This is a good reminder and I haven't seen it recently from @patio11

Patrick McKenzie@patio11

Oh I somehow missed my yearly exhortation: If you work in tech, you are likely underinsured on term life. You should have plural million dollars of coverage, including *outside* coverage offered by your employer. This is so cheap you will barely notice it.

@Jeremy_JFischer @bdefig Try it for a week. You won't go back.

@1stringham @bdefig "Life is too short for phone cases." 😂

Jeremy Fischer@Jeremy_JFischer·17 Ara

Coming from iPhone, the "inertial" gesture phyiscs on the Google Pixel are so tough! I have to exaggeratedly throw a window to get it to close or scroll. Not a great experience. other than that, the phone is sick though! haha

@Jeremy_JFischer @bdefig No insurance for me. I just don't drop my phone.

English

Jeremy Fischer@Jeremy_JFischer·17 Ara

@1stringham @bdefig Do you get phone insurance? Like AppleCare or other? I don't. So if I spend over $1000 on the thing, it's getting a helmet.

@Jeremy_JFischer @bdefig Stop putting your phone in a case and actually experience using them how they were designed. Life is too short for phone cases. I haven't used one for over a decade. I mean, if you have broken multiple phones then probably invest in one. But I don't think everyone needs one.

Jeremy Fischer@Jeremy_JFischer·17 Ara

@bdefig Lol... no. We're all putting our phones in cases anyway, Apple.

@bennelson Same reason I guess

@1stringham You aren’t getting off easy. Why are you the way you are?

15 years on Twitter. Is it time to give it the bird? (I’ve been sitting on that one for awhile 🤣) I’m also on the other billionaire’s text-based social media. I can promise more of the same lurking you get here.

@1stringham I’m still here despite my lack of posting. My lurking is strong, however.

Really hope Tech goes and makes some noise in the CCG! 💙

This looks almost exactly like the first time we played Texas Tech. Their defense is legit & our offense just can’t move the ball. I thought there was no way we’d make as many mistakes in the CCG but I was wrong. Disappointing end to the season but so proud of this team!!🤙

@gregwrubell How does the Big 12 determine home and visitor status for the championship game?

Arizona is a 2.5-point favorite on the road at ASU tonight. An Arizona win clinches a Big 12 championship game berth for BYU.

@kidehen @sundarpichai It put the correct stacking on both sides

Kingsley Uyi Idehen@kidehen·21 Kas

@sundarpichai Very nice! Variant in color, by simply using the original as input. Prompt: Create a rendition of the correct stacking, but in color. Little Issue: I didn't ask for both in the rendition.

@aryehazan @lacker "Finite does not mean much if you can't tell any practical difference between it and infinite." Steven L. Peck, A Short Stay in Hell

English

Aryeh Kontorovich@aryehazan·19 Kas

@lacker that’s actually a profound and profoundly depressing take the number of theorems graspable by the human mind might well be finite in fact, it kind of has to be (otoh it’s probably large enough for us to never functionally run out)

my aspiring mathematician nephew is concerned that maybe someday we'll run out of nontrivial theorems to prove he knows there are infinitely many *theorems* but worries that there might only be many finitely interesting ones I told him that all the mathematicians I know think otherwise what argument would put him at ease?

@patio11 I'd love to hear how you're teaching your young children to be financially literate and to develop healthy financial habits.

@patio11 I have never heard of someone taking abacus lessons. Is this unique to Japanese culture, or is it something I should consider for my children in America (who only speak English)?

Patrick McKenzie@patio11·12 Kas

In today’s “I love the Internet”: Ruriko wanted the kids to take abacus lessons, for the usual reasons (makes kids better at mental math, better understanding of what is going on in algorithms, etc). This is traditionally done by sending them to after-school tutoring.

Anyone trying to sell their tickets to the BYU-Utah game? I live down in Arizona and haven’t been to a game in years. Hoping to go to the game with my brothers but prices are a bit high right now. If you can repost it would be appreciated 🤙🏼

@bdefig I want the 15 year quality with an easy way to plug in technology (and replace it when it ages out). So I can set up notifications for when laundry is done or when the fridge gets left open etc.

This would crush

my boyfriend wants to start a company called “just” and manufacture stuff like a refrigerator that’s just a refrigerator or a washing machine that just washes your clothes and their products have no tech and work for at least 15+ years.
