Then remember to carry that whiteboard with you just in case you get off work early and decide to hit the grocery store.

Good thing the grocery store gives me a piece of paper with a list of the things I bought.

Isn’t the sane solution to just generally have an idea what’s in there, and take a look if you’re not sure?

Trust me, if "just remember it" worked for me, many things about my life would be different. Not just the whiteboard on the fridge.

- Why do you need a reminder to buy gloves when you are holding them?

- Why do you need price trackers for airbnb? It is not a superliquid market with daily price swings.

- Cataloguing your fridge requires taking pictures of everything you add and remove which seems... tedious. Just remember what you have?

- Can you not prepare for the next day by opening your calendar?

- If you have reminders for everything (responding to texts, buying gloves, whatever else is not important to you), don't you just push the problem of notification overload to reminder overload? Maybe you can get clawdbot to remind you to check your reminders. Better yet, summarize them.

Yeah, the sane solution here is much simpler. Put a magnet whiteboard. When you put something into the fridge, add it to the whiteboard. When you take something out, you erase that item from the whiteboard.

Fine article but a very important fact comes in at the end — the author has a human personal assistant. It doesn't fundamentally change anything they wrote, but it shows how far out of the ordinary this person is. They were a Thiel Fellow in 2020 and graduated from Phillips Exeter, roughly the most elite high school in the US.

The screenshots of price checks for a hotel charging $850 a night is what tipped me off. The reservations at expensive bay area restaurants, too.

I have a guess for why this guy is comfortable letting clawdbot go hog-wild on his bank account.

LFS seems to be for people who are interested in how things work. The systemd proponents come off as people who would question why you would want to to drive a manual transmission and say of course you should choose an automatic or better yet, a robot; self driving car. It would be interesting to see how those opinions line up with the uses of AI

I have owned many manual cars, but I'm fine with systemd on all my machines. Being a nerd about one thing doesn't require me to be a nerd about other things.

I don't see anything there that isn't also a valid description of the Patreon website.

If your TV supports AirPlay, you just tap the icon on a video in Safari.

My TV doesn't support Airplay, and I have an Android.

And this is a big part of why I don't own an iOS device, and likely won't be purchasing another laptop from them, despite liking the hardware generally.

Not that I like Google much more re: Android and locking down side-loading more than before.

I was considering GrapheneOS when I bought my latest phone 2 years ago, but decided to stay with Android in the end. It has become very clear to me that I made the wrong choice.

Just stop publishing the app, not every little thing needs an app. What the use for the app anyway? Notifications and apple pay?
ryukoposting · 10 days ago
I use the Patreon app. It's great. I get to see stuff from my favorite creatives weeks (sometimes months) early, and ad-free. Since many of them are youtubers and I don't pay google to show me less ads, this is a huge value prop. And, the Patreon app can cast videos to my TV, so it's really a complete experience.

If I'm patreon, here's what I'm doing:

Jack up every Apple user's monthly payment by 30%.

When they go into the app to figure out what the hell happened, they will find big red text saying "want to avoid the Apple tax? re-subscribe through our website! (Link)"

They click the link, it opens a webpage where all the payment info has been auto-filled. They click "ok." Bam, fee gone.
