Creators are getting HIGHER RETENTION RATES using this trick in videos:

Use 10-12 cuts and or visual changes in the first 15 seconds of your videos and tell me if that improved the first 30 seconds' retention rate for your videos.

OH on a call: "Their hearts are in the right place." "Well, good. Then we know where to stab."

This is a really important point because scientifically, life doesn't "begin" at any point in pregnancy. What discussions about when life begins are trying to capture is when a fetus can be considered to have a soul, in a very Christian sense.

It’s good to be reminded that when people give concrete examples of using space differently to improve the lives of people living in a neighborhood, there’s always some constipated car-living boomer to add at least one humbug to the discussion. Don’t like it? Move to Florida.

So sad that my neighbourhood lost 2 parking spots to accommodate a dog-friendly patio, with flowers, artwork and bike racks, that fits 20 people.

Absolutely furious that people are currently able to buy THE SIMS 4 for $19.99 when I myself paid $59.99 several years ago. A real slap in the face to those who worked hard and paid full price.

If it's possible to bootstrap a new device and get existing credentials on that device with only a phishable password, phishable SMS code, and phishable unlock code, the solution is phishable. It enables an attacker to control "something you have" using only "something you know."

It's the perfect metaphor for web3 stuff: reliant on existing web infrastructure, but there's also a crypto middleman pretending to do something to create the illusion that the blockchain is doing anything meaningful

I love my Aranet4. It’s a phenomenal piece of technology. When I start getting brain fog and forgetting people’s names during Zoom calls, I check the CO2 levels. It’s usually the lack of ventilation in the office and not lack of caffeine.

Ohhh those look fantastic

If we stop blowing up planets now, that would be extremely unfair to the planets we've already blown up.

Boomers melting down about how this isn't fair is really something. We know life isn't fair. You told us that every single day of our childhood. So I'll give you the same advice you always gave us: Get over it.
