In my company they legitimately try to convince us that our users love ads.
I conducted user research on one of our websites, which showed complaints about the amount of ad placements we have been throwing at them. The execs responded by telling me "but we are actually HELPING them, we're showing them products that will improve their productivity and processes". Then, they came up with ideas for new ways we can place MORE ads on top of the ones already there. I'm sure our users are loving it!
I use Deezer too. The only thing I miss is being able to bookmark my favorite radio stations. It's so weird that we don't have that yet!
Honestly, I'm surprised it took this long for Google to kill its main product over profits. This is in every big company's textbook.
Isn't that what people in extreme bubbles usually think?
I'm betting it's both. There's a lot of kids in this picture.
Lost. It's one of those shows with new details I catch every time I rewatch it.
Scrubs. Just a comfort show for when I don't have much time or before going to bed.
Jesus seems like a cool dude.
Found the Goron!
Sometimes I think we could get to a point where nothing new is created. Like, if everyone is just using prompts and profiting from other people's work without consent, and this is more lucrative than creating content yourself, what's the point in creating new things?
I don't know how to put this without sounding alarmist, but I fear we might be heading towards a halt in creativity. Trying to come up with something fresh will become less rewarding, so we'll be feeding from the same source material over and over again.
Sometimes it's just a dialog with a single "Ok" button, and they stare at me and ask "now what?". Like, you literally have only one option, what do you think?
I like JIRA, but you make a good point there. My company lets every team manage their project however they want. They go an extra mile to tailor and customize JIRA in whatever way each team "needs". But having over 100+ teams in my company has made projects a nightmare, I have to write very complex JQLs and filters just to get the results I need from all the projects I'm involved with. There's no pattern at all.
It still doesn't tell us what was changed in the system, just what are the terms to use it. If you're using your license agreement instead of release notes or changelog to communicate what's new, you're doing it wrong.
