Late stage capitalism: A supermarket throws perfectly good food in the dumpster, pays its workers so little they can barely afford groceries, then asks customers to donate to the food bank at checkout. And we're supposed to admire how fucking efficient this system is.

And only 15% of nursing homes compliant on infection control!! How is this allowed? @HIQA
Why are fire precautions so blatantly ignored in Irish nursing homes. 33% non compliant. I have seen first hand the devastating injury to a patient from a fire that could have been prevented.

1. The bottom line: SARS-CoV-2 only emerged in late 2019. No-one can know the long-term effects of repeated infections, but with anosmia and cognitive dysfunction as common symptoms, the assumption I make is that there is a tsunami of early-onset neurocognitive diseases coming.

every product i use should just be a headless mcp, that feeds into an agent, where i never have to think about anything underneath. except for our product, of course. in our product, customers love the ui and love us very much. we're special that way.

Two points: first, there is no 'after Covid'. There is 'after the end of societal non-pharmaceutical interventions'. Second, Covid can cause both prolonged fatigue and prolonged cognitive dysfunction. Because Covid is so common, population level effects are inevitable.
After COVID, people's social skills have drastically declined. Many have less patience for each other, and simple interactions can feel awkward. Everyone seems more comfortable staying home and avoiding people.

The widespread acceptance of the idea that 'Covid is over' while people are still constantly getting Covid over and over again.
What’s the weirdest thing society accepts as normal?

Still no customers, but I’ve narrowed it down to the border radius. Fixing that now.

FFS Covid, or opportunistic infection following repeat COVID exposure. I can’t take you seriously.

The older I get, the more I realize that the single greatest challenge for any ambitious person is eliminating the guilt associated with free time and rest.

Yes, moat is gone, but also this:
Technical moats are mostly over at this point. If you’re building something that is meant to be durable, the only moats now are: • Proprietary data • Network effects • A physical component
