    True, I hadn't framed it that way either, but it makes sense. Sometimes just stepping away from the usual rhythm creates its own kind of reset

    Alas, I'm not alone in meditating and thinking while taking a shower. It's one of the moments of my day when I recollect what happened, what I need to do, and what not to do. The p…

    I can’t confirm that exact percentage, but yes—“prime” placements on Amazon are driven by Amazon Ads. the Sponsored Brands banner at the top of the search results page, and the Top…

    They pulled the plug on the project almost right away. Apparently, it had something to do with YouTube not being able to limit the live stream to Southeast Asian countries without …

    I find it both surprising and, fortunately, reassuring that despite how easy it is to buy inexpensive components on platforms like Amazon, Temu, or AliExpress, we have yet to see a…

    In Italy, cigarette packs carry shocking pictures of diseased lungs, tumors, and other severe health effects, yet they fail to deter smokers. It’s essentially a cultural problem.

    I suppose that they just keep referring to the website in their chats, and probably they have selected the search function, so before every reply, the crawler hits the website

    Could you point me to some European banks that integrate your product? My current bank doesn't have something similar, and I would like to have an option to view all my subscriptio…

    Thanks! I didn't notice it because I only have manual mail fetch. But I did notice frequent crashes of the app when you open heavy email (e.g with lots of images)

    Genuine Question: What problem did you encounter within the Mail App?

    I'm experiencing the same problem with my Google Home ecosystem. One day I can turn off the living room lights with the simple phrase "Turn off Living Room Lights," and then random…

    Google has caught a serious case of FOMO. Every major/minor player is scrambling to blend search with LLMs.

    Did you find some walls put in place by these sites to block scraping? I have a little project like that written in R that has surprisingly worked well over a year without maintena…
