As an author, I don't make a whole lot of money, but at the same time I need to read a lot of books to stay aware of trends and support my fellow authors. Obviously if I spend all my profits on other people's books, I'm not coming out ahead!
So: ways to read lots of indie books for cheap.

In Morrow County, healthy adults were coming down with unexplained medical conditions, including diseases that usually afflicted the elderly.
In a survey of 30 homes, at least 25 miscarriages and a half dozen people living with one kidney were reported.

I’m begging novel writers to hire an artist for their covers. At least someone who can do graphic design at a minimum. I see the worst book covers on here everyday and you’re all doing such a disservice to yourself to put in the effort to write a whole book only to turn people away with a bad cover.

Every now and then I see stuff from a TCG I used to do art for (& which I used to play as a kid), and that I ended in pretty bad terms with, and I can't help but think of how misogynistic a lot of their art is (not all, there are some cool people working there), and how players celebrate that. 1/7

Comment faire plus court et percutant ? @timnitgebru.bsky.social explique que :

2- Pour développer un système, on met une entrée, on regarde la sortie. Si ça ne va pas, on corrige.
3- On teste les limites d'un pont (charge...)

you do have to do it in a couple of places but this tutorial makes it easy to go uncheck the boxes that otherwise lets Google's AI read all your shit. or move everything over to protonmail but moving everything over is a giant thing I know.
Google has started automatically opting you in to let it read your stuff to train AI. You need to turn this off in SEVERAL places in your settings (not just for Gmail), if you want to maintain privacy and confidentiality.

Gmail can read your emails and attachments to train its AI, unless you opt out
A new Gmail update may allow Google to use your private messages and attachments for AI training. Here's how to turn it off.

Please do not feed personal information to chatGPT. Please do not tell it where you work and live and how to get money from you.
They know that TurboTax is easier than doing it by hand and cheaper (mostly) than going to an accountant.
That accountant had to sign ethical standards. ChatGPT can’t.

TurboTax is about to be integrated into ChatGPT, where customers will be guided through tasks tied to their tax filings or financial profile by the AI chatbot.
TurboTax owner Intuit is also paying OpenAI more than $100 million a year to power AI agents.
