I would love a 4d/10hr workweek. This schedule aligns much better with how I work. Starting work on any effort requires an initial investment of time to get spooled, and then anything after that is productive. This makes me prefer larg

I expect the media led zeitgeist to slime you on a few fronts: 1. AI/automation/tech bros undercutting the working class. 2. The mortal danger of self driving cars to pedestrians and the public- perhaps with an AI bias/racism

That was not what I was suggesting. Copying my edit from above: I'm specifically talking about these unencrypted parts: 1. The number of "Skyking do not answer"s indicates the severity of the message. 2. The fact that it is k

Why don't they use encryption? Wouldn't it be preferable for your messages to be completely inscrutable? [Edit] To clarify my question, I'm specifically talking about these unencrypted parts: 1. The number of "Skyking do
