For my fellow UI/UX Tech geeks, AI impacts so many places. Google recently made a seemingly ordinary design change to one of its core icons. And to most normal people, that’s all it is. But it’s also a signal to pay attention to if you’re in the software field.

America's Ideological Blindspot
So caught up in the blue v. red rivalry, loyal fans defend even their shittiest players while scorning the objectively good ones from the opposing side. What if we're looking at it wrong?
