Try to find places you can become a regular, it sounds like you're experiencing true grief and isolation is exacerbating it. I know how hard it can be to pull yourself out. Making myself a regular in places that suited my interests, a local bookstore where I buy all of my books and have a chat with the owner, an arcade where I go, a bar that has a night of music i'm into helped me. Just getting to the point where you can go into a space, and be acknowledged as a human being that another human being has seen and talked to before was really grounding for me. I made no friends from doing this, but it helped me feel a bit less isolated and helped make other positive changes that led to being less alone. What you do is so much less important than forcing yourself to just put yourself into a situation where you are face to face with someone else. I hope this helps
This has to be the most effective ad campaign they have done, I have seen some variation of this story on every platform I use. I don't think the brand has a lot of goodwill, but my awareness has gone through the roof due to this AI push
oh yeah, my perception was that it was 75% gay, but, I think the grindr comparison is unfair, I think I've only been propositioned once or twice and no unsolicited dick pics!
It's not perfect, but I've managed to make some friends on Bumble BFF, https://bumble.com/bff-us/ . If you are more of a one on one person and feel awkward in groups, this is the best thing i've found so far
he has recently been clawing at relevancy with anti-trans talking points, which is specifically why I think his name would be something google would want to stay away
Well, if racism in America was over. As in, similar rates of wealth and poverty, incarceration and college degrees, etc etc, across racial lines, then yeah, it would be a distraction. But when economic disadvantage, inherited from outright racist laws, is abundantly clear to see, it's hard for me to accept that we are not still anti black (and anti poor, etc) as a country when things like this happen
It be nice if you mapped the keys to the user keyboard kinda like ableton, for people who dont have a midi controller handy
White Keys: The keys from ‘A’ to ‘L’ on your keyboard correspond to the white keys on a piano, covering a full octave from C to D.
Black Keys: The keys in between, like ‘W’ and ‘E’, correspond to the black keys or the sharp notes on a piano.

My immediate guess after reading this was that this isn't a change at Google but a name issue. Jeff Star getting confused with Jeffree Star (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffree_Star). He's a lightening rod for controversy, and has been in the middle of a controversial public persona shift that probably has caused an uptick in all kinds of requests to google.
Not a coffee person, but the design of the app under "Coffee notes reimagined" looks great. However, I think your splash video isn't doing it justice, between the overlayed text and the glare from it being shot outside, I didn't get a sense of how great the UI is till that section down the page.
I think for some people, at least myself, tattoos are a narrative, it's such a bizarre process, half art and half science, that each session, wether it was in a punk house with no electricity or an upscale art gallery on the other side of the world gets ingrained a little deeper. They're like little time machines, I can remember who I was, where I was, who I was with. And I'm guessing I'm in the minority here, but I can't stand the look of a fresh clean tattoo, the stick and poke in a dorm room, the 20 year old one done in a studio that wasn't too concerned with checking ids, the one that was done way too deep, in the dark, and healed into a puff sticker like scar consistency, that's what I love. I've considered a few times going in and getting some of my more visible ones removed, and the occasional must wear long sleeved shirt wins every time, no matter what I gain or lose, I like my garbage art time machines
If you are looking for a front end role, a great idea, otherwise it's not a bad idea. But, I would suggest going with Next over React for static content, this a great starter https://vercel.com/templates/next.js/nextjs-boilerplate and your build process will be all set from the set and tied to the created GitHub main branch, best of luck!
