lots of things that feel off, and an important question looms:

PM Tip: When planning your deliverables with your engineering team, include functional demos with customer-facing quality. Use what you build in the way your customers are likely to use them. You’ll get better quality and business outcomes.
Classic distraction: Let’s argue about the *extent* of tragedies instead of focusing on what we should be doing to help resolve/prevent them. Magnitude in the extremes does matter, but we’re not debating extremes here. https://t.co/HKxtt3CDxJ
