I find myself uninstalling every app unless I really need it and use it. It's amazing how many apps just sit around in your life over time. get them off your phone

All I think when I see this is "this intelligence wasted on finance and ads." Can you imagine human potential if it was somehow applied to crop harvesting efficiency, new medicines, etc? Not everything has to be perfectly efficien

ZBiotics is a really exciting biotech startup that makes a GMO probiotic that digests Acetaldehyde, a byproduct of alcohol consumption that is a large part of hangovers. Personally think they reduce the effect of drinking by about 40%. www.

I like the guy, he seems like a genuine technologist / hacker. I wish him well. None of the things he has worked on are any good so far. Objectively nobody actually uses this stuff. My definition: nobody would choose this stuff at arms

This is interesting, but not great Japan advice. I just went and had a blast and did the opposite of his advice. I think people are different and want different things and don't feel bad if you just want to see the standard Japan check

The founders are done with each other and long gone. It's just a financial entity maximizing profit. It's amazing to watch the full circle of Google's brilliant birth to slow plateau.

We bought some children's sized coat hangars off Amazon and used a lead testing kit on them. They popped positive for lead :( No name brand from China. I wonder what else in our lives might have lead in it..

Gosh, it's amazing how they just refuse to make this tool powerful. Still can't set a custom date range, or add technical indicators. I mean these are like 2003 requirements for a decent site let alone 2020. Just off the top of my

Another reason to love Puerto Rico and move here - our time zone, Atlantic Standard Time, has no daylight savings. All my fist shaking at the clouds in EST/EDT, welp, I solved it!

Puerto Rico! If you are a US citizen you can just get up and move here. Lots of videos on YouTube to describe what it’s like and what it’s like to move here.

I live on the beach. Like actually I wake up and there it is staring at me in bed, my porch is covered in corrosion and salt air persists everywhere. It may be an invention but a few years into living here damned if it isn't one of the

I think the salt water even for brief periods even surrounded and raised up a few feet by bouys is a corrosive disaster. Maybe reusable a few times but not the long term solution if they want to reuse them 10's / 100's of tim

I was sitting at my cubicle not sure what to do in 2005 and read his essays and it crystallized some vague feeling I'd had. I am not completely sure it made the difference, but it definitely helped me get going. I quit my good job, sta

My favorite thing to do was to detect a bot and then show the bot a parallel dataset I'd developed of bogus information. Instead of hitting a block and working its way around it, competitors scraped a bunch of slightly warbled nonsense

I did a big project to remove myself. It’s a slog. You do a ton of passes, each time you get a little more and escalate your approach with lazy vendors. GPDR can help on the last couple of ones. There are 1-2 spots that I can’t ever remove,

I think one issue is that, like VR, one bad actor sours the consumer appetite for the entire concept. I think a safer road for GM is to become the de facto A+ supplier of tech that works well than for 2/3 of the legacy industry to have
