   Does anyone else have the problem where they write a lot, but it all seems to go into the void and never produce any tangible benefit? How do I produce writing that people want to read?

   I love the idea of considering the maximum viability of a product. we could even combine the two to create a viable product range for shipping a new product

   Unclear if this is in production or if they are just seeing if it’s viable to build, but it would be awesome if this works! I signed up for the release.

   I looked it up because of what you said. It’s a pretty substantial article. What part of it is a fallacy? The part about computers obviously not having intelligence? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_room

   Would the “guitar solo” part of songs fit this definition, or not really?

   It is not safe, if you have crypto in coinbase they can steal it the exact same way FTX stole their users crypto. You do not own crypto stored on an exchange

    This is why I always try to tip in cash, even when paying with a credit card. Higher chance of the tip actually going to the worker(s) and not their managers.

    I'm not so sure things are as dire as the article makes them out to be. As long as you avoid soma, lower nob hill, civic center, fidi, and the tenderloin it's been a great place to live during/after the pandemic. Rent is actu

    The solution to that is to not invest (or gamble) more than you are willing to lose and not to take financial advice from movie stars.

    Oh just tap the little mic button next to the space bar with any app. It works great (admittedly a white, American male here).

    Part of my solution to this is to identify what parts of a project can be done from my phone and then intentionally avoid doing those on the computer. - Writing correspondence, essays, docs, todolists? The voice-to-text feature works great

    Many of those games have sequels, doesn’t that mean they have been developed further?

    I wouldn’t call it a dystopian nightmare, just movies are no longer as engaging as they used to be. Now I can text/send videos pics or voice to any of my friends at any moment I feel. Why should I force myself to watch the boring part

    Just from personal experience, but NYC, SF, and many European cities are cheaper and faster to navigate without a car from within the city. Sometimes it depends where you're going within the city, though, for example outer brooklyn to

    The sub header in the article is >“ The software giant said earlier this year that it planned to reduce staff by less than 1%” Sorry to hear about those employees who were laid off, but this is not interesting news.

    Balance that against the time saved by having GH actions instead of managing your own Jenkins server or something and it’s pretty fair
