For me : 1. Makes the input easy - use familiar tool of choice -> WhatsApp/Telegram/etc 2. Integrate with anything - for example gmail through gog 3. Save to memory without prompti…

Is this really the right paper. It's from May 2024.

Ownership is one thing. If the company believes in a cause and everybody in the company is truly working towards that cause, it may be equally, if not more, fulfilling. Does your c…

It is unavoidable for the kind of article the author is writing. He is trying to give the perspective of a person who has 'been there'. This I imagine is very interesting to read f…

I think the point was that for a lot of people the settings are more productive than if they were left to their own devices.

That sentence was followed by 'Life could be a struggle for survival with hard work and adversity at every corner. Marriages were arranged by parents and if, after 20 years, the co…

To some people, the pain of letting the money go is greater than the perceived benefit of the product/service they get in return for the money, most of the time. You can imagine su…

I alternate being a hacker and non-hacker. When I'm in the hacker mode I read almost everything here. Then I go into non-hacker mode maybe for a few months or years when I come her…
