The Reddit IPO appears to be holding strong.

11.129B market cap.

There's an appetite for companies with low profitability, but promising future growth.

I love this idea.

But why does it say "70 users run screenpipe 24/7!"

What's being reported from the app, that they know this number?

“Some say funny things.

Others say things funny.”

Something like that.

My kids get a fair share of unsupervised tablet time.

And they seem to know 10x of what I did at their same age.

My son is 9, watching endless Geometry Dash tutorials, and making his own levels. He loves it, and he loves to show me his work.

Tablet time will become an extension of your home life.

If you have good discussions - encouraging curiosity, fostering creativity, challenging their approach "Why did you design it this way?" - the kid and the algorithms will follow that lead.

Ummm.. Have you played with ChatGPT's new voice mode? ;)

Yes! We had the same experience! Mining for diamonds was real work, and we never found a trace.

The crystals were beautiful, and the kids could find them with ease. Tons of fun.

They each got their own pickaxe, which they loved.

They claimed they were already expert diggers because of all the hours they spent playing Minecraft. "We know how to dig, Dad."

We took our kids to Disney World once.

When asked what their favorite part of the trip was, they responded..

The hot tub.

At the hotel.

My kids light up the most when I am fully engaged with them, fully present, entertaining their ideas, and asking questions.

Their favorite family trip so far? When we traveled to Arkansas to mine for crystals. AKA, dig in the dirt all day. They saw it on a YouTube video. They asked to go. So we obliged. I had never been to Arkansas. It's beautiful.

We stayed at a resort, Diamonds Old West Cabins, with a huge playground outside the cabins, archery, and a bubble party every evening at 6 pm.

They still talk about that trip.

Back in the summer of 1999 while I was in college, we were the first house to use MP3's at our parties. Most houses used a CD disc shuffler which usually consisted of a bunch of scratched and smudged discs, so their music skipped all the time.

We went all digital. We were ahead of our time.

The parties were in the basement. We'd lock the computer up in a spare bedroom - ran the wires and speakers out to the main basement area.

We used Winamp on shuffle.

Hours of music without a single skip, without us having to babysit the music.

Thank-you Winamp for the great memories.

A couple of days.

I usually have to go through a withdrawal headache first.

Totally understand.

Luckily I had previously completed 23andMe, so I could cross reference that data with that generated by Nebula/WSG Extract.

My caffeine metabolism did match up.

Yes.

Measure your blood pressure.

Measure before consumption. Take three different readings.

Measure at one hour intervals after caffeine consumption.

Fast metabolizers BP should return to baseline within a couple of hours.

Mine would remain elevated for 10-12 hours.

Nebula.org does the data sequencing.

They support anonymous sequencing.

Genetic Life Hacks provides the analysis on a number of health and disease related topics. Their analysis is simply allele matching for any given topic (string comparisons). It's all done within the browser.

1) Slow metabolizers of caffeine have an increased risk of hypertension or a cardiac event with coffee consumption. Whereas fast metabolizers may have net positive health benefits from coffee consumption.

2) We genuinely lack fidelity on so much subjects that we confidently pontificate about. I've read several reports that coffee is a "net positive". Imagine niavely following that advice your entire life only to realize you're a slow metabolizer and you've been increasing your risk by consuming?

There probably so many aspects to our lives that have genetic components that no one knows about or acknowledges. Even to the point where people will shame others.

"I don't understand, I can drink a whole pot of coffee before bed and sleep like a baby. You'll be fine."

"I don't understand, why can't you just eat less and exercise more and then maybe you wouldn't be a fatty?"

They have no clue.

To determine whether you're a slow or fast caffeine metabolizer..

Wait for a sale at Nebula.org. Get your whole genome sequenced. ~$200. Having your whole genome sequenced could have added benefits down the road.

Download the .BAM file. It will be several gigabytes.

Use WSG Extract to generate the 23andMe raw data files.

https://www.geneticlifehacks.com/convert-whole-genome-file/

Connect that data file to Genetic Life Hacks. Take a look at the article on CYP1A2. This will show you whether you're a slow metabolizer or not.

The linked data file at GLF never uploads to the server. All analysis is local, client side.

Please take in to account slow vs fast caffeine metabolizer.

"CYP1A2 Gene: Fast or Slow Caffeine Metabolizer?"

This is one of those subjects where people argue past each "I can drink a cup of coffee and sleep like a baby!" vs "One cup of coffee in the morning and my sleep quality is impacted". And neither understands how the other can have a vastly different personal experience.

This extends to any online discussion regarding weight loss/gain, politics, wars, etc.

I hear Jira is the ultimate in flexibility and widely beloved. ;)

Previous user of Pivotal Tracker - I'll tell you everything that I loved and hated about it.

I know a couple other devout users as well that I could introduce you to.

Still feels like too many columns, too many states.

Pivotal Tracker - ice box, backlog, or current iteration.

I see companies in Trello Hell - well meaning, but often conflated, grey area states. There's like 10-15 columns on their boards.

It's a hot mess.

You make friends with those that you're in class with.

The entire school isn't the friend pool, but your proximity of classmates.

If the class room sizes are roughly the same, probability of meeting two smart friends will be roughly the same.

What's the best, open source equivalent?

The thing that I always liked about Pivotal is that it was visibly obvious that there was only one queue.

It forced everyone to ruthlessly prioritize and make the hard decisions.

In this moment, do you want me working on this bug, or this new feature? You have to decide - you get one or the other.

It avoided the "Everything is a high priority" dilemma.

It's such a strange way to evaluate schools.

My high school was inner city. But they had AP programs, computer science classes, advanced mathematics.

It's all about your child and the individual path they'll take within the school.

And if they have or two smart friends that they enjoy hanging out with, they're golden.

Feels like there are similar brands that have still flourished, mostly thinking of Pampered Chef?

The value isn't determined by watched hours.

No other streaming platform offers a video catalog that covers nearly all aspects of human activities.

This has never existed in all of humanity.

>Youtube is net bad for the world

Disagree. The outliers don’t determine the value of the platform.

The videos of people creating, fixing, coding, diagnosing, doing every day random things - those are a gift to humanity.

Those visual demonstrations transcend language. Because of this, YouTube is more important than Google or any written word website.

Knowledge share is finally global.

So.. the problem and solution is capitalism? :)

There’s been no shortage of proposed solutions and education.

Weight loss is apparently a 90 billion dollar industry.

It’s just that the long term weight loss outcomes are still abysmal.

New approaches are gladly welcomed.

Feels like the challenge here is to somehow convey to the end user, how the quality of output is so much better.

Dang - I don't see the model listed for me in the iOS app nor the web interface.

I'm a ChatGPT subscriber.
