On 2) I've combatted this since long before AI by playing a game of "get home without using GPS" whenever I drive somewhere. I've definitely maintained a very good directional sense by doing this - it forces you to think about main roads, landmarks, and cardinal directions.

Corner Health (https://cornerhealth.com) | Full-Stack Engineer | Onsite, Full-time, Santa Monica, CA

We're a seed-stage healthcare tech startup on a mission to empower Nurse Practitioners to establish and run their own primary care practices. To do so, we're building a suite of software that eliminates administrative burden with modern tech and AI, allowing NPs to focus on patient care. We use TypeScript, Node.js, React, and GraphQL.

We're hiring our second engineer to work alongside our founding engineer and co-founders. You'll integrate multiple external systems (payment processing, insurance eligibility, etc.), build internal tools accelerated by AI, and have real ownership over core parts of the product. Most important characteristics are high agency, pragmatism, and curiosity. You should be comfortable moving fast while setting up systems that can scale.

We've raised $7.5M from First Round Capital, Homebrew, and founders of DoorDash, Clover Health, and more. We're expanding to 3 states this year, have a waitlist of NPs interested in joining our platform, and are the fastest growing primary care network in Arizona.

> we also need to come up with incentives to light a fire under the butts of individual actors in our economy to actually go out and make things.

I've been watching something similar happen in LA with Measure HLA, a "safe streets" bill that was supposed to require the city to include safety improvements for pedestrians and cyclists during regular road maintenance. The bill passed with broad support but none of the people in charge of the agencies seem to want to do any of that stuff, so they either drag their feet or simply don't comply, leading to lawsuits and delays. (Just today, Metro voted unanimously to not include a now-legally mandated bike lane along a major new busway, claiming it's not their problem. Which might be true — and that's a separate issue — but playing hot potato with safety & mobility improvements feels like a leadership problem, not a legal problem.)

I like designing good incentives but in this case just passing laws is not working. You also need the actors to want the change. (I personally would be focusing on installing new leadership.)

This is the key to a lot of my workflows as well. I'll usually tack some form of "ask me up to 5 questions to improve your understanding of what I'm trying to do here" onto the end of my initial messages. Over time I've noticed patterns in information I tend to leave out which has helped me improve my initial prompts, plus it often gets me thinking about aspects I hadn't considered yet.

Sentence diagramming is one of the few activities I distinctly remember from middle school. Sometimes we'd walk into class and the teacher would have an interesting sentence on the board from a book he was reading. We'd spend the entire class diagramming it and discussing different ways to write it that might shift the emphasis around or completely change the meaning. I loved those exercises and my understanding of English syntax is so much deeper because of it.

I have this problem too. I've been searching for others having the same issue for forever and this is the first time I've seen any mention of it. I submitted feedback to Apple with a screen recording but nothing ever came of that.

It seems like it has something to do with the cadence of when I press the return key while it's loading suggestions into the autocomplete dropdown. It's almost as if pressing return is selecting an item that isn't in the dropdown list yet. If I paste a URL and wait a second or two I never have that problem. It's when I'm moving quickly that I frequently run into it.
