This seems right up my alley since I'm very interested in security and also love games.
I tried clicking on your full list of openings link and it went to a dead notion page "The page you are looking for cannot be found!"
That's the first interview test! (Take a look at the URL, it's pretty obvious why it's broken)

Between this today and one square minesweeper yesterday, we're batting 1.000 on funny dumb projects that make me laugh. I don't know why you made this either, but I'm glad you did, thanks!

Why does that conversation fail the Turing test?
Granted there are some people on earth who can speak those 3 languages fluently, but it greatly diminishes the pool of available people. If you wanted to take the example to the absurd, you could just start listing more languages, and ChatGPT would happily spit out the answer translated to 100 languages in a few seconds. No person could do that.

Theres a much more comprehensive list here: https://www.doctorofcredit.com/high-interest-savings-to-get/
Also, I believe doctor of credit is not funded by affiliate links like most sites that list this stuff are (including the GP link, I believe)

I don't think this sounds quite like my startup, but perhaps it was Reclaim.ai? Either way, would love for you to check it out :)
The integration is really cool, and it seems like this would be a powerful tool, but I think I'd be fighting against the main thing you want to do (I don't want to reschedule stuff after my Sunday planning session, with only very few exceptions).
Thanks for the suggestion though, and good luck!

Not that I am much into gaming, but I just checked out the site and the one article I clicked on was literally the writer bitching about how the coffee machines were depicted in Starfield. I miss the gaming sites of the 90s and early 00s, you could expect to read passionate articles from gamers. Just reading the headlines on the main page makes me feel like they have some agenda to push, in a political kind of way, and you won't be finding any good game reviews here.
I don't know anything about Kotaku, but I read that same article and thought it was pretty clearly a tongue-in-cheek faux investigative article and laughed at it.
I moved away from Android entirely because of size. Currently on an iPhone 13 Mini, which is riiight at the very upper edge of a reasonable size. I would love to go back to Android if only someone reputable would make a reasonably-sized phone.
Asus Zenphone 10 is a bit bigger than the 13 mini, but is reasonably small and otherwise well regarded
