Is that a tongue in cheek reference to my inadvertently weird capitalization of wildcat as WildCat — no idea why I did that, maybe a throwback to my ThunderCats fandom of my youth.…

Is it similar to WildCat banking?

Isn’t this related to financial nihilism where normal people can’t invest or earn enough to grow money for basic life costs like housing and college with standard investments or jo…

I am ride or die Good Place; my family has the Trolley Problem party game. Don’t spoil it if you haven’t seen it. But honestly I feel the Darkest Timeline is more apt, ala Communit…

A friend of mine from back home mentioned he hadn't heard anything about the White House UFC fight because he's solely focused on himself right now. Honestly, I think that’s becomi…

I agree the 1TB is a good deal. But our phones are Apple and our email is Google, so it’s all wonky sync via OneDrive (and when you have a lot of OneDrive the forced syncs to your …

Did Apple pay them to drop support to boost their revamped Numbers/Pages/Keynote suite (ClarisWorks Infitniy.0). Obviously this is a joke, though there was a period when Microsoft …

I actually regularly used emdashes in my writing —- my kids complain I write like AI in fact — and now I have to consciously remove them. Likewise, I often used literary flourish a…

I thought post Netflix the model had switched to “we’re a team, not a family” — like in MLB? https://variety.com/2017/digital/news/netflix-company-cultur...

Not just “experts”. Legal ETHICS professors at Stanford.

Yeah saving statements is important but banks make it so hard to automate. 2FA for login, and statements have to be navigated to, sometimes time range set. My bank just sends a not…

Maybe I misread it but it’s like Apple Pay on a MacBook. You query 1Password to open in the Mac/PC and a prompt shows up on your phone and you auto with PIN/FaceID which then unloc…

But as number of miners drop arent btc at risk of a 50% attack?

I often hear on podcast such as this one giving career advice that folks should become AI native, and improve their AI skills. I’m not a software developer, so I am not using Claud…

Very on brand for our darkest timeline, if you excuse the mixed media metaphor.

The bantering of the podcast I found distracting and the breathless enthusiasm. I guess there was a way to make it more no nonsense? I found I lost content if tuned for brevity.

Oh I thought it was a very dodgy process. Can you give some pointers? I will also ask an LLM?

I don’t think I have ever spent over $100 on a Chromebook. I can’t imagine putting serious money in one; it’s a toy/disposable computer.

I really dislike the “expiration” date, and at one point they were very short (5 years) and poorly documented so it was a nasty surprise if you got an older model on sale.

I’m not in AI, but what is happening is that it is building output from the long tail of its training data? Instead of branching down the more common probability paths, something i…

That was more an issue when rates were low and borrowing capital was “free”.

How is safety and quality for Chinese EVs? There was the 2008 melamine baby formula scandal, where a toxic substance was deliberately introduced into baby formula for domestic mark…

Honda is an engine company at its heart. It makes very reliable, long lived engines. They refine technology not really invent it (maybe invented VTEC). The transition to EV will be…

I know this is worthwhile, especially with the rise in colorectal cancer in younger adults, perhaps this will help in early detection. But I did take a double take and go “Is it Ap…
