Oh no, this is dead serious. Even 2 minutes of listening to the recording makes that clear.

Consider that an enormous and often unheralded component of successful design [thinking] projects is cultural: are you working around people who share your process and ideation style? Is your team able to co-navigate an abductive process because there is a shared process, language, and disposition?

Also consider most designers are hired to be (a) intuitive and (b) visual. The practical implications being they are usually not (A) explicit or analytical thinker nor (B) articulate.

So what you have here is someone who is not especially skilled with words earnestly repeating the core dogmas of his industry, but only able to offer a mediocre "translation" of core working assumptions, process, and lingo to outsiders.

In many ways this podcast/article is exceedingly standard fare, you just may not have been exposed to much of the design sphere's publication. There are a handful of thoughtfully articulate, erudite designers out there, but they are the exceptions and not the rule.

On one hand, no one is forcing your restaurant to sign up to the app.

On the other hand, my anecdotal experience is these food delivery apps typically have had garbage service (my orders are delayed hours, missing items I paid for, etc.) and not properly pay their employees (contractors) while taking losses to capture the market before regulation can catch up and solidify their hold (I.e. cost of entry for small players becomes excessive).

I don’t support the business model, and I don’t give them my business.
Nicotine is a stimulant, and stimulants are not without side-effects. There isn't a stimulant known that doesn't put stress on the cardiovascular system. Nicotine increases blood pressure, heart rate and vasoconstriction.

Reminder that a low-grade stimulant like caffeine is considered to have deleterious effects.

Ticket Evolution | Sr./Mid Software Engineer | New York, NY (Potential Remote from AZ, ME, CA, TX, NY, NJ) | Fulltime with competitive salary, benefits and equity

Ticket Evolution is hiring an onsite or remote senior level engineer to help scale our API which connects ticket brokers with distributors, making it easier for brokers to sell their inventory. We're founded by brokers, so we have excellent knowledge and connections in the event ticketing industry, helping sell tickets for events like, Major League sporting events, Broadway theater, and major music festivals around the country.

Our inventory is growing, fast! The engineering team is working hard to keep up with this growing supply, so if you've helped scale an early stage app or platform in the past, you could be a great addition to the team. The API is built out in Ruby on Rails with some services in Node, so if you're interested, you should be familiar with at least Javascript or Ruby.

If you want to learn more, check out our website (www.ticketevolution.com)

If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, you can apply here: https://jobs.lever.co/ticketevolution/967456dd-f514-4525-8e2...

Locale.ai | Bangalore, IN| Backend Software Engineer | Fulltime | ONSITE

We are an early-stage GIS startup based out of Bangalore. Our vision is to help companies make better real-time business decisions and solve some of their complex spatial problems at scale!

As a software engineer at an early stage startup, you will be responsible for laying the foundation of all engineering systems. Your day might begin with designing a new micro-service supposed to handle 500 million pings on its first day in production and end with fierce debates on coding guidelines or the best practices for handling data consistency across distributed systems.

Being an enterprise-focused company, our systems don't scale linearly or even exponentially. Every new customer brings the scale of millions of customers that they serve. We need to build robust, scale-ready and fault-tolerant services from day one. Our clients rely on it.

If you are looking to spend your 20s learning how to build a company from scratch, if building systems at scale excites you, if you are mesmerized by what the world of location can offer or if you are passionate about zero-to-one, we will see you on the other side? :)

> Fake burgers are a transition and off-ramp for people looking to eat less meat.

This is similar to the argument for vaping vs. smoking, and just yesterday there was report, and have been in the past, about the harm caused by the other chemicals in vaping liquid which IMO may make it worse than smoking.

The question is, are we going to find out soon that the additives in these fake meat burgers are worse (or at least equally bad) for health than real meat?
As an NYC resident, I would much prefer to just have 1/10th the private cars, twice the number of trains (or whatever is necessary), and a massive reduction in the number of cars sitting around unused, with the resulting extra space being converted to green space, pedestrian-only areas, and bike lanes. Self-driving cars and the infrastructure they necessitate would make NYC more hostile to people, not less.
I guess most people just know best about what pests affect their area. Here in France, phylloxera is well known for having decimated our vines after having arrived from America (what saved the French wine industry was grafting our species on the roots of phylloxera-resistant but unpalatable American vines).

Same for the Argentinian ants that have founded the supercolony along the Mediterranean coast.

if you suspect you aren't the most sophisticated gambler, then maybe it doesn't pay? Honestly, sports betting is orders of magnitude less sophisticated than Wall Street, so you have a better chance of finding an edge that others haven't also found.
I don't like the idea, but I've noticed that in my city, if you're heading into the city centre you're absolutely out of luck as far as traffic is concerned, but if you're heading the other way, it's extremely light. So you wouldn't so much be "doubling" congestion as just applying it to both in and out flow equally. I don't know if that would actually cause more difficulties or not.

If your reports are predefined - summarised and no adhoc reporting needed, you can look into the continuous view feature of PipelineDB - http://docs.pipelinedb.com/continuous-views.html

> As soon as a stream row has been read by the continuous views that must read it, it is discarded. Raw, granular data is not stored anywhere. The only data that is persisted for a continuous view is whatever is returned by running a SELECT * FROM that_view. Thus you can think of a continuous view as a very high-throughput, realtime materialized view.

I use PipelineDB continuous views in Freshlytics - https://github.com/sheshbabu/freshlytics/blob/master/src/ser...

TimescaleDB also has something called "Continuous Aggregates" - https://docs.timescale.com/latest/using-timescaledb/continuo... but I haven't looked into it much.

For those unfamiliar with the topic, these two chips are by and far the most common wifi chips for DIY and are also very common in IoT devices. Due to cheap price ($2—$5 depending on the model) and very low barrier to entry technically, these devices are both very popular as well as very wide spread in those two categories.

These chips are the first hits for searches such as "Arduino wifi module", "breadboard wifi", "IoT wifi module", and many, many more as they're the downright easiest way to add wifi to something that doesn't have it out of the box.

I'm not sure how applicable these attack vectors are in the real world, but they affect a very large number of devices for sure.

> A bit too heavy on the carbs maybe

Fat and protein would be the problem. The typical American diet is very high in fat and protein. More carbs (low GI carbs with fiber) would make it healthier. To make a well balanced burger, you'd probably need to eliminate cheese, reduce the size of the patty significantly, use a whole wheat bun, and add plant fiber. You're basically replacing all of the ingredients.

Reports of our death have been greatly exaggerated :)

You can still install Tridactyl in a normal installation of Firefox by following the instructions on our readme [1]. Admittedly, that may cease to be the case if Mozilla ever tire of us; people in locked-down corporate environments would then find it hard or impossible to install Tridactyl but we'd make it as easy as possible for everyone else.

On topic, I'd argue that Mozilla are just desperately trying to cling on to ordinary users; the "war" against power users is a war of (totally understandable) neglect rather than spite.
