tl:dr: We’re facing problems in implementing human nuances to our conversational chatbot to make it truly experience consciousness. Need suggestions and guidance on all or eithet of the problems listed below: 1. Conversation Starter / Reset If you text someone after a day, you don’t jump straight back into yesterday’s topic. You usually start soft. If it’s been a week, the tone shifts even more. It depends on multiple factors like intensity of last chat, time passed, and more, right? Our bot sometimes: dives straight into old context, sounds robotic acknowledging time gaps, continues mid thread unnaturally. How do you model this properly? Rules? Classifier? Any ML, NLP Model? 2.

I run a private M&A advisory team that strictly focuses on buying and selling iOS/Android apps. Last year we closed over $3,000,000 in deal volume. I constantly see indie devs listing their apps on open marketplaces (like Flippa or Acquire), waiting 3 months, dealing with 50+ tire-kickers who have zero funds, and eventually giving up. Here is the harsh truth about why apps don't sell on public boards, and how institutional buyers actually evaluate your app in 2026. **1. Phantom MRR** Public marketplaces allow founders to set their own prices based on flawed math. A founder will have a $10k month because of an annual subscription spike or a viral TikTok, and suddenly they ...

Anyone else absolutely sick of seeing those 'limited-time' deals or 'huge discounts' that turn out to be barely anything once you do a quick price check? It feels like I spend more time trying to verify a "deal" than actually enjoying any savings. For years, I've been skeptical, always cross-referencing prices, and what I've found confirms my suspicions: most "sales" are just clever marketing designed to make you *feel* like you're getting a steal. Recently, I decided to track a few items I needed to see just how much real value was out there versus the perceived value. Here's a quick rundown of some actual experiences: * **The ...

After a lot of screen time my eyes were getting tired, and I kept forgetting to take breaks. So we built a small Mac app that just sits in the menu bar and does one thing: every 20 minutes it reminds you to look into the distance. **What it does:** * Runs in the menu bar (no dock icon) * 20-minute timer, then a notification + a short popup: "Look into the distance" * Timer resumes correctly after sleep/wake * Optional launch at login so you don’t have to remember to start it No accounts, no analytics, no extra features — just the reminder. Built with Swift/SwiftUI for macOS. It’s on the Mac App Store as [Eye Rest Break](https://apps.apple.com/en/app/eyes-rest-break/id6759...

I have the original literider, twice. I mainly use my ebike to get to school, work, the store and home. I have less than 1k miles on both bikes. Ive talked about having their bikes on here before but an actual post. The first time i got the literider, I kept getting flats for no reason, but there wouldn't be any issues and it wouldnt deflate all the way. I can remember 3 times it kept getting flats. My uncle found a tiny hole in it and put slime in the tire so it can stop getting flats. Then it got stolen without the battery, with an extra battery in hand I got another literider, the open box one. The quality of the bike was fineIt was larger so the battery is useless to me now But i...

Let's be real, this is the complaining side of the honkai husbando reddit scene, and I wouldn't miss it for the world. I love all my fellow complainers. Complaining is healthy! especially for those of us who like to look at all our options, it isn't reasonable to always be mister brightside. So apologies all around for the peppy tone of the title. However, a while ago, there were people who felt that maybe this sub needed a little less doom and gloom. I disagree! I heartily disagree! When you're feeling gloomy and doomy, there is nothing more annoying than someone else wagging their finger at you and telling you *they* don't think things are that bad and you should ...

Just need to get this off my chest because I’m honestly getting tired of this. I had an event yesterday evening, and since they didn’t provide meal, I went to nearby KFC to grab a quick meal. Once my order was ready, I went to the counter to pick up my tray. The store manager stared at me and asked, "Is this order correct?" I said yes and showed my receipt. Then, he literally pulled the tray back and asked me again, "Islam ke?". I was like ah **** here we go again. Obviously i said "bukan" since im not a muslim and he keeps asking repeatedly with a somewhat annoying skeptical look in his face. It turned into a literal tarik tali for my food in front of th...

# Chapter 1: The Plasma Sky The São Paulo sky was an open wound of sickly green. Plasma flashes streaked through the air like whips of light, leaving scars of fire that burned straight into my retinas, even when I blinked. The smell was worse than the light: an unbearable mix of electric ozone, burnt flesh, and the acidic tang of molten steel. Every breath was a physical struggle to keep my lungs functioning against the heavy soot in the air. Santos had become a burden. I dragged him by the straps of his tactical vest, hearing the dry scrape of his boots catching on the shattered asphalt of the Centro. The city ruins seemed to groan beneath our feet, the concrete cracking from the residu...

Last year our family sat at the kitchen table with a calculator and a calendar. Travel baseball season was coming up. The numbers were staring back at us. Tournament fees. Gas for weekend drives. Hotels. New gear. Again. We asked ourselves the question that I see people asking all the time: Is travel ball really worth it? Because the truth is, it adds up fast. There's no guarantee our son will become a great player. Most kids don't. The math doesn't always make sense. Then we watched our son at practice. Not because he was the best player on the field but because of how he moved and how focused he looked. He really wanted to play. We realized that travel ball isn't...

While I was getting my five hour iron infusion on Friday, I ordered Thousand Wishes and CIR body butter, plus the CIR moisturizing body wash. I have all of the other products in the old packaging which is fine! I tried to order Viva Brazil, but it got kicked out. Dreaming of Rio didn’t even show up. When I got to the store I took a quick look at my bag, and picked up the two tropicals. I LOVE the banana in Dreaming of Rio. One of the employees asked if I saw the new candles, Day at the Café (?) and Sweet Shop. They were SO tempting but I don’t need any more coffee candles, or any candles really. So I reluctantly passed. I went to do early voting and was in line for an hour in t...

Hello everyone I'm here requesting Sekiro since it has 50% discount and thank you to this community, I can enjoy elden ring nightreign and persona 5 royal. If you are not familiar with Sekiro. What Is Sekiro? Sekiro is a soulsborne or soullike game where the main character sekiro is trying to protect wolf, his master, from enemy. It has the best parry combat style game and quite different from other soulsborne where the main defensive is dodge, in sekiro, block or deflect(a perfect block) is the main defense. It also has stealth as another mechanic like in tenchu and is the main way for killing mobs. Why do I want Sekiro? I knew about sekiro from ongbal, a sekiro youtuber, he ha...

Hey I’m tired and chatty. Send me secrets, confessions or cool facts about yourself! Old text about me as a pc: Operating System: lifeOS 15.0 Processor: Single-Core, TomBoy AMD 1.2 GHz. Has performance issues and randomly crashes. ***** at multitasking. Overheats constantly. RAM: DDR4 4GB. Could use an upgrade. Memory gets filled with a lot of useless information often. Like way too many useless pokemon facts. Buffers at exams. Storage: 64Gb. Gets filled up way too fast with memes and junk. GPU: Nvidia 1080. It’s fine tbh. Could be better at rendering more advanced things though. Renders weird facial expressions too fast in social interactions. Audio System: Mono Sound. Pretty...

I am 30 F and my fiancée is 35 M, we’ve been together for 7 years and the relationship has become more abusive ever since I had an accident in which I broke my foot one month ago. he has always had anger issues but it never escalated unless I tried ti leave him. One Month ago i was talking to my sister in another language and he grabbed a powerade bottle and threw it to my injured foot because he thought I was making fun of him he then proceeded to throw items around the house in front of my sister and her boyfriend. i felt very humiliated and j told him I wanted to leave and he said go ahead and leave oh wait you can’t even ******* walk and started laughing I went to my room and he lat...

I should have posted here long ago. I've only done Ragbrai once, unofficially, in 2009 ish? My memory is fuzzy and I was fresh out of high school and at a wild time in my life. Had just really gotten into riding my bike aside from summers of 20" bike riding around the neighborhood with friends at school. I had stared riding around my city more, but not as a frequent habit yet, or lifestyle. Me and a friend had the idea in April or May? to take an impromptu ride Eastward. That's kind of when I found out about Ragbrai, but I was very under prepared and trained. I used a craigslist find Giant Rincon 26" with Scott touring bullhorns that was a little small for me, I had ze...
