Yes, correlation and causation aren't always straight forward and often the former is used as the latter just to discredit a group of people "in the name of science".
I have never gotten the rated tread lifetime on a tire. I've gone through maybe 60 tires in my lifetime and none of them were replaced due to punctures (I had one repairable puncture). Partly because 90% of my miles are stop/go rather than cruising.
I thought the name of the game in VC was investing in 20+ companies and seeing what sticks. You would need enough money at that point that being an accredited investor would be a foregone conclusion according to the net worth standard.

Investing several thousand here or there on one or two companies seems incredibly risky, riskier than what the pros are willing to tolerate.
How does esbuild compare to Bun, snowpack, Vite, and any other JS bundles? In performance, reliability, and extra features?
(edit -- deleting earlier comment and moving here as a reply.)

This is one of the reasons we're really focusing on local first -- unless you're in a handful of American cities that still has a thriving local press corps, the question isn't really who is first, it's who is covering it at all.

Beyond that, we're trying to move away from the traditional formats that somehow migrated from the print and broadcast worlds online. When you write an article, you have to have all of the information together at once; of course, that's rarely how the reporting process works. By posting it as reporters get information, and as they're comfortable reporting that information -- it not only can get to the consumer quickly, but we hope it can also eliminate some of the mystery behind why a journalist is reporting what they are reporting.
The marketing focuses heavily on reduction in disposed tires as the environmental benefit. If the tire were equal in terms of rolling resistance we'd see them at least mentioning it in the graphics.
The only time they move fast enough to worry about unspung weight is when they are on a trailer.

That isn't strictly true, but in general such equipment spends most of it time moving very slowly it it moves at all. Transports speeds do become a problem, but that is only done for a short time (or you have it on a trailer so you can go faster) so nobody worries about the issue.

Streaming music services like Spotify are a little different. The issue is really with services like Amazon Prime and Apple Music where you're paying for each song but don't really 'own' it. With the older paid music services when I bought a song I got a regular .mp3 that I could use anywhere I wanted and owned for life. With these new services we're not buying a song, we're just renting it for the same price.
> Of course not, but they do actively make decisions based on profit over sustainability.

and that's what they're supposed to do. Make the most profits while abiding by the law. As consumers start caring more about sustainable supply chains so will producers. When their profits get hurt because consumers choose a more sustainable product, then you'll see change. As long as consumers don't care and just want the cheapest thing (which unfortunately has been the great majority of people for the past 100 years) the producers won't care either

It’s really not that complicated, there are no deterrents against bad behavior in San Francisco and Portland. No consequences, and desperate people will break the law.

Either these cities step up and support their law enforcement and stop vilifying them or these problems are only going to get worse.

I know if I owned a shop in San Francisco I would have a gun at it as a deterrent.

GitLab Just (partially) sold.

However: If they don't want to (fully) sell basing the price on a value someone else might eventually pay for a (full) acquisition doesn't make much sense. (Unless you assume they revise the decision, but then the argument about not selling is moot again)
Beyond these superficial issues I'm mostly interested because my company takes in a lot of EE graduates for beginner FPGA roles, and in our experience almost all undergraduate instructive material is 30 years out of date.

What are some of the concepts in FPGA development that aren't taught in academic settings?

If I had to guess I'd wager its stuff in the tooling infrastructure that's built up peripheral or in parallel to HDL - thinking things like Simulink model generation (for digital filter applications), HLS tooling, Chisel, cocotb, Python/TCL build systems (insert grumbling about Vivado GUI here), etc.

My impression is that there hasn't been any revolutionary syntactic developments in HDL syntax in a while, but I also haven't done a whole lot of FPGA work since leaving college.

You misunderstood; the claim is that 20% of the tires that are discarded are due to punctures or improper inflation.

12% of the tires that are discarded are discarded due to punctures or blowouts and 8% of tires that are discarded are discarded due to uneven wear caused by improper inflation.
Some people might shy away from answering this question for fear of coming off as pretentious but the way that I see it is that we all implicitly act out our belief about the meaning of life through our words and actions (or silence and inaction). So you might as well get clear on your own belief. The trippy thing is that some people probably live an entire life without getting clear on this question. For me it's joie de vivre [1]. Joy is my north star in a very primal sense of that phrase (imagine you're navigating a terrain you've never been through and you're relying on the star to keep you in the general correct direction... you never know what's ahead but you can always know whether you're heading towards the star or away or you've lost it entirely). I don't have a clear singular purpose in my life. But it's easy for me to tell when I'm doing something that brings me closer to or further from joy. Right now I'm sitting in Golden Gate Park, sipping a coffee, reading a book about the history/ecology/etc. of Joshua Tree. I'm at peace right now because that star is directly ahead of me. I'll leave it at that and also mention that I wax philosophical a bit in my "sabbatical prologue" post [2].

Thank you. The problem – or at least, my problem – is that "There isn't any point" leads to a feeling of "This is pointless." Wandering around life feeling "This is pointless" when you do anything seems... suboptimal.

But it's true, right? If there's no point, then the conclusion is "This is pointless" for every experience. And it ends up feeling so hollow sometimes.

Relaxing and enjoying it is of course the antidote. But I'm starting to wonder if everyone is relaxing and enjoying life without purpose, and therefore our collective purpose is de facto "Netflix and chill."

There's nothing wrong with that, but it ends up feeling like "Well, I may as well sit around and play Dota; it's just as good as doing anything else, since it's all pointless." And that can't possibly be the proper mindset for life... Can it?
If one's position is "we have to censor the truth because the truth is immoral" then it's worth considering having an "are we the baddies?" moment.
> One thing I didn’t understand from this article is what “giving investment advice” has to do with being an accredited investor and investing into startups. Can someone clarify that?

The article addresses this: the SEC accredited investor classification has several ways to qualify, the older ones are variants of “rich enough to presumably know what they are doing” and the newer ones added are “has one of a specified list of professional licenses/certifications that directly relate to knowing what they are doing with investments”, and the particular one that the author chose to pursue for that purpose was related to giving investment advice.
GitLab's integrated CI came before GitHub actions and was super helpful.
The sibling comment covers it a bit more in detail, but it's largely just some guessing and as much an art to figuring out what the types are or could be. This particular one looks like it's taking a function pointer in and checking if it's a valid function (not null) and then checking the first two bytes of the function. From my memory, the windows ABI uses the first two bytes of functions for installing hooks/debugging by patching the first two bytes into some kind of jump (while originally being nops). The 0x2b part I'm not sure about myself but it looks like some other kind of similar checks.

And actually then thinking about the way it's calling it, i'm wondering if this is actually from some C++ standard library code for doing stuff with a vtable, looking up the vtable entry and checking it's validity before calling it (in this case, location 0x18, and checking some kind of RTTI at 0x28 and 0x2b) and storing that it's been initialized in 0x21. So I think this might be part of an initialization function for some property on top of a object that exists at *param_1. and the decompiler has misinterpreted it as a longlong because of the access patterns (64bit pointers).
Propensity is not the same as purpose, or else we'd say that everything in the universe is already tending to what it is tending to. But if everything is serving its purpose, then we mind as well do away with the word.

> So your thought is that the rail line will be done before the COVID induced delays?

Is COVID19 the only strain we'd see on shipping infrastructure that we'd have over the next 50 to 100 years of China-US trade?

If further stresses are to come out in the decades to come, it makes simple sense to invest into more infrastructure. Now, I don't know if rail is necessarily the best path forward, but its a strange one that's at least worth discussing.

> It's the capacity in the US to unload (and the capacity in China to load) that are being strained.

And an additional unloading spot somewhere else would alleviate the amount of work the LA port has to do.
same goes for the great wall of china. you can't really appreciate its dimensions until you have walked on it.

>I think the port thing is destined to wind down. Mostly this is a temporary fluke - unless climate change or other factors diminish what ports can do.

My understanding is that California has passed laws that have highly discouraged in-state trucking investment, as many older vehicles became unable to be driven in 2020, and entire classes of engines being banned by 2035.

Ports in other states will have to take up the slack.

I don't think there is a point to life. Reminds me of this book: https://www.amazon.com/Spiritual-Warfare-Three-Enlightenment...
This is what I believe too, but I take it 1 step further: life would suck if life had a point. Because that would have all sorts of implications in the goals we should strive for, and the things we should do.

Without a point we are free to pursue whatever meaning we find important.

For me, the point (for the humanity overall) is getting ever closer to perfection, broadly defined. Every time another Bach or Newton is born we take a small step there.

Give people (especially women) access to both education and reproductive freedom. It works wonders.
Yeah, I've met those kind of comments for 15 years.

There is always somebody to say that in those kind of threads. Same as Vi is easy, try Manjaro, Nix, this latest implementation of LISP, that NoSQL db, this DSL, etc.

I used to give them the benefit of the doubt, spend some time testing the alternative the person talked about, came out disappointed, and wasted time.

Now I just trust numbers. When 100 people like you will tell me the same for 3 years, I will try.

Before that, I'll stay on what I know works.

I'm sure some do, but using your enjoyment of life as justification to have a child who has no choice in the matter and could or could not enjoy life themselves is again, selfish.
Overinflated tires will always have better economy than underinflated, all other things being equal. My guess is the average vehicle owner could improve overall fuel economy by about 0.5-1.0% by making sure their tires are at the correct pressure.
I assume you mean human or sentient life, rather than life in general.

Me, I like to think we’re here so the universe can look at itself.

On a more pragmatic and personal level, to live, to experience, to be finite yet utterly unbounded. I deal with the nihilistic ocean over which we swim by making a point of stopping to smell the roses - to borrow from Buddha by way of Gandhi - “The Path is the Goal”. To borrow from Ferris Bueller - “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you might just miss it. “

Not sure if this applies but the Obama administration has spoken previously about how releasing/publishing their visitor list was something they regretted. They got mild accolades at the time of doing it (in a move to be more transparent that other administrations) and then the right wing (mainly) used the visitor log to make hay for 8 years. Then the Trump admin stopped releasing the info and no one made a big deal about it (relative to the number of stories written about who showed up on the lists the Obama admin released).

What are the conditions that should be fulfilled for you to see that there's competition in the market?

For me, it's the existence of a player that can squeeze the margin for others.

With only seller giving people access to iMessage and app store, I don't see this condition fulfilled. Even if there is a well made phone that offers better utility for half the price, most users would just wait for iPhone to catch up rather than switch.
