A few years ago I was talking to my aunt, a restaurant owner. I found out she wasn’t paying the tipped minimum wage for her area, but the non-tipped wage even though they did tips. I was complementing her on doing this, as it’s a good precedent to set and whatnot. Quickly realized the reason she was doing that was that she didn’t know there was a lower potential wage for tipped employees, so I quickly shut up and changed the subject, and didn’t accidentally screw over her employees.

Tips should become less of a thing and tipped wage should go away.

I got an email from OpenAI letting me know I won’t be a teenager anymore next week. It’s so exciting to have AI roll back my age by more than half!

I then looked at their age verification and it used that problematic company so I cancelled out.

I was going to say I feel like my smart home technology is working great.

Then I remembered that I have to make shortcuts to bridge two products, it fails half the time, my ikea bridge has to be restarted every 30 minutes, and my smart garage door opener takes 30 seconds to respond now.

So on second thought, yeah, this all sucks.

I’ll occasionally have PHPStorm use up all available memory, but it tends to go away after a restart of the app. And this is something that happens maybe a few times a year?

It didn’t take off because it was easier to eat the costs of fraud than to maintain the system. It didn’t catch on simply because it’s pro-consumer.

“Claude, remove the reference to Code in the pro plan everywhere on our website.” “Done” “You forgot this page.” “Done” “You also forgot this one”

Leaving out the optics and personalities and internal politics, the biggest issue I see is that they added this during the RC phase, which is against their policy. It should have been pushed to 7.1.
