This whole thing seems like a wrong take. I don’t think TMSC even registers Intel as competition these days.

Intel vs X is a tiny market. Most CPUs don’t go in x86 machines, and the chip companies choose fabs on so many more variables than just “nm”. Products pick chips on higher level stats than that: price, power, performance, features, footprint, heat, etc.

Consumers usually don’t know or care what CPU is in their device (phones, tablets, watches, doorbells, coffee mugs, etc). They pick for features, fashion, and product ecosystem.

And the cloud/data center market (maybe the last bastion of x86) only cares about price + performance per watt.

I think the only people who pay attention to this stuff are PC gamers, and they’re a niche within a niche. And even that is more of a Ford vs Chevy market of brand loyalty.

Maybe some market analysts use it to ding Intel, but I think that’s a minor detail in a much gloomier picture.
I'm reminded of a suggestion from someone else a few days go if you don't mind PHP

>https://bref.sh/ -- it allows running PHP apps on AWS Lambda effortlessly. With all the serverless craze, it's a very important piece of the ecosystem. After writing PHP apps for two decades, I am absolutely stunned how easy it is.

Always with this excuse, but I really doubt it. There's just a million manufacturers of this or technology similar to this. Many of them have failed and people usually would only notice and care _after_ they failed.

> whilst also allowing governments to control access to accounts and adjust the money supply if necessary. It's a win-win for everyone.

In what way is more government surveillance and control over accounts a win for the average citizen? The rich will always find a way like they do with taxes, and it's the average person that suffers every time.
I would start with separating the frontend and backend, as some others have suggested. I would probably use react but could try svelte or vue also. In the start you can mock the backend or have a memory-kept version of it.

For backend (the api) I would go for c# or nodejs (maybe with nextjs). I might combine this with a serverless solution like Architect.

I totally hear this, and sometimes product teams are just desperately grasping at anything that looks unique about their product to claim "differentiation".

On the other hand, you need to consider what happens if the prospect doesn't follow through. After all, As a buyer I often pit vendors against each other to get a better deal. Even if it's a common feature like "LDAP authentication support" it may only matter to enterprise customers, and your product might be better for SMB firms. A good test of this is to ask whether they'd be willing to sign a contract with a lump sum payment/longer term dependent on feature delivery. Bear in mind, the prospect offering to dump Competitor B may not be the most influential internal stakeholder of Competitor B (think Tech infra offering to switch DB vendors when the Dev team would scream bloody murder).

If this feature burns up 12 weeks of dev time, and you dropped a product feature to make it happen then you're out both the cost of dev time and the opportunity cost for the other feature being delayed a quarter. For a small/medium startup, it's entirely plausible the "one needed feature" doesn't show up as a customer/prospect ask for another year.

When it comes to "take-out" deals where a customer is offering to "switch" from one product to another you always need to be cautious that your product wasn't added to the comparison for completeness. If you're going to burn your VC building one-off features for a big firm - you better get good marketing out of it and a long-term contract.

With all that being said, there are worse PMs than paying customers. If your team is fast, and you have money in the bank - then building whatever customers tell you they want isn't as bad of a product strategy as most devs/PMs would let you think.

This idea is actually pretty old. Old episodes of Groucho Marx's "You Bet Your Life" have a place in the frame for advertisers to be superimposed and swapped out.

Doing this on a gameshow seems strangely acceptable, but don't touch the old films please. Even though old films themselves have product placement (continuing with the Marx Brothers - you can see an old cartoon-style flit gun in Animal Crackers (1930), which was used for one of the earlier product tie-ins), manipulating them seems wrong. People want to experience the movie as it was intended to be...

Unfortunately, this assumes everyone is a master at C and that we are comparing straight line speed. In the real world, higher level languages have a much better comparison since everyone's C program has their own slow, buggy "standard" library instead of the hyper optimized ones of higher level languages. One of the major reasons why that is the case is because C, at a language design level, makes building those kinds of high level, interesting, performant, and safe APIs hard
If OP is a beginner, I think Elm's integrated approach (less fighting with build tools), pretty good docs, and larger ecosystem will be easier to learn than the more powerful, less united, and less documented ReasonML.

WHAT patents. ALL these technologies are about 40 years old. There are even mentions in this thread of the Game Boy / Color since they use very similar stuff.

There are few if any patents involved here -- the problem is that there is just no demand. The moment you show someone the flashy backlighted screen he will go for it 100% of the time and ditch everything else (think: there's a reason people "upgrade" their GameBoyAdvance's to a backlight).

You should ask for surprising and reproducible. Surprising and wrong is too easy.
This is a pretty good introduction into the nuance of COGS, but I find that it really isn't as useful of a valuation metric unless the company primarily sells inventory of some sort. MoviePass is an interesting example because it is sort of a mixture between a tech company and a traditional retail company with inventory, and its failure seems to be somewhat due to it trying to act like a pure tech company leveraging a deficit spending strategy.

For tech companies, the important thing is to understand the breakdown of your total costs: fixed and variable. Compare MoviePass to another tech company like Facebook. They both have similar fixed costs like rent, servers, and developers, but Facebook's variable costs per user are bytes of data which cost fractions of a penny, whereas MoviePass had larger variable costs per person because they actually had to buy the movie tickets as "inventory". You can pay a single developer a fixed salary per year whether 10 people are running their software or 10 million people, but your costs will be vastly different if your users see 10 movies per year compared to 10 million. MoviePass was gaining $10 per month per user, but since each user was costing more than $10 per month, no amount of scale would have saved them.[0] This is very different from companies who have virtually zero variable costs and actually increase in profitability (and valuation) from each additional user they recruit.

Plastic breaks down is horrible ways and gets everywhere.
It's hard to clean well enough to be recycled.
Even when recycled it's still constantly breaking down into micro-particles and getting everywhere.

If we can't persuade retailers to use something else I kind of think that the best and cleanest use for single use plastic might be to just incinerate it with a very good scrubber system on the exhaust from the incinerator.

Get the energy back and do something useful with it. e.g. use it as base load for renewable energy sources like wind and solar.

Anything but let it get buried or broken down and into water courses.

Thank you for the question. The reason we encourage Enterprise customers to get in touch is so that we can better understand their needs and walk them through a customized onboarding process. In my experience with large customers, the sooner you engage them in a conversation the better, because it reduces the risk that they might miss an important feature while browsing the software on their own.

Regarding the Business tier being highlighted, that's because while using PriceTable ourselves, we have found the the feature set it offers actually lets one get the most out of the product. :)

I don't think that suffices, because I have never heard European countries described as "undeveloped" (perhaps "underdeveloped"), if that. The benefit of the doubt usually orbits a common sentiment, and in this case there is a conspicuous incongruity.

As for the edit: "The test takers were self-selected." The tests also seem to be online-only, and by that measure, likely textual.

I'll say that there is an explanation for the phenomenon I've described: if one has the privilege to conduct business and socialize in one's native language, speaking proficiency in a lingua franca could likely be lower.
Gnome Foundation rises lots of money from both companies and individuals and there are gnome developers working full-time or part-time and being paid to do it, so this old argument "this is free software, they work for free in their spare time, they owe you nothing" doesn't apply in this context.

Indeed, and when oil producing assets become increasingly stranded in the markets, the industry will not simply retire them at a loss. They will be sold on to buyers who face less regulatory oversight.

When the oil companies are finally out of the hydrocarbon game, they will have built their platform upon the biggest set of externalised costs in history, and their old assets will still be polluting in new hands.

My take: It's a communication issue.

If you tell me you're going to make my life easier by teaching me "Roman numeral Analysis", I'm gonna run away. That sounds scary and vaguely reminds me of Latin class.

"Nashville number system" sounds easy to master. It's country, and country has a well-known self-imposed reputation as simple. (In truth, country can be just as complicated as anything else. But I'm talking about first impressions.)

I used to be a part of a congregation whose band spoke in 5ths and 7ths and I had no idea what they were going on about. And then I learned that part of joining the band was learning the Nashville system. It's just the simplest way to get everyone on the same page, and when you say "Nashville" musicians immediately relate to what you're saying.
You might be right here.
This is getting out of hand.

They had a pop-culture bump a few months ago, but are down since then.

A $4B valuation with 'speculation / risk built in' means they really think it's worth $20-50B.

FYI to those commenting that Twitter/FB will have the same features, I don't believe that this is the threat, as the specific nature of the experience matters as well as even the brand etc.. The 'risk' for Clubhouse is merely that the experience doesn't scale and is not interesting to most people, which I think will be the case.

The number of this-is-how-I-got-rich-you-can-too rooms is just far too much.

The most important limitation I see is that the ephemeral nature of the content means we can't 'let the good stuff come to the top' meaning - you have to sit and slog through the audio yourself to get to the nuggets. TikTok 'works' because they quickly move the uninteresting stuff to the background. And of course, without serious monetization, the big names who draw crowds will stay away, although that could change.

This is short term but worth a look [1]

> Popups are positioned away from the link and do not cover up the original link, which can be clicked on like normal. (You can also click on the obvious thing in the popup, the title, which is a hyperlink to the original.)

This was absolutely not the case, at least on my viewport size. FWIW, I also didn't realize about clicking on "the obvious thing in the popup", possibly because this is never a thing that you click on in websites.

> The scroll thing is definitely bad, but fixing it is a little difficult.

What's the motivation for this being a hover effect? Seems like clicking on the link to open it is a pretty well-tested paradigm.

One big difference between what I saw on your site and Wikipedia is that Wikipedia's are only previews and (AFAICT) feature no internal interactions.
"Digital currency" is a wide term. At one extreme it can be a token that can be used anonymously and without the need for a bank in the same way coins and bank notes are today: As long as people are satisfied that they are genuine they are happy to accept them as payment.

The point being is that what is referred to as "digital currency" is not what we have now (otherwise the BoE and others would not be studying feasibility and costs/benefits). In that sense currency is not digital at the moment. Bank ledgers and transfer instructions are.

This is just based on assumption that these "researchers" are anything different from politicians. I have seen very very few university professors etc honestly talk about degrees their department is offering are just not worth the money especially for people who are taking large education loans.

It’s not a mere semantic debate - if I understand correctly (not a virologist or anything) the implications are huge.

Droplets are ejected from the face and basically fall straight to the ground. This is what makes things like six feet “socially distancing” rules effective - you basically need to be in a direct, face-to-face interaction with someone to spread the virus. Airborne transmission in the technical sense means that the virus can float along in the air, potentially for hours in a poorly ventilated space: most social distancing NPIs become nearly meaningless. Staying outside or improving indoor ventilation become the big things that matter.

Also, droplets are large and are stopped effectively even by the sort of cheap, relatively loose-fitting masks people are wearing. If airborne transmission is a major problem, that’s no longer really the case; we all need N95s to make much of an impact.

Actually, on Mars it's relatively easy to have a gas be lighter than the atmosphere; the atmosphere is mostly CO2, so most common gases, including nitrogen, are lighter than it. The problem is that since the air is very thin, you don't get much lift for a given volume. So for Mars you need a very big balloon, but it can be filled with almost anything.

(Side note: balloons have actually been used on Venus already, on the Vega missions!)
