      Probably just lying to their boss. I have an AI obsessed boss and regularly lie about how much I use it because productivity is actually measured entirely by their perception of you and not by any real metric.

        I’ve tried explaining this to me peers that just quietly bust their asses while noisy jerks (including me, but to a lesser extent than most) get perceived as high performers because they engage with their bosses and work on things that have high visibility.

      Truth no longer matters to these clowns. Who cares about it’s true? Who cares that Spotify is already good… And the one thing they can do to is make it worse?

        Yeah, I wonder about this often: the product is finished; aside from curation, what else does it need?

          An A-B repeat feature. Member when media players had that? I member. Back in my day you could listen to the ooga booga section of Freak on a Leash 162 times in a row with just two clicks.
