If phrases like "viewport suffocation," "unacceptable interaction cost, " and talk about UX heuristics in the context of why the F we are all made to close four pop-ups and pop-unders before even getting to access a website* excites you: This article is for you!

@elena @emilymbender @cwebber @tante I've noticed this too. I am trying to provide a counterweight to all the AI/LLM boosterism on LinkedIn - weirdly enough, seems those posts aren't being put in front of a lot of eyeballs by the powers that be (ie. the algorithms). Odd, that! 🙃
