That's why the airlines started having separate lounges primarily for the Polaris, Delta One, and Flagship fliers. They are what the prior lounges used to be. Delta One at LHR is also nice because you check in at the counter and head t

Oddly enough, no car rental place has ever checked. Supposedly the police care, but I haven't seen much evidence of that either. Given they only cost $25, I keep one with me anyway.

I wasn't even aware you could get them at the DNV. I've always gone to AAA to get one. They have always seemed like a bit of a scam to me since anytime I've been stopped in a foreign country the police have been more interest

There's a reason people flock to the coasts. I grew up in the deep southern US. It was hot and humid, but we spent all day every day outside. We either went to the beach or played in the river. You just get used to the heat. We barely

This sounds more like bad editing regardless if they used an LLM or not. For me, I can now skip the step of handing something to marketing/editor who wants to make it more impactful because I use AI up front do that - including making

Yeah, prices have been dynamic for a long time. My method for getting better sats is buy the cheapest ticket that can be upgraded. Then, check for upgrade pricing daily. You'll see prices move all over day to day. Buy the upgrade if th

It'll be interesting if it does since I treat it like a machine teaching me a language.

I “talk” with an LLM to help me learn a language (quite useful actually), and my parter quipped, “I wonder how long until tells you to leave me.”

And if the work you're doing feels meaningful and you're properly compensated. Ask people to work really hard to fill out their 360 reviews and they should rightly laugh at you.

CapEx vs. OpEx. If they stop training today what happens? Does training always have to be at these same levels or will it level off? Is training fixed? IE, you can add 10x the subs and training costs stay static. IMO, there is a great busin

Except you glossed over the part where the person said they lacked time. There is programming the art and programming to solve a problem. The art is great - I’ve written software for decades. Life dictates I no longer have as much time, but
