Based on recent experiences guiding my parents and younger brother through the medical world, I'm happy with AI as an alternative or complement. There are good doctors out there, but they're often booked solid or you only see them

It ultimately doesn't change the advice. Strongly deciding I wanted a career change led me to putting in some extra time and tripling my income. It's easier if you can reduce obligations and noise and focus on what matters to opti

For a lot of usecases there is a strong 80% functionality. E.g. For Handbrake, 80% of the time I am reducing the size of my video screen grabs from my computer or phone. Don't need any resolution change, etc. There are other times I wa
