There's nothing scientists won't try to measure, so I was wondering whether they tried to measure the meaningfulness of our lives.

Turns out... Of course, they did. But I also discovered something very interesting. Merely measuring it increases meaning!

@gummihaf It's a lot more useful to get a small group of users who are really passionate about your product and are willing to go deep and help create the right product than a large group of users who don't care as much.

@gummihaf I meant misinfo - even if you take monetary aspect out of it, you’ll still see it getting exploited. So the question is whether you should allow misinformation on any of these networks or figure out a way to block it.

@gummihaf How should they handle it?

@BrentHurley I had the same experience with Instacart and Google Express (they both had higher prices than in the store). Last time I checked (about 2 years ago) Instacart had about 25 percent markup on average and google express was 11 percent - but neither were upfront about it.

What a great week with the @essential mini headsets. Not saying this cause I work here. Have used probably 100+ headsets and for $50 these sound really nice. Small size makes a difference @toofan

This looks _really_ useful and effective; nice example of cell phones replacing everything with cheaper and better apps, in this case, security cameras.

[Dwipal Desai @toofan]

@ipaul2or3 Yep, working on it. Should be done in a few days.
