You can indeed. However, if I knew all of the words I would mispronounce, I would have already looked them up! The trouble with mispronouncing words is that often you’re unaware that you’re doing so. Respite got me recently.

You can always tell someone who is well read in English when they mispronounce everything they say. Greek is so much easier than English to pronounce words correctly.

Yes. However, really it’s our lead VC investors who are forcing it and want to see us have 75-100% AI teams. Yet now we’re in a mini panic after customers said the core functionality of my team’s product isn’t up to muster. So we’ll probabl

Very cool looking designs. I’ve always been partial to the more straightforward Rolex explorer myself, but it’s far too expensive for my tastes.

Language Transfer[0] will continue to be a better resource than any AI course. It’s very hard to beat a human that has put in time crafting a logical way to teach a language with the appropriate ramp ups. The Greek course on there is fantas

An issue I have with my SE is that ever since the last major iOS release in September, I think they forgot how tall the device is. Notification Center pushes notifications so far down, that I’m unable to scroll down to see them. It feels li

This exactly why I push back to people such as Sam Altman making the claim that AI will allow us to create more art, which people want. Do people truly want or need that?

The Facebook iOS app used to be great too when it was developed by one man. Or at least I thought so at the time. I can’t remember if that was the app designed by Joe Hewitt or Adam Ernst.

That’s a great approach! That’s what I meant to convey if I had been a bit more articulate. I assume journalists do exactly that. Takes away some laborious work while retaining accuracy.

Thanks for the clarification. Bit ironic given the talk’s subject. It is quite a bit of effort, but there’s something to say for going through and manually writing up the transcript like a journalist. Sometimes you can’t beat human effort ;

Thanks for the clarification. Personally, I view accounting as a dying industry in America. The number of well paid accountants is few and decreasing each year. If programming follows that path, it will be devastating for the industry. Some

Do you mind clarifying your point? Are you implying excel didn’t replace accountants? As a CPA and software engineer I can tell you that I left the accounting industry because accountants had been replaced. Wages are abysmally low for a fie
