ChatGPT Health 7 months ago
There’s a lot of negativity here. I’ll just say I’m extremely glad I had ChatGPT when I was going through some health issues last year.

I see this in wikipedia:
"The attribution of the invention of the architecture to von Neumann is controversial, not least because Eckert and Mauchly had done a lot of the required design work and claim to have had the idea for stored programs long before discussing the ideas with von Neumann and Herman Goldstine[3]"
My favorite is Run Wild from Athletic Brewing Co.
Novice: "technical analysis is legit!"
Intermediate: "technical analysis is total BS!"
Pro: "technical analysis is legit."
Personally, I prefer Bishop (Pattern Recognition and Machine Learning) or Murphy (Probabilistic Machine Learning: An Introduction).
The version of the quote I've heard (and which sounds better to me) is this:
"Sometimes someone confesses a sin in order to take credit for it." -John von Neumann
As unions decline, inequality rises 4 years ago
see themselves as embarrassed millionaires
I see this "embarrassed millionaires" line a lot. It seems unbelievably cynical. Do you really think a meaningful fraction of workers are thinking "I'll oppose unions because even though I'm hurting workers, it'll be good for me when I'm rich"?
Maybe try audio. I really like the version narrated by David Horovich.
The book that did this for me:
The Elements of Computing Systems: Building a Modern Computer from First Principles (Nisan and Schocken)

No it doesn't. I listened to the audiobook and agree it has very good lessons. One of the big ones has to do with empathy. I wish I'd had a book like this when I was a kid.

One of my favorites:

(The Wisdom of Life and Counsels and Maxims)
Actually, what you're describing sounds like something you'd refer to as "not a showstopper". To me, a "showstopper" is something that stops the show: that can't be ignored or "fixed later".
