    I was only working on this occasionally, but I built an extension to block sites in a more creative way. Basically I'm finding myself in a bind where: - I spend too much time dooms…

    I write a blog and have always avoided AI images for exactly the reasons cited here. AI images feel like a more cynical version of stock imagery, for some reason. I think it's actu…

    I'm offloading tons of my thinking to AI, and I don't like what it's doing to me. I think that I'm having trouble creating things on my own due to it, and tbh it's making me increa…

    TLDR built a Chrome site blocker that lets you into distracting sites only after you do some math or simple coding (JS only right now). Direct link to extension (the site just give…

    This is one of the craziest articles I've ever read. I feel like this should be a major ongoing news story...

    I'll make sure to wear my Juggalo makeup the next time I visit China to avoid their face scanning technology. That'll surely help me blend into the background.

    I don't know if I'm a crazy weirdo here but I find that talking to LLMs / using them for certain tasks that I find stressful improves my mental health.

    Typically not much, but in practice if you truly have a unique technical moat it's easy enough that I'd get a provisional patent in place just in case. I would start accumulating p…

    Seriously. Both because of the talent but also because wtf Mikey don't you want to draw a knight in shining armor or a cow or something.

    I've had a similar positive experience and I'm really surprised at the cynicism here. You have a system that is good at reading tons of literature and synthesizing it, which then a…

    Temperature and weather can have a huge impact on power prices. Small examples: * 90 degree day => more air conditioning usage => power goes up * 70 degree sunny day => that's also…

    Only slightly related, but I've found that traditionally brewed coffee and espresso give me a ton of anxiety. Tea, energy drinks, and even cold brew don't give me nearly the same l…

    I love how this guy founds + takes public + sells a multibillion company and then just goes right back to hacking. Legend.

    I'm a Giants fan. Although I didn't think it was possible, I somehow miss him even more.

    Thank you for adding some sanity to this discussion – this is ultimately a matter of economics, and the R&D effort to add and maintain these features is not trivial.

    So many great memories growing up playing this game decades ago, but you can still pick it up and have a blast. Counterstrike is a great example of a simplistic concept executed fl…

    I would still consider the glaucoma check. I don't think that you can even necessarily get a Flammer syndrome diagnosis, it's not a disease afaik, just a pattern. Glaucoma is the c…

    Just get the glaucoma check (I don't think that you can even necessarily get a Flammer syndrome diagnosis, it's not a disease). That's the condition that matters and if you don't r…
