The gas prices out here are bonkers. I changed my commute to VTA light rail + Caltrain and a lot of walking just to avoid filling up so much. Definitively makes the commute worse compared to driving, public transit is messy and inefficient here, but gas prices are close to double what they were pre-war (at cheap stations like Rotten Robbie at least).

I hate when the information I’m trying to get is trapped in a video. It’s not often that I can’t find text alternatives, but it happens on occasion. Being trapped watching a video whose purpose is only partly to deliver information (the other part to game the algo and appease sponsors), when I could have found the info I needed in 30 seconds if it was text – that’s my idea of torture.

One of the very few legitimately game-changing aspects of AI in my life is video summaries.

Most of such scanning would typically happen at the time of upload before it gets encrypted.

Holy shit I would take this over an open floor plan any day. I dream of having my own quasi-isolated space.
