It's not about getting your money back. Consumers are lazy and usually don't care, which is why companies get away with so much bullshit - they just price in the amount of defects and returns instead of taking care to deliver a tested, high quality product.

Would even a single consumer claiming issues open up a company to severe fines, we'd see a lot less bullshit.
$1500 for a machine which is so underpowered it's hardly anything more than an expensive toy for programmers with too much money. I love the trackball and mechanical keyboard though. Shame it's far too overpriced and underpowered for any kind of daily driver usage.
But also many of the core features are still broken. The fx formula bar button still opens the 1990s non resizable window with a search function that doesn't do anything, and you have to go through a list of thousands of forumula in a tiny box. They never fixed the bug that corrupts xlsm files (I recommend people to never use xlsm for that reason). They also managed to break things, like it has become almost impossible to copy a chart or table from excel to powerpoint without the whole formating being lost (the biggest pain being red negative numbers).

Yeah, there has been minor improvements. Ditching the 65k row limit, waterfall charts, xlookup (though 20 years too late, people had index/match all over their spreadsheets from day 1), 64bit version of excel. The more recent version automatically spills formula returning arrays over multiple cells, useful for users who can't do array formulas.

But many new features I wouldn't touch with a stick. The BI feature that downloads whole table from a database in memory even if you only need one day and there are billions of rows. I always found tables pretty much useless. In term of UI, they dramatically increased the number of clicks to get to a button (try inserting many shapes in powerpoint or excel, or changing many chart/shape formats, things are deeply nested). If you look at the default formats (tables, charts) have been designed by people who never looked at a corporate presentation.

And there are udf I created that I don't understand why aren't part of the default feature set. A formula to deduplicate a list, or split a text based on delimiters, or to execute a sql query against a database and return an array (I know there are buttons for that, but a button requires manual work every time you need to refresh the data, vs a shift-F9 when it is formula based). And why is it still so hard to refresh a ppt presentation based on numbers coming from spreadsheets. It is one of the most common and basic use.
These are way better than the ones in the post imo

That is rather remarkable, because mice are very prone to cancer. Much more so than humans. I have heard longevity experts remarking that even interventions that could actually significantly raise lifespans of other species are going to run into the wall of enormous cancer-ness of mice, which reduces the overall effect.
Just in case you don't know: The energy to power your calculator did not come from the potato. It came from the metals you used in the potato. The metals are slowly oxidizing and that reaction (a kind of burning) produces the energy.

The same thing is happening here - it's not the algae producing energy, it's the metal anode and cathode.
I don't think memers would focus on bitcoin mining funds. The memers focus on cryptocurrencies themselves, not on boring corporate miners. So I don't see how memers would affect the mining stock except to the extent that they affect bitcoin itself. So I don't expect much volatility from memers directly on the miners.

OTOH, there is huge volatility in the miner stock price due to bitcoin price swings. I'm saying to counter that volatility risk by holding bitcoin.

This could never work.

First off, you can't offer social programs to the entire world's poor without going broke.

So you could just offer them to citizens (as per Singapore), but on top of that you need to kick everyone out who shouldn't be there otherwise you end up with a massive underclass and huge social problems.
One of the problems is that the bloodstream is good at delivering antibiotics everywhere, which encourages resistance and many of the side effects of antibiotics.

Sorry. I saw this a little late. Hope this reaches you. I just make use of normal files and backlinks. No fancy whizzbangs except for a script to run the tickler for me. I need to convert this into an Obsidian plugin at some point.

The folder structure is simple

root folder -> Inbox.md (everything goes there first. I have shortcuts on mobile to open inbox directly)

Sub folders for Projects, Tickler, Attachments, Next Actions, Tickler, Someday Maybe Lists, and References

Attachments is just the folder that Obsidian automatically attaches stuff into when I paste/drag'n'drop something in.

I have about 9 Next Action lists inside the Next Actions folder (broken down by type of work [personal, work communication, work tasks, self education, etc])

Every project gets its own file inside the project folder. This will have links to sub projects and will also have its own notes and updates about the project so that it becomes a one stop location to check on a project and its history. When I finish/halt a project I move it into the Completed or Discontinued sub folder in the Projects folder.

When I need a next action on a project, I open one of the next action lists and use and add a task in there with a backlink to the relevant project. This way when I am reviewing my projects I can use the backlinks panel to see what next actions I have pending.

References are additional things like mails/announcement I am writing up. I insert references to these inside the project document (I'll use ![[project X status update announcement]] to embed)

The tickler is exactly like it's described in the book. Each day and each month gets its own file. I came up with an alphabetical arrangement method so that it displays exactly as the book specifies it — days coming up, next month, the days of the month that are done, the months that are coming up, the months that have completed (in that order). Re arranging this requires a bit of precise naming of files which is why I have a script to do that for me. I run `tickle` when I turn on my computer and the tickled tasks go into my Inbox.md file and everything is arranged automatically.

When I need to pick a next action to work on, I have several workspaces I have saved (eg: Work tasks to choose from). I open the workspace, review a next action to work off of and get into it.

And that's all there is to it. It's a lot of words to describe a process that doesn't require any mental overhead to maintain. The only mental overhead is in following the process required by GTD and that's a given :D .

If the power market is fully 'open', then yes, it will happen.

All it takes is for a car scrap dealer to realise that for every EV battery he grabs out and hooks up to the grid he'll earn $200/year. Before long, every scrap dealer will be doing it to every car.

However, I suspect that small players will be barred from the electricity markets via mountains of bureaucracy and certification, so that might not happen.

Photons of different wavelength are absorbed and converted at different depth in silicon sensors. Blue photons mostly convert at the surface, while red go much deeper into the sensor. The pixel electronics of a regular cmos image sensor however will only collect the resulting electrons in a certain region at the surface. If an electron is generated somewhere else, it will recombine and be 'lost', not contributing to the signal.

Depending on the sensor, at 1000nm only <10% of the photons will result in electrons that are captured by the pixel electronics. The sensor does not give you any signal any more.

Why? Silicon has a band gap of 1.12eV - photons with lower energy will not interact. This corresponds to ~1100nm - you will need sensors with different materials
Who would be dumb enough to take this deal lmao. You’d have to be an astronomical moron. Yeah, I moved here in the hope of making it. Now I’m going to endanger myself and guarantee I’ll never make it. Hahaha. Only a top class idiot would do this.
I have a deep and abiding fondness for phage, but they're not quite as awesome as they seem at first glance. From the perspective of an infectious disease epidemiologist who has been super-interested in phage for my whole career (literally tried to get a job out of undergrad with a phage therapeutics startup):

1) There's no such thing as a "broad spectrum" phage. They're organism specific, and that means not only would you need to keep a phage library on hand, but you'd have to do a lot of diagnostic tests. That's going to be both expensive and tricky. There are treatment guidelines for things like sepsis right now that are basically un-doable with phage therapy because of the time it takes to tune a phage library.

2) Phages are living things. Not only is that a weird regulatory framework to be in for a drug, but it also means that you need to be able to keep phage alive. In contrast, antibiotics are inert.

3) Phage therapy is also relatively new in the West (after being abandoned for some very real, very serious safety concerns back in the day), which means there's just less of a R&D infrastructure behind it.

There have been people working on commercializing phage therapy since I was in undergrad (I'm now a tenured professor). The problem is it's hard, and antibiotics are so much better as a treatment that there's kind of a ceiling on the excitement that they can generate, especially when trying to treat at scale. These sorts of small molecules have a similar appeal to them.
We have bounded queues because consumers and producers can consume at different rates. An unbounded queue will have the producer fill up main memory and then you need to do load shedding which turned the whole unbounded story into a lie.
It's because Intel is behind in process nodes (transistor density) and chiplet technology.

Once Intel is matching AMD for density, Intel will be able to jam far more small cores into a multi chip architecture than AMD will with just "big" cores.

Big/Little is a very important step forward towards core density (and idle power consumption, switching off big cores under load is a huge saver in laptop power usage).
I highly doubt that. All of those used to be extremely common before arrow functions.

I wanted a no*-op script the other day:

script:
- true # oh no*

No* pun intended.

*Pun also intended.

(To the uninitiated: YAML automatically casts the bare string “true” into a boolean for you. Fairly reasonable. But it does the same with “yes” and, per the parent comment, “no” too. This is problematic if you have a list of ISO language codes including Norwegian.)
"What Andy giveth, Bill Taketh away."

Big little is fundamentally the correct architecture. It's not Intel's fault that the software guys making the Linux Kernel haven't fully supported heterogeneous yet.

In the long term, it'll be the optimal call for so many workloads. Thousands of server and laptop workloads care only about performance per watt, not peak single thread.

Obviously an acquisition is often profitable for someone or other, but for me to believe an acquisition to be a good thing in some broad sense requires convincing me that it’s worth the resulting additional concentration of power. I’m generally speaking against more concentration of power in almost every context, so it’s got quite a lot to prove
Nothing's stopping you from making a Transferable interface. Everything that implements it has to implement transfer(), and you can then make an extension function on Transferable instead of your implementation. Additionally, multiple dispatch in JVM languages (except Groovy because it implements multiple dispatch already) can just be done by having two layers of classes. Yes, it's a holdover from the JVM being heavily class based, but nothing preventing you from doing that. Hell, define both your classes, and put all your logic in a single file with extension functions. Kotlin is quite free form when it comes to where you should put your things, what it should be attached to, etc.

I guess that explains why GPUs are so cheap and plentiful.

Or perhaps they're mining another crypto currency.
None of us can. At most we can do some very virtualized logic interpretation, but we are all faulty, emotional-driven “machines”, and even behind the most logical people’s actions the reason is simply they felt that way.
This. We had some Onkyo speakers and an amplifier.

One of the speaker got broken and the amp was acting "weird" like sometimes not outputting any sound but turning it off and on was literally fixing, etc.

Context receivers are also being considered as a poor man's DI/insane man's DI, depending on how you see it. Probably both. After all, if you have a class that requires A, B and C to do its work, marking it as needing those three in context make it super easy to just always have to provide them.

Unfortunately (fortunately? Because I know the evil, disgusting things I would do if it was easier), right now you have to nest with(x) or x.apply { } blocks to have everything in scope. A with(a, b, c) { } syntax would be very welcome, but I don't think functions of type (A, B, C).() -> Unit are going to exist any time soon.

The question is not a question of optimization but readability. Can you honestly say you would let `while (1 + 3 * 5 < 10 + 8 - 5 * 1000)` stand in a code review for a simple infinite loop because "the compiler will optimize it anyway".
Jio and friends are (were?) subsidizing connectivity and trying to drive growth to make it up later/elsewhere like payments and services.

"long term constant exposure to opioids will literally begin cause the pain they purport to solve."

From peronal albeit limited experience, I don't doubt that opioids can cause pain they purport to relieve.

I used to take an OTC painkiller for headaches that was a combination of 500mg acetaminophen (aka paracetamol) and 10mg codeine and whilst it was somewhat effective the frequency of my headaches actually increased.

It eventually dawned on me that the painkiller and or the frequency of taking it was causing some rebound effect and that the likely culprit was the codeine - given that it was an opiate and thus potentially addictive.

I then switched to acetaminophen-only tablets and although less effective as a painkiller than the combination, the frequency of my headaches decreased quite dramatically.

I never exceeded the recommended daily dose nor did I take the tablets every day (as I've always been aware of acetaminophen's potential to cause life threatening liver damage on overdose), so my codeine intake would have been within acceptable limits (especially given the painkiller's OTC status).

That said, I abruptly switched to the non-codeine formulation without any noticeable withdrawal symptoms.

The fact that codeine could cause headache pain when taken at dose levels below that which would be considered potentially addictive has never been lost on me. I'm very surprised that the public hasn't been warned more widely about this issue.

It's so interesting how many people with between above average up to immense intellectual capacity can imagine so little else to do with their intellect than think about money.

I think shallow intellectual pursuits like money maxing for people who are already wealthy and with their needs well beyond met are possibly a reaction to realizing ones own inevitable death and cosmic smallness, diving deep into one of the most shallow aspects of life in order to cognitively distance oneself as much as possible from contemplations that may lead one to ponder existentially disturbing thoughts with no clear answers.

100%. The design is also just completely shit. There’s nothing wrong with it in terms of it being more “modern” and “minimal” it’s just designed by someone who isn’t at remotely good at graphic design and overseen by people who are similarly clueless.
