The only time it’s an issue for me is when the other person isn’t willing to message me on another app instead of trying to use SMS. I get horrible cell service where I live and my only options are iMessage or an app like Signal /WhatsApp/Messenger.

So this is when adding someone with an Android to a group conversation that was taking place using iMessage can cause some irritation.

That’s been my experience as well. Reporting them does nothing, but if you call them out on their BS, Facebook suspends you.

As long as hate drives engagement, this will never change.

We were so happy when one of the restaurants near us started serving them. A truly awesome meal.

I always assume they will tailgate me, and so far, I’ve never been wrong.

I love hearing that other people prefer a simple approach. All too often people recommend overly complex systems that could be daunting to someone who’s looking for help. Start off simple and then add complexity if you need it.

I, too, only have that option at work. There isn’t anything inherently wrong with OneNote, but I think it’s a bit too busy for me. As I get older and understand my ADHD and Autism more, I find that a minimalist approach helps me remain productive.

I have the same problem. I started using AI to rewrite my emails to make them more concise and to avoid long-winded responses.

Keeping it simple works for me, so I stick with Apple Reminders and leverage smart tags to keep everything organized and give me an “at a glance” view. I can open Reminders and see things categorized by:

• level of effort
• estimated time to complete
• category (home, school, kids, etc)

I’ve tried a lot of other tools in the past but too many options keeps me in a constant state of tweaking instead of getting things done. Plus I like being able to just say out loud what I need to add to my list and share it with my family without them having to get another app.

Notes are a bit trickier for me. I still use OneNote for work (and hate it), but I use Apple Notes for home and Goodnotes for school. I’ll probably end up going Apple Notes for the same reasons as Reminders, but I’m still hesitant for some reason.

Yes.

I replaced the one on my iPhone 6 myself and that helped tremendously.

I’ve had an iPhone 12 Pro since launch and I ended up getting a replacement from Apple last year when the back cracked so naturally the battery was replaced, it was at 89%, and the difference wasn’t as noticeable but my battery did last longer.

I appreciate the reply, and I agree.

It’s sad that people jump to the conclusion that my kids are being kept from the world and I’m doing them harm because I don’t let them go to public gatherings on holidays. My kids attend school, they go to birthday parties, parks, pools, all the usual things kids do.

Sure. At a super high level, I review business processes and find inefficiencies such as bottlenecks and time sucks and design solutions to optimize them.

As a career, you’ll commonly see positions in this field listed as a Business Analyst or Process Improvement Analyst. Almost every industry hires for these roles so you can work almost anywhere.

Interesting, you’re telling me to learn statistics, and then you skipped over the leading cause of death for children in the United States.

Try incorporating empathy in your life, and understand it’s not about you. If you don’t have the same concern as others, you don’t have to resort to insults; you can accept that someone else feels differently without trying to hurt them.

That is what I tell everyone. I don’t need constant reassurance, and I suck at providing it to those that need it.
