Deleted. I never spent much money with OpenAI, but it's the signal/vote that I have to give the system that more killing, working with DoW, and caving into the Trump administration is an unpopular choice

There are a lot of remakes of old games. Nintendo has done this a lot, but one challenge is these old games all come with IP and copyright, so it's hard to remake a game even with the technology. You have to have ownership and a good reason to believe people will buy a slightly updated game.

Sounds like your ego was hurt by a process that's designed to expose ideas from a group on a level playing field. The process was working as intended. If it upset you, it might be worth reflecting on what you can do to be more flexible and open minded, which is hard to do as we gain more experience in life.

Part of my role is designing assessments for online courses and technical certifications. This is exactly what we want to build in our assessment development process. We want the LLM to monitor the training content and create draft questions and exercises that are vetted by humans. It's maybe a classic "human in the middle" design for content development, but the more we can put humans in at the right point and time and use LLMs for the other parts helps us create a more robust and up to date training and assessment system.

Lots of news and articles, but also "The Craft", a history of Freemason's by John Dickie, was one of the more interesting books.

Skynet is exactly where I thought this was heading...

If this makes it easier and faster to sort garbage, we could probably improve the efficiency of recycling 100x. I know there are some places that do that already, but there are so many menial tasks that could be done by robots to improve the world.

I hope you shared this comment on the site.

Not saying you're doing this, but I feel we've turned into a critical culture and not a supportive culture more and more. Criticism is not as helpful as people pitching in to help build.

Definitely see the need for this!

Before downloading and installing, I'm curious how it works. How does it stop doom scrolling on Android?

Webstudio.io is another good one to look at

I would thing came would be a fantastic feature for the business/enterprise tiers

Also, maybe you need a free tier until you can capture some part of the market from WhatsApp

People are weird and sometimes things don't make sense from their existing framing. What if the URL was OnAir.com/555-555-5555 <~ basically make it look like a phone number and make it something where people can see they can text, call, or message. If you're live, it shows that. If you're not live, it gives you a way to leave a message. The interaction is almost exactly the same, but might create less friction of "what is this" by making it feel like how phones and contact points have worked for years.

I was struggling to cancel a service, thankfully the card on file was expiring. So, I just left it. Surprisingly the company found some way to bill a card I didn't give them and sent me product. I complained and the company refunded me the amount and I had no obligation to return the product because I didn't order it. Be careful what you recover or you might end up putting your service or reputation at risk.

My brother in law just passed from a massive stroke, he was 39. It wasn't a diet issue or life style problem. He had high blood pressure for years and come to find that the artery to his brain was constricted due to his physiology. It's unclear to me if this test would allow for insights to what my brother in law passed from, but the ability to develop diagnostics that could help determine root cause to catastrophic issues could change the world.

This and the work being done to create "digital doubles" that can inform clinical care is something that will change how we experience and receive medical care.

Reliability. Truckers aren't just drivers, they're mechanics and logistics strategists. The assignment is to get from point A to point B, but there a lot of decisions in between.

I'm hard pressed to remember a feature in Wave that does not exist in Docs now. What is it that you miss? I just remember it being dog slow with a lot of latency.

I had several 20% projects from 2012 to 2016, all of which were on the Cloud Business side (ie not engineering). It was very much a thing up until Larry Page stepped down as CEO

It's not true anymore and started going away during Larry Page's tenure.

TechCrunch runs on WordPress, so at least wp.com is a legit domain to have on this list.

Yes, Google backs up to tape. I've seen it done and helped design the training for the process. As of 2019 it was a robust backup process with a pain in the butt restore process. It can and will be done, but it's not fast or easy.

Some parts of Iowa are weird when it comes to vegetables. For a place that's 90% covered with crops, I've heard more people reject eating greens and other tuber plants (beets, carrots, etc.) The food banks are constantly asking for pasta and canned food donations.

Iowa soil and climate is amazing for growing stuff. Some years it's not necessary to water at all, the rain provides and the soil stays naturally moist much longer than other places. Most farms in Iowa have no irrigation at all. As my farmer friend with 750+ acres says, "God provides".

"If you think that talking to a compassionate human is a core part of the banking experience, there are many banks in Iowa who will sell that service to you. If you simply want to access your money on your phone and have that almost always work, Cash App will happily operate as a front end over Lincoln Savings Bank to make that happen."

As someone living in Iowa, I can confirm this is true and also less effective. I bank at Chase because a straight forward "no" or clear process is so much more efficient and effective than a "nice person trying to help". People in Iowa hate that truth, but waste so much time listening and passing people around to solve a problem that should be resolved with a clear answer.

Google and other companies that use Wikipedia pay a lot more than "people".

It's easy to pay for YouTube premium and remove ads. So why not do that?
