I'm too wary to be an early adopter, but I'm glad that there are many people who are stoked about getting in on this. If it turns out to be as great as it seems, it will be a dream come true.

Agree with all that. The criticism is that this is a big, American company, one of the largest and most impactful ever, that makes lots of money and is quite profitable, and yet pays its workers low enough that they need to be subsidized wi

I think the problem is that the mechanism to trigger mouse-hover is not clear on a touchscreen - there are several different ways that need to be remembered and tried, as evidenced by your comment.

When people talk about human-level AGI, they are not referring to an AI that could pass as a human to most people - that is, they're not simply referring to a program that can pass the Turing test. They are referring to an AI that can
