I totally agree. I'm only saying that if you are buying the cheapest 3d printer you can find at BestBuy then you are probably not making interesting and useful tools. I wish I could prove that, it is purely speculation. I just see my o

Fine, I'll admit I am not always a careful reader. But, I did read it as: they should have diversified. I know from first hand experience that this is really expensive to do for a company. And, only possible when you can reduce costs i

I'm really curious how you found that MacOS consulting work. I have been battling MacOS build problems for years and so agree it is a rare and important skill. But I've yet to find the right place to sell that skill.

I've read all the comments here, many of which contradict my points. I used to agree with those ideas but then tried to sell LLMs to customers. My takeaway is that customers will pretend they care about privacy and needs for on prem in

It seems common to tiktok, Instagram, and any other platform where the majority of the people are craving followers that this kind of behavior will be rampant. Once you commit to these platforms there will always be someone pushing the boun

I keep seeing videos and articles about how fast fashion is the second worst polluting industry in the world behind the oil industry. That's concerning to me but I don't know if it is true.

I'm from Portland. And, recently moved to Florida. This issue feels a lot less cut and dried than people make it out. One thing I've noticed in Florida is that there are no public spaces. Every park has explicit hours, where it is
