Can a product built on a single feature transform into a $ Bn product?
Honey a shopping deal-finding chrome extension was recently acquired by PayPal for “approximately $4 billion.

When you’re shopping on one of the 30,000 online retailers Honey works with, the extension will find coupon codes for things you add to your cart and attempt to automatically apply them for you.

While building your product, you see a lot more features that can be integrated with the current product.

Some features could be a compliment to the existing feature or a few of them could be a completely different serving fulfilling different objectives.

So the question is,

Are we devaluing the other features by integrating them into the same product?
Can those features be built as different products?

Just don't copy privileged/proprietary data/code and you'll be fine.
Works great for most things. Things can get a bit complicated for scenes/models with large coordinates and 32 bit floats, but that's not something that fixed precision integers/decimals would solve. An easy way to solve these issues is to use floats for some parts of the rendering pipeline and doubles for others, e.g. double precision matrices on CPU side, then compute a combined world-view matrix where huge camera and huge vertex coordinates cancel each other out. You can then cast the double precision world-view matrix to a single precision matrix and use that for rendering on the GPU.
There are so many apps like yours. What do you offer specifically to your users?
Git flow is complicated. So is software. If you work at a place that still ships software instead of just running services, you need something more than continuous delivery and a trunk based workflow. If you provide services, you need to care about at most 3 versions of your software at the same time: the version running in production, the version before it, and the version after.

If you ship software you might have to care about every version you ever released to in the last 2 years plus that one super old version your second customer is still using because they refuse to upgrade and shit you need to fix a critical vulnerability that was just published in it.

Trunk based dev doesn't cut it in that world.
How did you get the idea to create this exercise app?
> the Tesla stack could be better than Lidar

From the systems I've worked with it's usually AND and not OR, you use both a Lidar and a Radar. The Radar images I've seen were quite lousy and are not 100% interference prone.
I sometimes wonder if tools like Anki aren't just another form of procrastination. The time invested could probably be better spent.
Walk away with 20 tons of stolen goods? How are you going to accomplish that? Why not do something interesting like reprogram a whole fleet of cargo trucks to deliver the cargo to the wrong destination?
The y/n is for install. It’s saying “do you want to install with telemetry, xor not install at all.”

That’s like those EULAs on websites that say “by continuing to use our site, you agree never to sue us, to surrender your first born to us, and to never speak ill of us for any reason, et c.”

That’s simply not affirmative consent. Imagine if you tried that in life! “Anyone who stays in this room after 5pm is consenting to be groped! Proceed at your own risk.”

That’s not how any of this works. Stating your intentions to assume and potentially violate consent is not obtaining consent.
This was not intended as flame bait, rather just to be overtly shaming towards Google, whose behavior had been unquestionably appalling.
Rancher labs have a wide offering that has worked well for me.

But I’m hardly an expert regarding the k8s on prem market so there might be even better ones!

If Anki’s UI/UX turns you off, I’ve built an alternative called Mochi (https://mochi.cards/) that uses markdown.

Incidentally it also supports Zettelkasten like note taking like described in the article.
Please change the title to something like: "MoovBuddy: An exercise app for back & neck pain and joint health"

It's also much better to link here to the page of the app directly, instead of the Product Hunt launch.

The description is a bit too specific:

> Less pain killer, less medical imaging and less chronic pain.

I think it can be a problem like the old marketing saying

> An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
Interesting point. So lazy rich people pay more. Although with the bonus cards, literally every regular customer has them, so it's the irregular customers that subsidize the regular ones.

The halting problem is RE complete, which means it's both RE Hard (every problem in RE can be reduced to the halting problem) and in RE.

It does seem from the article that they use an argument that the halting problem is unsolvable to somehow give an upper bound on complexity, but I wonder if the paper really does that.

"the fact that the halting problem is unsolvable"
This is less of a fact and more of a conjecture.
As always in mathematics we use implicit context and sometimes that context gets lost to a damaging degree.
The whole, and true, sentence would be "the fact that the halting problem is unsolvable by a turing machine and, given that the Church Turing thesis is true, unsolvable in general".

It would be a pitty if the paper simply assumes the Church Turing thesis as true, because if we ever find a hypercomputation counterexample to the CTT, it'll probably come from a place like quantum computing and physics, where there might be more reals than the computable reals, where the axiom of choice could work, and where infinity might be a reified thing instead of a process.
The UK has such laws but they don't cover discount codes. So you have retailers that have a few 'sales' where prices are listed as discounted. At other times, the price goes up but generous discount codes are freely available.

I had never thought about it before where Aussie shows get shown in other countries. Over here it's usually reruns on 10 BOLD
We call a property non-trivial if there is a computable (partial) function that satisfies the property and another computable (partial) function that doesn't satisfy the property.

E.g. "returns 4 for some input" is a non-trivial property: the function 'f(x) = 4' satisfies it, while the function 'f(x) = 7' does not.
Australians have continuously voted for parties who have a track record of either dismissing or doing nothing about climate change. The currently elected party in particular. It's extremely sad to watch all this unfold in my home country from abroad but at the same time I'm not sure how you can argue with what the general public are voting for.

I’m positively attuned to the ... de facto Microservices bonded by unixy conventions ... part. And it has worked well in the past. You had much more freedom but everyone needed to pretty much roll their own.

Kubernetes is a compromise on that. You don’t need to build you ops framework from scratch now and deploying something has very well defined APIs. OTOH you now are in a world of finding which k8s extensions/plugins/whatever you should use and which are just “fancy”. And answer questions like Is Knative V0.8 good enough for our workloads? Because Ai Defi needs that for some reason...

EDIT: Kubernetes is open source though right?
LEGAL

LLCs are usually pretty simple. Usually, he has to get your agreement to do anything that dilutes you. Profits flow through as income to you. It is a bit annoying on the majority owner because (a) it is hard to raise capital and (b) you've got to file K-1s promptly every January so I can see why he'd want to get it all back.

ECONOMICS

So he basically values the business at $300K ($4.5K / 1.5%). My rough rule of thumb is that small stakes in small stable business should be worth around x3 ARR. If it is very profitable, it is worth a bit more. If not, it is worth a lot less.

If you can, you should ask him to send over the financial (P/L, balance sheet) and ask tax filing for last year. If he says no, check the operating agreement and see what it says you are entitled to (if anything) but basically ask him how you can judge what the shares are worth without seeing the books.

Personally, if he is willing to give you the books, I'd say that's a good sign that he is offering a buy out to make his life easier not grab the profits.

PRACTICAL

The main problem with arguing a majority owner about getting bought out is that he can always eat up the profits by paying himself more, especially if it is pretty small. The important question is why he wants the equity back.

This is just a negotiation so you want to understand why he wants to equity back and make a positive case for him to either pay you a fair value for it or let you keep it.

Consider framing your equity share as lost wages. Something like, "I took a $10K pay cut to earn that equity. I believe in you and what your doing and would like to stay in and share in the profits. What can I do to help make that happen?"

Consider exchanging the equity to a royalty so that he writes you a check every quarter based on revenue up to some limit (say x3-5 what he would pay today). Companies really can only sustain a 5% royalty on gross revenue and it would be divided between everyone he is buying out.

If he wants to convert to a C corp to raise money, then you could offer to convert to Common in the new corp but I'd tend to get my money out.

FINALLY

There is a tendency for small business owners (me included) to feel entitled to a large share of the profits to value their contributions above those of the people that have worked for them. We tend to take lot more risk -- as an owner, you are usually the last person to get paid. You have to (politely) make your case for yourself to counteract that.

If you are an engineer, I think the easiest/cheapest thing you could offer him as an incentive to think of you as someone he wants as a partner is help with hiring. It could be very useful to him when recruiting if he could point candidates to you as a closer. You'd have good standing to act as a reference for him.
I, too, did this and it’s not effective. More effective is learning Greek words and memorizing the collation order of the alphabet.
No, that's not the argument at all. "Art" and "design" do not imply infantilisation. No one accuses Dieter Rams of being infantile.

Infantilisation in design is specifically signified by cute animal mascots, large flat areas of primary and/or pastel colours, plain undemanding letter forms, use or implication of smiles and other emotional signifiers of friendliness or cuteness, use of relatable cartoons as primary graphics, and generally by aggressive simplification and removal of anything that requires some thought or effort to parse.

The Twitter and Amazon logos are infantile. The General Electric and IBM logos aren't. The Facebook "f" is more or less neutral, but the font chosen for the full "facebook" logotype wouldn't be out of place on the cover of an early reading book.

The point of infantilisation is that it signifies an experience of creativity without actually being creative. Instead of priming the imagination it just slides off it. It's all about locking you into a comfort zone instead of inspiring you to explore outside of it.

Newer cars do see around corners (relative to the driver), using the rear cameras. When backing out in my newish car, I can see up and down the road in both directions, from the cameras on the rear bumper.

The title is a bit misleading. The crypto exchange was legal already. The new law seems to consider crypto exchanges regular financial institutions, thus more regulated. As a result crypto is expected to be more trusted industry.

> One of the main caveats to the enactment of the amendment is that cryptocurrency exchanges will need to comply with reporting requirements. Although the larger exchanges mostly comply with the new rules already, small and medium-sized exchanges may have trouble obtaining the contracts to reach full compliance.
Well, that sucks. Not just for him, but for us.

It's increasingly looking like COVID-19 is not going to be contained, and if it passes like a flu with more casualties, that's something we can recover from, but if it's gonna leave millions with permanent respiratory damage, then we're going to be feeling the effect for decades.
Don't forget the Persians before the Muslims or all the self-inflicted damage from coups, inept emperors, etc..

In this case though, the fourth crusade really is important since it was when the Hagia Sophia was first looted during a sack of the city. Nearly seven centuries of accumulated treasures were carted out of the place.
My hunch is that Anki is mostly useful for stopping you from forgetting things you have already learned. The actual learning is better done outside of Anki.

Red flags might not actually matter in many use cases. But where it does, setting up a decoy OS that boots on the computer by default when turned on may be one good strategy.

For a VeraCrypt volume, setting up an outer volume with convincing files and providing the decoy password may be effective.

Whether the mere possession of a Tails USB adversely affects your situation is a matter that remains to be discussed at length. There is clearly no one situation that applies to everyone.

HiddenVM's potential to provide deniability is about cryptographic deniability, not human deniability. Software can only do so much. If humans are suspicious, software alone cannot change their minds.
Absolutely. Keeping it interesting should be one of the first priorities when learning something.

For the record, Anki actually works really well for me. But interest in the subject should come first.
I think the only country in the world where the general citizen have enough self control to manage this sort of stuff is Switzerland.

It might be distasteful to you but it is how people operate in real life and it would be sad if legislators ignored the real world in favour of how they wished the world to be.
The hoops may also be a way of circumventing legislation. Discount codes are not regulated in the UK, for example, but straight-out price discounting is.
Maybe good for hiding activity when you're already below the radar. If you're a person of interest for a large enough state then they can and will use all manner of dirty tactics to nail you and simply encrypting is not enough. You will have to flee like Snowden did. And once they bring in legislation that says a govt agent can ask for your decryption keys under reasonable doubt then everyone is in soup since encrypted data is easy enough to detect as such. One may have to shift to steganography of increasing sophistication. Basically this fight has to be clinched politically. While technology can help it can't ensure absolute privacy/security against an all-powerful state. The key question is if a state should be all-powerful at all in the first place...

Nope. The Lidar pulses are encoded uniquely to each sensor, so one sensor can filter out an (already unlikely) direct hit from another lidar. The cameras are IR filtered and also unlikely to get hit by the lidar. Radar is pulse encoded in a similar way to lidar, although possibly more likely to lose performance if surrounded by a lot of other radar units. In general, dirt on your sensor lenses is a lot more annoying than interference from other cars.

Although it's most likely the opposite for covid19 (it survives better at colder temperatures), climate change does have an impact today on the population and habitat surface of ticks (spreading Lyme disease) and invasive tropical mosquitoes (carriers of yellow fever, dengue fever, Chinkungunya, ...). This impact is already visible today.
The general public votes for anyone supported by the press. Thank Murdoch for the past few governments.
Ah, it's the climate's fault. Not shitty forestry management policies by the various government entities who are "responsible" for that kind of stuff.

Letting underbrush accumulate because you have a zero tolerance burn policy is the problem everywhere there's been a severe fire.

We thought we'd improved a million year old system, but all we did was make it a tail end event.

Isn't downloading additional software defeats the purpose of inspecting the code?
To be clear, I wasn't saying they were the same phenomenon. I was saying they're apparently the same phenomenon, even though I know they can't really be. My opinion was that it was the responsibility of the article to explain why these apparently identical phenomena are in fact distinct.
But these are exactly the type of jobs that can be done from home! How does sanitising an office space help?
And, did you see increased traffic from Apple corporate networks?
Yes, that's called "doing responsible journalism in a capitalist society." You find something newsworthy, you reports the news, and you get paid for it. What part would you like to change?
There is not much profit though, you'd get much more if you said it wasn't related.
The primary difference is the state generally doesn't allow poor people to legally offer basic carpentry/roadside services at a rate commensurate with their skill. Things like licensing requirements create a barrier to entry unavailable to the poor, not unlike what traditional taxi companies are fighting for in their war against gig economy drivers. Such laws do help the wealthy incumbents because they have the ability to overcome those barriers, but it's at the expense of the poor.
There is nothing Australia could have done on its own to curb climate change. Even if we removed every single human and factory from the country it wouldn't have influenced climate change one bit. Now I know "we need to start somewhere", but this somewhere needs to be the biggest polluters not Australia. The best thing Australia could have done is to decrease their consumptions of goods manufactured by these big polluters by imposing heavy tariffs maybe, although this could have triggered a local industry to build this tariffed stuff which could have only been stopped by imposing very heavy taxation on those local industries, I don't think any politicians would like to commit political suicide though.
Thanks for this...do you know of a way to integrate this into a Sonos service?

Spaced repetition really clicked for me when I realized that it isn’t about learning, but about keeping memories fresh. If you don’t have an emotional attachment to each card in the deck, reviews become a terrible slog. Mine is a mix of random insights I’ve had, photos of places I’ve been, summaries of things I’ve learned, etc. The questions are simply there to force me to engage my memory, which drags up the whole web of mental associations— there’s no need to add every detail explicitly; that’s what notes are for.

Popular opinion held by non-experts on topics where objective fact from experts exists, is the way to argue it.

Also, statistically Australians believe in climate change. They're just not voting on that issue in elections over others.

I could go into media bias/propaganda in Australia, but that is off topic, but the pertinent part is that Australians are (in my opinion) ill informed on many subjects, especially ones where experts should be listened to, and not media mouthpieces.
