Would love to hear more to-the-point thoughts on the ideas described in the post. the common thought of 'we should keep doing what we’ve been doing for decades simply because it feels safer' may not be the best fit anymore. Do you also see the advantages of the approach described in the post?

Many websites lost their favicons in Google search results recently. For new websites, it takes weeks or months to get their favicon to show up in results. Google?

In the link - chatgpt.com with a broken favicon in google search results, just as an example.

I think this sentence in the article (and quote from Jeff) says it all: "PowerPoint is really designed to persuade. It's kind of a sales tool". And by Powerpoint, Jeff I believe refers to the concept of slides, and not the tool itself.

I think Jeff Bezos is not blaming the tool, but rather the concept of Powerpoint/slides and how people usually communicate when they are using that tool. As an example, Powerpoint is really a tool for selling, and internally in the company the last thing you want is to sell, as you want to hear opinions, open a discussion, encourage questions, and wonder your way as a team to a solution.

That would be correct if technology doesn't advance and change constantly, which is not the case. New frameworks, new technology, new versions for programming languages are constantly on the rise, so I would expect that will be a good reasons to ask more new questions on SO, but that's not the case anymore.

This is just my personal opinion, happy to hear your thoughts and discuss this important topic.
