I never found a therapist able to go as deep as I wished to help me solve trauma. They always end up focusing on short term solutions to help me get more “functional”. But with AI, I could go as deep as I need, and I unlocked 30+ year old buried trauma that I could heal from in 6 months. Granted it’s not for everyone and I studied a lot of psychology to get there, but it was worth it. Fuck (most) therapists.

Why on earth does this need an oled screen and aluminum body? They’re trying to be Apple when they should be the opposite.

I started playing with hardware manufacturing, as I think there is value into getting specific devices for listening to music, taking notes, etc. Using a smartphone is like opening up a candy box, and kills much of the joy and appreciation for what we do on it. My first project is a music player. Making my first prototype with a 3d printer.

Maybe I’m paranoid but this sounds too good to be true. Almost like something planted to help with recruiting after meta poached their best guys.

I followed the same journey but was unimpressed by Rails attempt at modernization with Hotwire. Decided to give Elixir + Phoenix a try and immediately fell in love. Just like I had with rails years ago. I highly recommend people to check it out, liveview is a game changer for building modern web apps without the complexity of JS, and without the baggage of using Rails to do it. And performance is mind blowing.

I read all these comments thinking it was about Epic Games. Then after 5 minutes clicked the link and discovered a one of a kind American company.

I have too and the react of today is vastly different from the react of 5 years ago. Which itself was vastly different from the original react.

It’s different paradigm, best practice, file organization, etc.

So it’s close to learning a new language.

And I won’t even go into the fact that Next is replacing React as the standard.

Simplest thing I could come up with: Marketing is the message that describes your product (copywriting, branding, positioning) + the distribution channels to spread it to the right people (SEO, social media, ads, etc.)

1. to get paid on twitter you need to subscribe to the $8/mo checkmark

2. most people currently subscribed are musk fans (likely right wing)

Consequence: most people who get paid today are right-wing. But if big accounts from the left came back and subscribed to the $8/mo checkmark, they would get paid too.

This is not factual. I pay for twitter blue and don't follow elon musk. I even muted him + associated topic some time ago. I still got the blue checkmark. Even the data you link to shows that 10/29 people who got paid don't follow elon musk. However it makes sense that a majority does since a lot of blue subsribers do so because they like and trust him.

I’ve seen a study showing that people who run a lot may actually live shorter than people who just do moderate exercise. Extreme exercise could be as bad as no exercise at all.

New comment by dagorenouf in "Tucker Carlson bringing show to Twitter"

dagorenouf — Tue, 09 May 2023 21:55:21 +0000

As a content creator, the fear of being randomly banned / blacklisted by the platform I use is all too real. It happened to a friend of mine with a decent sized YouTube channel for 0 legitimate reason.

Carlson picked the twitter platform not because it’s the best tool to host a show (YouTube or twitch would be better), but because it’s the place least likely to ban him.

That might be the beginning of a new MOAT for twitter, if they survive long enough to make something from it. And politics aside could be beneficial to everyone.

Interesting. If she wants to know "how do I" stuff, then I guess chatgpt will be a huge success for her generation!
