I love this. Also curious how other parents that code who have older kids are using new tools to help navigate their family thru different phases. Personalized software opens up infinite possibilities so it’s interesting to hear what’s working for people.

Am at a fully remote position after years commuting from the East Bay to SF. Don’t miss BART, don’t miss the commute to the office, and won’t go back. I am remote only from this point forward. It works well for our team and if I decided to switch roles I would absolutely prioritize orgs that have figured out how to be effective remotely. It is absolutely possible and honestly feels like a useful filter when assessing how adaptive an org is to changing circumstances. Clinging to an in office approach feels distinctly horse n carriage to me at this point.

Zaps are not payments to Damus devs. Zaps are purely P2P and non-transactional. This does seem new? When even @jack is surprised by it? Not his first rodeo, right?

Support for pricing tiers above 1k for one big thing.

I tried this approach. I love being outside, love the beach, love to run and when I was younger I loved having a nice bronze tan.

I am now a stage 4 melanoma patient. They have taken my lymph nodes on one side, a chunk of my brain, and half of my right lung. Immunotherapy has so far saved my life, but there are no guarantees this will last.

Careful. I sincerely hope it plays out better for you..

Anecdotally, I love the personalized station Apple Music generates for me. I have pretty eclectic, cross-genre taste and the quality of the personalized station - the mix of stuff I already love and the new stuff that I don't know yet but that I end up loving - is by far the stickiest part of the service for me. It also seems to be improving over time? I know, anecdotal, but that has been my experience..

Have recently been scammed by a couple of these, and was pretty sure I knew better. Curious if this community has any suggested recourse for this kind of stuff? Especially after the fact, when you realized you've been scammed?

Wow. There’s been a lot going on lately?

By raising the quality bar of what is expected?

Rick Deckard feels your pain. Kinda makes you wonder about the usefulness of the Turing Test too, if humans can’t pass it anymore..

Scholarships are a thing?

Anyone try FaceTiming his email? Could be linked to iCloud and FaceTime-able..

Many Lehman clients got pennies on the dollar..

iMessage is my goto method for sharing kids pics these days. It’s on purpose to the people I know care and who I trust. Also private so no endless public record. And there are archived backups in the cloud. Perhaps some of my extended circle misses out this way? But it mostly seems to work.

I’d recommend a combo of teaching English and freelance remote dev. Definitely possible to make it work..

We have wild turkeys near us. My chocolate lab went a couple rounds with a mother turkey this spring. First couple of encounters went to the mama turkey as she was defending her babies and my dog was just terrified of her. She would spread her wings (6-8 feet wide or so?) and then hover above him. He would freak out and back away, terrified. Eventually the dog got brave, chased her off and ate a couple of turkey babies. But based on that interaction, I definitely would NOT bet on a lab taking down a velociraptor. The raptor would have gone for the kill when the dog was still scared..

This is great, appreciate having all of this in one place. Handy reference.

Huh. I personally LOVE using my iPhone as a remote for our Apple TV. Also the way it’s implemented there’s no need to look at your phone at all - the phone is just a giant touchpad that gives you full control of the TV interface..

hahahahha. It’s a strange world when 300k+ of current purchasing power is not considered a decent inheritance. What baseline are you using? I would have loved an inheritance like that..

This sounds like Rawls’ veil of ignorance argument..

As a pedestrian walking in SF, I am almost run over in crosswalks daily, even while knowing that drivers will run right through them. Fix that and I’d subscribe to a companion app with a blank white screen for $5/month..

The real question is - who wants wireless charging? This is how they achieve that..

Courage! In all seriousness, if you were expecting a reintroduction of the headphone jack, you might as well wait for them to reintroduce floppy disks. Apple only looks forward. That's just how they roll.

But some of us might move back if Amazon were there..

I also have done this. When companies reach out via recruiters, it never hurts to ask for what you want. Worst case, it's an easy screen; best case, you get what you want..
