More like an accessibility setting that has widespread utility (there are several others, e.g. iOS has built-in background noise generators in accessibility) That said, tapping on the back of the phone didn’t register consistently enough fo

A funny scene in 30 Rock is when Tracy learns about the Peter Principle and responds "but my incompetence knows no bounds!"

Gary is an insufferable blowhard but he's had skin the AI game for awhile. I believe he sold an AI startup to Uber back in the 2010s. Many of his criticisms of OpenAI and LLMs have been apt.

I’m not familiar with any stores that have Jordans that can be purchased via self checkout.

It's from a 10+ year-old blog post so I wouldn't expect it to be in line with modern psychotherapy. It's an insight that has stuck with me since then and seems to strike a chord with others when shared, regardless of whether

If you introduce a process susceptible to credit card fraud then you're not keeping it low stakes.

OP addresses this directly, if you bothered to read the whole thing: "The stakes should be low. Whatever you’re selling, it’s gotta be cheap. And if things go awry? No one’s going to launch a chargeback crusade. Just like a reliable ve

I'm reminded of a passage from the last psychiatrist blog: “One of the great insights of psychoanalysis is that you never really want an object, you only want the wanting, which means the solution is to set your sights on an impossible

I just don't agree (aside from the part about small towns, I guess, but that's not relevant to SF). If OP can't find differing personalities in a place like SF, it's a skill issue, sorry to say.

Sounds like you're thinking inside of a fairly small bubble. If you picked 10 people, at random, from the 800k residents, I assure you that there would be substantial differences. Off the top of my head, you might get SF State students

Cable TV (or even OTA antenna in the right service area) is simply a superior live product compared to anything streaming. The Masters app is the only thing that comes close imo. Cable TV + DVR + high speed internet for torrenting is still

Oh man, the BLK360 can be a frustrating (albeit incredible) device even in the best of conditions, let alone this. Glad to hear everything survived! I mostly use the Pro3 now but did a big chunk of this Georgia Tech scan with the BLK: http

Definitely one of the better implementations I've seen using Matterport's SDK, nice work. Did you use the Pro3 as the capture device? Before the collapse anyway!

An educated populace can better resist such issues. The solution is better journalism/reporting and better education. Instead, the knee jerk reaction seems to be calling for further hollowing out of public education and less investment

They famously had a standoff with the US gov't over the Secure Enclave. Marketing aside, all indications point to the iOS platform being the most secure mobile option (imo).

While I fully agree with you that crating is to be avoided and I'd never do it - I can see some evolutionary parallel. My husky loves to settle in corners/L-shapes, and a crate is not so different than a small cave/den whic

You could produce this using one of several 360° cameras (e.g. Ricoh Theta, Insta360 X3) for the images, and then using 3D Vista to create the tour experience, embedded media, etc.

Seemed pretty clear to me. Drones are a dime a dozen. Drone defense is disproportionately costly. This product's goal is to protect from drone attacks without wasting a bunch of million-dollar missiles. Regardless of one's feeling
