I pay ChatGPT 20 bucks a month, or whatever the subscription is. I get massive value out of this, Sam Altman is paying for my computing power. I’m paying a tenth(or less) of what the actual price is. Once that no longer applies, I will ditch ChatGPT and probably build my own LLM computer.
So thanks Sam for giving me cheap computing power.
Even if what this article claims is false, I'm 100% in favor of buying organic fabrics like wool and cotton. I'm doing it as much as I can and it's not that difficult except for shoes and some water proof layer. There are also solutions for that but I admit they are a bit less convenient for certain uses like hiking
The microplastics are getting everywhere and I don't want to know what happens if the amount keeps increasing... But I guess we will know.
I wouldn't spread conspiracy theories without more information. It has rained really a lot and maintenance of railways are long overdue in Spain and especially Catalonia
I don't really know if they help to prevent infections but my wife has Long Covid and every time there is too much dust, pollen or smoke around us she gets pretty bad.
So we decided to buy them with little proof after she noticed she feels somewhat better when staying in a room with one. It could even be partially placebo but for the days with too much particles from outside I think it really helps.
Maybe we should rather have a full control of air flows in our home but that would be a huge investment for a very old house, also having air flowing with windows partially open on dry days also seems to help. Humidity ( and certainly mold) also has a clear negative effect so I had to buy a dehumidifier too
Full of people sucking each other BS. And then recruiters unable to understand the most basics of a profile.
Nevertheless I update my own from time to time, it can still be useful if you navigate through the garbage. Also it helps me to cross-check a bit some people if they have a contact that you both know and you trust.
More than once I encountered people with 100% fake profile and fake work history. Maybe LinkedIn should only allow to add that you worked somewhere doing something with some kind of verification process.
I've lost count how many first-line engineering managers I've actively worked alongside change their LinkedIn title to "Engineering Leader" or something like that. They'll be a manager of 6 ICs in Org X, which itself is comprised of 400 people, but on their profile they'll put "leading Org X". It's some of the clearest evidence I've seen that LinkedIn is toxic sludge.
My wife with Long Covid for 3 and a half years has the same issue and doctors just don't want to be bothered by her. For example spirometry test showed that her lung capacity is fine but the test itself left her exhausted for one week.
The pulmonologist analysing the results didn't even want to hear about her idea to do 2 tests in 2 sequential days. It was going to be harming for her but she was willing to do it just to have some evidence of what happens to her next day after an "effort".
She also asked for help to understand why polluting or pollen can trigger her fever and even coughing blood. Doctor just said she doesn't know and there is not test he can do.
It's so discouraging the lack of curiosity, eagerness to help and to try to learn new things 99% of doctors show.
I'm kind of forced to use X because to help my sick wife I follow on Long Covid research, people self-reporting improvement and so on.
Is there a way to get what I want without using X directly unless I interact? Notice that I need to be able to easily "follow" new people if someone I already follow retweets/likes someone new and interesting to me. Or also navigate through chain of retweets and references
