You can actually share any channel! It is a very hidden feature though. You have to link your kids account to yours, and then in the Youtube mobile app (not on the web), you can click the three dots button and then share > "with kid

True, though pg was talking to college students here, who are (presumably) mostly focused on classes, and have a stable living situation for 2-4 years until they graduate. That's why he says at the beginning that it's not a good i

Foods that decrease inflammation _probably_ help with arthritis; processed foods _generally_ increase inflammation, which is probably why you feel better not eating them. For more than just anecdotes you can go to the data/studies; pub

This is my exact setup and it's great. Several pros: - Relatively cheap since the a6000 is an older camera - The a6000 doesn't have the 30 minute hdmi limit that some other cameras have (this can be fixed with gphoto, but you have

I have a job at Google now While I was looking for a job I feel like I had a good chance at several types of companies; both startups and FAANGs viewed my independent time as a positive.

I was an employee, then did my own thing for 6 years, then recently went and got a job again. I felt no push-back at all for doing my own thing; in fact, I think it was a positive for most people. If it was only 6 months instead of 6 years

I bought a System76 desktop a couple of years ago with an rtx 3090 for some AI work and have been super happy with it. It was a bit expensive, but everything "just works", it's super well built, and I've had no issues fo

Worth noting that the expensive price isn't because of the metadata feature - it's a new version of the Leica M11 which is $8995 itself (Leicas are just crazy expensive)

Instead of a part time job, call yourself a "consultant" and say you have "1/2 of your time available". Companies are generally more likely to bring in a consultant/freelancer 1/2 time than an employee. (M

I did the same thing several years ago (left my job once I had 2 clients). I was also worried, but it turned out just fine. It's true that it will take a bit of work to get clients, but it becomes easier and easier as you go. Your curr

"Real World AI" by Alyssa Simpson Rochwerger and Wilson Pang is the best book I've read on AI for people in leadership positions - it gets just enough in the weeds to really explain what's going on while still staying hi

You probably found the Leica q2 monochrome, which is the option that costs a fortune but is probably the best monochrome only camera on the market right now. If you're just getting back into photography after awhile though, then I wou

Using an rtx 3090 (NVIDIA gpu with 24GB of RAM): Mini = 5.33 s Mega = 14.7 s Update: about 1/2 that time is just loading the model, so if you load the model and then generate multiple images, it drops to: Mini = 3.91 s Mega = 8.86 s

Call it “consulting” and say you have room for a part time client. It will take some work (use your network, job boards, manually reach out to companies), but you will find something. It helps to have a strong portfolio or proof that you kn

The tricky thing about this question is that a great company for one person could be a terrible company for another, and vice versa. Based on your description, it sounds like you're looking for a smaller company where the CEO is techni

Call yourself a consultant or freelancer, and make it clear you're looking for part time clients. I generally do either 20 hours/week (billed monthly), or per project billing (which can be as many or as few hours as you want). As

Yes, that's true; like you say, no one even quite knows how SSRIs work, so this looks promising! Hopefully future studies show similar effects without some of the SSRI side effects

This seems to be combining a couple of studies; the primary one seems to be 40 people over 6 weeks using the petals of saffron (but in another place said "leaves", so I'm not sure which is correct), but it's interesting

That's an interesting angle to cash out... just start sending to 1,000s of addresses - who's to say which addresses are owned by the criminals, and which are owned by other people? They'd get less than cashing it all out them
