And that's one of the risks of moving to a new city, and arguably one of the risks you take when you commit a crime worthy of jail.

As for the new city risk, you take that risk with the potential upside it could bring, but everyone will be wary. People new to a city are a risk because of all the reasons they might've left an old city.

I went to your site to check this out, and I found the bright orange from the first slide was killing my eyes, and my coworkers. The other landing page slides were great, the first one made me want to leave.

Overall looks like a great tool that I'll look into for my next projects.

For my org, it meant we could trial classifiers across various internal systems with little to no engineering effort. In one case we ended up building our own classifier instead of Jev, but in others we kept Jev because it was zero-effort for a great impact.

How is it shitty behaviour. "I are hiring 10 people, we won't remove the job listing until 10 people are hired."

I can confirm, I sent their sales team an email asking for ZDR, and they provided it within an hour.

I think it's about the comment you wrote, or rather that AI (appears to have) written entirely.

In what world is 10x US GDP, 3-4x US Marketcap, or 60x the US annual tax collection the requirement for investor expectations?

I would ask, where is the line drawn between 'enjoyment and addiction.'

Is it the harm provided? Then what do we count as harm, and where is the line.

IE, There's no one stopping me from eating unhealthy, IE sugary foods, which are heavily addictive. I ride a motorbike, and I'd consider myself addicted to that, and it's got a high chance of harm, but we don't ban those. Ditto with gaming, social media, hobby XYZ.

I personally think the freedom to choose your vice is reasonable.

I think the major issue is, people still have the option of those older forms of feeds, people just don't like them.

New social media competitors (ie Tiktok) have won users by having even more powerful algorithms rather than other options.

You seem to be posting your project/startup constantly under others people's comments/posts.

Genuine question, did you put work into distribution so people knew about it first?

I've known a bunch of people who have said 'blogging is dead' but that's often shared with a lack of sharing the work in the first place or sharing it.

Health isn't a 'perfect or your unhealthy' it's much more of a 'Make the better option, most of the time' in which, similar to the original comment, I am quite happy that the chocolate I can have a treat with has less calories but feels identical in levels of being a treat.

I'd pay the same for chocolate bars that were half the size if they were easily available.

Yeah but SMS is also a paid product in most places, same with phone calls, and data too, but given most places (Schools, your home, work, libraries) pay for wifi, platform provided messaging is free.

Not that the addictive apps are great, but if we're talking locking, it's deciding between 'paying for' and 'receiving for free' with lock in being constant

Is it really that different from being locked into SMS or Email or Teamspeak or Skype?

I hate using SMS, but I'm forced to due to people I know using it, and it's 'openness' changes nothing for me as the end user.

> Are you in favor of Apple removing everyone from the App Store?

You make the assumption that it's not in everyone's best economic interest to follow the rules. People will change before they are all removed.

> Apple created a developer API to request ratings and reviews. Apple 100% approves of and encourages the practice. Indeed, Apple's own apps in the App Store request ratings and reviews.

And they added various limitations to this API to prevent bad actors, which clearly is being worked around by enough apps that it makes sense to enforce this more.
