The New York Times is on it.

> how does it help prototype anything?

Sketch, Figma, and XD all make it quick to do the most basic prototyping: click hot spot to go to a different screen. They are much more focused on visual design than prototyping.

The most interesting thing about looking back at Kurzweil's writing is the tech optimism we were all smoking back then.

I wouldn't say I recommend trying this, but it takes time to find people you are actually interested in on Twitter.

All the obvious "blue check-mark" people have zero insight at best. There is a whole weird world of small follower count people on there. Small communities. People with unique ideas. People that will actually respond to replies.

Again, I don't think it an addiction you should necessarily cultivate, but there is value to be had.

I genuinely enjoyed your story about your nephew, but it's bit like telling an anecdote about an incompetent engineer and then saying there isn't a large number of engineers that are good at solving problems.

What choice are you referring to?

I've spent a lot of time in big US cities and more rural parts of the country.

I had culture shock going to stores in the rural areas, because the friendly customer service attitude appeared to be much less fake. People didn't feel as rushed. They took a little extra time to have genuine communication. It drove me crazy, because I was accustomed to the efficiency of city retail, but I've come to appreciate it.

Dating more isn't the only way to gather information about what you don't (or do) want.

People that have dated few people might be more likely to share a similar approach to relationships.

My first Agile project was in 2007. It was fun and collaborative. We were all reading books/articles and experimenting together. It’s never been like that again. It worked kind of as intended on one project where we all had to be in the same room all day. Everyone seemed to be excited for it to end, though.

That doesn't mean that works for them. I hope the vast majority of purchases of Dove, Breyers, Klondike, Lipton, Vaseline, etc. can't be connected to social media impressions.

I would bet that marketing departments for companies like Unilever have a hard time showing ROI on Facebook advertising. Why not get some marketing attention for cutting your spend?
