Clickbait title aside, this is an interesting listen.

Design lead for Claude: The classic design process is dead. Here's what's replacing it. Jenny Wen (@jennywen) leads design for Claude at @AnthropicAI, was previously director of design at @Figma, and a designer at @Dropbox, @Square, and @Shopify. In our in-depth conversation, we discuss: 🔸 Why the classic discovery → mock → iterate design process is becoming obsolete 🔸 What a day in the life of a designer at Anthropic looks like, including her AI tool stack 🔸 Whether AI will eventually surpass humans in taste and judgment 🔸 Why Jenny left a director role at Figma to return to IC work 🔸 The three archetypes Jenny is hiring for now This conversation changed how I think about the future of design.

What's worse than having your car stolen? No courtesy car from @AdmiralUK after 9 years of insurance (when you have two small children) and a 10 day wait for them to pass your straightforward claim to their valuation team. 🎉

This really is a fantastic piece of writing by @jonathanliew theguardian.com/football/art…

England under Gareth Southgate: rampant individualism and a saviour complex | Jonathan Liew

Manager has become used to the trappings of office and players are in a comfort zone. Where has the sense of fun gone?

"Because, ultimately, the defining characteristics of this team – and perhaps the closest thing English football has to a genuinely organic identity – are the same traits that define England as a country: rampant individualism and an incurable saviour complex."

Trying to stream @Discovery @eurosport through @AmazonUK Prime - one of the worst user experiences I have ever seen. Barely works. I miss the @gcntweet app

weeks of trying to get hold of a @figma rep or their accounts team so I can pay my team's annual sub. I thought (their already poor) customer service would improve after @Adobe bought them, but it's fallen off a cliff. Someone give them some competition and take my money. #figma

This is dynamite from Kaveh Solhekol on Sky Sports News. Absolutely nails it. He has the Tories and BBC on toast. Well done!! 👏 Take 2 mins and watch👇#garylineker #ImWithGary #MOTD #ToryFascists

The @Barclays app is a 101 in how not to do CRM for a financial services product. Sending weekly alarming "you have a notification in the app" push notifications...only for it to be some bullshit service message about some maintenance. Awful user experience.

Sunak asks a homeless man in a homeless shelter whether he "works in business", then proceeds to talk about the financial services industry. Utterly bizarre
