The driver makes more than Uber does on (almost?) every ride. So they did.

Uber doesn't pay the driver for their time, nor wear or insurance on their car. Uber doesn't even consider drivers employees unless legally required to. I should hope Uber's cut is a tiny fraction since all they provide is a bit of software while taking control of markets and pricing for themselves.

If you genuinely refuse to use AI for any part of your job in 2026 you are the moron.

Of course, you can go too far in the other direction but that's not what your comment is describing.

Found one of the cult members.

Canada just gives you a fixed amount of cash every year for the sales tax that they estimate that you paid on a regular amount of consumption (HST credit) which solved that problem.

I don't think it's fair that someone who earns $400k and spends $400k is paying roughly the same taxes as someone earning $400k and spending $100k. You should pay more taxes the more luxurious your life is, not the more productive you are.

Where's the other 300k going? If you aren't spending it, what does it matter if it all gets taxed to nothing? And if you end up spending it, then boom there's your consumption that needs to be taxed.

Grading assignments just punishes people that don't cheat on their homework. It's worse than worthless, it actively helps the worst students.

Yeah, pretty much. You can make enough money in 10-15 years in tech in America to last a lifetime in Europe, even without the remote job.

You still might need a resident visa.

A semi-skilled English-speaking customer service agent in PH makes less than $700 a month to put this into perspective.

Working abroad is a totally reasonable proposition compared to working in the Philippines.

Working from the beach is much more enjoyable than working from a cubicle in Toronto in January all work tasks being equal.

Much cheaper too, ridiculously enough.

If you pay for beach accommodation instead of a dwelling in some higher-priced metropolitan area, sure. As an add-on though, still more expensive.

I'd wager that most people are working towards a home base in the lands they're used to, then go on trips every now and then. Selling your metropolitan home base gets you the permanent beach lifestyle for sure, but permanently removing oneself from more densely populated areas is not for everyone.

MyFitnessPal takes a lot of clicks to log one meal, I can just use natural language with openclaw.

What is the accuracy of this method vs manual entry?

When I message my claw "Mark that I had 825 calories for lunch today", it has marked down 825 correctly 100% of the time so far.

It shows me way fewer ads than all the popular fitness apps and loads way quicker since it doesn't have to load like 10MB of ads for me to enter one number, so it seems like a good improvement.

I do not think it's an improvement over an excel sheet, but as the average openclaw user, I would rather pay anthropic $10/day in API credits than create a google sheets document.

I do something similar with Claude Code. I say, "I ate a single serving of that Toasted Beef Ravioli that Aldi sells." Claude web searches, finds it, gets its nutrition info, then uses gspread to add it to the daily food log tab of my spreadsheet.

So much less hassle, lower activation energy needed than with MyFitnessPal.

And, no need for OpenClaw either

But you need to know that the meal was 825 calories which these calorie tracker apps calculate for you with all the ingredient amounts.

There is no way a condo would continue to cost $2500/mo in a world where there isn't a concentration of well-paid office jobs in that location.

NK is safe from invasion because of conventional artillery pointed at Seoul.

That's why they were able to develop nuclear weapons in the first place.
