A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I know this isn't part of the federated toolset that most in these parts prefer, but I have to use Slack for work. Thought this was interesting.

Slacks problem isn't with generating things to say, it's with managing attention spans and navigating between conversations easily. If the integration can help with that, maybe it will make sense. But if it just helps people write, that is nice but I'd be concerned that it would lead to longer and less direct messaging.

Edit: Read further in. Maybe it will cut down on the number of messages people need to send for things that exist in slack but that no one bothers to read. In that way, it could be pretty useful. I'm assuming Microsoft Teams has something similar already?
