HELP! Anyone recommend any alternatives? Aside from the above , have been thinking about this recently… a lot. As an industrial designer, I only use photoshop & illustrator frequently. (Indesign & media encoder occasionally) … alongside my CAD, rendering software + figma etc. … but pay top $ for cc & Adobe acrobat pro just crashes constantly Heard Affinity designer is good? What about compatibility? Anything else I’m missing?

I just cancelled my Adobe licence after many years as a customer. The new terms give Adobe "worldwide royalty-free licence to reproduce, display, distribute" or do whatever they want with any content I produce using their software. This is beyond insane. No creator in their right mind can accept this . You pay a huge monthly subscription and they want to own your content and your entire business as well. Going to have to learn some new tools.

The only ones not to be disrupted by AI. I’ve been thinking about this quite a bit, and I think the following professions will not be displaced by AI; every other profession will be impacted to displaced: -Trades* -Leaders -Teachers -Politicians -Entrepreneurs -Performance arts -High-touch healthcare -High-end personal services** -Event / community organizers -Craftsmen and innovative artists -Cutting-edge inventors, scientists Version 1.0: I will certainly update this in future. *Wages likely to drop due to an influx of workers. **many roles fit here: concierge, therapists, beauty, fitness coaches, account reps, wealth managers, wait staff, etc.

Wow — @katzonearth busts Senator Katie Britt on the sex trafficking anecdote she used in her rebuttal, revealing (courtesy of @MarshaBlackburn’s site) it happened to the woman she referred to 20 years ago, in Mexico Needless to say, Joe Biden was not president of Mexico in 2004

@jowyang @jowyang, just let LinkedIn display the QR. No need for a snapshot. And they don't accept, they request to connect and you accept (later if you're busy).

Hack: I have saved the QR code to my LinkedIn account in the favorites folder on my phone, so I can quickly show it at a business meeting or event. LinkedIn does have some issues; for instance, the other party must find the “connect” link, or no connection is made. LinkedIn is my preferred way to connect for business, as it allows you to see their resume, social graph, and message them.

@mrbrown Rep Tom Cotton is an embarassment. His interview of Kim Huat is zenophobic and disgusting.

Google is in trouble: - AI search adoption is quickly rising, especially amongst the tech influencers and developer community. - Jeff Bezos has backed Perplexity a direct rival to Google search - Microsoft has backed OpenAI, a different way to get information instead of search - Bing is becoming more relevant, as it’s integrated with OpenAI products - Google morale is down, there have been layoffs, and more layoffs coming. Of course, Google will use this energy and do a turnaround. They have enough resources and talent to figure out their path forward.

@mrbrown By any chance, did you operate the DTP service at Penang Lane and Clemenceau? I went there often.

My first Mac was an SE. It had 4MB of memory and a 20MB hard drive inside. I also administered a university lab of Mac Pluses and SE’s. I soon upgraded my SE to an SE/30 with a graphics card inside, to drive an external monitor for my DTP business. Happy 40th birthday, Mac!

@danielgoh I don't mind not seeing the charge at terminals, but I don't want to see all these micro-transactions on my bank statement.

Basically whoever from LTA signed off on the SimplyGo UAT needs to get fired. Such a simple UX oversight.

@paulg A wealth tax is equitable, progressive and does not "push anyone down".

Paul Graham@paulg·
There are two ways to achieve equality of outcomes: to raise up the bottom, and to push down on the top. And since raising up the bottom is so laborious, people focused on equality of outcomes will always be tempted by the seemingly easier expedient of pushing down on the top.
