Made this same decision with my mom in her late 50's. She went back to work and uses Microsoft day to day at her job...but the Apple decision both for PC and for phone has been very beneficial. It was always more intuitive for her.

Ugh Whisper. On Audible I used to browse the free sci fi. Found James S. A. Corey, etc. there and ended up spending a lot...and I mean a lot of money buying authors series that I had never heard of. Now all the Whisper read... stuff cro

At "later in life" I look back and see that I did this too much with things I didn't deem important at the time. Fast food immediately comes to mind. A promised "tech" for the every person, the too busy person, th

I wonder if this is to help support a newish arch. like the one Microsoft and Intel are proposing (Taipei conf.) with each laptop/pc having a dedicated NPU, CPU, GPU to bring some of the Copilot button back on PC? Everything I see tod

I would agree with this for state work as well. Alabama, because Montgomery is super cheap, is a very good option. I will warn you though...the red tape can take a while. Fill out the paperwork or call the local contract recruiters. We

Refining is dirty and dangerous so it has been pushed out. Used to work for a Canadian gold mine in Montana in the mid 90's. Most of the friends I graduated with went overseas for new mines or were Environmental engineers focused on

This saved me probably 3 months work digging up a good summary of the current state of specifically LLMs. This is a highly dense, easily consumable summary for someone like me. Even if it's only 80% encompassing super valuable. Than

"To really solve novel problems with LLMs will take a large amount of research, experimentation and prototyping of ideas, but people funding this hype have no patience for that. I fear we'll get hit by a major AI winter when inves

Anecdotal but we are in an AI freeze. I was, emphasize was, using copilot for over a quarter for development augmentation and seeing good velocity gains, our organization, now that it is all over the news (AI not our organization), has aske

It wasn't the boomer parents killing the fun. They have more money so the ads came, the addiction cycle was changed to accommodate that potential revenue, and it didn't/doesn't appeal to anyone from GenX younger anymore

This has been the hardest adjustment for me moving from Montana to the deep South. The south has definite advantages for me at this point. Stability, easier growing crops and animals, better infrastructure, etc. But not being able to jus

I recommend Speed Queens for washing machine and dishwasher. We have them in our house and barn the prosumer versions not the coin ops. Have survived everything from nails-horse blankets and even a miswired 220 on the dryer.

I agree. We have a farm as well and Georgia clay, tractor grease, pebbles, a miswired 220 outlet (just popped a fuse...easily replaced), nails, and the occasional misplaced socket haven't broken it. Gets used 3-4 times daily. We als

This is common practice with 3rd party/used sellers of books. It has been going on since the early 2000's and started as an excel spreadsheet that would go out and look up a price for you, match or go a penny lower, or raise pric

Yes the average American farmer cares because inputs are expensive. Really expensive. That's why spot spraying on a massive scale has been invented. If you want to see one in action look up Welker Farms in YouTube. There are some v
