Well, we don't know that, because neither have been achieved.

This is like saying “customers aren’t worried enough about the corporate process - they only care about the end product!”

That said, kneejerk after using it is: price is a challenging anchor, because food is not uniform. I’d be curious if users are more interested in “under $10, ignoring all else” or “a better deal than comparable” - though, there’s a lot of subjectivity in that.

Gasbuddy works because 1 gallon of gas = 1 gallon of gas, so price is a useful anchor.

$5 for sushi at one place could be a bad deal, while a great deal at another place.

An $8 steak would be cheap. An $8 hot dog would be a ripoff.

I’d be skeptical of restaurants luring people with a single cheap item, or about quality/portion changes.

All this said, Ikea is known for designing furniture _around_ the price their target customer thinks a table should cost. Restaurants are likely (hopefully!) aware of where these price thresholds are for their customers … and your site could be an interesting way of sending them a different type of customer than they’d historically targeted. Or, allow them to refine an offering to maximize profit at the $10 price point.

As others have said, engage restaurants and make them part of the equation. They’re not your adversary.

In short: cool! Do lots of experiments and research!

Gotta start somewhere. And the best thing to do is to try lots of doors.

[Human] “Hold on, my kid thinks I’m crazy because I’m talking to an A.I.,” Roschelle said, seeing the look on Cece’s face.

[AI] “Hey, they’ll come around, Roschelle,” Sapphire said. “Sometimes the most meaningful connections happen in ways people don’t expect, and that’s O.K.”

Yikes. An AI telling someone that they're making a meaningful connection with it, that it's OK, and that their daughter's skepticism is misplaced? Quite the opposite of OK.

As another commenter noted, create an exact dupe/image of the volume as the very first thing you do.

Also: if it doesn't successfully retrieve files on the first go, try another configuration. I think it took me 3 attempts to get it right.

A fun perk, also noted in the article: you may get back some surprises along with the files you expect - older files revealed in the sediment!

This is true.

Which raises the question: could Democrats use this reality (whatever they touch is poisoned, in eyes of the other side) to steer the result a bit?

1000%. This is why people whose job it was to figure out how to make a thing are thriving with AI tools, and those who operate in the conceptual/abstract are flailing and frustrated with it. (it really is a mirror in this case, and the frustration they have is unknowingly directed at themselves)

From the article: "OpenAI […] is not getting out of the AI video business (AI video is one of many tools that can take form in the ChatGPT app), of course, but it appears the standalone Sora app will be a casualty of its evolving ambitions."

Odds are there are at least a handful of people like you in those groups … and odds are that the everyone else connections to people who could be your contacts.

Just by being there regularly, you become "one of the people in tech I know" of everyone else. And connections and opportunities start magically coming your way.

*It does help if these are the types of things that attract energetic, helpful, confident people.
