"make me sound more sincere!"

This is eerily similar to the Enron business model... @.@

All of these provide synergy.

I've been having a difficult time explaining why E2E encryption is, well, almost a moral imperative...

Your metaphors, etc.., have made it easier. TYVM <3

There's "topical" chemo for some stuff, but it's uncommon. Most chemo is either in pill form, or (as was for me) delivered intravenously. So it goes through the whole body.

Radiation therapy can target specific areas. It's still used instead of chemo in some cases.

For me, they cut out most of a giant tumor, but couldn't get all of it without risking some vital organs. Then I got chemo for the rest. Interesting process.

Usually the cancer cells are concentrated where the tumor is. One of the first things they may do upon diagnosis of cancer is a PET scan (which shows you where cancerous stuff is throughout your body).

Life advice for all the young folks: don't get cancer.

I check my bank account every week or so. If it's above 0, I consider it a win.

Wish I was kidding :/

I tried YNAB and it was too cumbersome. If I were to try again, I'd go for some low-tech Exel option.

"Peanut Gallery" here... These types of conversations are the reason I'm still addicted to HN.

Thank you both. And /hattip

It's possible OpenAI doesn't get any money; and they just provide whatever "AI service" is being requested of them, and returns the results to Dropbox.

And, well, if OpenAI just happens to gain access to a trove of data by providing the service... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don't think this is dystopia at all. Many of your points are valid, and I believe that far too few people consider them.

From their FAQ: "We'll never sell your information to anyone and we don’t use your personal health information to market or advertise other products available on Amazon.com."

If I were... Evil... I would have chosen the word "don't" instead of "won't", so Amazon could change their mind on some arbitrary day, delete the part that says they don't use it for marketing... and just like that... tens of thousands of Alexas are advertising herpes meds at inconvenient times.

Data breaches are also a bit more... concerning... with medical information.
