I keep asking about this since I see it repeatedly remarked on here. Please see my comment history. It doesn't appear to be true. My understanding is that it is about volume, as with almost everything display related.
This comes under "do things that don't scale". If you have 100 developers is this an efficient way to work? Absolutely not.

If you have <10 is it an efficient way to work? Yes, it can be. Replace the formal process of code reviews with an informal process of reviewing new commits. Encourage everyone to regularly read the code and not silo themselves away.
I think some of us (myself included) feel things more intensely.

This shares notions with simulation theory and other non-falsifiable hypotheses.

I take a practical approach here. We exist today. What will we make of it? Regarding these notions, my thought is since no one can be certain, what practical impact does that have? Typically the answer is "none whatsoever."
The recognition of the Absurd is the beginning of existential wisdom.
as someone who has subscribed to this belief for a very long time but have had difficulty explaining it and only recently seen it pop up amongst others (twice in a week now): we use "you" because there isn't language capable of describing it. You found yourself conscious, you don't remember anything before, won't remember anything after, your consciousness inhabits a vessel but is property-less, theoretically this consciousness is capable of "finding itself" in another vessel. In fact, it's guaranteed because you can't be conscious of not being conscious
The designer isn't the runtime. Custom controls work fine in the application; it's the click-and-drag builder in Visual Studio that doesn't work. I don't miss it.

Now, it's probably unlikely (considering a normal person is also not generally trying to be purposely seen), but not out of the realm of possibility.
few disjointed thoughts:

1) ditch the friends that aren't self aware ("I made a $1m on my house in one year") but not the ones that want to spend time with you and are just talking about their life

2) its relative, all relative, I'm sure they have friends that they're envious of, and i suspect if someone gave you $10m and gave all your friends $50m you might still feel the same way

3)separate the material things from the feelings your experiencing [1 below]

4) don't focus only on the money, would you want their spouse, health problems, family, work-stress etc?

5) find other ways to reciprocate with your friends without feeling embarrassed/that you can do cheaply, invite them to a beach picnic, or bbq in the park etc.

[1] when i was junior professional my peers all had fancy watched (either purchased or given to them) and i was envious / wanted to blend in - i was given some good advice, and instead of buying a watch to blend in I put the money into a discrete mutual fund, that i could redeem at at any time to buy the watch...after a few months of sticking with my casio (but knowing i could buy the watch)...i didn't really care about it any more and wasn't envious/self-conscious anymore...it was all in my head.
They are hardy enough to be handled, but will chip if scratched, and break if dropped.

I store my crystals in a sealed container, and they are fine after a month. People who have left them outside do not report dehydration, but the surface still turns white due to exposure to light.

Some crystals can be successfully sealed in resin to prevent dehydration. Preventing light from photodecomposing potassium ferrioxalate crystals would be very tricky. I do not know whether it is possible.
We do find traces of human habitation from much older, though, including dwellings and cultural artifacts. So traces didn't disappear - they're there, and the picture that they paint is of a very primitive society.

It would be very strange indeed if the only things that disappeared were the ones necessarily to demonstrate that society was actually highly developed, no?

It would also seem to be a pretty obvious fallacy (although I’m very happy to hear the counter argument). It assumes the “game” is not only infinite in length but infinitely open in terms of the space it explores: a million monkeys on a million typewriters may produce Shakespeare but they’ll never produce a bowl of ice cream.

They're specifically talking about the mobile part here.

But it's not hard to believe that it will outrun the M1 Max in multithreaded benchmarks, and likely even single-threaded benchmarks. Intel's latest desktop parts are already faster than an M1 Max by a not-insignificant amount, and this is just a lower-power version. Intel's Alder Lake desktop parts are already surprisingly power efficient (ignoring the heavily clocked i9-12900K flagship, which was designed to basically ignore power consumption)

The real wildcard is where the power consumption comes in. Intel has some slides showing it being competitive with or even surpassing the M1 Max. I know a lot a lot of people will scoff at such a claim, but I don't actually have a hard time believing it.

I think the M1 is still going to win when it comes to idle consumption, though. I'm going to guess that net battery life is still going to favor the M1 by a decent margin, at least for mixed workloads where the CPU is idle a lot.
Apart from what others already said (performance per watt) this PR fails to acknowledge that M1 also has a built-in Neural Engine cores for accelerating machine learning, which is going to become the main feature of many apps.

Indeed, M1 is unique in the respect that you get CPU, GPU and ML cores in a single chip, with incredible performance and minimal power utilization.

The Fostex Four track tape recorder was my discovery. My brother and I wore it out. Mom got us a software DAW shortly after.

Fast forward several years, brother ends up at The Village recording studio in LA, works directly with Steven Stills. Not as cool, but I performed for an opener for Head East around the same time.
Good times.
Yjs: Shared State over WebSockets
I'm pretty sure it's oxygen. The same thing happens with solarized (sun-bleached) cyanotypes, according to the Cyanomicon, except that there the colors are white and blue rather than yellow and green. I think Chase is right that with oxalate this requires excess oxalic acid, so you can't repeat it indefinitely, while the ferricyanide/ferrocyanide redox cycle is reversible.
Depending on the workload: does it need to?

Most people I've seen use laptops near chargers, or at least within 2 hours of the nearest charging opportunity. Sometimes people travel and need more, but I don't think it's that common to need eight hours of charge at maximum performance.

Don't get me wrong, the M1 is an engineering marvel and as Apple's competitors move to a similar node size I hope they too will get these power usage benefits some way or another, but I don't think the average consumer needs all the features the M1 offers.

If Intel can come up with a laptop that's faster than the M1 at two thirds the price with the only downside being that you only get four hours of battery out of it with all cores clocked to their limit, then I don't see why most people who need the horsepower would pay extra for the M1, especially with its restrictions on what operating systems it can run comfortably. The impressive efficiency of the M1 simply isn't that pressing a matter for most people.

I hope Intel is right, and I hope they beat Apple. We've seen AMD overtake Intel and then saw their innovations slow to a crawl while they were ahead. Apple might end up doing the very same if there is no competition in this space. If Intel, AMD or Qualcom produce a chip even better than the M1, we can all only stand to gain from this.
It should be noted that the historicity of the conquest of Canaan is itself highly suspect.

The time has come again to recommend Asimov's "The Last Question" in case you haven't read it.
It is not the main question. Why? Because not all wealth is done by resource-intensive business. Developed countries rely a lot on services not only primary and secondary sector.

Also, by having more offer available, prices are dropped. That benefits everyone, making them automatically wealthier, since now services are at the reach of more people at a lower price.

I do not see the problem. At least, not so far.

Indiscriminate redistribution by force has a long history of failure and it makes places poorer, not wealthier.
Same - except i went with Makitas, since I own a number of their other tools. Decent mower for my small lawn. The unexpected bonus was when breaking down the price, it's like I paid $400 for the 4 large 18v 6a batteries and charging station, and got the mower for free. Batteries work great with other tools.

> archeological record or even fossil record

The Earth may (I think it likely) have been tectonically active for long enough to destroy any such traces of an advanced civilization arising during its first couple eons (oldest macro-fossil: 800m years; Earth: 4.5b years).

Better disproof is perhaps the absence of evidence in the geologic/atmospheric record. One imagines that a geologist in the deep future could detect a long-forgotten humanity via the record's abrupt spike in CO2 output, just as present geologists know of the Great Oxidation Event.

This is an established business play for VC backed startups.

A SAAS is always two things, the product, and sales. You absolutely must have sales, because no matter how good the product is, you don't have a business if nobody buys it. So the product is optional.

The pitch is "We're the completely automated solution for X", but internally everything is done by hand. You then try to find some customers. If you don't get product-market fit, you shut down without having to spend anything on engineering. But if you do get product-market fit, great! Time to build out the actual automation. During the gap, it doesn't matter how bad your unit economics are, you can just use infinite VC money to hire thousands of people while promising the board you'll eventually lay them all off. You will experience hypergrowth during this period because you can underbid everyone else thanks to your endless spigot of money.

It's not "totally fine." We're all tired of the masks, sure. I just don't think they're actively harmful.

Agreed, but that's not a reasonable way to distribute any piece of software to an audience that's not a bunch of hardcore hackers. The easiest way for "old" Intel Macs is to install OpenCore which can inject kexts before the kernel even gets execution, but for M1 I'm completely lost.

> Heck, even doors: the moment you have to put signs that say "push" and "pull" on a door you know it's a terrible design.

As we get more and more doors whose design directly contradicts the action required to open the door, at some point the most robust design needs to include the “push” or “pull” sign because people know that nothing else about the door’s design is a reliable indication of the required action.

Short term I used a splint and tried to cut down on the time I as using a keyboard or mouse. Outside work, no gaming and minimal computer time. I kept this up until the pain subsided.

In parallel, I switched to a trackball instead of a mouse. Other people I know went with a vertical mouse. I got a giant mouse pad for my desk with wrist supports for both my keyboard and trackball. This is also a good time to double check your whole setup chair, desk, monitors making sure you have good posture
How is it possible to provide evidence for something that, by definition, lies outside the empirically observable universe? Militant atheism is just as comical as all-knowing theism when faced with the sheer incomprehensibility of existence. The reality is we have no idea what existence entails, and any claims that one does are meant to assuage one's ego more than anything else.
No one expects getting old how you can just wake up to a new, weird, worse life on any given day, and not switch back.

You can't make transit great if cars are also great, because the two are mutually exclusive.

For cars to be good you need lots of space for parking lots and highways. Otherwise, the car is getting you nowhere fast, and there won't be anywhere to park it when you get there. But that also means those parking lots and highways need space. In all but the densest urban metros, that space is two-dimensional, which means all that car infrastructure is spreading out all the buildings.

Transit needs the exact opposite to happen: buildings need to be close-together so that a single line can aggregate more demand, and riders have to walk less when they arrive at their destinations. This is actually how pretty much all cities used to be built, because cars didn't exist yet, so you had to give that space to pedestrian infrastructure. Not coincidentally, those are also the cities with the best transit, and the absolute worst to drive in. You can't have both cars and people sharing the same space.

That's to take all of the guard rails off. You can participate in earlier stage fundraising without being accredited via Regulation A+ and CF.

The truth is, Dropbox would never have taken your money in the first place unless you brought something to the table. There's real adverse selection risk in allowing anyone to participate.

Why would any startup founder take your cash for equity if you don't provide any value, when they could just stroll down Sand Hill Road with a burlap sack and be done with it? That would leave them with a network, connections, advisors, folks who have built successful businesses before and a portfolio of other companies they can leverage.

The only ones willing to take dumb money in small quantities from nobodies will have been kicked out of every office on Sand Hill.

Not even fairly prominent angel investors make the cut for in-demand seed or pre-seed investments. By the time you get to a series B or higher, you may as well just grab a position in a mutual fund that participates.

> It's pretty not-great when an average person (that is x<$200k/yr) hears about a dropbox or coinbase IPO but is excluded because they're not rich.

By the time a company gets to an IPO, you're not going to see material returns by participating in the IPO itself. You're just not. You may or may not get some initial small spike, but it's as likely to go down. Just look at $COIN. It opened at $381 and is currently sitting at $248. That's not where the value is in being an accredited investor. That's just a coin toss.

On the other hand there's huge returns to be made in the stock market from companies that publish financials. Check out $TQQQ or zoom out on $SQ or $TSLA.

> One might make the argument that that's just gambling, to which I would point out that accreditation is not required for casinos or the lottery.

Casinos and lotteries publish odds. Public companies publish financials. Private companies needn't do any of that.

I'm not "rich", but for some perspective: both of my parents are immigrants. Dad never climbed the career ladder, nor learned much about finances in the US. He likely makes the same amount of money as he did 30 years ago when adjusted for inflation. Mom went to night school for nursing while I was a kid, and makes decent money for this area. After doing a 4-year CS program, and working for a couple years, I crossed the six-figure mark and now make a decent salary for an average HN reader. I make more than twice of my father's salary, and much more than my mother's.

I know I worked hard, but I know I didn't work as hard as my father or mother. If anything, I was reasonably intelligent and was lucky because I was internet savvy and knew enough to pick a career that was in demand. What I'm saying here is to dispel this weird idea that wealth is directly correlated with hard work or skill.

I follow an artist and game developer from Brazil. He routinely blogs about his life, and live in a small (but nice) apartment. It's clear that I'm able to afford a much higher standard of living than he, but in the end, it's me who's envious of him for his skill in artistry and game development, meanwhile I'm here writing fucking CRUD apps for some tech startup that's injected with VC money and is able to pay their employees inflated salaries so they can live in Valley homes.

What I'm getting at is what's probably no surprise to you -- it's easy to be envious of wealth and material possessions, but it's also easy to mistake wealth or self-worth.

I'm kinda writing this in a rush, so my advice to you would be to read the Stoics, perhaps A Guide to the Good Life by Irvine, and for some lighter reading, try Fumio Sasaki's book on Japanese Minimalism.
