I do! My religious mother said it was certain because her church Facebook group said there was an upcoming blood moon and quoted some ambiguous bible verses. She wanted me to go buy a dozen cheap tents at K-mart's store closing sale. I refused and she bore witness to me that it was the end of days.

I reminded her about the "prophesies" she spouted to me on inauguration day and she rolled her eyes and asked why I was holding onto the past.

That is the end game of AI. They are free now as they are in disruption and growth phase with lots of competition. But in a few years most will have gone bust or been acquired until only 2-3 remain. Society will become dependent on them, and then they will roll out expensive subscriptions.

I was once rear ended at a red light. I was knocked unconscious and the driver drove off. A few kind witnesses called police who took a report. They got half his plate imprinted on my bumper, but never tracked him down. I had State Farm, and I was even paying extra for the "uninsured driver coverage". They said they couldn't cover it because until they had another driver's information I was automatically at fault, even with the police report and witness accounts. They said it didn't count as uninsured driver because it's possible the guy had insurance. I was flabbergasted.

In the end I had a concussion and needed to take time off work for recovery and my short term disability insurance ended up suing State Farm because they didn't want to pay for my medical treatment. State Farm agreed to cover medical care but only if it was recorded as my fault and I paid my deductible. In anger I tried to switch insurance companies but found out they have a shared database and since it was recorded as a hit and run my fault, nobody else would take me. And State Farm jacked my rate up 30%...

Think of other topics and questions than work, Americans care too much about work outside of work.

Knowing what country or region you're going to would help

When I last visited Argentina Uber was using the official exchange rates which were just fantasy numbers. As soon as you match with a driver they'd message you and you'd negotiate the cash price. Then the ride in the app would be cancelled.

Uber didn't mind because they were still getting the ~$1 or so cancel fee for basically being a messaging app.
