All those guys. Also, the daily visits to lnkedup.com k10k.net, designiskinky.com, newstoday.com were so influential and informative to me (wow, just did an archive.org lookup of some of those and got a nostalgic chill - https:/&#x2F

+1 for linear.app. It's somewhat similar in feel to PT. It's very responsive and has vim style key bindings. We switched a year ago and haven't looked back.

This is a great point and I think the crux of it is - is ML going to be like the last crypto 'boom'? I don't think it is. Investment is being made at an institutional level in a way that was not happening for crypto. We are d

There is a lot in this piece taken from Boom, but this article paints GoGo in a much worse light. It more or less says he's unscrupulous when it comes to the source of money (Russian Oligarch's) being used to buy art. It also ma

I've owned and sold several homes that I've renovated and they always fetch a premium. Recently I sold an apartment in a complex with 1200 units - so comps are widely available. The sale happened in a matter of hours with 6 way-o

> * To overtake a slower vehicle, the Megane and i4 are better : simply push the left blinker, then the car switch lanes and accelerates BEFORE having entirely switched lane, like a human driver would do. Teslas do this in FSD mode.

The market is rigged by an industry(ies) (auto, oil) to develop society in its favor. Without a major 'refactor', the US doesn't have a chance at efficient urban design that would support individual use transport.
