‘Academia faces a crisis of credibility; following the replication crisis and studies which suggest that datasets have multiple interpretations, we have fewer reasons to trust academic output. People have long identified solutions, such as the preregistration of hypotheses and publication of null hypotheses. Yet intriguingly, the institutional profile of academia may be the biggest barrier to reform. Within academia, there are multiple entrenched interests, precluding solutions to many issues.’
Is there an example of a thriving online community that has absolutely no censorship? One gets the sense that once a platform commits publicly to never censor, it's overrun by people with extreme opinions, and the platform loses more reasonable people, who actually are the largest majority.

I believe that's what the GP means, yes. With a future superheavy launch vehicle, however, a tandem mission could be possible, with separate Neptune and Uranus probes being inserted into different trajectories by the same LV/upper stage.

I love my current one to bits (X1c 7th gen) - almost weightless, sturdy, excellent battery life, excellent connectivity, wonderful keyboard.

Oh, and the 1080 screen, which isn't great, but did help improve battery life significantly over the other offerings. I get a full work day out of mine without a charge, which is most useful whenever I'm in the field.

This doesn't describe crypto over the past decade. It's become more pervasive, more corrupt, more destructive (from environmental impact to its role in facilitating hacking) and, with NFTs, more slot machinesque.
Very difficult. Has been since mid 2010s.

Crypto offers nothing but highly volatile securities trading. That can never accomplish any of the positive goals listed in the article. Simple realistic analysis is all that is necessary to reject crypto as currently offered as an agent of positive change.

But I guess my question is this: we're going to spend $XB to send a probe to a distant moon. Once it lands, we get to ask exactly two questions. Question one is confirm/deny organic life (the microscope). Why is question two's ability to provide a meaningful answer so contingent upon a very specific outcome of question one?

Is this a combo of a) the cost of the second question (i.e. the weight and size of sending the DNA sequencer) is fairly small, b) we're confident enough about question one that putting resources toward question two is worth the opportunity cost of asking a different question, or c) we have no other questions that we can reasonably ask for the same amount of resources?

That's a pretty American, libertarian take. As somebody who grew up in Western Europe, I'm not disillusioned by "the state" per se, and I think that the facts rather support that privatisation doesn't always make things better (e.g. railways). None of us may be "right" (it always depends on your experiences), but it's worth considering that "using the state to fix society" isn't a completely ridiculous take for everyone.

Laptops with greater than 1080p screens just take up battery for no discernable benefit at those screen sizes.
Definitely works for games. AAA games are generally buggy messes upon release. Crackers dont bother cracking something that takes time and effort (eg. Denuvo) until the game has had the bugs patched (otherwise they would need to re-crack the updated versions each time) I would not be at all surprised if the bugs are left in on purpose to ensure the game remains uncracked for a certain period of time. The kind of company who would use DRM and Denuvo would have zero qualms about doing it imo.
I think having buggy games also pushed people toward online DRM systems like Steam that autoatically download updates every time you run the game, rather than something like Itch.io or gog where you just download the game and play it like a sane person.

I lead engineering at a VC firm, and while we do sometimes help in diligence, it’s a tiny portion of our time, <1%.

Your second paragraph is spot on, and I hinted at a similar idea in a sibling to your comment. Especially at series A and later, customers are an existence proof for the product not being vaporware.

So when we are involved in diligence, it’s usually near the end, and we’re getting to know the engineering leaders to see if we can help them speedrun a few iterations by sharing best practices or introducing them to other leaders in the portfolio who have been there and done that recently.
I recommend System76 laptops. The Serval WS has full desktop class hardware in a laptop chassis (so battery life is a distant second -- my Serval WS lasts for about 40-90 minutes on battery depending on workload). Their other product offerings are pretty good too.

And, best of all, they provide first-class Linux support and provide their own Ubuntu-derived distribution, Pop!_OS.

No, man. Kids are learning colors and how to spell basic words and basic math and how to interact with each other. Some kids don't have parents, some kids only have grandparents or only aunts and uncles, some kids only have a single parent, some kids have step parents, some kids swap between divorced parents, some kids are adopted and some kids have parents who abandoned them because of drug use, or are dead or in prison. You wanna broach the subject of same sex parents, you gotta cover all that shit and you've opened a can of worms way bigger than you thought. Teachers shouldn't bring that shit up. Allow them a little time in their lives to be innocent and not worry about that shit. Spread your politics to adults, leave the kids alone.
I like the idea of keeping docs of your accomplishments and things you didn’t like up to date.

I’m not so sure about the working style document. That said some companies use personality profiling of teams and knowing someone’s personality will help you in your interactions with them. I think there’s just a more natural way to do this than presenting them with a document.

For the weekend post it, could this be accomplished by the ranking in the first spreadsheet used?
As a longtime user of System76 servers, desktops, and laptops, I can recommend them.

* The hardware has always been "more than good enough." I mean, you can always nitpick about some or other detail, but the machines work, they work well out-of-the-box with Linux, and they last a long time. We still have eight-year-old machines that are humming along.

* Support has always been outstanding at everything from answering questions to sending replacement parts with detailed how-to instructions. On one occasion we sent them an older machine for fixing and shipping back, and they handled it flawlessly.

* Most importantly, I've always felt that everyone we've interacted with at System76 actually cares about me as a customer. They're not a charitable organization, so they need to make money, but I've always gotten the sense that doing right by customers is a higher priority.
That's predatory. It's also up to GitHub to actually check the DMCAs they get and not juts blindly follow through with them, as they seem to do.

I agree, but there are all kinds of scenarios where you might need to simply answer a question - “is this an email address, and does it look valid?”.

I wouldn't be surprised if more people are starting to rotate between streaming services. All of my favorite content that used to be on Netflix is now split between several services (Netflix, Hulu, Peacock, Disney+). At one point I paid for all of them, but I found myself only having the time to use 1-2 per month. Some I wouldn't touch for months but was still paying for.

Now I pay for 2 services/month, watch something new, and then the next month rotate my subs to something else.

Keeps the content fresh and price down.

I believe it’s naïve to expect that it will remain outside of government control. That it won’t get slammed with the same laws and regulations applied to fiat currencies.

Governments live on money. As alternatives gain traction, the governments take notice and start regulating. There’s a fair bit of historical precedence around this.
