I think about Maxwell's demon at least once a year. If Google allows valuable content and doesn't index low quality pages, it aims to reduce the disorder and randomness present in its system. EXCEPT that it now introduces disorder in AI answers. It's both a filter and a source of noise.

I'm exhausted from putting effort into messages when people just reply with an emoji. I wish I could “emoji their emoji” to signal that I'm done taking initiative, now it’s up to them to continue the conversation.

How I increased my visibility | Stéphanie Walter | 10 comments
People think there's a secret sauce behind increasing visibility, especially on social media, where some gurus sell you tips and tricks. This article resonates a lot, because, I’ve mostly, the same strategy (even though I don’t like to call this a strategy to be honest). Just like Kent Dodds, I’m curious, share what I like, share what I learn, try to demystify things, and share often. That's it. Happy to see I’m not the only one with such a mindset! Also, if I'm being really honest, I also do everything that experts tell you not to do: - I do edit my post within an hour when there's a typo / I need to tag someone (my tool won't let me schedule a tag). - I commit the cardinal crime of putting the link IN THE POST. - I refuse to use fake bold (it's an accessibility nightmare) or tones...

Met a lot of new people at a conference. One of them in the speaker WhatsApp group is super polite and kind. They wish folks good night, sweet dreams, etc.
ME: sends a link to a medical study on the impact of micro plastics in tea bags at midnight cause we both like tea.
Sigh. Goodnight I guess

🌶️🧠 Being "neurospicy" or "care about what others care about" Really enjoyed this talk by Myriam Jessier on unique traits of people with ADHD. Anyone can benefit from it as a way to build empathy and compassion for better relationships with people you care about and work with. 👀 My favourite two snippets: 1. You can't pick just the good parts; you get the full package only. (This mental model is a great fix for jealousy too.) 2. Creating a user manual or blueprint to share context with others on your working style can improve collaboration. Insights that resonated with me: 👉 Stress and anxiety may trigger hyper-focus, but it's an elusive state 👉 Lists don't work → overanalyzing expands 3 bullets to 30 without doing any 👉 Interrupt me, because I can keep talking 👉 Get to the point; I get bored easily, even by my own sentences 👉...

why are empty social displays so popular on LinkedIn? I'd like to share the cool shit I'm working on but what's the point when it gets drowned out? It's sad.

I'm not a fan of mirrored line charts 🤨🪞🤨 & that's putting it mildly. I understand why that choice is often made, so I implemented a toggle. 😁

Major milestone: AI-generated articles now officially outnumber human-written ones online. Search engines still favor uniquely human content. BUT, it's a new chapter leading us to think about how knowledge is produced and surfaced on the web.

A “costume” label in Google Trends filters for literal, entity-specific searches, while a “topic” aggregates all related global searches and synonyms under one concept. Categories are narrow and precise; topics are broad and algorithmically clustered.
