This. They consistently ignore user feedback on problems with their ui. It’s really a mess and slow as hell.

I have been on the fence, and this pushed me off it. Thanks.

The dot com bubble took about 9 months, iirc. Of course, that’s my memory. What do others think?

Probably correct. I was coming out of my house and saw a lady about 7-8 houses away. Her dog was just finishing up and then she looked around. When she saw me, she dipped into her pocket for a bag. It was absolutely hilarious. She proba

Switched to Apple Notes recently. Used to use org mode, but the apps on iOS ... just bad. But, I use different things for different situations. For work, I use text files in a "howto/" subdirectory of a main repo.

A yubikey is even better. Mail accounts are so incredibly important these days.

I feel the same about dog owners who bag their dog’s crap and then leave the bag in the middle of the sidewalk.

This is why I make lists. Of everything. Checklists for technical processes (work and personal). Checklists for travel. Little "how to" docs on pretty much everything I do that I'm sure I won't remember past a week.

I read a year or more ago that the art of making glass eyes is being lost to the world. I don't remember the reasons, except that it's a difficult task and not enough people are learning it and maybe that insurance companies aren

Can you expand on the last sentence? Your comment was quite interesting. It’s pretty remarkable how long it took for the optician to get it.

A dumb population is more easily influenced by propaganda. They can also be mobilized against the enemies of the (current) state.

I think you overestimate the degree to which those 55M people follow any news. My mother's housekeeper has a green card and has zero clue what's going on in US politics. She recently went home to Mexico with absolutely no worrie

Absolutely. Every single one of those 55M people will think twice about every aspect of their life. It will be debilitating for many of them. How long can support for this last?

Straight up blackmail. It was my immediate thought, and nothing I’ve since it was announced has changed my opinion.

Well, sometimes they really gum up the works. I have developers in Ukraine and several times in the last year a wire transfer to them to pay them their monthly salary was held up for more than a month in transit. It was stuck at a bank in

That may be, but our use of DB was 1/1000 of what we do in a month with OpenAI and the bill we racked up was $3,000 in 1 day. We talked with them and because we freaked out and deleted the widget (whatever the connectors are called) t

That extension has "Access your data for all websites" ... I really don't get how anyone can give that permission to anyone that isn't well known (a company with a lot on the line) or a person famous for their work (the

I didn’t find it very funny when it came out. It seemed too long for the single joke.

This! We did some simple testing on their platform to integrate it into our product for a customer. In a few days of light work rang up a huge bill. Many multiples of what we spend on OpenAI, which gets heavy use.

I agree, but I read that a lot of the people who had terrible problems that winter a few years ago, many were low-income residents of TX. I think $2,000 for a generator is a nonstarter for them.
