I was super tired of how much junk was in my RSS feeder (lots of promotional content, occasionally things in other languages, etc.) so I asked Claude Code for help in setting up a better system. Pretty happy with how this turned out!
Same, and no, no hope. Money trumps all – most people are in this for the buyout, and when they get it, their users don't mean anything anymore. The best we can do is just use the services we like and know that any additional service we add will someday be a big fiasco to transition out of. Which, by the way, is why we should demand that every service make portability a standard.
Yes, the bubble is poised to pop. The vast majority of AI startups are grasping in the dark for an idea that will capture enough market share that will make them sustainable, and very few will find that. Right now VCs are dumping tons of money into the space to find the things that work, but eventually the vast majority of those bets are going to lose and those startups will fail. The media will go bananas trying to paint this as the end of tech, the end of AI, the end of capitalism, but in reality, it'll just mean a bunch of startup founders and their employees will lose their income stream and move on to other things. The cycle repeats every time a new technology gains traction.
Fully agree but in this case it's a lit bit different.
The only advantage you need to have to create an AI startup is too know how to write a prompt. Seems weird ..
Which is why the words "proof" and "fact" have no place in science.
Science is built upon a foundation of falsifiability. The pinnacle of understanding in science is an accepted theory which can, of course, be discarded if significant evidence to the contrary comes to light.
Would love to see the study. Per the other comments, it may mean that you can't concentrate the walking and the sitting? That is, 22 minutes of walking every 2 hours could be a lot different from 44 minutes every 4 hours.
This wouldn't be much different from any other process. And, of course, could call into question many other things we have fixed times in the day for.
Thanks! This seems to support the general thought I put up. You have to substitute sitting time with exercise. The article talked about people that would sit for 10-12 hours a day, and how if they sat that long, adding exercise did not help. My assertion is that added exercise has to reduce the time sitting.
I'm actually struggling to imagine sitting 12 hours a day and also getting real exercise in. Unless they don't count walking around the house to eat and such, that is a crap load of sitting.
I've seen articles purporting this too and it always makes me wonder if my exercise time counts as standing time to them or not. I go for an hour run 5 days a week, do I count that as standing time?
