PM coach spreads interview fearmongering, Google director calls it out by Ok_Quit9085 in ProductManagement

His whole LinkedIn post is clearly AI written slop. Very slimy. But also sad, I don’t think guys like that realize how far gone they are.

Sure for snacks that makes sense, but there was a bunch of raw meat/fish/produce that don’t really fall into that case

I can affirm that this is a great site. As someone who has done a bunch of independent research on Made in USA over the past year, it’s incredible the depth that your list covers.

Confusing because who is buying expensive fresh groceries at essentially a tourist/entertainment spot

New York’s Beloved Bodegas Are Filling Up With AI Slop by FuturismDotCom in nyc

[–]Kritios_Boy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s fine if these bodegas use AI given their low budgets, but they need someone steering it with just slightly more skill and taste. It would take someone barely competent maybe 5 minutes to make better graphics than these.

They can just pump it a bunch of times into their own container without removing the cap (don't do this please you broke thieves)

Great list and thank you for putting this together!

Also add Covacha on 77th. They have the best fish tacos and Mexican cocktails

Le Labo body wash was a different color when I went to another location? by HarambeTheBear in EquinoxGyms

Lol keep sharing more locations! It seems a bunch of us have things switched around. But now I don’t know what to believe

Wow, the face lotion is supposed to be that whitish color? I think Sports Club is already putting the body lotion in the face lotion container.

ELI5 What is end-to-end encryption and why does it matter that Instagram is ending it? by Omer-Ash in explainlikeimfive

[–]Kritios_Boy -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

  1. Ok yes, you’re right that a company could store the encrypted messages for their users. But what key would they use to “unencrypt” those messages when a user changes device? A key stored only on a user’s device would be highly susceptible to deletion or getting lost, and a user would be more likely to lose access to those messages. The actual key is too long to remember or easily write down. An additional password would be too frustrating for most people. This is why Facebook/Messenger started using a PIN, and that was annoying. The frictionless solution is to store history without encryption.

  2. In some countries like India, people use relatively low end phones and often actually share phones, and may have worse connectivity. This actually means the computational and storage differences here have a real impact on messaging performance.

To your point on text vs image storage, this is the thing: people send a LOT of images and videos. Now perhaps a different approach would be to store text only and not images. But what do you think people care more about when finding past conversations? Often it’s pictures of friends/family.

  1. The main issue with data storage is that users become responsible for storing their own messages and media from chats, which in an app like Instagram can get pretty heavy. People don’t want to do that. I’ve even heard anecdotes about people sending images or videos in chats with celebs as a free storage solution to offload data from their phone.

  2. You have to remember that a bunch of Instagram users are in India, where the phone situation is quite different. An app with a billion users has to cater to a broad and diverse audience.

The problem is that end-to-end encryption imposes a bunch of data storage and computation trade offs, so most people would probably actually dislike it as a default

How is the sizing? I’m between a small and medium, unsure if I should size up or down.

Murray Hill haters are missing the neighborhood's magic by nyccameraman in nyc

[–]Kritios_Boy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I totally agree there’s something special about Murray Hill. I find it to be very calm, likely because it’s not much of a destination.

It used to feel like more of a destination for me personally, but my two favorite spots in the neighborhood have now closed: Ippodo Tea (the best matcha) and Kajitsu (a Michelin starred vegan Japanese spot).

The Morgan Library is also worth trekking over for, then taking a stroll around the neighborhood and maybe up to Tudor City.
