> Far better to let the company be punished for its failings, so it can (slowly, slowly) adjust, or be replaced by companies that operate better.

Well, if the company is replaced due to lack of heroes, doesn’t this mean that it actually needs heroes?

The industry as a whole might not need them, and it may be bad for individual heroes (though I think it’s more nuanced than that), but it seems to me like any particular company might need them.

Sarkar argues that “AI shaming arises from a class anxiety induced in middle class knowledge workers, and is a form of boundary work to maintain class solidarity and limit mobility into knowledge work.”

I think there is at least some truth to this.

Another possible cause of AI shaming is that reading AI writing feels like a waste of time. If the author didn’t bother to write it, why should I bother to read it and provide feedback?

I’d use a boilerplate like SaaS Pegasus.

Agree that this helps in some ways, but it also adds complexity. You can e.g. subscribe to a billing SaaS, but then you have to link your system to the billing system somehow

I saw an interesting idea floating around a while back: Put in a screen instead of the trackpad. I can see it being useful for drawing as well as picking emojis and so on, but it couldn’t be always available like the touch bar can.

Thanks for sharing.

Have you considered adding a “business app” category? Thinking of things like CRMs and learning management systems. Maybe Salesforce would be the holotype?

Considering/discussing is very different from actually making it happen.

Looks great! I entered a value for an item, and it was automatically denominated in USD. The amount I entered was in NOK. How can I change the currency? I checked the profile page, but I couldn’t find it there.
