Social media should increase your number of friends in real life, but that's not been my experience. There's a lot of lonely people out there, so many somebody will figure this out.

If China does invade, then it seems likely that North Korea would also invade SK, forcing the US to fight on at least 2-fronts, or 3 depending on what Russia is doing. If I was rich I'd move to Buenos Aires, the Paris of South America, and wait this thing out.

You can't fail at "A Short Hike" or "Goose Game". Games without losing are great for young players like 5-year olds, who get frustrated when they can't time that jump just right.

afaik, that's by design. It's more like BBS'ing where people in the know can find a cool place to hangout that's not overrun by the rest of the planet. Like a beach without annoying tourists.

WW3 will likely start over China invading Taiwan or NK invading South Korea, triggering defense pacts in approx 2027.

You are incentivizing low-effort video-posts (to unlock your feed). This is not a good strategy.

Weirdly, people don't have as many friends as they used to. That's why TikTok beat Facebook. Facebook is useless if you don't have a friend-graph IRL, like a telephone system with only one telephone. I think the future of social is going to be 1-on-1 interactions, everything else just becomes rep-farming, crowd-pleasing, performance art, trolling, etc.

Who even uses 3D spaces besides gaming? User-generated content is usually terrible, like Mario-maker -- most user-gen levels aren't any fun.

Anyway, go play SecondLife for awhile before you spend too many more cycles thinking about this.

This is about a button added to edge browser (in dev mode) that appears to be ChatGPT instance with contextual knowledge of the video.

The reward for finishing your work is usually more work. You need to set some boundaries/not "always be on-call" for issues. If you are always on-call your nervous-system can never relax because every phone call is a threat to normal recovery.

I always hear about selling data. What is all this data worth? If I had an etsy shop or a chess site, do companies want to buy this data? and for how much and for what? Credit-score modelling?

Radio DJs say something about the local sports team, the weather and the next song about to be played.

You could automate that whole job into a couple of API calls.

I get the impression React is the most bankable. I learned it on Udemy for $10 (they were running a sale that day)

The shroud proves he was real.

When advances in technology creates new opportunities, the first one to conquer the market is remembered. Everyone had the idea for a 3D shooter back in the day, but Carmack is the one that is remembered.

Social audio is chatting while playing Fortnite I think.

Or more likely, people will require essentially no evidence for something that confirms their bias, and an unsurmountable unreasonable body of evidence for something that contradicts it.

He's a real estate millionaire that has moral issues with declaring bankruptcy. Real estate is like life's cheat code: borrow money from the bank -- buy rental property -- pay the bank back with someone else's money. All this "get a second job"/"deliver pizzas" advice is disingenuous in my opinion when the real secret is borrow money and become part of the landed class.
