Being good isn't enough

Being good isn’t enough 06 Sep, 2025 Giving good career advice is hard. Maybe it’s because careers can look more alike than they really are. Two people can have the same title but what helps one could be rubbish for another. Or maybe it’s that “good advice” itself is fuzzy. It depends entirely on the person receiving it. For some people it means finding work they love. For others it’s about meaning. For many it’s just getting promoted. Still, here’s what I usually say. You have to be good at

Logitech MX Master 4 flagship mouse to offer haptic feedback – report

Earlier this year, we spotted signs of a Logitech MX Master 4 in the works, replacing the 3S, and we subsequently got a closer look at it. Now a new report says it will include haptic feedback … The Logitech MX Master 3 and 3S have long been a popular choice for power users, thanks to a combination of ergonomic design, pixel-level precision, customization options, gesture controls, and multi-device pairing. All that has made the device a go-to for many creatives and coders. A regulatory filing

With AI chatbots, Big Tech is moving fast and breaking people

Allan Brooks, a 47-year-old corporate recruiter, spent three weeks and 300 hours convinced he'd discovered mathematical formulas that could crack encryption and build levitation machines. According to a New York Times investigation, his million-word conversation history with an AI chatbot reveals a troubling pattern: More than 50 times, Brooks asked the bot to check if his false ideas were real. More than 50 times, it assured him they were. Brooks isn't alone. Futurism reported on a woman whose

Teaching the model: Designing LLM feedback loops that get smarter over time

Subscribe Now Large language models (LLMs) have dazzled with their ability to reason, generate and automate, but what separates a compelling demo from a lasting product isn’t just the model’s initial performance. It’s how well the system learns from real users. Feedback loops are the missing layer in most AI deployments. As LLMs are integrated into ever

Best Practices for Building Agentic AI Systems

I’ve been experimenting with adding AI agents to UserJot, our feedback, roadmap, and changelog platform. Not the simple “one prompt, one response” stuff. Real agent systems where multiple specialized agents communicate, delegate tasks, and somehow don’t crash into each other. The goal was to analyze customer feedback at scale. Find patterns across hundreds of posts. Auto-generate changelog entries. Things that were basically impossible to do manually. I spent weeks reverse engineering tools lik

The greenhouse gases we’re not accounting for

Researchers around the world set to work unraveling the mystery, reviewing readings from satellites, aircraft, and greenhouse-gas monitoring stations. They eventually spotted a clear pattern: Methane emissions had increased sharply across the tropics, where wetlands were growing wetter and warmer. That created the ideal conditions for microbes that thrive in anaerobic muck, which gobbled up more of the carbon-rich organic matter and spat out more methane as a by-product. (Reduced pollution from
