Autocomplete for CLI apps, gui for directory changes, just quality of life things.

It isn’t telling you how many calories you consumed. It’s just insights into the nutrition from the food you consume.

That is an example. Correct. What’s the issue?

There’s a “How many people do you shop for” button.

Yes, but from my point of view I had to speak my request twice before the AI responded. I thought it was thinking, but it was a very long delay between pauses. I like the idea, don…

Without sounding overly pessimistic, but I have the opinion that copyright laws were written and developed in a different era. Finical interests, not the public’s, are to blame for…

It doesn’t seem to listen to other languages besides English. I tried Spanish and Portuguese (Br). It thought pedir (to request) was a flavor. I also asked for bread, water, and ch…

You’re saying that gamification is bad, and yet you hit a 2500 day streak. I would say, for what it’s worth, the gamification effects worked.

I’ve never read that letter before. The second half is pretty surreal.

Is that even a shortcut? I would have a hard time remembering that, compared to cmd + v.

Most catchy phrases can’t acutely articulate the meaning behind the message. People who argue to “defund the police” also mean use the funds meant to be distributed to the police f…

I’ve had to do a lot of my rides indoors due to the Seattle weather and drivers. There are times I don’t feel safe riding outside due to the lack of infrastructure. This is coming …

I’ve known plenty of people who will ask 1,000 questions about lifting before ever going to the gym. I think this app is great for people who are just getting into it, and want som…

Murder is just one crime. Take for example Wage Theft. Which accounts for as much as $50 billion a year ^1 (more than robberies). And yet, you won’t see cops arresting a manager at…

You could argue that those areas have more crime because they have a disproportionate amount of cops to observe crime.

I think the benefit to a holiday is that everyone gets it off and that’s maintained at the federal level, whereas more vacation is just a contract between you and your employer. Th…

You realize this shows the leadership team that there is worker organization. There isn’t a lot of tech unions, so we could see the ball rolling on this which could result in somet…

If that’s how your employer views your work, sounds like unions are in order. I don’t think workers should feel afraid of asking for better working conditions, and if workers are a…

To your first point, I think it’s a mistake to assume that the current situation is the natural result of our cities, where as it’s actually policy decisions that add up over time.…

> Rare as they may be, some people actually are writing detailed critiques of capitalism as an economic system. Good for them, even if I think they tend to be wrong more often than…

I believe they were just expressing their general frustrations with the hustle culture and how it’s geared towards everything in life.

Am I missing something, that seems like a decent prank. It’s harmless.

Steroids are illegal in most countries. You don’t win an award by sharing your illegal hobby in the open. For perspective, if a top pro shared their exact stack, there would be ton…

I’m mildly annoyed that the headline doesn’t know the difference between the two.

I don’t think bigger always needs to be more complex. For simplicity sake, a 10% tax on income would scale infinitely, no matter how big an economy grows (I’m not arguing in favor …
