This is so spot on.


Does this violate any of the social media terms? I wonder if they will just ban this at some point.


They're getting a piece of the pie, no? I wouldn't be surprised if they were also doing it.


Why would they if it increases engagement? They encourage other technologies, such as “filters” that create images loosely based on your appearance.

Giving accounts to people that don’t exist is not much of a distinction from how people currently use it.


Meta’s already added their own versions with celebs to instagram. The pictures of the people are not AI-generated but all the interactions are with a chat bot.

I wrote my first quick blog piece on the questions I think have worked best for me when checking references.

I would love any feedback HN has.

Trying to understand how in the same short form piece we get: > "I still bristle at the word “career”. Not for me."

And then end it with:

> "The skills and connections I developed at Mapbox set me up for a smooth and satisfying career transition."

So do you have a career or not?


I once bought a brown/bronze car at a discount. It was the ugliest color I had ever seen on a car, but I still drove it for many months.

I really hated it, but what could I do? I couldn't afford another car, so I had to live with it every single day. I'm guessing author feels something similar about having a career.

garbage


This is funny since one of General Assembly's first blog post was about how this concept of skipping lines wasn't a viable lean start-up idea. Take a look. http://generalassemb.ly/blog/a-case-study-on-getting-started...


Apples and oranges -- I think framing is a big issue: "I ordered 30min in advance from my phone and will take food to go" vs "I would like to pay a premium to get ahead of others waiting in line". The latter obviously stings of people's differing time value of money (or I guess more appropriately, money value of their time).


Yea you are right to some extent, but then what is the difference between seamless pickup or calling and ordering(human interaction, scary i know) and PayDragon? Seamless has a great mobile app too. I think they are entering a red sea.
