Сейчас 10 лет Яндекс.Такси. Кажется, именно Яндекс первым привел Uber-модель в Россию. Пишут, что мой первый заказ был в мае 2013-го. Целая вечность назад, но я помню — был где-то в районе Лесной, нужно было в точку, удалённую от метро. Как раз крутили рекламу нового сервиса от Яндекса, я скачал, запустил поиск. Ждал минут 15, потом ещё искал, где водитель припарковался. Быстрее было бы дойти. Сейчас уже стало ясно, что сервисы такси — одна из важнейших технологических вех нового времени. Сложно представить себе что-то ещё, что настолько фундаментально поменяло наши жизни. Ни роботы-пылесосы, ни сервисы доставки, ни даже каршеринг — ничто из этого настолько сильно не поделило мир на "до" и "после". Процесс вызова такси по телефону действительно был неприлично труден: следовало знать адрес, где находишься, знать номер таксопарка, а затем ждать неопределенное время, после чего платить весьма немалые деньги водителю налом. К такси прибегали в крайних случаях, когда обойтись другим способом было невозможно. Сокращение такого значительного числа издержек в столь необходимой для людей услуге — перемещение — сопоставимо с изобретением интернета или электричества. Да, и без электричества мы могли обогревать и освещать свои дома, готовить пищу, вращать мельницы. Но на этом примере становится видно, что время и усилия на получение результата очень важны. Такси стало полноценным вариантом повседневного транспорта, а не редкой вынужденной мерой для богатых. Я заказываю такси десяток раз в месяц, и уже всерьез не способен вспомнить, как в принципе возможно было жить без этих сервисов. Что я делал в таких же ситуациях 10 лет назад? Ждал автобус полчаса, шел пешком час? Или даже просто отменял своё намерение добраться в какую-то точку? Лучше, наверное, и не вспоминать. #life

Question ppl ask me often How can I improve my writing skills? Here is my reply Improving your writing skills is a valuable endeavor that can benefit you in many areas of life. Here are several strategies you can use to become a better writer: 1. Read Regularly: - Diverse Materials: Read a variety of genres, including fiction, non-fiction, journalism, and academic papers. This exposes you to different styles and vocabularies. - Analyzing: Pay attention to how authors construct sentences, develop ideas, and build arguments. Reflect on what makes their writing effective or ineffective. 2. Write Daily: - Journaling: Keep a daily journal to practice writing regularly. It doesn’t have to be formal; the goal is to make writing a habit. - Prompts: Use writing prompts to challenge yourself and spark creativity. Websites and books often offer daily prompts. 3. Learn the Basics: - Grammar and Syntax: Brush up on grammar and syntax rules. Resources like "The Elements of Style" by Strunk and White can be very useful. - Vocabulary: Expand your vocabulary through reading and using tools like a thesaurus. 4. Seek Feedback: - Peer Review: Share your writing with friends, colleagues, or writing groups to get constructive feedback. - Professional Feedback: Consider hiring a writing coach or taking a writing course. 5. Revise and Edit: - Multiple Drafts: Don’t be afraid to write multiple drafts. Revision is a crucial part of the writing process. - Editing: Learn to edit your work critically. Look for clarity, coherence, conciseness, and correctness. 6. Study Writing Techniques: - Workshops and Courses: Enroll in writing workshops or online courses. Websites like Coursera, Udemy, and edX offer courses on various aspects of writing. - Books on Writing: Read books about writing, such as "On Writing" by Stephen King or "Bird by Bird" by Anne Lamott. 7. Practice Different Styles: - Genres: Experiment with different genres (e.g., poetry, essays, short stories, technical writing) to find your strengths and preferences. - Perspectives: Write from different perspectives and in various voices to develop versatility. 8. Use Writing Tools: - Software: Use tools like Grammarly, Hemingway Editor, or ProWritingAid to help with grammar and style. - Outlining: Use outlining tools to organize your thoughts before you start writing. 9. Stay Motivated: - Set Goals: Set specific, achievable writing goals (e.g., write 500 words a day, complete a short story in a month). - Celebrate Progress: Acknowledge and celebrate your progress to stay motivated. 10. Read Aloud: - Hearing Your Writing: Reading your work aloud can help you catch errors and awkward phrasing that you might miss when reading silently. Improving your writing skills is a continuous process, and persistence is key. By integrating these strategies into your routine, you'll gradually become a more confident and effective writer. #sirjimmy#teamjimmy#writingskills#englishmadeeasy#truewisdom
