Having an order of magnitude (maybe two) fewer lines of code goes a long way to having fewer vulnerabilities. Given the longer and more rigid development cycle and smaller attack surface, it's reasonable to think there are relatively few defects.
This appears to be a faster growing segment than can be explained by infertility alone, though the recorded rates are also increasing over time.

The company could be profitable tomorrow if they wanted to.

It's not like this is some grand, new, unproven business concept, or one that is only competitive due to VC capital. They sell shoes, and they sell them at a decent profit. There are lots of large apparel companies out there making stacks of money, many of whom started off selling shoes.

This is not Uber/AirBnb, it's Adidas/Puma/Nike.
It makes sense, but people have always had kids that they couldn't afford. The statistic matches up with what I've experienced at work and with friends, where older people without children aren't as concerned with being responsible with their money because nobody depends on them for support, while the older people with kids are much more diligent about monitoring the amount of money they spend.
If you feel like this now, I suggest having a kid before it’s “too late,” otherwise you may have regret later. Am noting that for a male, too late is a very flexible thing.
If OP is a man and has no sisters, then he can't say "first in this direct line of descent NOT to have a daughter" because his parents had no daughters either.

I don’t think consumer cleaning technology products like this keep up with the rate of change of underlying technologies. People get used to doing certain things (e.g. ironing) and want to keep doing it the same way their parents taught them.

I’d instead look more at commercial cleaners (e.g. how shirts are cleaned/pressed for shipment to stores) if you want to see the bleeding edge of cleaning technology.

(It’s sort of like home consoles vs. arcade machines in the 80s/90s. Home consoles had to optimize for affordability, while arcade machines could essentially be expensive operationalized prototypes as long as they paid for themselves.)
I agree which is why I find ChromeOS's marketing campaign strange[1]. The commercials talk about no viruses, never slowing down, etc. Basically pointing out common issues with traditional OSes.

Not the person you replied to, but how about suffix and least common prefix arrays? Once it clicks how they work they feel quite simple, but can still be quite tricky to grok until then.
Early on many of us raved about that sort of thing too before we realized how bad it was.
As Hamming suggested in "Art of doing science and engineering", when you want to make something autonomous, you usually have to build a completely different device that solves the same problem, rather than automating the same device.

I wonder. For all the money thrown into self-driving cars research, could we have had an autonomous rail system by now? The technology for mostly-autonomous rail is well understood. Most of the financial cost is in infrastructure to support the system. Seems to me self-driving cars try to short-circuit that infrastructure build-up. They try to "automate the device" rather than "producing an automated system that solves the problem of moving people and goods".

Specifically, I wonder if, for the cost and time spent on CPU-and-engineer-driven research and development of autonomous cars, if we could have had nationwide autonomous rail rolled out by now.
From what I've seen, the smart ones with good business sense are the ones who make real money in the trades, and they're mostly doing sales, supervision, training, and maybe personally handling some limited amount of the trickier bits of the actual labor (or cases where they have to come back to fix things, if they really care about customer service), by some time in their 30s. They may acquire some minor, persistent aches and pains from the work in their 20s or early 30s, but are mostly out of the rougher side of the job before it seriously harms their QOL. Like a lot of business, the real money's in selling other people's labor at a markup, not in selling your own labor.
I solved that with a Virtualbox'ed Windows 10 where I install all the stuff required by my company (Forticlient, Zoom, etc.) that can't be safely installed in Linux. No issues so far.

Well as a catholic who lived in the bay area for many years the Catholics there have well above the average number of children.
>It holds that reasonable people strike a suitable balance between their own immediate desires and the good of the community at large.

Well there's you problem. People don't agree on what is good for the community. Someone might wish to stear a community in a particular direction, with the best intentions of improve the community for all its members, but to others that will seem completely unreasonable and hostile.
Whoa, I hadn't thought of a sprite sheet, but that's a great idea actually. It shouldn't be too hard to generate one of these. How many favicons in one sheet are you thinking?
The operative keyword there is "hardcore", and it applies for either political direction:

I guarantee lots of conservatives also walk on eggshells around hardcore leftists for the sake of cordiality, just as cordial lefts walk around eggshells near radical conservatives.

Naturally, cordial people's politics are harder to tell, especially near a radical.
"it's only 3% of our users so we don't need to test on FF" to "it's a quarter of our user base, we should at least test it"

> I agree, religion offers simple ways to classify actions as good or bad. Following the church teachings or priest's guidance was enough to make an individual confident they are a good person, doing good things.

The unfortunate thing is that this sums up the current state of religious education because we've had a generation that was poorly taught, who then taught the next generation. Now the generation we are raising is not even being taught - which might actually be a good thing since those that are interested will seek that knowledge for themselves instead of being turned off by poor educators.

But for Catholic moral theology for example, it's generally quite complex and exceedingly individual for all but the most black and white situations. What is a sin for me, may not be for you. "Sin" is also in itself a catchall for a whole subset of types of sin - and they're almost all relative to the individual because it will depend on the extent of your free choice, your understanding, and the gravity of the situation. People think it's the 10 Commandments, but that's really just the one thing someone who was poorly educated would remember.

And it's quite tragic because it's actually a whole journey that begins with natural law. Then slowly, over generations, you get small revelations of what God's moral teaching is until you reach a big moment with the revelation of Mosaic law (part of which are the 10 Commandments). Then generations later, you have Jesus drop by and quite literally say that because you were too hard of heart, that was the law revealed to you, but that now you are ready for a higher moral standard.

Even if one has no interest in Catholicism, it's fascinating to watch from the perspective of the evolution of a moral code over generations.

And then you have to consider that Catholic moral theology is just the foundation for Catholic social teaching, which is exactly what is taught to deal with the everyday complex issues where it may not even be a question of "is this a sin?", but rather, "how should I act?".
Sure, banning GMO's outright would be a huge problem, but is it so awful that they be tested first?

I don't know if they test for this, but GMOs do run the risk of become invasive or destructive species which could potentially tilt things towards the "devastating famine" side of the equation.

I don't think the ecological concern is what most people worry about when they think GMOs, and I'm not of the mind that GMOs = Bad, but I think we owe it to ourselves to study the ecological impact of GMOs we plan to grow widely.
I’ve had the opposite in my social circle. People generally try to be reasonable and so that suggestion is extremely rarely made. When received, it tends to be positively received as a time to self reflect and evaluate.

That said, the wording used is more like “are you sure you’re approaching this reasonably?” rather than as an assured statement of “you are being unreasonable”, and I feel that difference may be significant in terms of distribution of response.
1. Video games. Easily the biggest one. I don't want to have to potentially jump through hoops or be completely unable to play a game by chance every time I download a new game.

2. The subtle issues from various audio devices, mice, printers, GPU driver support, etc. Or just driver/hardware support in general.

3. Learning the equivalent (or worse) software for the various little things that need to get done like picture editing, video editing, editing doc/docx files, etc.

4. Attempting to fix issues leading to multi-page long support involving installing new software, editing configs, running cryptic commands, etc. (Not that Windows is much better, since most big issues seem to lead me to the suggestion of a fresh install. and there have been some issues caused by updates that I haven't been able to fix to this day.)

Are you looking for 100% effectiveness? That's not how anything in the world works. If I can reduce the probability of spreading infection, that is a clear benefit to society. If enough people reduce the probability of spread enough, we can reach a point where for all practical purposes, the virus is gone.

> saying that you don't identify with either the left or the right often means that you're OK with the status quo

To me, saying that you do identify with either the left or the right (or conversely, that you don't identify with both the left and the right, on some points) means you're OK with the status quo. They're both led by political machines that attract people's mindshare by talking about grassroots problems, and then transmute that support into the policies their sponsors paid for. There's no money to be made in solving the real grassroots problems, and doing so would actually diminish their recruitment.

Vote pragmatically all you want, but don't mislead yourself into thinking either political team is actually fighting against the status quo.
Google will use TPUs. Their own technology.

Do you think Facebook would rather use Tesla Dojo instead of NVidia DGX A100 computers? Do you think any company, would rather choose this Dojo to build their internal software-stack on top of instead of CUDA / OpenCL / whatever?

I mean, its possible. But Tesla needs to start pumping out Github pages, documents, books, etc. etc. to document how exactly to use Dojo.

1) It's adjusted EBITDA which makes it even more meaningless.

> What is interest, if not an expense? What is tax, if not an expense? What is depreciation if not an expense? Alright, amortization, yeah, that one could get added back in – I buy that.

2) There is a specific reason these get taken out, because they generally represent values that the company either has little control over (taxes) or represent episodic expenditures (capital purchases, or debt raises) that have meaningful life greater than 1 year. D/A are essentially synonymous. So, no, D/A are not expenses, because they are simply representations of capital expenditures shown as expenses (the distinction is important) throughout the useful life the asset (intangible or tangible).

Easy way to illustrate this is an airline who buys an airplane in year 1 and then uses that plane for 30 years. If EBITDA wasn't useful, then calculating their earnings over a period time won't tell you anything about trends of the business health.

The devil is in the details. EBITDA is not all that bad, it's just not a "one figure to rule them all", especially since most firms create an "Adjusted" version of it to fit some narrative (and they always do).

To your point. The cashflow statement is much more important IMHO.

This is affecting all parts of our culture.

High school debate is starting to see the same sort of techniques seen in online discourse: Winning at all costs. Which leads to talking over people, steamrolling, shouting matches, the gish-gallop.

The status quo may be broken. That doesn't mean I agree with any given side's approach to fixing it. (And "we have to do something, this is something, therefore we have to do this" is stupid logic.)

If the status quo is bad, that doesn't mean we can't make it much worse by applying the wrong fix.
> Steel, copper, concrete, rare earths, etc. all require fossil fuels.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean by this, but in most ways it could be interpreted, that's not true.

Copper doesn't require fossil fuels, and if it did then we'd come up with an alternative.
For "crypto" transactions, on-chain is no longer seen as a stringent requirement. In fact, the entire DeFi ecosystem wouldn't exist if there wasn't a cryptographically-secure way of doing transactions off-chain on second-level chains (0x, Polygon, Compound etc) or on chain of chains (Polkadot, Cosmos, Kava etc), or on chains built for payments (Celo, Diem, Stellar etc).

Beside, Orchid.com whitepaper talks about doing nanopayments on-chain, which is quite a radical approach.
As someone who owned only 2-in-1 laptops for years now, virtual keyboards are the bane of my use case. Microsoft's is the best one (with Gnome's at a distant second), but that doesn't mean it's good.

Of course it will be faster. It's achieved by dropping compatibility with older slower hardware.
As a host, even if airbnb bans me, I can still do whatever I want with my own property. That is not true when it comes to iPhone. I am out of luck as a user and also as a dev, my phone becomes a paperweight unless I abide by apple's rules.
There is another comment in this thread about how “Microsoft has put lipstick on a pig and hasn’t made what the users actally need”.

Quite opposite - we can be sure that Microsoft have focused on what features to develop for Win11 based on telemetry data from Win10. Whats so bad about that? (Sadly, turns out what the majority needs is not realy what the small tech crowd “needs”)

I’ve never really understood the outrage. Win11 IS the culmination of Win10 telemetry data.

In the “good old days”, when we drove to fix our cars to a dealer- they catalogued how worn out are some parts together with mileage. To know which ones to improve for next models. How is this different than telemetry? Or new?
The best way is to install uBlock (or your preferred ad blocker), not to disable javascript.

Javascript is like a knife. Do I want people who know how to use a knife in my house? Yes of course. Do I want people that stab other people in my house? No. Nowadays there are tools to leave those people outside your door.

It's time to end the association between javascript and bad web practices.

No, especially not for non-technical users. I support a popular software package and we run integrity checks on our own binaries - in recent months, the number of people that contact us and send us samples of our binaries infected with some common trojan on Windows 7 has skyrocketed. And that's just infectious malware.

IMO, Windows Defender is the greatest thing Microsoft has done with Windows 10.

Same, and same for MacOS if on your own hardware. Instead I'm looking to Linux; I've been testing it as a desktop system in a VM for work and enjoying it.

I need to keep Adobe Creative Suite running which is the only software likely to prevent this happening; now that the online version of Word is improved then customer expectations that I have Word & Excel are mostly matched (I won't revisit the problems with LibreOffice et al here - the Microsoft version still wins out when everyone else is using it).
Because you want to get out of the house and socialize with people as well as get some exercise. Now some of the same logic does apply to people wanting to get back into office. But I doubt it's true to the same degree and most people have more than a 10-15 minute commute.

While I have no personal interest in gyms or exercise classes, they are social for many people.

The MERV or other rating of a filter is not what's important to your furnace (it's what's important to the humans) but what matters is how much airflow through the filter can be achieved by the furnace fan and how much pressure drop the filter induces.

If you get a MERV 12 filter with LOTS of filter material, it may flow more air at a lower pressure drop than a MERV 6 filter with minimal filter material. Look for more pleats in the filter or modify (or hire an HVAC contractor to modify) your furnace filter cabinet to accept a thicker filter cartridge.

For reference, in my furnace during an HVAC consultation, we saw the same 0.5 inches of water pressure drop from a cheap 3M Filtrete MERV 7 filter as with a K&N reusable MERV 12 filter. The K&N has MUCH more filter material.

You don't want to restrict the airflow to your furnace any more than is necessary. Most furnaces will have their required maximum pressure drop from the duct work and filter printed on a label inside. You can get a differential pressure meter to measure the actual pressure drops yourself, or hire an HVAC technician to do an audit of your furnace (often they'll do lots of other neat tests and give you lots of data and reports and info, too).

> There is structural integrity to OSX, but it’s like a civil engineering project where the integrity is gradually being retrofitted over time.

Despite the engineered "user-friendliness" of the OS, it still suffers from a simple problem, which is this: how can a user make a button for themselves? There are buttons all over the system. Users know how to interact with them. But the only consistently supported way to make a "real" button is to learn a full low-level language and all the dev tools and classes that go with it. That is not good design.
The parent comment is right. EBITDA is used for both industry comparison as well as YoY trends. For YoY it's used to try to eliminate "noise".
