@ctjlewis I side with him. Most people don’t look at the scale so it’s responsible to use an appropriate one — this did not happen, and he adjusted. I think you might be overreacting.

@paulgabrail @sweatystartup You missed the premise. This isn’t an accounting question, it’s a finance question. Not only is it cheap debt, but low interest rate liabilities have positive real returns in high inflation markets. Paying this off early would yield a negative real return.

@levelsio Over engineering, especially over designing, can be a huge impediment. People with “creative” jobs often use their job as a chance to artistically express themselves, which may lead to a stellar project long term, but isn’t conducive to finding PMF or your first customers

@paulg I think a big trick here is learning to give compliments. When you meet someone, give them a small, genuine compliment and watch the awkwardness go away. It's hard but it works. What other tricks would you recommend, @paulg ?

@sama Is the disabling chat history and disabling of data being included in training sets keying off of one boolean or two? If one, I would love to see it made two. I could see many cases where users may want to retain chat history without having it in training data.
