You can verify it by clicking on the link and looking at it.

I would genuinely like to talk to these people, or at least the top few users, and ask them what they use it for and how.

It still feels to me like there has to be an angle that I'm missing.

Apparently the family believes that he is guilty but doesn't want him executed (but does want him in prison). In some countries the families wishes are enough to prevent an execution but not in the US.

I think a lot of this makes sense when it's made for mobile, while desktop users are using increasingly large monitors.

I mean, you don't have to marry who they suggest, but it seems like a good first step for someone you talk to. At least a little bit stronger of a data-point than "I liked her face and 140char bio"

This is kind of terrifying to me because I've definitely felt a bit slower since I got COVID.

I like the idea of having limited but higher quality interactions.

Another way to encourage this I think is making it a paid service. Filters out anyone just using it to look at pictures or waste time.

I liked the bumble founders idea of having LLMs trained on peoples texts/social-media activity and having them talk to each other and then matching people based on that. Might be a good way to determine that one daily match.

I think it's interesting that there were websites like e-harmony that promised to match people based on personality tests but in the age of increasing ML/data-analytics/etc there hasn't been a bigger push to return to that, instead all match-making apps have converged on swiping on pictures.

Alpha signal. Investing asap.

I generally agree except for this point:

> Somehow, we convinced ourselves that turning our necks back and forth is superior to simply resizing windows to smaller sizes so they can be next to each other on a single screen, allowing us to move our eyes quickly without risking a neck injury.

This is basically the same as having multiple screens.

I think where screens help is when they let you avoid a context switch.

So for me if I'm modifying a class and I have to edit class.h, class.cc, as well as wherever it goes I like to have them all open at once so I don't have to hold that context in my head.

Let's not jynx things.

Is this not an insane level of censorship to anyone?

If we can't control what you publish we will shut you down entirely. That's insane.

Woops. Hasbara-bots got it.

I hope someone double checked those doors.

This name has another meaning on Twitter.

Equating things that Israel has clearly, demonstrably, actually done with blood libel is not a great idea even from a practical perspective.

Wow it's been up for a full hour.

> "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence"

lmao good you admit that there's no evidence. I guess you just believe this on faith due to your religious beliefs.

Going to have to do better than that if you want to use it as justification for blowing up billions.

Yeah I wouldn't take someone picking out these verses of the Talmud as a serious criticism of Judaism, but this is someone who is jewish using that text to justify his actions.

Yesterday there was a massive concentrated effort to spread a fake translation from a gaza video.

It's hard to fight misinformation when it's coming from a state-level actor.

I was diagnosed with ADHD as a kid. Medication made me extremely miserable and tried it again as an adult and it still made me miserable (made me focused, but completely on the wrong things).

There are a lot of coping mechanisms that can help. Taking notes, leaving your phone behind, etc. I also switched from coffee to tea which helps a lot.

Well yes, besides the fact that there's absolutely zero proof for it they're also not bothering with that basis anymore.

If a news agency is anything other than a stenographer for their propaganda, they must be banned. Same thing any other fascist government does.

lmao is this a joke? This contradicts what you said.

There's "secret evidence" but Blinken denied seeing it.

The evidence is a secret, and even the people who have seen it are a secret! But we should totally just take Israels word for it, everyone except them will lie pathologically.

Wow journalists and media being shut down? That's crazy. Anyway what's this post about.

They were never even clear about what the allegations were, but people involved that it was (at most) a media office, so even then it still wouldn't be a media office under any reasonable standard. (Meanwhile, check out where the IDF headquarters is located).

Wow that's crazy how literally every single person except IDF intelligence was willing to lie about it.

There's no reason to waste time addressing those claims because now that they're also going after western journalists, even Israel isn't bothering with those pretexts anymore.

It's very clearly an attempt to control the information that comes out and limit it to their own narrative only, same as any other dictatorship taking control of the media.

Ah ok I had a police officer force me to unlock my phone and show him my IMEI once so that answers why.

Well that amount of money is what Europeans are living on (even with typically higher costs of living), so it's still not a tradeoff people would make.

In jobs where people get paid hourly and have access to overtime, they compete with each other to get those extra hours. Revealed preferences say they want the money more than the time.
