About newyorker2
Comments reflect my own opinion unless stating facts or asking questions. I never participate in discussions because they increment/decrement a "points" counter in the DB entry associated with my account and always make a point to reply to everyone addressing me unless your comment is in bad taste, in which case I'll ignore you :)
Here are 2 pieces of advice since you're free enough to read random bios of "hacker" "news" profiles:
- Maintain a digital timeout every day.
- Respect the elderly and handicapped and practice gratitude in life.

It is strange that I read every article from the domain *.substack.com with a preliminary conclusion that it was either written directly by GPT-3 or influenced by it.
