    I feel like email overtook usernames because it was more likely to be unique/memorable. I hate when websites ask me to remember a username (even though I'm using a password manager…

    So I guess the solution is just to begin to allow accounts to always register multiple emails? Although I guess the issue of multiple accounts is still going to exist if the users …

    Here is an example! You tune out the audio description but it is also on the screen: https://x.com/Sephanade/status/2057539677767250212/mediaView...

    One of our vendors started charging a 10% tariff fee for parts ordered from Switzerland... we passed that fee directly on to our customers as a line item. I can't imagine the heada…

    If it was still uploading events then why did it take so long to recover?

    She apparently didn't have a subscription so it shouldn't have been uploading anywhere... however things get murky with notification settings.

    Yeah… I didn’t say they both weren’t true due to a mathematical error… I was insinuating that the survey is probably flawed because if 20% of Americans can’t read… they likely aren…

    1 in 5 Americans is functionally illiterate so.... yeah. There is no way this is true.

    I think something like 25% of the population reports 0 household income. (I don't understand the implications, it was just surprising when I heard that.)

    I wish they would give a real-world cost estimate of what this would look like. They have a section of it "in action" [1] and I wish they would be like, "with this setup, the invoi…

    I see value in the LLM being able to read/integrate my iMessages since a lot of my scheduling/commitments are discussed on there.

    I love how the top comment on that Reddit post is an *affiliate link* to an online therapy provider.
