Every app doesn’t need to do everything. If it continues t... more

Luxury Europe for 70% Less: Switzerland & Lake Como with Amy Fox
Q: What do you think about traveling with other families?

Luxury Europe for 70% Less: Switzerland & Lake Como with Amy Fox
Q: What made you drawn to Italy?
Amy says Italy offered memorable food and a different experience from their earlier visit, while remaining close enough to Switzerland to add without making the trip too rushed. Chris was also drawn by Lake Como's family-friendly Grand Hotel Victoria and the chance to experience Italy more comfortably than on their budget college trip.
10 Lessons for Better Decisions About Money and Life
Q: How do you think about the balance between giving an AI agent enough access to be helpful and preventing it from doing too much?
Begin with limited, low-stakes tasks and permissions, and expand its access as you learn to trust the tool. Hutchins says agents generally act within the scope of the task they are given, though they can overdo the requested action.
10 Lessons for Better Decisions About Money and Life
Q: How do I start building my agent?
Start with one simple task that you want to do regularly, give the agent relevant context gradually, and ask it how best to approach the task before assigning it.
Have Better Conversations and Build Deeper Connections with Vanessa Van Edwards
Q: How do you kick off a treasure-hunt in a seemingly boring setting to spark a meaningful exchange?
