One of the best ways to talk to customers, even if you think you're an expert, is to assume you know nothing and ask dumb questions. It ensures you don't make a mistake assuming something false and it gives your customer the opportunity to provide the most unbiased and broadest answer.

So point being, don't let your lack of experience scare you from talking to customers. In a lot of ways, it a strength for you.

And do a Google search for how to conduct a non-biased customer interview. It's very easy to accidentally ask leading questions and taint the feedback you receive.

I've often wondered how much overlap there is on people who live in an HOA and people who are opposed to government regulation. I realize government regulation isn't quite the same as HOA regulations, but it's amusing to me how extreme some HOAs are (grass a certain length, no service vehicles, etc) and how the people that live in them are often politically conservative.

The problem could be the way you used the directory. I don't know Sync specifically, but DEVONtech don't recommend storing the databases in directories which will be synced. Rather you are supposed to set up the system to use whatever sync API is available, which presumably makes sure files are internally self-consistent before syncing. It's a while since I set it up, but that's how I did it with WebDAV to my NextCloud server.
This makes sense, I have experience with and lots of appreciation for SQLite. It's exempliry across many areas of software engineering. Elegant simplicity, not bloated, high performance, broad API library support, amazing 3rd party ecosystem (rqlite [1], litestream [2]). It's wildly nice!

With that said, I've found that I'm a bit hesitant to use SQLite for anything interactive for one silly reason:

It's so hard to query precise date ranges in an ergonomic way interactively. There is no timestamp type, and the general advice I've seen is to use Unix Epoch offsets. This works fine except for exploring.

I keep finding myself desiring porting my SQLite's to PostgreSQL for only the comparatively easy ranged data exploration.

What about Vulkan? They’d need to implement the same crummy APIs and semantics (that is a bunch of kernel and similar work) for an API that NVIDIA and AMD were both uninterested in.

And again, anyone could have made a Vulkan emulation layer on metal.

One time I went to buy a car with a guaranteed loan in hand from my bank. The dealer made us wait for over two hours as they tried to find a better deal that they could do, and then finally failed and grudgingly sold us the car with our financing. That was Nissan (my car).

The next time we went to buy a car with a loan in hand from our bank, it was for my wife. We showed the guy the loan we had, he took one glance at it, and said he couldn't do anything better. He didn't waste any of our time. That was Lexus.

Suffice it to say that I'm willing to pay a higher price for a better quality vehicle with better quality service. I really don't want to buy from anyone else.
> Why not wear it?

Car drivers often get head and brain injuries if they are involved in a collision with another car or with a tree/building. Do you wear a helmet when you drive? The helmet doesn't add almost any inconvenience, is reasonably cheap and light, as you say.

Unless you're on a racetrack or driving a test vehicle, probably not.

> As far as I understand the regulation that exists was added to prevent disasters of the kind that occurred previously.

What "disasters" are these that you speak of? In the US, which is the country with the most dysfunctional regulatory requirements on nuclear power, there have been no incidents with commercial nuclear reactors that have caused harm to the general public. The worst US incident, Three Mile Island, caused harm to a fair number of plant workers, but no members of the general public were harmed.

In comparison to the harm done by fossil fuel energy sources, nuclear isn't even in the same ballpark. For example, orders of magnitude more coal miners have been killed or severely injured than nuclear plant workers, even if we normalize by units of energy generated. Plus, if we take into account things like air pollution and its contribution to respiratory illness, there has been significant harm done to the general public by fossil fuels. Yet fossil fuels are regulated much less strictly than nuclear.

> You seem to be arguing some of the added regulations were unnecessary for safety?

I am saying that if we were really concerned about safety, we would have looked objectively at the harms caused by each energy source per unit of energy generated, and regulated them accordingly. That would have meant we would have shifted a large fraction of our base load power generation to nuclear energy decades ago, since per unit of energy generated it causes much less harm than fossil fuels. And when an incident like Three Mile Island happened, instead of panicking and acting like it was a world-shaking disaster, we would have looked objectively at what flaws in the plant design and operation the incident exposed, and fixed them, and gone on with nuclear power.

DEVONthink does have an OCR add-on based on ABBYY Finereader. I think is was about $20.
It's not just about economic incentives. There are geopolitical incentives to not be completely reliant on the few countries that currently extract the raw materials for batteries. If we are to shift away from fossil fuels, we will be more and more dependent on these things.

Love it! It reminds me of a utility on my old Amiga 1000 that allowed you to view the entire contents of RAM as a large scrollable bitmap.

If you ran a game such as Marble Madness, rebooted the machine, then started the viewer program, very frequently you'd find corrupted remnants of the game assets such as sprites and backdrops as you scrolled.

I was young and absolutely amazed by it. Unfortunately I can't remember the name, only that it came on a disk with 'The Alliance Anti-Virus Collection' hand-written on the label. It had many other cool utilities, some which hijacked the "Insert Workbench" screen to play chiptunes and display scrolling text

Bitter-sweet memories.
Happily, VR should work in the opposite direction to books, TV and the internet.

In addition to some games involving intense cardio work, it also forces the brain to constantly judge distances and using your arms and hands to interact with visual stimuli keeps you engaged while transferring attention between objects and concepts.

At least, that's the thinking. I don't have a source to prove any of that.

I’d argue that the web is almost always janky, no matter how fast or slow.
The problem I’ve always encountered is that layers of abstraction are often prematurely introduced and cost immensely because the programmer believes certain things won’t change.

Most abstractions are premature and the world always changes against initial assumptions. So the answer to “what if it changes?” is it most certainly will and in a way inconsistent with your cute abstraction.
Every time this is posted there’s people arguing that this is all caused be social issues. But if you look at the charts it’s pretty highly correlated with the timing of the Nixon shocks, plus the discontinuations (or discontinuation in the derivative) are pretty immediate. My point being something social like the death of the single income two parent family unit didn’t just suddenly happen one day. Hundreds of millions of women weren’t hired on the same day. The gold standard went from there to gone in effectively a day.

> Regulatory requirements for all large scale power generation have to deal with very similar regulatory requirements

As far as the general regulatory requirements for large scale power generation, that may be true. But there are additional requirements that nuclear has to meet that no other power source does. One is the completely irrational requirement for a waste disposal plan that has to last ten thousand years or more--instead of just reprocessing the waste, which is what every other country that uses nuclear energy does. That requirement alone basically killed nuclear power in the US for several decades.
BEVs are about 80% efficient in Wall-to-Wheel measures. What the Well-to-Wheel measure is depends on the efficiency of the power generation and losses in distribution. If it’s powered by natural gas, that generation itself is only around 40% efficient.

THere was also PLEAC.

And the other issue is the more than one way thing, you need "flavors" of different languages.

And once you get past that, what is really needed is a standard reference implementation of a website, IO pipelines, network code, ssh libs, and tons of other things. Rosetta has a lot of crappy algorithms and paper-thin examples.

It's a good idea, but I think Stack Overflow could have implemented something far better, at least for the main languages they had armies of karma seekers for.

> I think it's fair to say that a share price's value is largely based on speculation

I agree that this is the case in the short run. But I do not believe this is the case in the long run. And there are great investors out there who hold this view.

> Yield can be sourced from trading/borrowing fees or in the event of liquidation the collateral that these traders provide. Yield can also be generated by performing some functions on a blockchain like validating transactions. Yield can also come from the "pre-mine" in instances where the coinmaker is offering yield farming.

You may be right. The only issue is that when someone offers you a guaranteed 12% or guaranteed 20% annual return on your money in a near 0% interest environment then it seems too good to be true. And it was too good to be true in the case of that recently collapsed 'luna' coin which wiped out 45 billion of investor money.
But if you see it is raining and you are getting wet (you see the celebrity through the tv and know they can't hear you back), it is likely a mistake to think it isn't raining because you are traveling in the Sahara.
> parents were asked about long term overall life satisfaction of course

Not in most of the studies I've seen. Here's one that does:

https://sci-hub.hkvisa.net/10.1080/17439760.2013.830764

> for parents, the more time they spent taking care of children, the more meaningful their lives were. (Time spent taking care of children had no relation to happiness and if anything trended toward reducing happiness.)

> These findings illuminate the so-called ‘parenthood paradox,’ which is that most people want to be happy and want to become parents, but those two goals are in conflict insofar as becoming a parent often reduces happiness (e.g. Twenge, Campbell, & Foster, 2003; cf. Nelson et al., in press). Baumeister (1991) proposed that the parenthood paradox can be resolved by proposing that people seek not just happiness but also meaning, and so, they become parents because the gains in meaningfulness offset any losses in happiness. The present findings are consistent with that conclusion

Over half of the article is a polemic preamble against various theories, that usually means they don’t have a good case (not sure in this instance).

Brilliant, I've never seen kerning (ker-ning) spelt in a way that illustrates it's importance!
Every virtue is easy to argue for in isolation. All else being equal, who wouldn't prefer their code to be easy to read? Or easy to extend, performant, simple, small, secure, packed with features, well tested, and so on.

The trick is that writing code thats easy to understand often takes more time. Making code performant will often make it harder to read, and harder to change. Adding lots of features will make your code harder to change.

Its easy to point at the virtues of good code. And its easy to pick out some personal favorites. But the difference between an intermediate and expert programmer is knowing how (and when) to trade those values off against each other. When you're prototyping, write messy code that you can change easily. When you're writing a web browser, agility doesn't matter as much as security and performance. If lives depend on your code (eg in medical, rocketry, etc) then testing becomes a lot more important. Working with a lot of junior engineers? Try and write code they can understand and maintain more easily. And so on.

Its a fine thing to have a personal style when programming. But the mark of excellence is whether you can adapt your style to suit the actual problem you're trying to solve.

> "an excess of jobs and money in that place"

Nope. For one thing, there's the largest generation of the 20th century at peak retirement, cashing out of family houses that have gained huge amounts of value, and looking to move to amenity-rich locations.

For another thing, the investment industry, short of other options, has started buying houses to rent them (short or long term), squeezing supply and driving up prices in many markets.

For another thing, short term rentals (AirBnb, VRBO etc.) have had profound impacts on the availability of property in heavily visited areas (in fact, it's not so much absolute visitation rates, but vists-per-resident that characterizes this).

Other factors too. That doesn't mean the market can't crash, but it will be something very different from what happened in 2008.
For me, the planned "Feather Wiki Nest" tool is the most interesting, as an internet-accessible, editable, organised set of notes is a killer-app.

I currently use Noteself (tiddlywiki + local / remote database saving function) for this, and it's an excellent solution that I'd be loathe to migrate away from. The main issue is having to setup and host a CouchDB instance, but once it works it works well. If 'Feather Wiki Nest' has a lower barrier to entry than Noteself, then I could see it being very popular.

Whilst I use Noteself for personal notes and life organisation, I may use Featherwiki as a blog platform, just to keep a thicker separation between the two (I've previously considered using Noteself for blog content to then publish as static HTML).

They definitely care about second-order effects. If for example they raise the rates enough that debt servicing starts to become a real issue and this leads to higher taxes and spending cuts, then that is an extra economic headwind which they must consider.

They don’t care about the debt figure per se but they do care about the economic implications of that debt, and how other entities are likely to react to it.
Not heat pumps? No idea what you're talking about. Evaporative cooling, passive cooling, cooling by ventilation, plants. You mean these?

Well at least these AC units in cars and the humming things mounted in millions to outside walls of buldings are all heat pumps. Don't know what other AC you mean then.

As to thermodynamics, apart from using the term, would you care to explain how it supposedly explains your claim?

Sure, a chipset is the correct place to do that, but I'm worried about the bandwidth it can offer in this specific setup.

The block diagrams show (for useful devices):

CPU / APU:
* RAM ???
* 5.0 x8 + 5.0 x8 GPU(s?)
* 5.0 x4 NVMe
* 4.0 x4 2x USB4 #1
* 4.0 x4 for PROM21
* DP / HDMI #1
* 2x USB 3.2 10Gbit
* 3x USB 2.0 (why?)
* SPI / GPIO HDAudio #1

#1 expected ASM4242 mux with 2x DP for APUs -- It'd be nice if these pins could export additional PCIe lanes for non-APU systems.

That 4.0 x 4 set of lanes is expected to service up to...

* 4.0 x4 (bridged daisy)
* 4.0 x4 NVMe
* 4x SATA 6Gbit/sec
* USB 3.2 20Gbit
* 4x USB 3.2 10Gbit
* 4x USB 2.0

+

* 4.0 x4 (daisy to cards)
* 4.0 x4 NVMe
* 3.0 x1 2.5Gbit Ether
* 3.0 x1 + 2.0 USB WiFi
* 2x SATA 6Gbit
* USB 3.2 20Gbit
* 4x USB 3.2 10Gbit
* 4x USB 2.0

__ideally__ they'd have done something more like x4 PCIe 5.0 for the secondary NVMe drives and downstream system ports to share, along with an x2 PCIe 5.0 link utilized for the other existing ports on the two chips.
