  • I’ve used this giorgio regni app on Android for years with various random earbuds.

    The only option on its menu that reliably does anything for me is called “morphine pain killer”, but it was a game changer for me for incapacitating sea sickness (believe me I had tried so many things I don’t think I had any placebo potential left). On land, I’ve found it effective for post surgery pain, nerve pain, and even the odd depressive crying jag. I guess at this point I’m a believer so I’d be curious to know what effect it has on a “fresh” patient. I don’t think I’ve tried it just for kicks, though, so not sure what you’ll notice if you’re already feeling ok.








  • I made an paid account with medium to see posts related to my work, and I really enjoy it. I get an email every day with a handful of articles based on what I said my interests are/followed authors and I can read them with none of the issues other people are talking about (obviously because I’ve already caved to their business model, just pointing out the annoyances do actually stop, unlike some premium services).

    If you think your readers will follow you to a paid platform, I don’t see anything wrong with it. But if they don’t want to pay, it sounds like it will be a bad experience. I would be skeptical of having a broader reach, also, since there is a lot of competition, not all of it human.










  • This is true, but I think the bigger deal is that some people actually like driving (maybe not the trafficky daily commute). Some speeders fit this category, but also others who just like being precise on the curves, being in the flow of an uncrowded road, and even expressing their neighborliness to others.

    So far, self driving cars drive very clumsily even when they are safe. More scope for embarrassment and frustration than anything else if you identify with the behavior of your car. “Chill mode” for example, chooses the right of a four lane road until the last minute instead of making lane changes when space allows. Awful.

    But even if the cars get better at it, some people will miss driving.
