Is there a Unicode task force out there to somehow get the ✅ and ❌ emoji to match visually so that support charts aren't just complete madness?

Data showing the top 16% of remote workers outperform the top 5% in-office, while the bottom 12% underperform the bottom 5% in-office, makes sense.
Top performers thrive with extra time from no commute, but underperformers struggle without oversight. RTO penalizes top talent for others’ inability.

Reddit is testing blocking access to their mobile website to encourage users to download the app. I can’t believe they found a way to make their mobile web experience even more user hostile. 🤦🏾♂️

And actually, you can get away with beers & well drinks for a while if your spot has a great vibe than if you have a bad vibe but make fancy cocktails.
(The bird app is trying to do the latter right now btw with all the new feature rollouts)
I’ve used this a lot in political organizing as well

Not sure what to make of this one, but I found a new service in Spotify's latest iOS app:
Prompt_SpotBotImpl.SpotBotService
Does this suggest that, in addition to its AI DJ, Spotify might offer generative AI or a new bot?

after a few years of managing not to shoot themselves in the dick from a PR standpoint, it sure seems like microsoft has spent all of 2023 trying to make up for lost time.
Scoop: Microsoft’s CMO, who just cashed out $4.4 mil worth of stock, told employees angry about the lack of salary raises that their best way to increase their pay is to make the stock go higher.

Reminder - this isn't actually about TikTok and it's not going to just be Montana. This is the start of another massive effort to eliminate data privacy and will effect everyone regardless of which apps you use
HELENA, Mont. (AP) — Montana becomes first state to completely ban TikTok; law expected to become litmus test for rest of United States.
