This is how shitwords like "impactful" sneak into speech. Say it around me and I can see your credibility flow away like piss down your leg.

I can see these words impact you.

It’s not just ChatGPT in our feeds — it’s ChatGPT in our mouths!

Hmm.

Interesting idea, but it comes off at first glance as a conspiracy theory. The white on black bold lettering, the polemic. Maybe visually tone that way back. Make it more inviting.

Next, what makes a conspiracy theory sound nutty is presenting tenuous connections as significant smoking guns. "Bob went to school with Abby and dated Carol, demonstrating that Abby and Carol are connected."

Present your most damning detail with as little front-loading context as possible, and let that lead the user into the data.

Good luck!

I maintain a list of browser based text to diagram tools (which I have shared a number of times here). I recently realised that the online version of D2 does NOT work solely in browser, diagram's are generated by backend servers.

Can D2 work in browser by itself? Does the extension mentioned in the post work offline? (lots of tools do)

~~May I see that list, please?~~

Edit: found it! Thanks.

The trick is having time and energy. The challenge is finding the time and energy in your mid-20s and beyond when things like your career, children, etc. come crushing down upon you, all while, at the same time, your body starts to lose is youthful vitality.

The landing page really should have an open graph image! It would help with sharing and promotion.

> Not to mention all the times FDA has said “you have to do X to get approved” and the company happily complies despite it delaying sales by several quarters.

The company happily complies?

Or just does it begrudgingly because not doing it delays sales a few more quarters if not indefinitely?

I'm not sure where you're getting the idea from that a company would happily do anything additional. It's a cost of doing business. Let's not pretend they're angels, they're in it for the money not the greater good.

And if that last statement needs a rationale, tell me who is doing the work to find the next antibiotic or any other non chronic disease medication

Do you feel that the happiness of the company is salient to GP's arguments? That is, by refuting that part, do you refute the entire?

I understand. I have been there myself. I found it very difficult to crawl out of that hole.

It helped me to understand that since a series of decisions led me there, that a series of decisions could lead me out. It took some irrational risk that paid off in my case.

Since you mention a family with children, modeling good health and socialization will help the children in your life too. Do try, if you can. No shame, if you sincerely cannot.

Good luck.

It's old. You can specify AbortController, for example.
