Profound. 1/55k regarding wealth really diminishes the role wealth plays.

Ok it makes sense now. This is fasting.

Hey, cool! I'd simplify the page a lot. Right now it (impressively) feels like a full product, but I want to see it as more of a tool/fun thing. I'd cut back a lot and focus on the images. For example, right now, when you load the home page, there is not a single picture in sight.

I think the pricing is a bit odd because I imagine using this for one or two cars, not 3 or more. Maybe some would be willing to pay a couple bucks per car, so you could raise the prices, and make 3 focused tiers instead of 5.

There's something odd about the pictures too. The thumbnails don't look like toy cars, they look like (photographically) sharpened images. It's only when I open the full picture that I see the toy-car-ness. Not sure what you can do about that.

The backgrounds, too, don't scream 'toy-car'. I think it might feel more like a toy if you render it on a desk, on a hot wheels track, etc.

That is what I noticed, critically. Way to build something.

Hmm, a six-necked guitar called the Beast on the Altar. That's a little on the nose.

I found Kotlin easy to pick up, and use, but there are always complicated parts of it I haven't yet grokked. I'm sure a working knowledge of it is easy to obtain but I'm with you on the more dense pieces.

Unclear how to recreate that for the next generation. Taking away cell phones isn’t likely. More camping trips? Explicit trust extended to go dark?

Look up knees over toes guy - it's not regenerated hyaline cartilage, but if you're not familiar you _may_ find it interesting.

This is why the Sabbath matters (see a recent HN post of an article from the New Yorker). If not for intentional, ritual rest, we will accelerate and innovate and accelerate.

It's your system too. It helps keep all of us more safe, and more alive, than we would be without anything. If you succeed in tearing down our system, it will be a very bad time for everyone.

A drawing of a cup has 'cup-ness', as far as our mind is concerned. It's not about the micro mechanisms of edge detection or color or whatever, it's about how we recognize the quality of a cup in real cups and things that push the margins for what a cup is and in drawings of a cup.

Is it at all realistic to RV in this weather? I am curious what it would look like.

What about menu prices and the ability to comparison shop?

Any large group of people organized together for enough time forms a body - the body of tradition and regulation.

A large body of text is also known as a corpus.

Both the large groups and the large texts are dead in the sense that they do not change of their own power. They are static and closed to new information.

Both text and groups must be re-animated by the individual.

I have noticed my right eye twitch after working on the computer too long. I felt like my left brain had been dominant for too long.

Got a picture? Sounds cool
