Evolutionary psychology is pseudoscience to affirm conservative beliefs. It's unfalsifiable conjecture

Slorp is now BONTO!

Just say unemployed or jobless. No need to get technical in the headline

Yes, it's new in the new Outlook

Getting cutesy with the OK button label

Got it, Take me there, Understood

"Have you tried our new layout?"
"Did you know you now can...?"
"We've hidden this from you, but don't worry! Click here to see them"
"News: We're launching a new product!"
"Looking for X? It is now here!"
"We upgraded you to the new view. Revert to the old view?"
"Enable integration with (our other product) for an enhanced experience"
"You may not have permission to view what used to be on this page"
"Take a tour"
"How are you liking the new settings screen?"
"You will be automatically moved to the new X, no need to do anything"

Even worse: "last week/month/year" lumps everything together when you start the next week/month/year

Rounded corners everywhere

Meeting requests tracking, oh my god. It's a great feature but it's got so many quirks.

Once you decline a meeting, it's gone for good in your calendar. If you accidentally declined, you need to ask for another invite. More commonly, plans changed and now you can't attend when you could have because you forgot all about it.

You can't decline important meetings and still see them in your calendar, so people abuse 'tentative' as 'I want to know when this meeting takes place but I won't attend myself'

Can't organize a meeting and then don't attend yourself. Impossible. Neither can you transfer ownership when you're going on holiday for example, so people are stuck with meeting requests nobody can change

Good luck getting a long series of meetings accepted by a meeting room. Every single instance must be available, that's annoying but makes sense. You can cancel or move individual instances until the meeting room accepts it, but everyone gets spammed with invites.

After you made all manual changes and the meeting room finally accepted it, if you make any changes to the series, everything is reset and the manual adjustments starts all over

If you have to move one or two specific instances to a different room, you can't! You can move in time or cancel an instance, but using the next available room is not possible. Both rooms will decline

The point is they should be fighting AI, not open the door even an inch to AI on their site. Like so many other endeavors, it only works because the contributors are human. Not corpos, not AI, not marketing. AI kills Wikipedia if they let that slip. Look at StackOverflow, look at Reddit, look at Google search, look at many corporate social media. Dead internet theory is all around us.

Wikipedia is trusted because it's all human. No other reason

🪦🪦🪦🪦

RIP Wikipedia, we will miss you
