I've learned that one of the best ways to evaluate someone is to watch how you behave around them. If you're compelled to micromanage, dumb things down, or, perhaps worst, bend the truth for them, you made a mistake hiring them.

I nearly switched to iphone this year, but the one thing keeping me: Gemini + Kindle is an exceptional user experience. It has fundamentally changed how I read, particularly for esoterica Tap hold bottom bar -> select confusing section -> get answer from Gemini

@djpardis so true, and reasoning around these higher abstractions is prob for now where people will be able to provide value as the lower-level work is increasingly automated

does anyone know if market changes are driven primarily by the sentiments of a select few, or sentiment of the masses? i.e. what's the power law exponent of the rank-ordered distribution?
