  • I don’t often actively root for tech to fail. Even if it’s something g dumb, it can pave the road for something down the road. However, I’m here for the failure of this because it’s been so nebulous.

    I don’t know how to explain it, but this kind of feels like when people were trying to make products where the main hook was blockchain and they seemed to have worked backwards from the tech to a product to the problem being the last thing considered.

    As far as I can tell, the only advantage this thing has that a smarter smart watch can provide is taking photos and videos. So maybe there is something there that is worth exploring. Who knows, maybe if apple or Google released this with robust integration and a reasonable price, maybe it could have some potential to have a use case. Maybe GoPro might want to explore the form factor? All that said, none of the things that I think have potential has nothing to do with AI which is what they think is feature #1.









  • There is some ratio of civilian deaths to military targets hit that is essentially “acceptible”. Especially when the military targets are amoung civilians. I don’t know what that number is but it’s definitely way way way way less than right now.

    22k people dead is wholely unacceptable. At absolute best, giving Isreal the biggest benifit of the doubt I can, Isreal is indiscriminately killing civilians.



  • I could shame OP for falling for the crypto hype but I think the more important lesson here is to never ever mix family and finances.

    Even if you know for 100% fact that you have a slam dunk investment, it’s not worth it. Money corrupts.

    Never loan money, even if you don’t expect it to get paid back. It creates a power imbalance. Envy and resentment for you having money is better than creating any financial ties.

    Never go into business with family.

    Don’t mix finances and family. Family is more important than money.
