Looks great and bring backs a lot of memories... I had to go back to https://skins.webamp.org/ for a nostalgia shot. I wish music had not move to stream, I think I appreciated each song much more when listening did not feel

I think it is okay to use AI to help you express your ideas better. I think the idea of AI acting as an "editor" reviewing my work and pointing out potential clarity issues is very helpful. In this scenario AI does not rewrite the

I heard this interesting quote about AI (paraphrasing): "We invented a cure for exercise, we should not be surprised later when we realize that we quickly run out of breath".

But it's not clear to me that the echo bubbles are not still there. I think the more important aspect is control. Who is making the decision is more important than echo bubbles are bad.

Social media is not the same product as social networks. It had value when you were in control of what content you wanted to see (your friends' posts). Now social media, controlled by algorithms, is just like a permanent informercial.

In Digital Ocean you can host up to 3 static sites for free, includes HTTPS, your own domain names and automatic deployment from GitHub repos. Look for their "app platform" https://www.digitalocean.com/community&#x

Also a hiring manager. I always do. For me a good personal site is a huge step towards a phone interview. I look for things people do not because anyone told them to do (college projects, internships, work), but because they were excited ab

Thank you for your contribution to the internet, now I don't need to google it every time :)

Great post, this is so true. We pay a lot of attention to the release emails we make. They are important documents that that explain the value proposition of the app. We often select 3 items and spotlight them in order of priority. So there

Someone having a lot of artificial "friends" algorithmically based on their behavior sounds more like a disorder than a desirable state. Something in-between schizophrenia and multiple personality disorder, but outside your brain.

I was in the same boat, but I started noticing that if I force myself not to do silly multitasking (like not paying attention to what I am doing because my mind is thinking about irrelevant other things) it gets better. Since I stopped the

We (me and my 8 year old) loved the Dungeon one and really enjoyed, as a carry-with-you-for-when-you-are-bored item. Also cool is their d6 pencil, so you can roll a dice without having a dice, very smart idea. I am really inspired by ideas

It's a sad realization. When our culture only values profit as a measure of success there is a strong incentive to cut down costs (now) in exchange for quality (that will only be perceived in the future). It slowly moves down the thres

This is very interesting, thanks for posting! Makes me think of the big choice diagrams in Detroit: Become Human. I wonder if there is any literature about this?

This type of scams prey on the ego of the target. In the attention economy everyone wants to project an aura of expertise. Someone interested in your expertise is just about the perfect bait. Literary agents, publishers, VCs, sponsorships,

I think the problem is the pressure to "monetize" projects that today's internet puts on everything: either monetize the attention (ads) or by generating expertise (the "personal brand"). Back then it was just for f

The Internet has a big discoverability problem now that search has a big advertising conflict of interests. The only way to find web "human" content is to rely on the curation of other humans. Funny enough mining those links is wh

One book in my to-read list is After the End of Art: Contemporary Art and the Pale of History by Arthur C. Danto. I hope it is going to hit this nail right in the head. https://press.princeton.edu/books/paperback/9
