Great idea. The things available to give parents controlled access to music aren't great. Echo (Dot) + Kids+ seems to be the closest to meh on the speakers--the kids devices like Yoto are too limited (or require…
This. Seems like you could wedge this and a model into a scrappy version of computer use for browsers. Fwiw, thanks for contributing this. It seems apt for a number of repetitive things I probably do dozens of times a…
I too save information that may have future value in a textfile. I too am managing knowledge!
Calling this a lifestyle business seems off. I'd wager for most, these are livelihood businesses; lifestyle sounds more of an affectation. Or, more simply, these are small businesses, full stop. We have a working term…
Indeed. While dr==cr gets you far towards being able to calculate account balances and an entity's aggregate financial position, it's also fairly foundational that you are able calculate the company's position with…
Well said. It's actually not complicated or arbitrary. It also works effectively in practice over the gdp of the known universe. If you are savvy enough to be interested in and understand the different computing…
Claude says (or, tl;pillm): Q. How well--perhaps on a scale of 1 to 10--does this essay follow its own recommendations? Is it a great essay by its own standards? A. The essay "The Best Essay" does follow many of its own…
It's because there are two ways to sync content across devices, paid sync through Obsidian vs. git. Given sync is a p0 feature, it seems logical that both get mentioned when the question arises. Also, the app's really…
You could browse the fiction shelves at a local bookseller; they may have things approximating what you seek.
911s aren't really about the straight lines. You can get a reasonably equivalent performing car for well less than half the price of the SC, so factor in that at least half the car's value comes from scarcity due to low…
Timberborn is great, worth a try. You'll be stressing about droughts in no time.
Definitely a demand issue. Sure, there are secondary supply-side effects, but the simple truth is what we see today is what captures available demand. There is no other domain where you find that Americans are willing,…
To me, it sounds a lot more like "not using screens as a default babysitter." Support. Who cares if it's sustainable at 10+? If you get ten years of low threshold screen time for your kids, you've done well. You've…
W/ my obsidian setup, the note's name equalst its headline and I don't do a ton of linking for the sake of linking. I like to pick folders of broad realms or topics. But the act of creating a new note is no different…
Logseq is well done. I ended up using it for about a month but then went to Obsidian -- I ended up realizing I like to use outliner mode for certain types of notes, but found Obsidian to be better for straight writing.…
Same. Although paying for Sync makes mobile workable. But the combo of the base too, available plugins, and a large, active community combine to be among the best of the various capture tools out there.
I'd recommend exploring Obsidian. It's inherently self-hosted : it's just local markdown files (but you can sync via git or their for-pay sync service). The plugin community is large and it has some of the best…
I like that Snow Crash doesn't take itself too seriously. Reamde was also a not too heavy Stephenson read.
The IRS can't even provide a simple reliable service to verify a TIN; they're not getting into the IVE game.
The 20,000 families benefitting from housing in the Seattle metro area as a result of Amazon's investments in the community might define charitable vs. non-charitable differently than you. I've personally met the women…
Can there be endless meetings about whether your issues are top or bottom of funnel?
Curious why AGPL was the optimal license choice? As a license, it will preclude a number of the same companies that would want to run it on-premise for data security reasons. (Some large companies that might have the…
This is the first book I recommend to anyone who wants to improve their writing. With Minto's Pyramid Principle as a follow-on. My top 3: 1/ Edit ruthlessly. Every single word is reduced to its simplest form and pulls…
Even if they're at 0% done in terms of what happens after you connect to a digital world via immersive conduits, $10B a year can put a dent in that burndown.
The companies paying Kail know enough to never mention this to anyone else at Netflix. They know what they are doing. And this is why it is common in industry--it's commonly undetectable, and, sadly, that alone will…
