Could maybe try some machine learning for moderation. I'd imagine the non-contributors share some amount of the same communication patterns.

Every time I see a problem that requires a lot of repetitive work that most people would not like to spend a lot of time doing, I always try to think of how it could be automated with computers that don't get tired

If we're talking Windows vs OSX, I would definitely say I'm more productive when programming on a Macbook.

If we're talking a two-year-old Macbook vs the latest Macbook, I don't think there's much of a noticeable difference in productivity

I game, watch youtube, stream movies/shows. You don't really notice that you have gigabit until you need to download a game or something (if you torrent, I'm sure you'll notice it a lot).

With streaming, I honestly can't remember the last time it had to pause for buffering, even on WiFi; so that's nice

I also renounced Facebook, Twitter, etc. (for reasons different than yours, though) and I don't regret it one bit.

Now I spend my time learning new things instead of scrolling for hours through a repetitive feed of clickbait and people just looking for attention

Yep. We didn't have a style standard and all had different opinions. One day we just stopped splitting hairs and went with StandardJS.

Over a year later and haven't looked back. Codebase consistency is far more important than whatever particular style you use

Gym memberships are particularly terrible at this in my experience

That was indeed that last one where doing a cancel was "involved". But it only involved sending a letter by certified mail, and all the info/details were on their web site.

Just a bug report: Closing the modal for the promo video on your site should pause the video

I am super intrigued by this. In case any others are curious like I was, here's a tutorial for building a Google Assistant bot: https://www.gupshup.io/developer/docs/bot-platform/guide/how...

Used this repo for reference : https://github.com/actions-on-google/actions-on-google-nodej... + Google Developer Codelab for DialogFlow

Honestly, I hope he gets competitors. How great would fast food be if it was all made exactly the same way every time, with high quality ingredients?

Compared with 50 years ago, it already is.

No reason to stop improving though

As long as we can see the ingredients it seems like a great idea, better than what is on offer currently. My suspicion is that the machines otherwise would look like the inside of McFlurry machines rather soon.
