it's kinda awesome that we let an entire medium of communication be basically killed so that scam call centers can make $500 a year

Shout out to @Nostrich I'm digging the web app experience. I was held hostage by others simply because they were "good enough". But nostrich did a great job of paying attention to responsiveness, good visual design and reliability from what I've seen so far #grownostr.

AirBNB getting absolutely bodied so bad that their PR Gestapo got activated... View quoted note →

This is what they'd do to the whole internet forever if they could.

"Decentralize" everything is code word for "I'm retarded" in my world. Some things should be centralized or at least businesses with high incentive to deliver quality, reliability and satisfaction.

whatever you prefer, I have both!) It gets ratings from all booking platforms, normalizes them to show the actual score (eg a booking site where most hotels are always between 4 and 4.7 means you can normalize that to a 0 and 5) It also uses AI vision models to rate hotels based on how they look And it browses the internet for actual experiences (think blogs and Reddit posts) to get the real opinion about them outside reviews And it's starting to work, I just stayed in this beautiful boutique apartment hotel called Woo Suites in Athens for $400/night. Clean, nice minimalist interior, working cold AC, central, excellent staff, great healthy breakfast, and we found it through Hotelist! It's free, I don't make any money on it (actually I lose thousands per month on it to collect data via APIs and web scrapers) and there's no affiliate money bs like other booking sites (they will increase ranking of hotels if they pay sites a higher commission!)

Jensen says a lot of dumb shit too but it's hard not to like him in moments like these. Excellence mindset.

I saw a prosecutor write Untied States on an official federal indictment recently. We are speed running Idiocracy + Mandibles + Eagle Eye.

I'm a single issue voter and I'm voting for Harambe.

I wonder if El Salvador could leap frog a lot of countries by just having smart investment/rule of law around confidential compute.
