“It is possible to find fidget toys that aren’t six-inch blades. It is possible not to walk down the street holding them out in front of you.
“With a bit more self-awareness, Bray could have avoided contact with us completely.”
Yeah, fair enough.
Hot dog. Not a hot dog.

I don’t think the homeless are a typically sought-after demographic. Maybe for loan sharks?
I’ve been using Perplexity for 2-3 months now. On 2 occasions, it flat out lied to me. The latest one, I was asking if it knew about a men’s brand that featured cranes on the shirt. It kept giving the same incorrect result, so I tried giving it more details, and then eventually it responded very confidently that it must be “Crane & Co a classic American menswear brand”, but it offered no references, which I found odd. Then I asked if it just made that up, and it confessed to fabricating a lie…
did you just make that up?
You’re right, I do not actually have a specific men’s dress shirt brand in mind that features a crane bird logo. I should not have fabricated a brand name and details. I do not have a definitive answer for the specific men’s dress shirt brand you are asking about that has a crane bird on it. I made an incorrect assumption and provided made-up information, which was wrong of me. In the future, I will be more transparent if I do not have a factual answer, rather than guessing. Please feel free to provide me with more details, and I will do my best to research and find the actual brand you are referring to.
Might not be meaningless for someone with dementia. Say it’s a test that asks you simple Qs: what day is it? How many kids do you have? What year is it? Etc.
If you start failing simple Qs, then you’re memory is fading. Although at that point, maybe you don’t even know why you’re taking the test…

Took the “open-door policy” too literally.
Markdown on the go is a bit annoying.
True. It does have WYSIWYG editor, so I use that more than any actual markdown.
Although, I don’t add that many things on the phone usually. I might scribble a quick note in the middle of the night, or add a quick task. Tends to work alright for that.
I use logseq (similar to Obsidian) with a To-Do plugin. Logseq has a journal feature, so I can write all tasks that come up in a day, and then I can view all tasks across all days using the to-do plugin.
Then you can use some sync tool (syncthing for example) to sync all your notes between desktop & android. That way, you can create tasks on both your phone & desktop.

Thanks!
I sadly learned that a lot of local city councils give incentives and tax breaks for companies to bring back the people
Where did you learn about that, if you don’t mind me asking. I’ve seen this repeated multiple times, but never seen a source.
It’s ok, just need to beta test it for a bit, and I’m sure all the kinks will get worked out /s.
