It kind of sounds like you want to automate small talk. I think we need to have less tech, not more, if we're trying to solve this problem.

This is my experience as well. Whenever I !g as search, it is usually in desperation. I can’t remember the last time I found something on Google I couldn’t on Kagi.

I'm pretty skeptical of the safety as well. It's also pretty hard to judge where there don't seem to be any actual photographs of the vehicle, only computer renderings.

I would love a small truck like this, but I would honestly buy an old Tacoma or Ranger before even considering buying this on spec.

*edit: digging around I did find some footage on YouTube with actual vehicles. I'm definitely skeptical on the safety now.

Ive never understood the drive to make meat substitutes instead of celebrating vegetarian cuisine. I’m not a vegetarian, but if I eat some dish that is vegetarian, why wouldn’t I want to celebrate the vegetable itself made from instead of trying to make some fake meat that never quite hits the mark?

Data in the aggregate is quite interesting and probably of little value to marketers.

You have to weigh it.

I mean, wouldn’t this be measured by actual threat model and just “vibes” or whatever?

I just leave restaurants that have gone to the online-only menu. It's usually an indicator that there are other terrible cuts in service and quality going on as well.

It's a fixed-price contract, so Boeing is out $1.5 billion on this.

I’m not sure that this is something that scales. Online reviews seems to attract only the worst in mass media (e.g., gamed reviews, complaint box for influencers who don’t get “VIP” treatment).

The traditional restaurant reviewer filled this role much better. His role as a trusted arbiter was closer to what people want from a site like Yelp, but it’s very labor intensive and obviously doesn’t scale.

Honestly, I was pretty happy with my iPhone 3G.
