That's all fine and good, but once any single component of that block of embodied carbon fails the whole thing is now e-waste. Which means I guess apple is buying up carbon offsets in order to recycle that e-waste back into a new M2 or M3 mac? How much faith do you have in carbon offsets? The aluminum and rare earth elements are recycled - what about the rest of it?

A modular design means a failed SSD only sends the SSD - not the entire product - into the waste (recycle?) chain.

Apple has a lot of engineering resources, and the fact that they are not spending those resources to make a computer that will still be in service in 10, 15, or 20 years is the problem.
Yeah, throw your model at: "contractors took six months longer than expected to finish the kitchen"

Extrapolate that out a hundred thousand times and you get a sense of what they were trying to manage. How did they predict remodel costs? Pre-pandemic material costs and back-of-the-napkin labor estimates?

I didn't say this "make it so tenants can't defend themselves". My argument is that punitive policies against landlord are about the only tool being wielded, and the only tool proposed, along with the only alternative being nuclear options.

I think there's definitely a problem that needs to be addressed, and that many landlords are bad actors in many markets, and that may tenants are bad actors in many other markets. I'm not even sure that landlording makes sense, it's rather feudal. I'm pro realistic rent control. I just think that, short of throwing away the entire system and making a revolution (that would kill millions), we should approach the problem from a carrot and stick perspective, not a stick-only perspective.

If you want to make eviction hard for the average tenant, fine. But if you leave it at that, where's the incentive for renting to riskier tenants? There's nothing re-balancing the risk exposure, nothing that makes up for the risk-adjusted expected loss of renting to a risky tenant. If we want these risky tenants to be housed _while_ preventing undue evictions, we need to fix up the incentive structure so that landlords still have something to gain from renting to risky tenants. Otherwise, why would they do it?
I think the hope is that 420,000 of those users are Grandmas who installed backblaze because their son told them it's a good idea to make sure she doesn't lose all her important documents, and she's backing up a couple PDFs.

And then the other 10,000 are data hoarders like me with Terabytes of data.

I used to be a Crashplan customer - tried them and Backblaze, and liked Crashplan more. They eventually pivoted to Business only.

I was at AWS Re:invent and came up to their booth and bemoaned the loss of a great service. They said "How much data were you backing up?" I told them. They said "yeah, we lose a ton of money on every user like you."

Fair enough!
can we have some port holes?
That radar is actually measuring the sea height. Sea height (on average) more-or-less defines the geoid (the height of an equipotential surface) over the oceans. That ignores sea height disturbances due to winds, currents, tides, etc.
The geoid, in turn, is sensitive to local mass distributions. So yes, "it has been done", but the result is nowhere near the resolution or interpretability of a sonar survey.
Still, it would greatly surprise me if the military _wasn't_ already using the technique. So, if there were interpretable results from the technique, I would personally expect the Navy already had them...
About six years ago I had a resource manager deny me a database instance the very same day it became available for flex in another product area. I tried to "Hey Mister" resources from someone in that group to no avail. Eventually I wrote a high-durability key-value store on top of our source control system and told them they could give me my database or I'd be deploying to prod.
This is an interesting lesson in algo trading run wild. Roughly, house prices have a fundamental ceiling, and it is determined by the size of the monthly payment that banks will allow the typical homebuyer to assume when approving a loan.

If Zillow was the only iBuyer in a particular market, then that ceiling would likely have held, as all other non-zillow sales would still be operating under the loan approval constraint, and that would get reflected in the comps. But in a market with multiple ibuyers, none of which are capital constrained, it would make sense that they run up the prices against each other, past what the local homebuyers can afford.

Not sure how much that actually played a role here. But could be fun to do some back of the napkin math to see if that was the case in some of these markets.
I'm sorry if I missed something, but you twice paid for long subscriptions for a service that did not work for you? What made you choose the two year plan when trying it the second time? Why did you pick the two year option at all the first time before trying it?

It can, but it's more downward pressure on higher cost homes (eg coastal metros). Even with higher rates, average home prices can increase like in the 60s through 80s, albeit just to keep up with inflation from higher interest rates.

I'm very fond of my Kinesis Advantage2 LF. However, it takes some getting used to. For me, it also makes using standard layout keyboards difficult because my brain has been rewired to use the Kinesis.

It is very ergonomic. I no longer get wrist and shoulder pain while typing. I wasn't sure I'd like the keyswitches, but those have grown on me as well. I used to get joint pain in my knuckles due to firmer Gateron Blue switches in another keyboard.

If I could change one thing I would have the shell and keycaps made of PBT instead of ABS, other than that it is by far my favorite keyboard. I can't go back. It's on the expensive side but well worth the money.
> When you are "visiting" each room in your house, I think you are walking through a recalled simulation that is created in your working memory, e.g. a visuo-spatial sketchpad, using the same type of information that is stored in my brain.

It's an interesting idea. But I don't think most people remember faces for example like that.
A counterpoint to your last statement is that if Zillow really knew residential real estate they wouldn’t have had such large losses this quarter.

It really calls into question their pricing algorithm, but I give them credit for actually trying to get into buying and selling properties.
Is this the case?

Transportation and logistics (especially national and international) is highly regulated, but the software is highly usable compared to medical records.

Hedge fund automated trading software needs to pass innumerable compliance requirements. But the software is superb.

Low-latency arbitrage software has incredible compliance burdens, but is some of the best engineered code on the planet.
What interests you specifically? I've never read a nutrition textbook front-to-back but I spend a good portion of my time reading research and opinions on nutrition. I think I've cobbled together a pretty good education on the topic over the past decade. I'm sad to say 99% of what I've read has been hack science, stupidly obvious or minute in importance.

It's almost troubling to me how far you can go just following Michael Pollan's old chestnut: eat (real) food, not too much, mostly plants. Barring any intolerances that right there will get you to near-optimal nutrition for general health in 8 words.

I don't think there's really any "unlimited backup" solutions left outside of backblaze. Back when storage was cheap I could see users switching if you upped the price, the datahoarders that actually use the storage don't really have anywhere to go anymore.

I don't understand this argument. It's okay for things to be a certain way, because things are typically that way?

Apart from the circular reasoning, the practical impact is that you should also drop privacy review because corporations steal your data, security review because everyone gets hacked, readability review because there's a lot of legacy code, etc.

Anyone who has been following the recent market would only say one thing: Bullish
I think it's more saying that there is a line where making it easier and easier for tenants to defend themselves has effects on the total number of houses available for rent, and at a certain point, may reduce the number of housed people.
If there was a 10M fee for any evictions, it would certainly reduce the number of unjust evictions, but many landlords would be unwilling to assume that risk and just choose to not rent the property. Obviously its an extreme example, but there is a line somewhere where we can optimize for maximizing our housing supply usage.
I’d like to add a #3 to the list, which I’ll half-jokingly name “ruined by working at a large company learned helplessness”

My company is small and we have very small teams (1-4 people). One person recently hired has been working at successively larger companies over the years (I’ve known him for a long time). Sometimes he’ll do something like this: stop working on a task he’s been assigned, say “test data needed”, and just totally bow out until someone else makes it for him.

As I said, this is a small team. He knows how to make his own test data, and sometimes there is even a UI dedicated to making the kind of data he needs. But he has learned from working at larger companies that he can sometimes just pass his work onto someone else (perhaps even an entire other team dedicated to the thing he doesn’t want to do) instead of stepping up to the plate to do such a trivial thing on his own.

To be clear, this is just an example (which has actually happened) and other similar “not my job” thinking/actions have shown up repeatedly. Many years ago we worked together on a small team and he was not like this at that time.
If your goal is to deliver the most value possible to the company you work for, your attitude is correct.

My goal is to enjoy my life. To a certain extent, bringing value is enjoyable. So I try and work hard and do a good job. But if someone makes my day worse, no matter how valuable they are to my employer, I don't want to work with them.

I just can't imagine hiring someone you know you won't like. I'm not saying every person that's hired has to be best friends, but with the amount of time everyone spends together there should be at least some level of friendship.

You could use any email provider that you want, like MailChimp, Sendgrid, etc. Since connecting custom domains doesn't require you to point your nameservers to Typedream, you can add MX records, etc. that is usually required for you to set up your email provider.

Thanks for your explanation on A/B testing, that makes sense and we have had a couple of similar requests as well! This is definitely something we're looking to add as a feature.
You cannot short an IPO.

You cannot short post IPO until the stock becomes marginable.

What you can do, if have a lot of $$, is have one of the desks immediately at after the IPO write you a synthetic short position using an over the counter option.
Yeah, I agree on all points (I’m a proponent of legalization and live in a country with legal pot). I’ve witnessed first-hand the effects of prolonged meth addiction and it is not pretty. Your point of making it available by prescription is the good and obvious path. But will still be available as a party drug via illegal means of production and distribution.

If you're particularly interested in this topic, I'd encourage you to look at primary research and not just NY Times. The academic field for technology in healthcare is generally "biomedical informatics" or "health informatics". AMIA (amia.org) is the main association I'd look at, although industry conferences (like HIMSS) might also be interesting for a look at what companies are pitching these days.

I think the main issue comes down to pressures for many different stakeholders. The large EHR vendors (like Epic) were originally designed to replace paper processes, and so they're customizable to a fault. Then, obviously, you gotta pay for the software (Epic has historically not dealt with contracts that are less than $100M, or at least that's what the rumor has always been in informatics circles), and so billing optimization gets tacked on. Issues like usability get studied regularly, but it seems like a more common topic in academic circles than in industry circles. EHRs have historically been closed systems, so you can only really make improvements if your vendor makes improvements (Epic has also, at times, contractually prohibited tools from being added on to their software) -- so, you can't rely on third parties to improve.

Silicon Valley enters the chat So, entrepreneurs see this disaster and think they can disrupt and fix the problem. Only, they know very little about the actual space. Look at the backgrounds of the founding teams of EHR startups (e.g., Practice Fusion, DrChrono) or healthcare startups with home grown EHRs (e.g., Carbon Health). There's very sparse prior healthcare experience. And, while it's totally possible to learn the space, it's hard to learn the space without repeating other's mistakes first.

So, there's been over a decade's (err, actually over 3 decades) worth of effort put in to building standards for interoperability, but the main players at the table have been the Epics... the startup scene has mostly sat it out (either because they think they can build better standards, or they're simply not aware of these efforts existing). So that just creates more tech debt, but without many of the healthcare startup CTOs realizing they've incurred more tech debt. If you've ever wondered why One Medical doesn't integrate with Apple Health, this is your answer ;)

There's a ton of really good work going on in this space though. It just gets overshadowed by 20 years of crappy user experiences with EHRs. Check out companies like Canvas Medical, or researchers like Julia Adler-Milstein or Genevieve Melton-Meaux.

If the advice is to eat lower on the food chain - more simple whole foods - instead of highly processed foods and sugary snacks, it seems like good advice. At least it has been in everyone I know who does so. On the other hand if it is an indictment of simple carbohydrates like potatoes, I'd say it's too simplistic. One guy ate nothing but potatoes for two months; his health improved and he lost weight[1]. If it's just simple carbohydrates are bad that shouldn't have happened.

It would be fascinating to hear the insider perspective. What exactly went wrong at Zillow with their approach? What were they not able to solve that OpenDoor could?

This assumes that OD isn't a house of cards.
Were these mostly SDEs? If any Zillow employee is reading this: best of luck! This must be hard to go through.
> Everything has gone up massively and for seemingly no reason.

The reason is quite obvious. Just like bond values and yields are inversely correlated, mortgage rates and home values are inversely correlated. Here is a chart of the 30Y mortgage rate, it should explain everything.

TLDR; Debian chose to make room for systemd which broke the Unix compatibility. This decision created a precedent that Unix compatibility was no longer important. Devuan is distro that maintains the init daemon and tooling Unix compatibility promise and freedom as their philosophy titled Init Freedom. You got me to do the research.

From the homepage:

> Devuan GNU+Linux is a fork of Debian without systemd that allows users to reclaim control over their system by avoiding unnecessary entanglements and ensuring Init Freedom.

From the Init Freedom page:

> Init Freedom is about restoring a sane approach to PID1 that respects portability, diversity and freedom of choice.

> Other Free Unices Without systemd

> One of the critical arguments against systemd is the lack of portability to other Unices and the possibility that Linux-based systems using systemd would detach from the UNIX world. OpenBSD, FreeBSD and other BSD OSes are de facto incompatible with systemd or rather, systemd is incompatible with Unices not running Linux.

Linux on the desktop isn't helped when people post truly delusional things like calling this 'modern.' Makes it look like people don't know what they don't know.
When you upgrade the cpu on a framework laptop, you upgrade the board as well. So Framework owners can upgrade to a 2018 i5 or an AMD or even an ARM cpu if Framework offers it.
> I have paid for Backblaze for 4 years, after signing up for two 2 year subscriptions a few years apart.

Why are you signing up for a two-year plan twice if you can't get it to work? They offer a free trial, so it's not like they're forcing you to pay before figuring out if it works.

Would it be concerning to democracy that we don't want the president of a large media conglomerate to the POTUS? No - the concentration of power itself is far too leveragable in an elected position. I say it isn't concerning in either case.

Owner/administrator choice is the sensible "default" option just by the very design (people who administer websited can administer websites by definition), and as there is no fixed website limit so despite the wailing and gnashing of teeth from reactionaries calling for a revival of the long dead fairness doctrine there is no rationale for it.
I understand your point of view, but I'm not aware of any society in which housing is not considered an investment; unless we're talking about utopic scenarios or communist economies where the state owns all property, or ex-communist countries where the vast majority are home-owners and tenants/landlords are a minority.

Agree that for most home-owners, it'd be a mistake to regard their own home they live in as an investment. FWIW, I have no dog in this race, I'm neither a landlord nor a tenant (I -and my mortgage provider- own the home I'm living it).

Dumb question: My very poor understanding is that the EM images are created by objects reflecting the energy back to the sensor. Is the problem that the water's conductivity will spread the EM in every direction or otherwise cause it to behave unpredictably?

LLP, LLC, and SP don't necessarily mean it's not individual or small family business, either. For those numbers to be meaningful, you need to distinguish between small business investors and soulless corporate vampires. Using an LLC can be a prudent and wise move for a married couple or family team.

Seems like the net size of a corporation is an indicator of how little we as a society want it involved in our daily lives - the bigger they get, the more effectively they are exploiting a rent seeking niche, in this case literally.
