The typical failure mode of UX is no longer the shaggy-dog story (i.e., the turing tarpit: a lot of build-up for a disappointing conclusion); it’s bunch of shallow one-liners with no connecting thread, which are as funny as they can be for their length but don’t make the most of a set.

Pet peeve: on my work computer, 80% of my lobste.rs comments double-post because of some kind of missing deduplication logic. Then, I have to periodically go through all my threads to delete the duplicates. Sometimes one copy of the post will have 2 upvotes & the other 3.

Young women on tumblr tagging their selfies ‘cursed image’ is probably a thread with some deep & interesting sociological research on the end if somebody with a PhD tugs on it.

Bad idea of the day: As soon as a topic is identified to be trending, hide all conversation about it from anyone not already in the thread. Keep it hidden for 24 hours.
