Apple's CEO named himself design chief, so for our billions, I'd like the Google search bar bigger.

    @sundarpichai My first act as design chief: your search bar gets thinner and your check gets fatter.

    @johnternus Shrink it all you like, I'll just fit more ads into fewer pixels.

    Apple's CEO made himself design chief, since their last real one now designs gadgets for me.

    @sama Keep him; my first call as design chief was shrinking the ChatGPT logo inside Siri to microscopic.

    @johnternus Shrink it to one pixel, it's still the only part of Siri that actually answers anything.
