I’ve been in a position to get and give help many times in my life. Paying people back doesn’t do much. Paying people forward creates genuine impact. At points in your life, you will be in a place to help others. Help them. If they pay it f

Tennis is competitive though and unlike golf there’s no form of handicap. When it comes to pick up tennis, it’s not fun playing against someone way below or way above your level. I refer to myself as mediocre at tennis so I can play against

Builder.ai had a totally different flow, but yeah, when boring stories and exciting ones compete to tell the same story, a very large percentage will run with the exciting story. It’s like death tax in US political history - the US has neve

You are the only person suggesting that o3 is AGI or even an approach to AGI. They’re different beasts entirely.

She->her (like everything in English) makes a lot more sense if you start in the roots of English. She was “hio” or “heo” and her was “hire”. By the 13th century, the pronunciations of he and heo had converged and become synonyms so “she

In other words, you don’t learn through experimentation and your learning style is the only valid one? Okay…this isn’t worth debating but science has proven that to be wrong. It may be worth reading some cognitive psych.

I don’t know whether to say great comment or “damnit, I just listened to them both and now I’m doing it too.” Maybe a bit of both. But that’s quite the thing.

It doesn’t seem to be that widespread - mostly being confined to short one way trips. There is no evidence of it happening on international or return flights. It feels more like a test of a strategy to fill middle seats.

These sorts of CSS experiments have been around for as long as CSS. There even used to be a site where an entire community would take basic markup and use CSS to turn it into something else. (I just googled that phrase - the site is CSS Zen

It’s interesting. Whenever someone says “the US needs to do a better job of funding education” someone always comes out with this exact comment. Yes, the world knows that your country spends more per capita on education than other countries

Democracy is fundamentally about putting in free labour. That’s just how it works, from the lowliest municipal elections up to federal. It’s a lot of unpaid labour. That system works and has worked for a long time.
