The article mentions decreasing screen-time as a way to manage burnout, then plugs an app for managing your well being. Found that funny to be honest.

Maybe you're pushing yourself too hard? Academia isn't all it's made out to be. If you know you're not going to enjoy it or be able to focus, maybe you're right to think about leaving. It sounds like you have good e

Google search has become less user unfriendly, turned their back on their old business model. It seems they've deliberately blurred the lines between ads and relevance. Bing is now easier to use.

Quite often people just see it from a consumer's point of view but if I were a taxi driver, why would I want to work for Uber? Sure it's good for early adopters but ultimately you get no job security and no wage security.

Can't they just rebrand the 737 max? Sort out their dodgy internal processes and add some new safety features. They've been repackaging old designs since the 60's anyway. Either that or they go all in on a new medium-range ai

This is something I have to think about too. Interested to know what kind of tools you're using, as this may influence how you collaborate with these teams.

similarly, I don't get the whole automated driving thing. -Would you get trust a car with your safety and the safety of other road users? Uber already killed a woman. -"Planes already fly themselves" actually they don't

From my experience selling on Amazon, their vendor tools are absolute trash. These days Amazon(retail) is just a centralised eBay, anyone can list anything.

The taxicab industry is a saturated market that is heavily regulated. Uber's only USP was that it could bypass regulation (and in some cases, tax). Uber should serve as a warning imo - speculation drove the valuation so high on what i

I was thinking recently about video streaming sites. There is only one, really, that creators can use. Youtube creators are very vocal about how frustrating YT is becoming. What if creators could use any video streaming site (vimeo, tiktok,
