Raising a child is noteworthy. Same for the millions of people who do it now, and the millions of people who did it before them. Just because millions of people do it doesn't diminish the significance of it. Framing it as such, is like saying there's no point running a race if you don't come first. A personal victory is still a victory. If it matters to you, then that's all that matters. All of those things like authoring papers, winning great prizes, setting records, will all be eventually be lost to time.


I was pleasantly surprised to find one of the major London cycle lanes that goes from Tower Bridge to Greenwich gives priority to cyclists crossing side roads https://maps.app.goo.gl/b3SweRqzvNehTcE38



The way I've heard it phrased is "Non-fiction teaches us about the world, fiction teaches us about ourselves."

I'm very interested to know more about what "editing prompts" is! And where to find/use it?


Just hover over your last prompt and an edit icon should pop up under the prompt


I may be misrepresenting, as I have used the feature only a couple of times, and not recently.

But, if you edit your prompt (or subsequent prompt), you're creating a branch in the conversation and you can switch between branches.


This will be fun to play around with. Thank you!


It's one thing to be curious as to why they couldn't have housed their mother, but it's possible to ask with empathy and compassion rather than assumptions and judgment.


One use case is the web view allows you to check emails of a workspace that requires a Google Device policy to be installed to use the native apps. Of course, the simple solution is to be given a workplace phone or don't check emails when away from a computer.


Yes, they are. They are also listed on their "Partner and Reseller" page: https://mullvad.net/en/help/partnerships-and-resellers/
