I remember when ‘Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products’ came out by Nir Eyal. It came out the same year as ‘Addiction by Design’ and was rapidly adopted in the SV and HN circles. I heard somewhere he felt bad about the impact of Hoo

I hear you. You are 100% correct, it is NOT easy... for a LOT of reasons. I hope you didn't feel like I was making light of it or implying that it was easy. it is not. Full stop. Congrats on making it so far against such odds. Tha

Glad I could offer some hope / peace. It is truly remarkable the difference when one moves from deep depression to the lack of it.

Wow, thank you, that is very kind. Something my wife and I decided very on in our journey into the space was to be as open as possible about it; both to help with distigmatjzation as well as just general knowledge sharing. I certainly knew

Being an engineer, I use the analogy of SNR, signal to noise ratio. Depression and anxiety, often comorbid, raise the noise floor to the point that it is incredibly hard to feel confident that a decision can be made. This in turn results

It doesn’t need to listen all the time… just grab a few words after you put it down or hit the lock button. Or listen while you are actively using it. Building a word cloud would be trivial and with minimal battery impact

Apple settled a lawsuit about Siri ‘unintentionally’ listening. [1] So, yes, they also can likely predict what you want based on all they do openly track… but we can no longer claim that they aren’t listening. Based on the lawsuit and other

I LOVED the Honda Cog video and the story [1] about how they made it along with the purported 100+ takes is craziness. I can't imagine resetting it so many times... especially since the offending item that kept killing it was so late

While I also detest commercials as a whole, I think it is worth stepping back and viewing this as art. The concept, the visuals, the original song (not the one you find on most videos due to licensing)... it is beautiful and should evoke c

Beyond personal images and documents of important, this was the second reason for establishing a home NAS with 3,2,1 backup [1]. Physical media fails, so you better have a plan for dealing with that if you care to maintain access. [1]( htt

Ray Porter, the narrator, is quite the talent. He does a brilliant job with ‘Project: Hail Mary’ as well which is the second book from the author of ‘The Martian.’ It has quite a bit more science and humor than The Martian and is one of my

One thing that I haven't seen discussed in the comments is the inherent vulnerability of S3 pricing. Like all things AWS, if something goes sideways, you are suddenly on the wrong side of a very large bill. For instance, someone can

I wish this discussed the timing arbitration of each move. Based on the packet information (if that is correct & complete) then the timing is done entirely on the clients. However, they show the time in seconds which can't be rig

How are you testing air quality on the plane? I am also curious how you connect CO2 levels to pathogen levels. Would a carbon filtration system adjust the CO2 levels at the same rate as pathogens?
