@INManofLeisure @MarketPalmer_ Sounds awesome, thanks for your service, you deserve it!

@deedydas Annoyingly required if you have one of their AI glasses

[Zak Stern @ZakStern]

@BStulberg Generally agree with this. But I think becoming fragile probably expands your overall lifespan

[Zak Stern @ZakStern]

@Chris_arnade Munich has great energy

@shimritby Let's get an AI Pro Family plan!

@CoachDanGo Dan - were you mainly in the big cities? Agree on walking being the #1 differentiator. They are pretty car dependent outside of the major cities though. Wonder if the obesity rate is higher in smaller cities / suburban areas.

@sporadica Privacy is one of those things where you don't care until suddenly you do. I'm less worried about the companies, more worried about the governments applying pressure to the companies to share individuals data who may look "suspicious"

@deedydas For many of these people, their entire identity is their job / career. Getting huge amounts of money doesn't suddenly break that and allow them to relax and enjoy life. A "tough" realization

@joshwoodward Just realized I can long press to pin. Pleasantly surprised!

[Zak Stern @ZakStern]

@joshwoodward Josh - just let me pin a few chats to the top of my chat history...

[Zak Stern @ZakStern]

@fan_hongda Don't underestimate Kushner. You should listen to some podcasts he did during the Biden presidency - he is very well versed in the politics of the region. Also, negotiation skills are critical in the business world so I wouldn't label them as inexperienced.

@SahilBloom Which mattress do you have?

[Zak Stern @ZakStern]

@paulg Also a break from dishes and laundry

[Zak Stern @ZakStern]

@levelsio How about Switzerland? European pace of life where things aren't that slow and work. You get winters but if you like skiing then you actually enjoy them.

@joshwoodward @GeminiApp Need Gemini to be able to build up context across my chats. I find I'm starting over too frequently or searching for chats which are actually quite hard to find

[Zak Stern @ZakStern]

@joshwoodward Need a scroll to bottom button!

@JamesIvings Agree that for most cases, hotels win. Airbnb generally wins for: longer term stay, family, larger group, locations with limited hotels like residential neighborhoods.

[Zak Stern @ZakStern]

@the_transit_guy I hear your point but it's a bad example. In fact, I'd argue Japan also botched the airport / train setup. The bullet trains don't run to any airport and the intl airports (Narita and Kansai) are too far from the city centers with limited direct trains

[Zak Stern @ZakStern]

@signulll Why does home ownership matter? Marriage and fertility rate going down are real issues (population collapse) but home ownership feels like a red herring.

@joshwoodward Congrats on the launch...would love an expand option directly in the Gemini app to view the video in Fullscreen landscape on the phone. Seems I need to download first.
