Have you tried just saying you're a product manager instead of technical product manager? In my experience small changes in storytelling and self-marketing can create giant shifts in how you are perceived.

I would not trust OpenAI to retain my chats given that their model for what is a TOS-violating conversation evolves every week or every month.

Any outputs they generate that one finds useful need to be retained outside their walled-garden.

Current economic and political systems reward baseless confidence, believing you are better than others (and speaking and acting that way), and hubris.

So maybe it makes sense that our political and economic leaders have false confidence that "everything will be fine, it always has been for me".

Land in desirable areas seems to me to be a much more scarce resource than the inputs and labor that go into a vehicle, especially if you add time - aka decades to make such things cheaper. Not sure how time and technology can do the same for land ownership.

Doing so seems incredibly wasteful and pollution-generating. A filter pitcher like a Brita + a reusable water aluminum/glass/steel/whatever water bottle seems like it'd be a better substitute.

Yeah I think the like lowest end bread at an Italian grocery store is going to be way better than the lowest end "bread" at an American grocery store, but the difference is at the American store there is literally (I shit you not) 50-100 varieties of bread and a lot of them are decent (actually by a lot I mean like 4-10).

Probably due to eating out way more often and eating shitty cheap processed foods for the meals they do cook.

Actually if you look at Ariel Ekblaw's proposals in a different article / medium, many of her designs do involve the 'cellular'/'connected closed chambers' nature you describe. Highly recommend the Lex Fridman podcast interview linked in the other comment!

People upvote headlines these days (as a form of agreement) rather than articles. But you're right. This is on the extreme low end in terms of details.

Have you become more fond of / optimistic about Go (compared to other options) since writing the piece, less so, or similar?

Why isn't it weird? To me it's very weird. Why do we think a slightly better job opportunity will lead us to greater happiness than focusing on our personal relationships?

Have you tried a cursory Google search? I don't know if you refer specifically to the negative effects of microplastics in lungs or microplastic exposure in general, but a search for "microplastics human effects" will provide you with weeks of reading material if you'd like to be depressed.
