"tradeoffs have to be made" is a great way to say that yes, you agree that instead of focusing on lowering health care costs, you think it's fine that people die because of them. I…

Unfortunately, these days, most of us won't do that because there is a high likelihood it could incite violence.

"And therefore, someone must decide what claims are reasonable." Yes, that person is MY DOCTOR. There is no world in which it is reasonable that my health care team says I should h…

No, mine are just bookmarks that I keep open because I'm too lazy to organize bookmarks into groups and always want this set open. For work, it's deep linked nonsense that isn't bo…

I'm in my 50s and all my friends and family hate AI. My parents in their 70s can't really comprehend it. They got used to search and want nothing to do with AI. Some company is try…

If I want AI, I'll use AI. If I want Search, I want Search. Give me the option. Then again I switched to DDG like, last year.

This actually reminds me of the MCP concept. Similar?

This may be regional but I just had pills. It was fine. My first one had that terrible salty liquid and I cannot stand the salt. I had a very hard time with it, despite adding some…

Anecdata: I use Apple News+ for exactly this reason. I get many publications included, and some magazines, and over time it learns what stories I like and surfaces those more often…

Was going to reply this - I have Walmart Pay and it's my credit card. I'm supremely annoyed because Walmart Pay still rather sucks. I have to scan a QR code which opens the app, th…

Not the person you're replying to, but for me, everything I buy on Amazon is bought because I have no B&M retailers that sell it. Even my local B&M stores usually have vastly reduc…

I used ChatGPT to find a bike for me. It asked good questions, recommended good results, linked me to options and the websites I needed to further research things. I don't do a lot…

I love this site - have you considered monetizing with like e-books or other offline offerings, if you don't already? Also, your traffic might not be counting those of us like myse…

Well 90% of my test code is AI generated, and we have a lot of tests. Also Cursor is really good at generating all my documentation. So depending on how we spin it, I could say at …

I don't go camping. I have had exactly one thing in my life that I can recall that the zipper broke on it. I think it really depends on what people are buying, how rough they are w…

I don't have much trouble with zippers, but I had a jacket where it broke. I had a tailor put on a new one.

As a user, I love Spotify. I would never discover new music in my more esoteric genres without it, and I would definitely never own ALL the artists I listen to. I'm certainly not g…

Ex–Google CEO Eric Schmidt: Competing with China’s grueling 12-hour workdays means sacrificing work-life balance

Let me know when Siri can do even the most basic things using natural language. It can't even properly answer things like "hey siri, is apple juice already on my shopping list" or …

This surprises me a lot. I spin up new react apps with vite often to replicate issues with 3rd party libs we use. Like how do they not know you can just spin something up over on C…

I agree here about the news. Anecdata: my Dad, who is in his 70s, was doing an awful lot of basically doomscrolling his news feed and just reading headlines like, all day. He was c…

I'm a mature woman, older than most of my colleagues. And I do this. I have reached an age where I don't care if it sounds childish. If I'm grumpy, I say so. It has nothing to do (…

More anecdata; my orange boy also thought he was the family dog. He was rather dumb as a rock, but sweet as pie. Loved every human or animal he ever met. My current cat is a calico…
