Its ok much better with a Kinekt 2.1 seat post, but after you get used to how plush a full suspension bike is its hard to go back.

Its not just ride comfort but control too, the rear suspension helps keep the rear tire in contact with the road instead of bouncing around with the whole bike. Also why a mid drive is somewhat better with full suspension due to less unsprung weight.

The Juiced RCS is a lot of bang for the buck, the battery is huge and mine will top out at 32mph on flat ground and go 40+ miles on charge without holding back. I have 1300 miles on mine with no issues.

I would add that shallow understanding of this essay is also toxic.

Two weeks ago on some forum for developers I have seen a guy that was basically refusing to learn what other people did because he was convinced that he should be "inventing new unseen algorithms".

That was an IT undergrad that was bored with learning about things other people already invented. He just could not understand that in order to invent something new and groundbreaking you have to learn quite a lot of what already was there. Otherwise you will invent something that someone in 1820 came up with and think that you are genius.

So I agree with PG that there is a lot of value in independent thinking, but one has to be smart enough to realize where to stop. Essay is also not saying "non novel thinking is useless", because it is really useful.
And, like most kinds of work these days, science progress is mainly collaborative, rather than the result of one independent thinker.

pg seems predisposed to dichotomous thinking. This could be about his rhetorical style. It's easier to write an essay, or a screenplay, with good guys and bad guys. The world is more like a novel now, with multiple independent processes in shades of gray.

It is a commentary on the article. Having read the article, I think regardless of Sabine's credentials, she has gone the wrong path in terms of science communication. Apple is a topic, Sabine is an author. It's the physics equivalent of asking for a source other than the Daily Mail.

I'm legitimately curious about the opinion of professional physics. I've worked with quite a few professional AMO physicists and the opinions of Sabine's content there are very low.

> Fortunately you don't have to spend all your time with independent-minded people ...

Maybe it's the absurdity to divide people (and here obviously ALL people) simply into two groups and just by structuring them gain some meaning or knowledge. It's really easy and unprofessional: really you could divide society up by uncountable distinctions. But distinctions do not make dialectics or aren't anything but misleading if you're just asserting them.

Also the distinctions between conventional and independent are just blurry ones here, only derived by example; not by definition. There is no intellectual sharpness to the argument, right from the start of the "essay" – in that, that it appeals only to the intuition, not to the mind. There are no studies about "independent-minded" or "conventional-minded" people; not in hte sense he is using the term here. Quite the opposite: he is using the terms to appeal to a feeling. In no earnest science, or literature, someone talks so dull and undifferentiated about human beings.

Also I wouldn't ever think about a friend of mine, or someone close to me with such cold efficiency that derives from that really simplistic way of handling people and amateur psychology.
Overall, the emphasis was on thinking differently than most people likely approach their careers. I know so many people that struggle to learn these lessons and instead focus on what is holding them back. That mindset is self-fulfilling.

Sure, breaking a window is easier, but that triggers an alarm and arms the home defense system.

If, OTOH, the thief subverts the home automation system, not only can they open the door and disable the cameras, they can instruct the system to pipe the anti-intruder knockout gas into the biolab/hackerspace where you are burning the midlight oil, working on your revolutionary chimpanzee/cheetah hybrid pizza delivery servant. The thief is then able sneak in undetected and steal your zygotes and tissue samples. Worst-case scenario, they'll take a kidney as well. Yours, I mean.

This is why it's so important to have physical safeguards in place, like the mechanical stops that keep the home defense cannon in the foyer from being aimed away from the front door.

And obviously bulletproof metal shutters.

As an inventor holding over 70 patents, I often get asked "can you teach me to be innovative?" My answer is that you already are but you have been taught not to be. It is not that you need to learn to be innovative you have to unlearn to be compliant. School, military, most big companies all have many rules and expectations which essentially train the innovativeness out of people. I agree it is in human nature to be innovative and creative, you just have to find ways to unleash your inner inventor.

In the US, it’s explicitly psilocybin (and maybe psilocin too) that is federally banned. This is why you can still legally buy spores of the mushrooms that contain it: the compound does not exist in the spores. This is almost certainly due to an oversight when the law was written.

Legality is weird. In the Netherlands, over 100 species of psilocybin-containing mushrooms were banned. But the law there bans only the fruiting bodies, it does not ban other parts of the organism. A few species form truffles—a sterile mycelia mass for energy storage, kind of like its version of a potato—that still contain psilocybin. Those can still be legally bought, probably because of a similar oversight in the law.

Is this really a tooling issue? Every time I try to find and latch on to a new tool (e.g. Zettelkasten, Roam, DevonThink — you name it) I end up learning the same lesson over and over: it's not the tool. It's — for me, at least — a lack of organization. Although I'm fairly regimented in most aspects of my life, I realized that my digital assets are scattered all over the place: and I'm not the only one.

What's really help me over the last couple years, with getting organized, is discovering "Personal Information Management" (PIM). Also, this website rocks:

Latency through switch (ie. how much the switch added compared to if the signal traveled unimpeded in vacuum).

Decade ago.
I lived in a Tiny House in Florida while I was on contract work. The rent was free and came with the job, and at first it was pretty cool, but then it quickly was not. The main issue is that to live and work with any level of efficiency requires you pal everything. Vacuum? Need a plan. Cooking dinner, need a plan. It’s like trying to find a charger for a Tesla Roadster in the first few years - everything required careful planning. After the contract, I moved into a hotel and it was instantly better.
One way to have a business worth giving a shit about is to care about what your customers do. To you, the programmers, it's Yet Another Middleware CRUD CRM Layer, but to your users, it's how they make their living or enjoy themselves in their time off. They care about what your software does for them.

We programmers tend to prize the code that we write for other programmers: the compilers, the kernels, the libraries. But most of us will work for customers who do real-world things, whether that's watching a movie or checking in patients at the dentist office or tuning their guitar. So our software is usually incredibly dull to us as programmers, but of crucial interest to our users.

This doesn't have to be management consultant BS. You can't just fake caring about customers. Be sincerely interested in making their lives better, even though what they do isn't what you as a programmer have devoted your life to.
The online degree earned is the same as one in person. However I found the lectures to be much more "staged" online than the free-flowing in person lectures and discussions. So I would argue that the online lectures are of lower quality.
Ask HN: Why does Google prioritize spam/junk websites for phone numbers?
If you put a phone number into Google, the results are just pages and pages of spam or junk websites. It has been this way for as long as I can remember.

I disagree. I think the point of the show is to illustrate how technology progresses. You could say one piece of it is about how we are reliant on it, and not in control of it, but I'd say overall, the show is optimistic about technology and celebrates innovation.

Edit: The Wikipedia article [0] does have a good summary, which I think makes us both right: There are really a collection of theses, none of which in my opinion dominate the show, except possibly the unplanned nature of technological evolution.

How much money would this make the company? How much would it cost to implement? What more profitable projects would get scrapped?

Pretty much the answer to any "Why can't X do Y for $0" type question.
Yes. Once one has a green card, one can do anything.
I don't think building a business is zero-sum in principle. Your point about a farmer creating value is well taken. Our present measures of economic value are notoriously short-sighted though (i.e., willing to ignore hard-to-quantify externalities); did the green revolution create value? It vastly improved yield, but if we don't make serious changes in the next 50 years, it will destroy the viability of agriculture. Value creation is rarely unambiguous.

I would also argue that many VC-backed startups are more about finding unexploited niches or catabolizing existing sectors of the economy than creating new material wealth.
It's multiple dispatch, but the meta-object protocol runs deeper than that (e.g. :before, :after, :around )
The huge difference between tech startups and science is that in science, the conventional wisdom has recorded justifications and collected evidence that you can look up and understand, while in tech startups the conventional wisdom is advice made up by businessesmen who succeeded once, or sometimes succeeded zero times, and shared over drinks at the local pub. The usefulness gap between scientific knowledge and cultural knowledge is wide, and nowhere wider than business.
I agree with you completely. There are certainly rent-seeking businesses that do not create value (or net value?). And the majority of businesses are competing in (disrupting) existing markets.

Even if they don't increase total consumer spending by offering better products and winning market share, they do increase consumer _wealth_. I'm glad I can buy a 65" 4k TV for as much as my parents paid for a 15" CRT 20 years ago, adjusted for inflation.

That's the median outcome. Then you get outliers like the sewing machine that greatly increased the productivity of vast amounts of workers, making those users much richer and society wealthier because clothes got cheaper.

I find it disingenuous to claim, as the OP did (perhaps unintentionally), that innovators are bad faith actors playing a zero sum game. Surely that's the exception, not the norm. Just as there are bad actors in academia and any other profession.
Late in life I wondered if/when I had a truly original idea. Not one that I was the first to think of, but one which I came up with all on my own not based upon anything similar I'd already learned. It was hard but I satisfyingly recalled an early instance. I was in grade 7 back in the late 70s being taught that cutting a circle in half and unrolling each half to make the semi-circumference straight thus making a series of triangles (in the limit). Meshing the triangles together makes a parallelogram/rectangle in the limit. This was a demonstration of the formula for the area of a circle.

After seeing this, I thought to myself, Pi is dumb. A diameter is double the radius, so the radius is the fundamental. I tried telling this to a bunch of people, kids or adults who just looked at me funny.

I was so happy to much later learn that there's Tau. And very sad that alien races might hear the beeps of Tau/2 being sent to them by the clueless terrans.
My team is using remote dev boxes for years and I think it’s the best setup.

I couldn’t figure out how best to fit VSCode though. It works remote, and with docker, but it seems very tricky with both?

There's nothing in the article alleging that Brian Armstrong attributed "bad stuff" to being on the autistic spectrum.

The only allegation in the article is that Brian Armstrong did not speak or make decisions at meetings, and attributed this to being on the spectrum. The full quote is:

>"Mr. Armstrong rarely spoke or made decisions in meetings, the current and former employees said, leaving them uncertain about his opinions. In a staff meeting this summer, he said he knew his style made many employees uncomfortable and attributed it to being "on the spectrum,” according to a recording of the event."

There's nothing wrong or "bad" about managers who don't speak and make quick decisions at meetings. It's just a management style, and it's disingenuous IMHO to spin it as some kind of bad behaviour.
This is a ridiculous political hatchet job.
AFAIK it's unnecessary at this point, Linux has most of the equivalent functionality and there is a shim library for it: https://github.com/mheily/libkqueue
Because that's the most notable case of a large company using Haskell. If that's your qualifying criterion, recommending LuaJIT is just as if not even more ridiculous.

Most commercial Haskell is just boring CRUD, like with virtually any other language. There are some interesting projects like Hasura (a decently fast GraphQL engine), but something like Facebook is just a million times more prestigious, so that's what will always be brought up.

While I appreciate the sentiment behind this, with experience comes a sixth sense of what should be rebuilt, and what is better reused/modified. Experience also brings with it an ability to scan through foreign code and get a "feel" for how usable it is.

For example, I've chosen to replace one of the foundational data communication building blocks [1] because, after extensive research, the existing systems can't be modified to handle all of the general use cases I want handled. And it won't stop there, because I also have a number of additional requirements that HTTP won't handle (so there's also a new protocol in the works that will be based off this technology). If I could have simply modified an existing system to do what I want, I certainly wouldn't have spent the last two years on this! I've got plenty of other things demanding my attention...

Thank you for the cites. I also appreciate that you note the distinction between decentralized (local) leadership and leaderless.

I personally favor ad-hoc & on-demand, transient, hiearchical structures, optionally with robust leadership, as the norm for future organizations. Information systems help in making such orders practically viable. I should add that I don't share your disdain for "wise people". It is true that the trust element, to say nothing of actual wisdom provided, are potential bug sources. But some problems do require the top-down approach, and the period preceding an emergent order (consensus) via bottom-up ("do it yourself") approach is non-optimal for certain contingencies.

In general, I think it pays to be flexible and practical when it comes to organizational structure. You mentioned the "ethos" of CNT, which is imho the fundamental driver of organizational health. No social architecture can save a society from its own nature or character defects.
Sabine is very careful about how she defines warp drives in the beginning of the video. A warp drive that is not superluminal is still interesting for other reasons (all reactionless drives are kind of interesting). Also importantly the paper suggests specific mathematical properties of the geometry; namely that they should be flatter in the direction of motion. That is not at all intuitive to me, and certainly not the aesthetics of space ship design in most sci-fi.
