Shifting is faster and more precise, with no need for readjustments. It also eliminates a lot of cabling, which makes it look cleaner and simplifies the setup.

steering an agent via a test suite is an extremely powerful reinforcement mechanism

can you elaborate a bit? how do you proceed? what does your process look like?

I know about Wirecard and the Marsalek story, but not about this:

Wirecard [...] Funding people smuggling into Europe

Can you elaborate?

I find it interesting how the Russian news agency TASS quotes the presidential aide of Russia:

"The election campaign is over," Patrushev noted. "To achieve success in the election, Donald Trump relied on certain forces to which he has corresponding obligations. As a responsible person, he will be obliged to fulfill them."

cool idea. i would also like a promo code to try out. apple watch version would be great!

it's the same everywhere, not just with jobs and careers. contracts for (mobile) internet are always much cheaper for new customers than for old customers. or old customers don't automatically get the better conditions of new customers. and that although old customers are even more valuable, because they have already earned their acquisition costs.

Ironic that a long time ago there already was a car from the east called Seagull https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GAZ_Chaika

Just tried, it is not available in the German App Store

google has worked hard to earn this reputation. i don't want to rely on any part of the google ecosystem anymore.

Is there something like this for epubs or pdfs with a truly high-quality TTS?

All apps that I know of use iOS internal TTS (sounds awful, not as good as Siri). Then is also Voice Dream Reader and even with the paid premium voices it is still not pleasant to listen to. Siri-grade TTS or Elevenlabs would be pleasant enough, though.

A quite recent UX disaster at Paypal.

The Paypal iOS app used to behave strange with numbers. The interface was designed that you had to type in the amount you wanted to send in cents. If you wanted to send USD 50, you had to type 5000. Paypal then would add a comma after the second digit from the right. What made it even stranger: The numbers were aligned right, so it had the feeling of typing backwards. I never really got used to it.

A few weeks ago, without a note, the whole interface changed. Now you HAVE to fill in the comma. If you just type in 5000 like you did before, you would send USD 5000 instead of USD 50. I personally know of one person who send way to much money and I suspect it is because of this UX change.

Thoughtful design matters!

To expand on "money velocity": Inflation reaches high-priced assets and those which are largely bought by institutional investors first - Real estate and equity.
