That's a new angle to me. I rely on pseudonymous content like Reddit and HN. It does make sense to look for people or groups focused on a larger topic like fitness. That helps a lot! Thank you.

This is a problem I'm working on. What sorts of unique things did you do that Google failed at? Maybe you read through discussion sites or got tips from books or something like that

That's not a very charitable interpretation of my rhetorical question. More to the point, why would a person presumably not specialized in hiring be tasked to make a decision about a role they have no expertise in, based on a 40 minute

I worked at Sutherland Global a few years ago. They would literally just pull any random manager to do interviews, with no instructions or qualifications for the task whatsoever. I found out that one of the managers who was in charge of int

The lack of self-awareness shown by this interviewer is staggering. You're right, they seem to relish wasting their (paid) and applicants' (unpaid) time. I won't hold my tongue. The people that do this are total assholes, if

I've been coding since I was a little kid and my first encounters with Shortcuts were intimidating. The thing that pushed me to learn it was perennial laziness. Anything that I see myself doing repeatedly becomes a target for automatio

With some of this stuff there's specifications that can be obtuse. It takes some research to discover what iOS expects an input to look like. For your shortcut, without knowing the specific step you're stuck at, first get the curr

Reddit has a very active Shortcuts community. I myself have spent dozens of hours on Shortcuts. Maybe I can help point you in the right direction. What do you want to accomplish?

95% of my Google searches are suffixed with "MDN" or "site:reddit.com". If I'm looking for something particularly technical I'll search HN. That especially helps when I feel at my wit's end about some gene

I hadn't thought of joining EA meetings. It might be a good social/organizational exercise for me to try to start one in my town if there isn't one going already.

I live in tandem with a nihilistic part of myself, the blackpilled part of me. It likes to secretly collect evidence for why it should be dominant. When it has been in control is when I have felt the freest, the most authentic. What's

Crypto is an industry. Yeah, it's 99% scams and ponzis. If you wiped away that entire industry, would your argument still hold weight?

If anyone is curious of a workflow that might work on ios: Settings > Accessibility > Back Tap. You can then assign a Shortcut to run when you tap the back of your phone. The taps are finicky for me, maybe because of my phone case. I

Did the transcription work well? I always found myself taking more time editing the text later than the time I saved with dictation.

A tangent, but the movie Hardcore Henry is a first-person perspective action movie in that vein. Once I got over the initial motion sickness it was insanely riveting.

I could have clarified. I did not assume that you are an apologist, just that it's easy to construct an apologia from your points. I understand what you mean in regards to a market understanding. I think our comments compliment each ot

It's convenient to clamp our understanding of reality. If I convince myself that cows are baser creatures, it makes it a lot easier to enjoy this juicy burger made from its child.

You accuse others of rationalizing these collective behaviors and end up sounding like an apologist. The fact is that companies engage and enable each other to perpetuate information asymmetries. They run me through the ringer of hours of t

I think that's why YouTubers self-censor the word "suicide". Intent is currently difficult to parse, so mod bots probably have a low threshold for blocking related content. I think TikTok had this problem with bomb threats to

That's a dismissive attitude of other people's suffering. I have never had debilitating migraines, but I feel compassion for people who experience them. I value any innovation that would alleviate their suffering, just as I hope o

I agree. People who can sip from firehoses of information are going to be rewarded. I have a feeling that anything that requires long-chunks of attention has a high chance of being automatable.
