In my experience, Apple phones are pretty good at not being obsolete. I gave my old iPhone X to my father who's still using it, 9 years later, with software updates to iOS. Compare…

That’s a bit of a strawman argument. Most journeys don’t consist of three children and all their sporting equipment. As a practical example, in the UK, on average a young g child l…

What I've observed, is that 90% of journeys people make can be done without a car. Designing a city that helps people make those journeys car free, makes it better for the 10% of j…

Yep exactly, it removes a whole class of potentially problems. Doing the sending myself wouldn't improve my digital sovreignty, which is my primary motivation.

With self hosting email, if the digital sovreignty aspect is more important to you than the privacy aspect... What I do is use gmail with a custom domain, self host an email server…

I never sign up for subscriptions anymore without using a virtual card. Once I've paid the yearly fee, I immediately cancel the card. When it comes to renew, they'll be very keen t…

The use cases in their videos are interesting, I suppose the world we live in is build for humans, so it makes sense to build a robot that is human shaped. So we don't need to buy …

It's also a lot easier to invest in compliance when you've already got product-market-fit in the regulation light US.

In Europe certainly, it’s very expensive to get anything close to what you’re describing in a hotel. Just having a separate living room and bedroom in your hotel can be hundreds mo…

The charity you’re raising for sets up the infrastructure to do the activity. Charities, for example, have spots in marathons which are hard to get other wise. So if you see a frie…

Paying train workers what they are demanding is expensive
