Medication if you have a mental disorder that causes you to "procrastinate" or "focus on the wrong thing" :)

Yeah, ex. Pablo Escobar bombed a flight with hundreds of people on it, killed thousands of police officers and many more civilians etc.

BUT he also built churches and schools in the poor neighborhood he grew up in.

So he did some really terrible things and was overall a terrible person, BUT he also did some really good things.

My bank is already pure virtual with no physical locations, so yeah I would trust that.

The problem with a crypto exchange isn't "not having an HQ" but rather the lack of regulations. A bank has regulations so they can't really be as scummy. So if there were proper regulations in place then it wouldn't be a problem.

It wouldn't matter if it has an HQ or not, it only matters where the company is registered and how that country regulates it. I believe currently Binance is registered as a company in Singapore, but I could be remembering wrong.

Much like you then I love what Elon Musk is the leader of but I despise him and hate him with every fiber of my body.

Isn't Changpeng Zhao the CEO since he founded it and still seems to be running it?

Still a sketchy person and the company as a whole too, especially the fact that the reasoning for no HQ is to be decentralized like crypto, whatever that means in the sense of a company.

It's nicely done, but I don't really see the use in it, but I'm also someone who's not in touch with my emotions that well anyway, but I am also one who hasn't benefited much from therapy and all of my mental problems have only been solved to an extend by medication, never by talking about my problems.

Most people do need therapy, it's just that most people don't know it.

Drones fail all the time, so I wouldn't classify that as a success example.

The difference here is that if the drone fails then nothing really happens, the targets might even be spared lol, but if a commercial airplane fails then hundreds of lives could possibly be lost.

I don't think the airline industry is ready for that massive risk. It's already risky enough for them now.

It's funny you mention the whole airline thing. Airline's don't even make money from passengers buying tickets at this point. It's a net-loss in most cases when people fly. They make their profits from loyalty programs mostly. Airlines are banks at this point and operate as such mostly. People flying and travelling is second-hand now.

+ Flexibility - I don't want to have to be statically tied to a clock and I want to be able to take whatever breaks I need, whenever I need them.

- Micromanagement - I don't want anyone to overlook my work when it's being made, nobody to look over my shoulder and I want to just work in peace and only have any higher-ups wonder about the project(s) when finished or individual steps are ready for test.

+ Ability to work on my own things - I have many projects of my own and I want to be able to work on them and manage them alongside whatever work I am hired to do.

+ Trust - Very important that there's trust in that I finish my work regardless of how dynamically I work, as I don't work in a straight-line, I have to work a little here and a little there, otherwise I get nothing done.

- Work family bullshit - you know all that corporate cringe stuff

+ Remote work whenever needed - I should have the ability to work remote if I want to. I personally like to go see people, so I will not be working remote the majority of my time, BUT I want the ability to do so and without limitation. If I want to work home for the next 3 months then I should be able to do so.

+ Salary should be at least 20% above what I make

- Overtime without pay or without agreement beforehand - I refuse to work overtime unless it was agreed upon beforehand and definitely won't do it without pay. If a server is down and needs a restart and it can be done remote in 5 minutes, that's fine, but if I have to spent 1-2 hours fixing something, then it's not going to happen unless agreed upon beforehand, typically weeks in advance. I also work my specific hours per week and that's it. No more, no less. I prioritize working my exact hours a lot and anything extra is going to cost. At the moment that's up to 40 hours. I haven't worked over 40 hours for months and I will not do it without a good reason and pay.

+ Tech stack - I should be able to work with whatever language and tools I want, unless I have to maintain an existing project, but for new projects there should be no limitations.

+ Laptop, monitors etc. should all be paid for - I won't use any of my personal stuff.

Probably not for long considering the electricity will be cut off if it's not paid. None of the services run etc. are located within the company building, so presumably most of those things would run just fine indefinitely.

If you walked into a grocery store to buy milk, let's say for $1 and then the cashier refuses to give you the milk for $1 and demands $2 instead.

How would you respond to the situation in that case?

This is exactly the same.

If it was me, then I would just refuse to do business with them and let them keep the milk and I keep my money; would most likely find another grocery store where I can buy milk for the price given.

You fell for a phishing site it seems.

Make a calendar event that notifies you in 6 months about it and then check it out.

For me personally, I don't actually trust any of that.

Any purchase I do online is done with a virtual card that links to a bank account that only ever has the amount I need to pay for whatever it is I am currently purchasing. That way it doesn't matter if the information is stolen etc. because there is no more money to use and I can cancel the card as easily as I can create a new.

For banking I also only use my banks official app, I don't know how exactly it works and I assume it does use some form of http and whatnot, but I wouldn't trust using a bank through the browser as you never know what kind of thing an extension or something have in there.

I can contest to this, I am by no mean important and none of my servers that I own have any importance, BUT I have thousands of people trying to remote into the servers every day and also thousands of requests into some of my webservers with things like /admin /phpmyadmin or whatever, you name it.

So yeah even if you aren't a big target then you are still a target for automated attacks as they just pick whatever IPs they can find and try to breach.

Sort of yeah, it wouldn't be possible with my carrier for example as they would just tell you "login online and swap it" because things like switching sim etc. is just something you do there and not something you call them about. And to login to the website you must use the national 2factor authentication.

So essentially they would have to breach the national 2factor authentication system first here.

And there is absolutely no way that you could "social engineer" the guy on the other end of the phone who works for the telecompany as there is no way you shouldn't be able to use their online tools.

Here are some things I would like to see with a tool like this:

1. The ability to choose what side of the circle the bubble of text is

2. an opacity slider so you don't have to toggle browsing mode on or move things around to see what's behind

3. drawing capabilities so you can mark an area etc.

4. same as 3 but shapes that you can resize

5. allow people to comment on feedback given - basically threads for each feedback bubble or whatever - that way you can ask for clarity etc.

6. an archive of all feedback that has existed - so you can track what feedback has been resolved etc.

7. labels that can be added to feedback bubbles and then some way to filter them all so you only see feedback that targets your specific label filter ex. you only want to see feedback for text or only feedback for design etc. can also be used for prioritization, as not all feedback should be treated equally

I am sure I could come up with more, but these are what I just thought about now.

2022 and not being mobile-first or at the very least supporting mobile is a crime.

2014 is almost a decade ago anyway, only off by a little under 2 years.

I want to quote something from another article about CBDC usage in Denmark, as it seems like Denmark is pretty oppositional to using CBDC:

"In a report on new types of digital money, Danmarks Nationalbank analyzes the popular motivations for a central bank digital currency (CBDC) amongst developed nations. As context, Denmark is one of the EU countries that is not part of the euro currency zone. A core rationale promoted by the European Central Bank (ECB) is for a retail CBDC to act as a trust ‘anchor’ for digital money once cash disappears. Denmark’s central bank highlights that its domestic payments are already primarily digital – just over 10% of physical purchases in Denmark use cash – and it does just fine without a CBDC."

Seems about right for the modern age if you look at history and how many "kings" have been killed

And you're not going to solve world problems by acting like the internet police

While you are right, I think it also depends on what it is, like an AI can learn natural language must faster than humans.

So I think it depends on the area on how fast it can do it, BUT humans are much better at recognizing patterns etc. so we definitely can do it with smaller datasets than an AI would need.

I think the biggest problems with AI is how much data they need to learn something.

Might as well ban normal posts and responses then. A lot of them are wrong too. The majority of the time you get wrong or misleading information, but sometimes that is enough for you to solve the issue anyway.

No computer today can even match human vision and perception either. Human vision is by far superior and humans are able to easily pick out things we see that are unfamiliar, fast, efficient and in large quantities.

AI is much faster than humans in learning from existing datasets, but humans are much better at predicting the unpredictable.

Most people don't overcome it, but deals with it. A lot of people still feel it, but choose to ignore it or substitute the feeling with something else. What can help in dealing with anxiety and fear is really just not thinking about it. I know it sounds a little cliché and whatnot, but it really is the best way to deal with it. Anxiety and fear usually stem from overthinking.

The passwords in LastPass were still kept safe and the breach could never impact that because of how it's stored.

The anime tracker came AFTER this project management tool. Taiga.io is from 2014, Taiga.moe is from 2015. At least those are the earliest presence of the two I could find.

Having read that book, I can agree with this a lot.

The book is amazing at teaching you to solve problems, as it helps you analyze and understand the behavior of others.

It teaches you both what to do and what not to do in any given situation, but it also teaches you how to spot those who play the game of power as well.

It's a tool that not only helps you obtaining/maintaining power, but also how to take away power from others.

The principles in the book can mostly be applied to other things as well.
