Replying to @davidortinau
@davidortinau I upgraded a MAUI Blazor Hybrid app from RC1 to RC2 and it broke .js <script> imports on anything other than index.html. Is there something obvious I'm missing that we can't include .js script tags in .razor pages anymore? Here's the only way I can make it work.

Thanks not only for your understanding but the praise @AJagim. If you're curious about our 4-day Summer Hours, I wrote more on it here : fitabase.com/blog/post/testiโ€ฆ
I tried to get ahold of a rep from @Fitabase today and got this awesome auto-response. Nice to see companies switching to the 4-day work week. Especially during the summer!

U.S. consumers doubled their use of wearables between 2020 and 2021, according to a new survey. #Sleep monitors were the second most popular device, following blood pressure devices, and were used by 21% of survey respondents. ow.ly/xup650OUU05

I can think of no greater example of the generational gap in personal wealth than the current resale value of Van Morrison tickets. Holy cow.

OMFG. No. Parents with young kids, absolutely *do not* do this. Do not put something over your eyes while you are home. Period. Kids already feel like they canโ€™t compete with their parentsโ€™ phones. apa.org/monitor/2016/02/smarโ€ฆ

I canโ€™t stop watching videos of Photoshopโ€™s new generative AI features. Incredible / frightening this now exists. โ€“ at Denver, CO
Less than 168 hours since Photoshop dropped the new "Generative Fill" feature. The demos that people are sharing are nuts. 7 jaw-dropping examples:

Went to @lizzo show last night. She never disappoints. Great moment: she spots this sign in the crowd, asks to borrow it.

BREAKING: Music superstar Dave Matthew infuriates Republicans by ripping lawmakers for falsely convincing Americans that they are "powerless" to stop gun violence and that the โ€œvulnerability of innocent people in this country is a sacrifice we have to make if we want to be truly American.โ€ โ€œItโ€™s so mind-bogglingly cruel. Itโ€™s insanity,โ€ said Matthews. โ€œI have no idea how people can stand up and say itโ€™s โ€˜not gunsโ€™ and โ€˜NRA,โ€™ itโ€™s just mental health," he went on. "And then do nothing to address the fact that from the โ€˜80s weโ€™ve closed every mental health institution we can in this country." Matthew said that he has "many" friends who own firearms but they all agree that the would prefer that "a person canโ€™t go into a school and blow people away after buying a gun.โ€ He then took aim squarely at right-wing paranoia and Fox News talking points by saying that "no is coming from your guns" but that we need a "conversation without mad outrage" about what can be done. โ€œI donโ€™t like being afraid of myย children being murderedย at school. Iโ€™ve had to deal with my kids being at university when there is a shooting and theyโ€™ve lost friends,โ€ he added. Retweet to thank Dave Matthews for taking a stand!

"The AI euphoria offers a mask for just how bad the rest of the startup industry really is. There is a reality that this AI hype cycle handed investors exactly what they wanted- an excuse to get back to momentum investing"

And here I was thinking I couldn't like the guy any less.
NEW: I spent months talking w/ George Santos for a potential documentary on him (my team eventually ditched the project when it was clear he wanted lots of $). In our conversations Santos offered striking remarks on his scandals & a notable โ€œJewishโ€ impression (audio below)โ€ฆ๐Ÿงต

Feels like a nerdy Oprah momentโ€ฆ โ€œYou get data science, and you get data science!โ€ I canโ€™t wait to test this out. Patiently on the waitlist... ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป
AI is eating data science ๐Ÿคฏ The newest ChatGPT plugin is the most powerful feature OpenAI has released since GPT-4. It makes everyone a data analyst. Here are 15 mind-blowing use cases of the new FREE โ€œCode Interpreterโ€ plugin:

Inspired by this, I took to #ChatGPT with a common customer service problem we (and many) have which is making sure we answer any time-sensitive urgent inbound support requests without letting them slip at the end of the day.

BUT, I was able to trip it up a bit. I think my prompt could be improved to catch indicators of a whole-site issue, or a matter the customer says is urgent but isn't really.
