Trying to keep our kid off screen time until he is at least 2 (ideally I'd push for 3) but dreading trying to navigate suitable content and platforms when it does happen.

This is a really lucid nuts and bolts expert's explanation of what "AI agents" need to actually do "under the hood" of your phone or computer in order to perform the tasks they're promising. Basically: say goodbye to all separation between apps and OS, and any notion of privacy and security.

It kinda sounds like they have no clue where to get a podcast.

Another day, another phone call from a parent who can't understand why they are being stopped from seeing their child, and have to pay thousands to go through the court to get access.

What a waste for all.

In the middle, a child who hasn't had contact for months.

We need change.

Resolution for the year is to try and watch more films to cut down my embarrassingly long watch list on Trakt. Off to a good start so far:
-Wicked
-Lara Croft: Tomb Raider
-Office Space

735 days and I'm finally giving up on DuoLingo, the ads are too much and I feel I'm not making notable progress. Moving over to Lingodeer will see how it goes. #DuoLingo #LingoDeer #languagelearning

Think this applies to any form of media or entertainment, being there day 1 is cool but people are busy let them enjoy it just as much when they get a chance.
