I have been chatting with LLMs about therapy topics and found that they worked best when I loaded as much history info as possible into the chat box. I made a tool that guides the lay person through doing that:

Relationship graph - draw your relationships however you want and AI will understand

Cards - quick ways to ask and journal around therapy topiocs

Reports - will take all your info and create a deep report using various psychology/therapeutic modalities.

Chat - can chat w/all this data.

An AI powered web scraper. Chrome extension. Uses interesting LLM capabilities in natural language (website of your choosing)->structured data. It’s working pretty well!

For me it will not be tired until we’re not addicted to social media anymore

This isn't far off from how it works. You can get prelim approval. But I believe you need to have final submittal 6 months later.

I intuitively agree but have learned that "Cities should be able to plan their own growth." is just too simplistic.

Chicken or egg.

The whole US was once walkable, then we massively subsidized driving for 2 generations, and now they are not walkable.

It's more about the city planners not having to be parking experts. Parking minimums are one of many subsidies to drivers in that they set a supply floor for parking spots. If driving is so popular then why do we have to shower drivers with money at every level of government?

They are maybe 40-50% lower. Does this move the needle for climate change? No. And it’s not just lifetime car emissions. It’s the car dependent life that cars require

Remember the emissions to manufacture the vehicle... they're higher for EVs. Lifecycle emissions for EVs therefore aren't much lower than ICE.

This will not save the planet. We need to consume less, and walk/bike/take transit more. Fine, this may not be for you, but at least don't insist on a the rest of subsidizing you (untaxed climate externality).

We can create a magnetosphere at Lagrange point between Mars and Sun that has a tail that would protected Mars from solar radiation. Radiation from other stars is still a problem I think? https://phys.org/news/2017-03-nasa-magnetic-shield-mars-atmo...

You're free to rent somewhere with larger parking spaces.

It's unlikely enough that we should spend this money on Medicare for All, climate change, etc. We already have a gillion fighter jets too...
