Just use the free ones. There are some that are better than Helvetica, just like there are cars cheaper and faster than a Ferrari without the brand name.
I couldn't agree more. Company culture should be one of the top primary metrics used to value an investment. Forget all the business school lingo, all the numbers, and all the bullet points. CEO's buyback stocks, and accountants cook the books all the time. There's always room for fudging with numbers and metrics and how you present them, so all that "math" is really just misdirection. What is presented really doesn't matter, because at the end of the day the goal is always to present the company in good light. No ones gonna say "we had a bad quarter, we don't have a plan, and lost our lead in the marketplace, so please give us more funding".
What can't be faked is the experience their employees - the team so to speak - have working there. And if the team at large doesn't get along, doesn't believe in what they are working for, well, lets just say they aren't gonna win any championships.
In a dystopian world, where algorithms judge everyone by some arbitrary metric, you get to decide which algorithm will choose your fate. Which one will it be?
Honestly, I see a stronger argument for teaching programming like a basic subject, alongside english and math, even if the student has no intention of ever using it. As in everyone really should learn to code, regardless of what it does to the job market. There's a lot of really simple concepts that translate well into real life.
Hi. Can you elaborate on this? I'm basically an above average learner, as in, just above average, not beyond, so I've always excelled in subjects that don't require a lot of repeated practice or rote learning but always abandoned those which do such as advanced science, math, engineering etc. I love the idea of knowing how to code but I hate the idea of following a disciplined and rigorous approach to learning. This has turned me into an entrepreneur that prefers to leverage and utilize what is available out there instead of inculcating it in myself, which I find to be a waste. However, it does leave me feeling somewhat intellectually unfulfilled, at times. How can I motivate myself to learn to code? What are these simple concepts that may help me in general? Thank you.
More important than inbox zero is to unsubscribe from every mailing list. Its all just manipulation at the end of the day. Worst offender I had was facebook. Took way too many unsubscribes because of the countless categories of emails to unsubscribe from.
I've never used tiktok, but I do have one question. Does the fact that its in video make it harder for influencers to fake their lives? Or is superficiality still highly prevalent?
Images are easier to manipulate and show less context so it’s definitely less shallow in that sense. TikTok also has a more personal and comedic culture in my experience.
I'm a convert into paper as well, I used to use google calendar, trello, various todo list applications. Paper just seems to win out because of its flexibility.
The best thing is you discover/invent more ways to use it as you use it more. You can't really add new features to an app so easily, but with paper its just a matter of writing it down. You can also break rules everywhere and your paper planner will not crash.
Yes! You don't have to wait for your planner to boot up, you don't have to have a special pen, you don't have to worry about charging a battery....plus you can doodle.
> that eat mainly shells have this set of teeth to tear and crush
I was thinking when I saw the images that there must be some sort of convergent evolution going on. I would love to know what the similarities in our mastication patterns are with these fish. I wonder if our purported history with consuming bone marrow have anything to do with this similarity?
The entire family is like a bunch of Darwin's finches. The predators of fish and squid have four big fangs. The eaters of tiny crustaceans and algae eaters have a comb of needles, and the predators of limpets and clams have incisors and molars (Take a look also to the grinding teeth like cobblestones at the bottom of the mouth).
I forget where I saw it but there was a documentary or a short that showed a series on Netflix using AI to fill in-between frames, allowing animators to draw less frames. Of course it didn't seem to change the workload of the animators, they just improved the quality of each keyframe - so another case of "robots are taking our jobs, but not exactly".
