And in mobile gaming there's also the matter of looking for "whales". Basically, while majority of people will never spend anything, there's a minority willing to pay hundreds or t…

The difference in conversions between free and $1 is not a matter of price. The hard part is getting someone to pay in the first place. That's why a model of free game with paid ad…

At my last job, I had a little bit of experience on the other side of the hiring table – our founder walked me through our hiring process, and it was really eye opening. Any postin…

> If you're trying to find a job, you're not applying for "anything and everything". You're applying for a specific role. Strong agree. I'd only add that you might have way better …

Eh, I might be a whiner, but I seeing that nature.com, I expected something better than a Malcol Gladwell level article. Okay, the tip with anthropomorphisation is okay, and remind…

I didn't realize that, thank you

It kind of seems like an intimidation tactic. Not too many artists will be willing to claim copyright infringement, if they can get hit with a suit in response. And in the meantime…

Is it legal though? Article mentioned forbidding the use of crawlers. Besides, it talks a lot how they only link to the image... but that's not how AI works, right? Maybe after inc…

Yeah, the annoying notifications are the visible part... but as far as I know, GDPR has a pretty serious impact if you're European. It allows you to ask private companies to delete…

I think the entire idea behind safety is to start worrying before it becomes critical. Similarly with Covid, the right time to start worrying (on a societal level) was before the d…

It was never considered common sense. Some variant of what you're thinking about might've been possible in a small society (say, when the shop owner in a village knew all his custo…

I think there's a massive scale blindness here. Like, obviously I'd be in a big trouble if my password manager suddenly put all of my data online and it could lead to massive finan…

If you want to go thay route, it might be better instead to add a % to all the prices, and then at the end give it back if someone left a clean table. Something like "as a small to…

I think both of this comment is needlessly hostile. Like, starting the conversation with an accusatory comment of "hey, btw, did you think of this very super rare situation, or are…

Except your concern is addressed even in the part that I quoted: "The growth factors [hormones] that are produced have a very similar structure to the human molecules and that is h…

Here's an interesting part that's buried by the end: >Another area of research focuses on maggots’ wound-healing properties. “Clinical and anecdotal evidence suggested that maggots…

Hm, first, why exactly would you like to make this shift? Purely to train social skills? If so, I'd recommend finding some small sales side-gig over the weekends instead of doing a…

I really liked your post, especially comparison in the introvert/extrovert thinking: >Notice the difference in narrative: > > “That person looks interesting, I wonder what their st…

> I'd like to feel more at ease with myself, feel more comfortable contributing in an authentic, confident, light-hearted way. But instead I'm often in my head over-analyzing inste…

For what it's worth, my experience was opposite to yours. Public speaking: once I built competency and realized I'm actually pretty good at it, I started enjoying it much more. Now…

It reminds me of a time when I've looked found an old password-protected .rar archive on my old computer. It took me around a day to brute force the password and I ended up finding…

I am very grateful that the OP posted that "tone deaf comment". I'd much rather live in a world where I can read blunt comments by developers, versus a watered-down statements writ…

This might sound a bit assholish, but I'm writing this to hopefully help others spot a crucial mistake: Did you have anyone on your team with actual skill in sales or marketing? Be…

It works through a life insurance. So it's not just the subscription. Besides that, as far as I understand, cryonics is heavily dependent on effects of scale. My hope is that by th…

If you're in Europe – I'm signed with Tomorrow Biostasis ( https://www.tomorrow.bio ) and the pricing is not as bad as I expected when I initially started thinking about it.
