I don't feel sorry for Google, nor the big amounts of PR nonsense they're putting out there in order to try to spin their being too slow to move LLM tech to the side of the consumer. Get better or get out.

I agree wholeheartedly, but I think this phenomenon is to be expected. I don't know any more about the founder of Whole Foods than I do about the founder of Target, nor is it really relevant to me as a consumer. All the vast majority o

Trello is such a fantastic tool, I use it every single day. It has stood the test of time for me, unlike Evernote, Clipboard and many others. This is fantastic news, kudos to the Trello team.

It looks great, modern and slick. Somebody else mentioned the fact that you guys are coming out with something that'll take users out of the console. Can you elaborate on that?

I saw SV's first episode and found it overly boring. I got the jokes and even got a couple of chuckles here and there, but the show as a whole is not worth the hype it currently has behind it. I'll keep watching, however, hoping t
