Cleaning also wears down the head over time. I’m not saying they should fail that fast, but cleaning too often also isn’t recommended.

I think the idea with having a personal assistant / house help / cleaner is that you spend money so you can be doing more of what you like to do (and/or to some extent also what makes money). If you already enjoy everything in your life, you shouldn't hire one.

I'm also curious if you 'died at Burning Man' if you're attending BM, fell ill, made it to a hospital and then died.

Is that alone really a better metric? At least in Europe a lot of people travel during holidays, so there's less risk breaking into city flats because they're empty.

That's the whole point, before they would only need to do it on the fourth day of sickness, now you need to go to a doctor on the first day. More workload for doctors and either sick people coming to the office infecting others, or getting the whole week off immediately.

I have the same sentiments, but I also get a lot of value out of simple things like memory for long-term project planning and task management. I'm willing to commit to one provider right now with the assumption that memories (and now routines) can be ported within a few hours to a new provider (for example Claude Desktop provides a prompt to export memories from other providers). Also the memory being human readable (markdown files) makes me worry less about lock-in.

It complements https://nuclearsecrecy.com/nukemap/ nicely. As someone not living in the US, I'd find it interesting to at least have some other non-US cities available in the free plan though.

Did anyone see a price mentioned? It would be nice to have a travel router that just plugs into your UniFi network.

I got gifted Computer Engineering for Babies and big Babies last Christmas in preparation for having our first child :) They are great!

Being on the receiving side of that can be very frustrating. Even though users can cancel easily and without any human interaction, they cancel their credit card which then costs us multiple months of revenue in cancellation fees.

Instead of allowing 24 hours, I prefer to agree on a start time with the candidate, schedule the email to go out at that time and expect to receive the reply two hours later. That way everyone has the same amount of time.
