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?
and it's not a p2p non transactional payment system. it's a system for tipping for digital goods, or donating to digital goods producers. that's the distinction you lost in your generalization.
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?
Yeah my feeling is that there are a lot more important things going on than the color of chat bubbles (or the status/system it implies). Sorry if it came off as though I meant this is more important than other serious things going on.
What if, like the Kobayashi Maru, the bots eventually pass the Turing Test by simply dumbing down human discourse? It seems that on Twitter that is already taking place.
