This was true but no longer is
This is not true, running your code on your phone with Xcode has always been free.
While I agree with you in general, keep in mind that there are plenty of languages where seeing the characters doesn't give you any info about how to type them. No copy-paste means you'd need to rely on OCR.
Everyone is lying to you. Assuming you're talking about the iOS Simulator, the MacBook Air will do you just fine.
I really love this. A book was recommended to me that I'm not going to have time to read, but this UI is an amazing way to figure out the main ideas and dive deeper into the interesting ones.
No idea if the things it's telling me are true or not, but that doesn't matter quite as much in this case.
I wonder how well this approach would work with handwriting and Hanzi/Kanji. Don't focus too much on learning, just write the characters and learn the meanings over and over again.
If you don't want the automation stuff, it's perfectly usable for free.
I to remember having the exact same thought with the original Pokemon games. I could never wrap my head around how the battles could handle randomness.
It answers this in the 3rd sentence of the page.
"As with all our APIs, data sent in and out of the fine-tuning API is owned by the customer and is not used by OpenAI, or any other organization, to train other models."
It's nice that we named it so forward-thinking. Not a necessarily Completely Automated Public Turing test to Keep Computers Out.
I'll advocate for Lex Friedman (
https://lexfriedman.com) and say that you're actually talking about Lex Fridman. :)
This is a false dichotomy. There is value in the normal social interactions of a workplace even if they don't become lifetime friends. Seeing people during the day, small talk, having relationships come and go - these are healthy and enjoyable things even if they never get deeper.
You can do exactly this with BetterTouchTool. You can also set it up with Hammerspoon.
The problem is that this then becomes a cache invalidation problem. Many of the examples presented will be outdated in 1 year, and completely wrong in 5. How can you know which answers need to turnover and when?
> It is almost certain that if someone is smart enough to build a search engine while living off of ramen, they also know more about what Google is capable of.
I'm not sure this is a given. Tons of brilliant developers (myself included) build complex products without having ever considered the market, or just assuming that users will come out of the woodwork if it's technically awesome enough.
Seems to me that if a founder doesn't have immediate answers to some of these "existential questions", that's a red flag right there.
It's all based off the CoL in county of your primary residence. Has nothing to do with the proximity to an office.
I wrote and maintain Lacona, a Mac productivity App (
https://lacona.app). The majority of my revenue comes from being a part of the Setapp subscription service.
It would work fine as long as everyone consuming the shopping list has a reasonable idea what normal things your shopping lists. Things like "kili sike loje" (red round fruit) are ambiguous but are no doubt close enough to jog your memory enough to work.
The toughest part that comes to mind would be particular spices. You would probably need to start borrowing words to distinguish between things like thyme and rosemary ("namako Tin", "namako Loseli")
Google Fi and Google Voice are not the same thing - Fi has no such built-in protection.
Off topic, but looking through the comments, so many people seem to believe that any multi-family housing is noisy. That has literally never been my experience despite living exclusively in multi-family housing for the past 15 years. Sometimes I can hear my neighbor's kid when they're directly outside my front door. That's it.
Have the folks who think that apartments are noisy just never lived in apartment? Or is my experience the skewed one?
Since moving to Boston I have only lived in multi-family wooden houses, and this just isn't true, at least with modern-ish insulation. I can occasionally hear my upstairs neighbor's dog when she gets excited, and precisely nothing else.

That's not how that works. Traveling 100 light years will take >100 years for the folks on the ship no matter how fast it's going.
