death of another gateway drug to digital creativity
FYI this led to me watching the movie last night
sounds bad! hope all is ok
The project, internally named Cosmos (but different from the company’s existing Cosmos deep learning product)
these people are a creativity vacuum
the keymasters

It took airbnb over a year(!) to show all the fees up front on the search results page instead of waiting to show them on the checkout page. That’s over a year after their asshat CEO announced on twitter that they would be doing it (to quell the social media uproar about how deceptive it was)
