Reflecting on My Notes from YC Startup School 2014
I've been using a pixelbook as my mobile dev platform (mostly web and server dev) ever since my 2015 macbook (15 inch) died. Overall, the experience as a developer has been quite good. The hardware is second to none. The trackpad is (IMHO) better than the one on my macbook, the keyboard is way better than Apple's recent keyboards, and having a touchscreen has been very nice for mobile testing. Passive cooling is a mixed bag. I like being completely silent and solid-state, but running a complete test suite takes a really long time because it must downclock (running the tests for my current files isn't bad though). The 3:2 aspect ratio also gives a ton of extra height over a lot of other systems.

The ChromeOS UI has been 2 steps forward and 1 step back. In preparation for their tablet launch, they re-worked the launcher. This was mostly fine, but they made the poor choice to merge settings and notifications to be like Android. They used to sit side-by-side and viewing lots of notifications was much easier. It used to be really buggy too, but now it's mostly just a worse experience for no good reason.

On the other hand, they finally added workspaces that are pretty similar to macOS. They work great and my only complaint is that they haven't made a gesture to switch between them yet (just a keyboard shortcut or expose then select).

When I switched, you had to put the machine into dev mode and run Crouton. This made everything work more-or-less like a normal Linux machine, but made for annoying startups (make a mistake and your machine will wipe and reset) while also getting rid of the security the OS provides.

Crostini has been an amazing advancement and they're making very fast progress. Support for VPNs was my primary issue, but that's been fixed for months. Sharing between the main OS and Crostini used to be a bit painful, but that's easy now too. GPU acceleration can now be enabled and works decently most of the time opening the way for most Debian apps. Tabs for the terminal would be nice, but I usually use tmux anyway. My only particularly annoying issue is UI scaling of Linux apps, but that's not entirely their fault. On the high-dpi screen, things can look really small because most apps aren't optimized. The really annoying issue for me at the moment is third-party APKs in Android. They simply do not allow them unless you want to go back into dev mode. If that isn't something you do, I guess that's not an issue at all.

I'm currently hoping for a pixelbook 2 which simply adds another inch of screen and shrinks the bezels a bit. Other than that and maybe adding thunderbolt, there's not much I'd want to change.
>what percentage of people who get an electric car (or just make it Tesla specific) would ever consider owning an ICE car again? I'm hoping it would be very low.

My wife and I have a model S and a model X and we are seriously considering buying an extremely old 4x4 truck for hauling firewood, trash etc. That's about it however - I'd never go back to an ICE car for regular transport and if it were five years from now I'd get a used Cyber Truck instead of the ICE pickup.

My only real concern is some kind of disaster with a long-term power outage. I live near Seattle and Solar simply isn't cost-efficient compared to the very cheap (and green) hydro power that we have and the PowerWall batteries just don't seem good enough yet to bother getting them. I may go for a natural gas generator to help with any serious outages but that's about it.

My parents in the UK don't have garage space (which is very common there - street parking is the norm in many places) and so they are stuck with ICE for the foreseeable future until infrastructure improves enough that they can charge nightly without needing garage space.
US: English is the de facto national language. Immigrants generally integrate by learning the language and participating in the broader culture. This supports my point.

China: China has mandated Mandarin be used on all official television networks, in schools, etc. It has actively worked towards making Mandarin universal precisely because it understands the importance of a single language.

EU: These are separate nations. English is the closest thing they have to a common language. The EU is stagnating and fragmenting.

Japan: Incredibly low crime and poverty rates, very high standard of living. Japan is one of the best places to live in the world largely because of its unity.

India: Fractured and divided linguistically and also politically. Growth has been far less than China, which is more homogenous. Having lots of trouble escaping the middle income trap.

These examples just serve to support my point.

Research shows that multiculturalism does not help nations and only leads to mutual distrust, increased political partisanship, and a whole host if other problems.
> About the long wait time - I waited from 11pm until 8:30am (discharge) in the morning in ER of Strong Memorial hospital one day for falling and bleeding from my nose (I thought I broke my nose, but luckily, I didn't).

This is how the system is supposed to work. Even if you had broken your nose, unless it's some gaping open fracture or the bleeding can't be controlled, it's probably not a higher priority than most of the cases they see.

> My sister, who lives in Rochester, NY, is waiting until May 2020 to get an appointment for yearly physical checkup. There's a significant shortage of doctors in rural areas (Rochester isn't even that rural to be honest). And yet, AMA is happily restricting the supply of new doctors by putting up multiple hurdles including exam fees (not to mention the amount of money they charge for each USMLE exam is ridiculous) and requirement to go through 8 years of education when that could have been easily reduced to just 4 for any IM (internal medicine) physician.

This is a complicated problem. Our current system incents people to become specialists. Why would I want to go to school for 8 years (taking on $200-300k in student loans if I'm lucky) and then do 1-3 years of 100-hour weeks making $50k to come out making less than a twentysomething software engineer?

I really missed CarPlay/Android Auto and physical buttons at first as well. So much so that I would still use google maps on my phone for navigation. However gradually I found the maps on the Tesla are quite good enough, and the bluetooth integration covers the rest.

I don't miss physical dash buttons either, because figuring out the touch screen is pretty natural. Just like any other software. Plus it is nice to have new buttons added from time to time.

Reading over the examples, it seems like there's a lot of good stuff here, though I wondered how possible it would be to extend switch with some of this capability vs adding a new keyword. It looks like this possibility was considered and is addressed in §7.2— basically the flexibility of case labels and break statements being able to appear inside control structures leads to all kinds of chaotic corner cases for switch (Duff's Device and friends) that are incompatible with the proposed semantics for inspect, with no obvious way to signal from the source which one you want.

Sure, it doesn't have much of a runtime at all but Rust does give a firm foundation to build on. Using an `Option` or the `once_cell` library is pretty ergonomic. At worse you use a function call to get a reference to the value instead of using it directly.
> Examples include circuit board layout programs, finite element modeling, any engineered hardware product, entertainment (like computer games), or anything other than pure business, really.

"Don't write code" really means "prototype first for your potential users". So if your code won't have users/customers, then write away. But hardware and entertainment can absolutely have low-fi cheap prototypes.

This approach is designed to elicit learnings to make a better product that's cheaper and faster to build. Of course you can write code first, but my experience suggests that that's a slower and more expensive approach.
900V/30μm is likely to be very useful indeed. At that gradient, the threshold for positron-electron pair production is about 34mm, which is small enough I can — for example — imagine it being built into a surgical instrument specifically intended to be pushed into a tumour.

As I am not a biologist, I have no idea if that is actually a useful way to deal with tumours, but regardless of the specifics I definitely expect it to enable things that are not currently practical.
The Relevance of Healthy Protein
Just to be clear. You're doubtful that this will work so we shouldn't try, and should continue to watch people living and dying on the streets from the comforts of the lavish accommodations?

Then you go on to propose fantastical, never gonna happen, jobs just poofing into existence at some indeterminate date in the future? Perhaps when enough people have died on the streets as to make UBI palatable over more food and housing riots? That's where we are headed if we can't start fixing these problems there will be riots.

The idea of MoP in common is not an originally Marxist idea; both socialsits who predated Marx and his contemporaries held the idea in various forms - some forms which Marx opposed (such as in his criticism of the Gotha program).

When Marx came into contact with secret Prussian communist groups, they already had this idea, but it was Marx who gave it a proper basis. In general, socialism is, if nothing else, about the distribution of productive capacity in society, and the results that flow from that. SEP has a good article[0] on it.

Tucker et al. fit much more neatly into the individualist anarchist spectrum than they do into socialism, in a similar way to both Proudhon and Stirner. But in contrast to Stirner, market socialism was proposed[1]. Thus, it has more in common with Proudhon than Stirner. However, Marx's criticism of the ideas which prefigured Tucker in Proudhon laid the groundwork for the socialists who reject both the legitimacy of the state and markets - in general, modern left-anarchists and "libertarian Marxists".

When I was in the 8th grade we were rappelling from an abandoned railroad trestle using some scavenged rope we found. While tying knots and having our own Indiana Jones adventure, a farmer came along and said we were trespassing but more importantly were tying our ropes incorrectly - that "more people die from square knots than any other kind of knot each year".

While I figure this is some passed down knowledge, i have always wondered if this was semi-true. Square knots are terrible.

Because it's smelly, messy, and requires much more regular maintenance and weekly gas station trips. If you're not super cash-strapped, an electric car is a pretty fantastic value. And if you are cash-strapped, there are some great deals on used Nissan Leafs and Chevy Volts (depending on your use case) out there. End up saving the difference in money on gas and maintenance.
Knots aren't super difficult to 'program' in the first place. The first computers were for looms and their weft patterns, after all. It's always been strange to me that no one has decided to set up the math of knots. Most knots are just subtle changes to the same basic elements (bite, over/under, loops, etc). I'd figured there are enough Eagle scouts with PhDs in math to have done this already, but no.

If you're talking about Manhattan, NYC, that place is absolutely nothing like the rest of America, except maybe for a few other large cities' downtown areas (DC, Boston, Portland, etc). These few places have entirely different lifestyles from the rest of rural and suburban America, where cars reign supreme.

I don't know how I feel about ChromeOS's market position. I do know that Crostini is the best innovation in the laptop space from the last half decade.
> Fry's is dead. Chalk one up for Amazon and automation a-la Andrew Yang.

It's easy to say that, but then the retort is why isn't Micro Center suffering the same issues? The two should be facing exactly the same pressure from Amazon, so the reasons for Fry's failures has to be more nuanced than "internet retailers are sucking everyone dry."

For my part, I'm much more willing to buy computer parts in person because a) I get to walk out with it and set it up that day and b) I'd rather carry >$1000 worth of equipment on my person than hope no one steals it between its delivery time and my getting off of work.

Medical professionals will notice if healthcare moves somewhat away from the market. They will feel safer investing energy without expecting market based financial compensation.

Compare to an free or open source project. A project that pays some contributors, but not others is a rather unhealthy situation. Such a project would have more difficulties attracting and retaining developers.

Don't underestimate what people will do for other than financial compensation, given suitable conditions.
> How do you get quality feedback? In my experience people will often say yes when asked or shown a mock up but will not buy. You don't find out who will actually buy until they try a functional product.

Ask them to pay you based on the mocks. If they say no, ask why. If they say yes, take their money and give it back in N days if you haven't built your MVP. I've done this BTW - it works.

> You don't find out who will actually buy until they try a functional product.

You'd be surprised how many people have gross business problems that some well-placed code would solve and they'd be thrilled to pay you for it because the other options suck.
Most electric tools are fine for the majority of people or in certain situations but they're absolutely not for everyone and not 100% replacement for all jobs.

It's best not to think of them as straight up replacements in all cases because there is overlap. Think about drivers and wrenches, do you own battery powered versions? Have they completely replaced your traditional drivers or wrenches? Have they completely replaced your corded power tools? Do you have multiple 12/18/20/24v variants of the same tool?

If someone asked me to mow the lawn at my last home with a battery powered lawn mower, I would have laughed in their face. The roots and rocks in the lawn would have destroyed an electric mower's blade on the first mow. At my current home I would consider it, but yard size might be a limiting factor. For the home I'm in the process of purchasing it will be preferred as the yard is so small..
>since the BIR costs imposed in current US public programs are far lower than private insurance

Which is why I included this piece.

>If we ignore all other costs associated with insurance and just pass the 'care' portion through. Insurance REVENUE was 706 bil - 600 bil (What was paid for care). or 106 bil.

>So a maximum savings of 2.9%. So rather than spending $11,172 per person we're down to $10,836 per person for healthcare. A savings of $336. Still far and ahead above what other countries spend.

Last year insurance spent $92 Bil on admin. Even if we 'save it by half' (comparing the 56 bil from your link) our best case savings of 106 bil drops to 60 bil. Or a reduction of 1.6% in healthcare spending or ~$160 per person.

And hospitals will still have admin as they still have to bill the government.
No, the bacteria in the rumen convert amino acids that cows and humans can’t digest (and hence are of no nutritional value), into amino acids they can digest.[1]

It all depends on your threat model. Some people don't mind Google knowing everything about them, and are happy to reap the benefits of making that tradeoff.
I haven't been there in a while, but from what I've heard from friends it's doing well.

You may also want to check out Altex. They have a store in Carrollton, and my experience visiting there a few months ago is that they're _very_ well-stocked and with excellent prices at that.

We're in a short term rental at the moment; I charge in the garage at 117V/12A (typical 120V/15A outlet) getting my Model S 4 miles of range per hour of charging. If I need to top up faster, our local grocery store has a Supercharger; we go grocery shop while the car fuels up (and it takes longer to shop than to fill the vehicle).

Several states require an apartment complex to allow you to install a charger (at your own cost). I think you'll see renters starting to make rental choices based on EV charger availability, too early to tell though. As a landlord, I've installed EV charging stations at no cost for my tenants, gotta be the change you want to see.

The carplay experience is basically the general UX of an iPhone on your car display, which will be better than almost every car manufacturer's UX. That plus being able to have an up-to-date UI for Google Maps with Google's traffic visualization and navigation.

The difference I see with Tesla is that many owners will say that the Tesla UX makes carplay redundant, outside of the iPhone's lockdown on sending/receiving texts and whatnot (although maybe they have an entitlement to use it, certain uses like Google Glass/Focals by North/Cars seem like something Apple would give text message permission to).

People in the US eat at home too. Do you mean to suggest Europeans eat at home more often? I could believe there's a small difference, but although Europe might not be covered in fast food chains at the same rate as the US, I'd guess smaller eateries more than make up for that.
