'oil priests'?

yeah but not mainstream and it needs accessories and is probably more for teaching schools.

I would love to see all of this in a free/paid marketplace and with a basic learning progress framework behind it.

Training critical steps before actually doing it.

If its good enough, you can train cutting a 1000 onions without cutting 1000 onions.

With complex machines, you can learn how to control them and than focus on actually using them instead of first learning were all the buttons are.

I would really love to see proper educational content from Meta but i bet this is not were the 'next money thing' is.

Imagine a catalog of proper real life skills you can actually train reasonable good:

- cooking - soldering - welding - Tons of woodworking things - ...

You could also go to a lot of makers of tools and offer them to digitalize their products for them so someone can actually exercise with a cheap to super high end machine like specific CNCs or table saws etc.

'really succeeded' sounds super crazy dismissive.

Besides android being gigantic huge, you still have google maps, chrome, gmail, pixel phones, passkey, yubikeypush/2fa, the new cookie aproach, YouTube!!1 etc.

Why would Google need a 'recent' success to be able to win ar snail?

I'm still here to create a product/tool/script/solve something and not just to write code.

If anything i do helps to make the ecosystem around me better i'm for it.

And if you look at anything LLM right now, all the research happening, its not opensource doing the research. Its high paid google, ms, etc. people and academy replicates it fast for opensource.

We already have a give and take on both sides.

Without them, we would not have that at all.

Because you get to use it too?

Llama, mistral and co.

There is no reason at all to assume that the blog post was put in place to put google reader in a better light.

And the original comment is weird anyway. Google had billions of views with and without google reader.

The normal person doesn't use a RSS Reader at all. Even in my nerdy / tech group not everyone uses one.

Feedly apparently hast 15 million users across the world.

I have the feeling that we have now so much more music than ever before, the speed people diverse into their unique directions will happen faster than before.

When kids can already listen to everything through smartphones, there is less and less need to listen to one of the few radio stations playing the same everytime.

MTV is dead for a while as well. So YT and co.

Alone platform diversity is high

I often enough formulate sentences in the language i'm writing.

And plenty of times i remembered a word only in english but not in german.

Like a few month back i was looking at an escalator and though mmmhh escalator whats the german word for it? Took me ages to remember Rolltreppe

Is your mother tonge english? Because i do not think that just having learned a language will help you here a lot. I speak english at my workplace every day while am a german in germany.

He thinks about those types of things and are acting on it (which is the key point in my opinion) because he is someone who thinks about those types of things.

I think thats a very good attitude.

I work in a big software company with 100k and i get asked about stuff from people.

But i'm seen as knowledgeable and my manager basically lets me completly alone doing my thing and gives me all benefits regarding salary he can to keep me.

Knowing more languages also helps and could be the same effect:

The more interconnections you have, the more you can compensate.

A bike can be reached through different types of bikes, different names of bikes, different experiences with bikes.
