I would love to hear your process for picking a successful ad campaign. I tried doing meta ads for my mom’s business and it didn’t really go anywhere

I hadn’t considered the irony of an ad-supported podcast questioning their own livelihood, good catch

Dunno about you, but I didn’t fall for it. I’m reminded of how they were “afraid” to release GPT-2 because of the “power” it had. Hype train!

While on that note, same thing with Nextdoor. You do see a lot of older folks accidentally posting stuff there, though, and it’s a good lesson for what not to do also

I was gonna post the same story. The “donate grandma to medical science” story only to find out she was used to test landmines is too wild

Love it! Thanks for the context.

I didn’t vote him in, I’m just dealing with the consequences. That being said, how’s the military spending coming along guys?

Reading hackernews comments in the morning from Europeans always wakes me up. It’s like a Markov chain of Reddit comments about how Europe doesn’t need the US

The LLM-use witch hunt accusations are rampant on every single article. That snippet doesn’t sound like an LLM to me. Have your coffee and consider that this person was just complimenting coders from back in the day.

To understand this rhetoric, you have to understand how important American Football is to the majority of the voting American public. We love a team that hits hard and wins the trophy! The good guys winning! What’s better? Have you seen a

People are only willing to pay for quality, mostly. I can’t just say that I’m a neurosurgeon because I want to be one. There has always been reward for merit and suffering for lack of merit. Nothing “anti human” about social Darwinism

This post makes the assumption that people choose not to drive because it’s annoying or that they can’t multitask (the latter, unfortunately, seems not to be a blocker in the Bay Area). I don’t see how this would increase demand significant

You know who the novelty didn’t wear off for? My in-laws, who for some ungodly reason are superusers on TikTok. Once the audio-enabled, realistic videos of babies and children hit the feed, it was a virtual 9/11 moment. The group chat

The entire point of shoehorning AI into everything is to make people stop thinking for themselves and allowing a corporation to do it for them. “””If I could just press “buy” from within Gemini and pay via Google Pay (or better still, App

I’m in the US and generally pretty level-headed. Nothing makes me become a red-blooded patriot nationalist temporarily faster than seeing Europeans completely ignore the similarities in our political ills. It always boils down to, “but it’

You don’t think that the person you’re replying to is Donald Trump, do you? He’s not wrong even though I can see why amassing independent defense didn’t feel necessary all this time

If it doesn’t, you can try and find some free resources online. If you’re in NYC, my mom’s business is HappyMyo and you can tell her her son sent you from HN. Good luck and I hope it helps you, it sounded really hippie and lame when I heard

With sleep apnea, I highly recommend you look into myofunctional therapy, which is like airway physical therapy. (full disclosure, my mom is a myofunctional therapist). It worked for several friends; They still use their cpap but they get m

I don’t mean to be as aggressive as this sounds but the frogs probably liked the increasingly warm water too until it started boiling. How many steps between MitID and a fork that is used to enforce extreme censorship?

Melt it down and sell at spot price would be my guess

Thanks, my wife and I did one and it helped but it’s really hard to find the root cause because I also wasn’t eating bread at the time. I also get it from beer but not liquor, which makes me consider its gluten. Great point though, I’ll kee

I have never been more depressed than grad school working for a complete sociopath. Even people working for “normal” PIs suffered. You are so right

Is there anything like this for the MX Ergo? I would be very interested in any software-based “hacks” for the mouse.

My friend used to work at Logitech. Everyone in the trenches knows the software they pump out is trash, but the higher ups are somehow convinced that it “sets them apart”. I assume they think it sets them apart in a good way, but it’s quite

I’ll dig in more but my first question when I see this: who are the donors exactly? Like who decides what the ideal gut microbiome is and that John Doe is the guy to provide his fecal matter to the masses?
