I do this and love this! I keep an older iPhone because it allows you to make these kinds of taps. It's also fun to show people how to make their own haptics. Way less looking at my phone, and more living.

Is there a note about glyphosate here? I don't see it.

FINALLY.

Just like with "automatic checkout systems" at a grocery store. Passing the labor onto the individual, vs. the expert. We don't even get the same infrastructure professionals get. A PLU for a piece of fruit is a mind-blurring whisk of hands over a dial pad for a pro, and a bit of mind-numbingly arduously piss-poor series of taps for the ill-positioned entrant.

That's a great way to use it!

Excited to see this. I've really been enjoying Claude. It feels like a different, more creative flavor of experience than GPT. I use Claude a lot for dialogues and exploring ideas, like a conversational partner. Having web access will add an interesting dimension to this.

I love it when you post about Mark, Don. Thank you for this!

It was truly magical. I went to as many of them as possible.

The bright blue light of flat, rectangular touch screens, fans, and displays may be appealing from an aesthetic perspective, but there is a deeper story behind the scenes.

Super exciting. Have been wanting to see this for years. Great job, Esri!

I think OpenAI has done great work in advancing the field of AI and developing powerful tools like GPT-3. At the same time, I also believe that it's important to ensure that the development of AI systems is as inclusive and diverse as possible.

While OpenAI currently has a team of skilled engineers, I think it could benefit from hiring individuals with from different social classes and backgrounds (like blue collar workers, historians, anthropologists and artists) to contribute to the development of AI systems. This could help to create more well-rounded and effective AI solutions that consider a wider range of perspectives and potential impact on individuals and society.

We played a game in high school that I called "The Root is Right!" We'd take turns coming up with crazy numbers for each other to estimate in our heads. Then we'd draw little pictures of prizes for the person closest to the real root. We all got super good at estimating roots!

We used a lazy version of Heron’s method, which was just to memorize a bunch of general number roots, and then average our guesses based on closeness to that root. It ended up being as easy as mental math around tipping at a restaurant. It definitely came in handy for engineering classes later on!

Excited to see more articles about this appearing on HN!

I do. I started during the pandemic. I used to give speeches a various conferences and write books before, but there’s more than enough gig work in crypto now that I can work for several DAOs at a time. It’s a lot different, and there are rarely meetings. Most work is done on Discord, and the organizational mechanics are more Tao-like and less ego-focused. I’ve really worked to find the right DAOs and I’ve had to re-work my brain to do well in this space, but I’ll never sit through a terrible meeting again. One where nothing gets done. Most everything on Discord has a purpose, and the emoji reactions really help reward contributions. It’s all small details that add up to a larger sense of fulfillment. The pay is twice what I was paid for full time before. I also work about part time most weeks. Sometimes I work odd hours on a launch.
