   I live in one of the loudest areas in the planet. I'm not exaggerating when I say without my noise cancelling headphones I would barely be able to do my job. It is also one of the main reasons I don't see myself working on site ag

   I don't. Keeping up with comment threads is something I do at work, not in my free time.

   Google make a large chunk of their money from ads. If you create some SaaS where users can automate their site's SEO by using GPT or whatever, and it is reasonably priced, you could end up competing with Google Ads. Google want to prev

   That AI generated content is automated SEO, which is mostly a bunch of heuristics to please Google's ranking algorithms. Blame the algorithms, not the people who reverse engineer them.

   I'm making twice as much I was making before the Great Resignation and it will be somewhere between 3x and 4x by the end of the year. Behind some job hopper there's usually a bad CFO.

    Twitter had a relatively good signal to noise ratio until 2011 or so. It became the place where people go to freak out and spy on their coworkers somewhere between late 2011 and mid 2012. By the mid 2010s it was creepy.

    I have chronic back pain. So far, several doctors agree that the symptoms are there, but none of them have been able to identify the cause. Pain and the mobility issues that come with it sometimes disappear briefly, for an hour or so. I kno
