🗺️ A few places to visit
An exciting idea: “90% of My Skills Are Now Worth $0...but the other 10% are worth 1000x” explored along with examples of how ChatGPT would have written it. Great conversation in the comments, too; worth reading.
Leica launched their new compact camera, and Om Malik describes What’s wrong with Leica Q3. I haven’t tried the Q3 yet, but I am very familiar with the Q and the Q2, as well as the SL2-S and M11, and I can say I 100% agree with Om that changing the button layout is a profound design mistake.
