Doesn’t work at all for me. Entered my my prompt… It did a bunch of stuff - apparently initially focused on making me an app icon which I don’t really care about. I moved away from the app, went back and everything had gone and my prompt wa

I’ve just moved house. I have a few high quality pieces of furniture that I’d like to keep but don’t have space for, so considered storage. They are things that I’ve bought second hand and at auctions, and part of the pleasure is the hunt.

Honestly not sure why this is any sort of surprise. I very occasionally read UN reports for work. I very frequently see journalists covering those reports using the press release, clearly not having read anything else. And then I see low

Actually, the Irish government considered exactly that! I'm not sure if they moved forward with it though. And Southend in England tried to do the same (but failed...)

I don’t think I’ve ever been to Italy and not seen a Caesar salad in a menu!

“Europe” is a big place. In my experience Caesar salads are very common in London, in the South of France, in Italy and in Greece.

I said to a colleague the other day that Law360’s reporting seems to be more tortuous and weird than usual. I wonder if this is why. There was one piece on a case I’ve been following quite closely where I was genuinely unable to make sense

Zoom was worth around $125 billion at the start of July 2021. It’s now worth about $23 billion. So by that logic, Superhuman may be worth around $165 million. More interestingly though, let’s assume they spent the $110 million they raised.

I’m really not sure what I just read. I mean, I know what I read in terms of the words - but I don’t understand what its purpose is. But I don’t necessarily think it matters… It was thoroughly diverting, held my attention and made me wish t

That's a slightly redundant criticism though - it doesn't present itself as anything other than a single purpose database designed for financial transactions. That's like saying that rice noodles are no good for making risott

Problem is the work isn’t very good either now. It’s like being sold to by someone who read a “sales techniques of the 1980s” or something. If I’m asking it to help me analyse legal filings (for example) I don’t want breathless enthusiasm a

I find your comment very confusing! You don’t understand why people call it the Death Star but as soon as you got the lamp you started calling it the Death Star but you struggle to see the resemblance? Surely you’ve answered your own questi

Also I think there’s a bug when you view “All-time Stats”. I’ve only played once and in my first game I scored 3971 but it shows lifetime points of 7942 (which exactly double 3971) and 2 games played. Great game though, really good idea!

To be fair, there’s a big difference between journalists and headline writers! Headline writing is the art of taking something that a journalist has thought about in detail and carefully crafted and making it into something that someone wit
