I really don't get how people work, sometimes. Same. I can’t fathom having a reaction like this to someone using a web browser that I didn’t.

I’m 41 and have been hoping for over a decade that I can get through my life before a conflict with China. Alas, I don’t think I’m going to be so lucky.

Tesla has spent more billions on ML than any corporation in the world. I can’t wait to book my first FSD robotaxi ride at some point in the next decade.

I enjoy Serif products but have always wondered how it would survive. Pixelmator stayed a family-run bootstrapped operation while Serif scaled a company in the EU around the Affinity Suite.

I’m a huge space nerd. It takes up most of my free time. I have never once read about abort-to-orbit capability as a concept, let alone a requirement for Artemis HLS. Here’s a 4 year old video detailing past abort systems and why Starship w

I’m not sure how many are employed at LinkedIn today, but at the end of 2019 there were 65 journalists at the company. This is clearly a strategy to get people to spend more time in the site. https://edition.cnn.com/2019&#x2
