educate yourself a bit before calling others dumb. There is a LOT of evidence that (most) screen time, especially addictive tech like a smartphone, is bad for children. Especially their mental health. I'm sure it's bad…
then I suppose you and everyone you know has basically broken their brain with toxic social media. Or similar? my spouse and I (30s) had no problem sitting through the new Spider-Man movie without opening up our phones.
don't think $150-$400 is "REALLY" expensive for an air purifier. it's certainly on the higher end but nothing outrageous. There's plenty of higher end, actually really expense stuff out there. Austin Air is $$$ (but…
Well, it's not strictly about baby, but in general there's lots to keep track of. my spouse had a vaginal delivery and had some tearing. So she goes to pelvic floor therapy for that. Once a week. She's also a…
i'd argue any parent, especially of a young child, could use 20 personal assistants lol. So that's just false. There's SO many appointments to keep track of in baby's first year of life, and that's if you have a healthy…
I'd like to prevent my children from viewing / modifying certain parts of the home. Is that so niche?
have you looked at the process for becoming a singapore citizen? It's EXTREMELY selective. There's a reason they have great cohesion. The ICA says it considers factors including family ties to singaporeans, economic…
You're correct, if we're being pedantic. But will you be hired to do video editing on a tablet? REAL work like for a media company or movie studio? No. ipad skills are mostly irrelevant if your goal is to be employable.…
They’re not purposely cozying up to china, they are just short sighted. like all US policies and politics. china is playing a loooooong game. we are trying to win this quarter, this year, etc.
So you’re saying if I pointed an LLM, say GPT 5.6 Sol, at a PDF copy of a textbook and asked it questions about something i’m stuck on and don’t understand, it wouldn’t be able to teach me anything? learning is not a…
> But isn't that "burden" on others always going to be there, whether you or AI wrote it? That's what communicating is... No. People earn a reputation over time. An AI does not. If you copy paste an AI response…
i’m not an anti-AI believer. And our career is changing dramatically no doubt. i just think people overestimate short term gains and underestimate long term gains. (applicable to your comment) In this case i had no…
just the other week I asked Fable 5 to diagnose the cause of some intermittent latency spikes on an API that queries an OpenSearch cluster at work. I encouraged it to look at the datadog metrics, splunk, the whole…
is there an alternative to codex that “just works”? by just works i mean i can install as an app in 1 minute, and i get web search, skills, mcp servers, etc? Bonus points if it can control my chrome tabs like codex can,…
i have not tried it since i’m too scared to try, but i know Codex recently came out with a feature where it can control your chrome browser. Not spin up a chrome browser, but control your open browser tabs. Presumably…
apparently a tight knick family with open / great communication does not exist, and they must be abusive if they like to know where their kids are. LOL. Yes horrible families exist. the fact that you can’t imagine a…
> I would think that the useful notification would be “Erica didn’t make it to school safely”. That’s an excellent point actually. 100%. I don’t think FindMy can support something like that today which is unfortunate. I…
well it’s a device that can be smart in some crucial ways, without being distracting like a smartphone is. That’s what i mean. no social media or other cancer for a teenage brain. But it has useful apps for day to day…
and i totally respect that point of view. but do realize that every family is different for better or worse, and has a different “culture”. I’m not prescribing how others should run their families or what a good life…
you’re correct - that’s the purpose of the Find My app. And this app can send useful notifications.
nitpick: the “where is erica?” is a catchy title for the feature being showcased - which is actually a notification that your child made it to school safely. Look at the screenshot closely (i don’t think you did).…
feeling sorry for single children is just weird, not going to lie. I was a single child. Yes i had many boring days as a toddler. I’m not a sad adult because of that, i’m happily married and expecting my 1st soon. One…
What type of silly response is that? And I could say the U.S. takes over countries like cuba and turns off their power. We’re definitely the good guys LOL. Look, I live in the U.S. but i’m not stupid about what we do.…
what you say about your desires makes perfect sense. I too would enjoy that kind of world. But how do you envision that playing out in reality? Would you just nicely walk up to the White House and ask them to pass a law…
the bigger issue is context windows. HUGE difference there.
