I know many people who use them. The only one that burned out did so after about 10 years of 3x per day use.

Also, the optional stainless container is a lot easier to clean than the plastic one that comes with it.

> I don't see what the big deal is?

The big deal is that it's slanderous.

Oracle isn't making an attestation about performance that the benchmark addresses, the benchmark aims to make statements about Oracle for some other reason, and that's important: Rights to free-speech generally end when they cause harm, and bearing full costs in the defense of false benchmarks is certainly harm.

Look at it this way: The clause aims to prevent purchases (entering into agreement with Oracle) under false pretenses. Oracle sells software to solve business problems, not you-need-a-paper-that-makes-Oracle-look-bad problems, and I think vendors are wise to protect themselves from that.

On the other hand, if you actually bought Oracle to solve a problem, and it didn't do that, you're still free to make those benchmarks and sue the shit out of Oracle with them, and this agreement can't by itself prevent the benchmarks from reaching the public record at that point.

> Is this only limited to marketing claims where you post it on your company's website?

If your company makes X and your company website contains a benchmark saying Oracle is slower than X, you're not just making a statement that you observed Oracle was slower than X, you're also making an attestation that the benchmark is a fair representation of both Oracle and X. And judge and jury are going to be wondering if it's as fair as you say, or if it's unfair as Oracle says.

Now, if you're a university and you don't make X, you might be able to argue that even if it's unfair, it was done in good-faith, and judge and jury may believe that, but Oracle will ask, if you truly believed X was fair, why didn't you get our feedback before publishing? and you'd better have a good answer to that.

On the other hand, if you choose to be anonymous, you may be able to avoid the judge and jury, but the community has to wonder who you are, whether you are motivated by a relationship to a company or product that competes with Oracle, or an impatient researcher who can't meet the standard of professional publishing. The community will wonder, but they have lots of other things to wonder about too, so they probably will not wonder for very long. So what's the point? Techdudes already know what they think of Oracle, and nobody who writes code talking or Oracle thinks that Oracle was chosen for its benchmarks, so who is this anonymous benchmark for?
There is a great book about this called "Laughing, I Shall Die" by Dr. Shippey [0].

The blub on Amazon says:

Laughing Shall I Die explores the Viking fascination with scenes of heroic death. The literature of the Vikings is dominated by famous last stands, famous last words, death songs, and defiant gestures, all presented with grim humor. Much of this mindset is markedly alien to modern sentiment, and academics have accordingly shunned it. And yet, it is this same worldview that has always powered the popular public image of the Vikings—with their berserkers, valkyries, and cults of Valhalla and Ragnarok—and has also been surprisingly corroborated by archaeological discoveries such as the Ridgeway massacre site in Dorset.

Was it this mindset that powered the sudden eruption of the Vikings onto the European scene? Was it a belief in heroic death that made them so lastingly successful against so many bellicose opponents? Weighing the evidence of sagas and poems against the accounts of the Vikings’ victims, Tom Shippey considers these questions as he plumbs the complexities of Viking psychology. Along the way, he recounts many of the great bravura scenes of Old Norse literature, including the Fall of the House of the Skjoldungs, the clash between the two great longships Ironbeard and Long Serpent, and the death of Thormod the skald. One of the most exciting books on Vikings for a generation, Laughing Shall I Die presents Vikings for what they were: not peaceful explorers and traders, but warriors, marauders, and storytellers.

I see. I was assuming it would be a balanced diet, at least.

In that case, I'm having difficulty getting worked up over rice and beans (a tiny percentage of my grocery bill) having a small markup on average in the US.
There is a surprisingly vibrant community of people who evidently just write a ton about their imaginary worlds, from conlangers to writers to game designers. This type of tool gears towards that niche as a tracking and publishing tool.

When I say American meat sucks, I am not referring to what some random internet blog says, I am referring to my personal experience living outside the US. You don't need to listen to some obscure podcast to realize the difference, you can just taste your food.
If your assumption is that people are always buying brand new Threadrippers or Mac M1s every couple years, then we're living in different worlds.

Musicians, especially, are much slower to upgrade hardware and software than other users because of the risk that something breaks during the upgrade--there are just so many different pieces of software that can break. A lot of musicians with Macs stayed on Mojave for a few years after it became obsolete just so they could run 32-bit programs, even though the writing has been on the wall for 32-bit programs since the very beginning of the Mac on x86 era.

Hindsight is always 20/20. Is Superhuman comparable to Honey? From a tech perspective, maybe??? I.e. could a talented solo dev replicate 80% of Superhuman and then publish it via the chrome app store. Yeah. But from a product perspective? Absolutely not. Honey has a vastly wider market than Superhuman, and almost anyone can use Honey and get something out of it. We can sell Honey as a 'money-saver', in contrast to Superhuman which markets itself as a 'time-saver' (albeit, for an eye-watering subscription). I've seen many people step over dollars to chase pennies, and Honey taps into that behavior, offering a much stronger value proposition than Superhuman (so much so that the two are basically incomparable).

This product is very niche. From my own experience, performing a single mildly unorthodox keyboard shortcut in front of an average Joe sort of freaks them out. Getting regular people onboard with something like this would be a total nightmare. This alone probably filters down Superhuman's market dramatically (enough to make a VC-backed 100-employee effort seem absolutely ridiculous).

Regarding the merit of Superhuman's ability to actually save time is another conversation others have argued to death about. I'd be interested in what others have to say about this, but I don't think the discussion has been very productive so far.
"What does it mean to get high? In a sense, it isn’t so complicated, when we do drugs, our “elevation” rises."

Clearly, drugs aren't doing anything for this author's ability to discern intelligent thought from vapid, intellectual posturing.
I can't tell if you're joking or not, because the quality of fresh fruit, vegetables, meat and poultry at Australian supermarkets is incredibly mediocre (and even that's being generous).

I'd rank Australia near-bottom of the dozen or so countries I've lived in/visited when it comes to supermarket quality[0]. Homogenized, bland food pumped full of water, optimized for profitability, shelf-life and appearance rather than nutrition or flavour.

[0] to be fair, the USA is even worse.
> so if there was a change in the pitch of the road, it would immediately react as the sensors became occluded and then regained their field of view

I've used it on miles of interstate in the mountains, but that's never a problem because interstates don't change pitch that rapidly (by design).

You must be using it on a very different roads than I do. I only use it on large, US interstates.
The problem with that is you end up with people who are too poor to afford to replace their gas kitchen and too poor to afford this new tax. By applying it only to new builds, you eventually phase out gas without ever putting financial stress on anyone.

You can then speed it up later by paying for houses to be upgraded to electric.
I mean, if you put it that way (ie. a maximally benevolent interpretation of a DEI department), then it's hard to be against it, but that's not the type of conduct that causes people (like OP) to be pissed at DEI departments and for OP to want them to be gone. They're far more concerned about the negative effects that the DEI department does.
I mean any asset is vulnerable to being worth $0 at any moment. For example your previously valuable house could actually be worthless due to a structural defect or a previously valuable company could be worth nothing due to massive fraud.

Moreover total crypto market cap still high 12 figures so I fail to see how that proves your point?
What are the 3 ingredients? HGH, possibly metformin and what else? The article does not clearly state.
I think thats a strong possibility.
side remark wrt wild catch:

Take good care of parasites. The deep frying of stor bought fish is also a parasite treatment, so is cooking. Wild catch needs detailed knowledge for the specific species, if and how it needs inspection and if and how it can be eaten uncooked and unfrozen, ie completely raw.

Wild catch is not just in and by itself "good and healthy"

> Proof is in the pudding.

That's exactly what I said. The pudding was a crash. It proved that cryptocurrencies are speculative assets without intrinsic value and that they aren't a hedge against any other speculative assets or fiat currency (in contrast to, for example, gold).
> However, you have to learn to cook.

I cook the same meal almost everyday. I have precooked a pot of white rice (trying to use brown) that sits in the fridge. I start cooking a chicken quarter or two and then microwave some mixed frozen vegetables (corn, green beans, carrots). Then I put some of the rice on top of that, microwave again, then the chicken is done (add some seasoning) and eat with salt. I listen to a podcast while cooking.

Otherwise I eat junk food (BK/TB/McDs or ramen shop). I do have a binge eating problem (bored or way to fight brain dead). But I can also fast eg. eat a meal a day for weeks to drop 10s of lbs. It's not easy to keep it consistent. Also I am more productive if I don't eat the entire day (except caffeine/water), eating induces tiredness.
Why would it be a search engine's role to provide the entirety of every creators' livable wage? That would obviously be impossible for many reasons, and I don't see Yep making any claims about being a primary (or even significant) revenue source. Instead, they're proposing that the value of search comes from the end content, not the results page. The creator revenue stemming from that is inherently the appropriate amount.

Inciting the notion that they're individually responsible for the whole of content creators' income only encourages more ads or even nefarious behavior -- which is completely antithetical to your own company's philosophy, so it's not clear why you're so publicly holding a competitor to a different standard.
The store brands taste like a freaking dessert topping comparatively.

True!

...convinced into believing that everything needs to be cooked from scratch and that any meal that involves a kit or a flavor packet is inferior.

These kits and flavor packets also come from the store, and also contain unnecessary ingredients. Family members from other generations insist on using envelopes of powder for everything, and they eat more poorly as a result. They need the powder to make gravy, while we gen-Xers whip that up from fat, flour, and any flavorful liquid. Watch Alton Brown for ten minutes, and eat better for the rest of your life.
No I don’t. It’s served from a server. Take down the server, it’s not rocket science.
Google even lists it as a required skill for some of their roles:

I don't know if I'd use Google as a great example of sleazy vs non-sleazy...
Strongly strongly disagree.

The average produce, meat, cured meat, and seafood in the western EU is vastly superior to the average available in the USA.

Bread is especially disgusting in the US compared to EU.
Screen ghosting is something I wish I'd never heard of because now I look for it everywhere and when I find it I can't stop being bothered by it.
The time involved in living healthy is not in the time it actually takes to make a meal (which is trivial, and can easily take less time than the round-trip to a fast food outlet.)

The real time it takes is in the time you need to learn a bunch of skills that make that possible. In an ideal world you learnt those skills at your mother's knee, but we are now 3 generations into "fast food" so it's probable that was missed.

It takes time, and effort, to regain those basics. From something as trivial as boiling water, to using a knife, to "knowing" how long things cook for. Then experience as to what ingredients go together (tomatoes love Basil, chocolate doesn't like garlic).

A skilled person can make a lovely pasta dish in minutes, an unskilled person has literally no idea.

My mother learnt to cook with minimal information (recipe books and magazines), my children can get a master-class in anything on YouTube.

We live in an age where we have access to any knowledge we want, and yet seem to be incapable of doing anything for ourselves.
Technology connections did a video on this recently showing an electric kettle required about 100wh to heat a volume of water and his gas stove took over 300wh to heat the same volume. And it was even worse when he used the large burner.
> It’s not harder to do in software. It’s just hard to get the timing correct, regardless of whether you are using software or hardware.

I am disagreeing with this.
In Functional Safety engineering there is a phase called "Hazard and Risk" where the unwanted adverse events are identified (as best possible) and recorded with downstream traceability to ensure they are addressed.

Tools used are HAZOP/HAZID/CHAZOP/What If etc, tailored to the situation. Facilitating such an event is a specialised and acquired skill.

However, the process is usually waterfall, because if you are fully agile and don't really have any idea exactly what you are building before you start, you either need to do this Hazard and Risk as a refresh at every architectural or functional pivot, or more detailed definition of any kind (unlikely), or just wing it and hope...
Einstein published General Relativity when he was 35, and after that he did important work but nothing quite as world shaking as the period 1905-15.

So he may have been projecting his own disappointment into a general statement.
> You'll get from China factories what you order, and then verify the quality of, from Chinese factories.

Agreed. I mentioned that in my last point about IP, which you conveniently ignored.

Apple is an outlier. For every such company, there are thousands of others abroad and local to China that are making absolute trash that only serves to scam consumers and/or end up in landfills shortly after purchase.

I can't count how many Chinese-made things I've bought that ended up in the trash a few days/weeks/months after purchase. I also own a lot of poorly made Chinese electronics that have survived for years, so technically they pass QA, but are cheap feeling and annoying to use despite being expensive. Lenovo laptops come to mind.

Have you seen how rampant this is on Amazon, Wish.com, et al, let alone on Chinese owned retailers? There are entire product categories where you can't avoid buying a shoddy product simply because no alternative exists. I spend hours scouring Amazon to find brand names and sellers I can trust in an attempt to avoid this, dodging page after page of knockoff garbage. It's absolutely exhausting, and often impossible to avoid. A lot of people have given up entirely on purchasing from Amazon, but the convenience is a big factor for me.

So, yes, there are some products made in China with strict quality control that are worthwhile owning. But most are just quick waste making some shady CEOs rich. In either case, they'll most likely be copied and eventually made as cheaply as possible.[1][2]

Consider that so many thousands of companies are involved in the manufacture of the lowly pencil that there is no possible way to even determine the carbon footprint of it. Howinell can that work with a gigantic company like Microsoft? How can Microsoft's auditors come up with a remotely credible number? (They can't.)

But what makes it all work is the pricing mechanism of the free market, not some auditing system.

Yeah, I would argue that calling it counterfeit is completely wrong. Cassia and Ceylon cinnamon are both in the genus cinnamomum, so it's completely appropriate to call both cinnamon. Really, they're two very different spices whose flavors are only somewhat similar and have different culinary uses, but Ceylon cinnamon is less common in the US, so when we say cinnamon we pretty much always mean it to be cassia cinnamon- no deception or counterfeiting involved here.
Ah yes, when the news disagrees with your worldview attack the source. The article is well-researched with plenty of links, but your response is expected.
At grave risk of wooshing, the person you responded to meant "shit" to mean "stuff". And while I love fiction, the best way to dump facts into my brain (and I suspect most people's brains) is directly. Cramming lectures into fiction does a grave disservice to both, and while a talented author can sneak them in such skill is often better applied to either domain alone.
> Just because some cryptos goes to zero doesn’t mean all crypto has zero value.

That's true. Crypto has zero value because it has no utility. It's like a Pokemon card: it only has value if people have assigned value to it. You can't make anything with it, and it doesn't give you any legal right to a future cash flow (like a stock or a promissory note does).

Let me predict your response: "The same is true of fiat!"

Yes, true. Fiat currency can also drop to $0 in value, of course. But no one is pretending otherwise, and fiat currency is heavily manipulated by central banks to avoid large peaks and valleys (which works in some countries and not in others).

The problem with crypto is not that it's imaginary money. It's that its supporters pretend otherwise.
Where does one buy these glucose monitors ? Do you need to get it prescribed by doctors ? Or can healthy people get one too ?
I found the waitlist and onboarding process off-putting, to the point where I just didn’t want to even use it.

I remember getting as far as, “ok, now you need to go through the onboarding process”. I asked if I could skip but they insisted I schedule time with them, so I just didn’t bother.

This was probably one of the weirdest experiences I had with a SaaS product.

Anyway, I wish them well and I hope they pull through the whatever-is-about-to-happen with minimal damage.
I read about 50ish books a year and all of them are non-fiction. It’s not because I look down on fiction but mostly because I can’t seem to finish any fiction book I ever pick up.

Just this year I tried to read Musashi, Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy and some classic Russian novels and I can’t do it. I’m not sure why and I’m well aware of the benefits. So to an extent I imagine Sivers is similar.
This makes some sense, I've met or worked with easily 100 MIT grads, all of these failure modes feel within the band of the kinds of issues you have. The people who are duds on a purely productive level definitely fit the mold you describe and tend to burn out in low end jobs from what I've seen.

The attitude problems are common enough that managers used to recruiting out of these schools learn strategies specifically for handling them. I've regularly heard comments like "So-and-so is great but they're very green and just... very MIT" and everyone knowingly nods their head and commiserates. Things usually get better once they've been out of school for 4-5 years (though also, some are great straight out of school).

Graduates with none of these problems generally get snapped up by super prestigious positions so you're less likely to interview or hire them if that's not you.
Long legs can't save it from Japanese cooking shows http://ironcheffans.com/?p=1573
I could easily live on that much per day if I chose to, cooking simple (and delicious) country food from my childhood, made from fresh ingredients. Or being a bit selective about the partially prepared food I buy. That's paying big city grocery prices. Anything else is more an unwillingness to cook or lack of imagination.

To put it another way, I am perplexed by the idea that it needs to cost much more than $3/day to feed yourself healthy food in the US, whether or not you have that as your budget. I'm not sure how it wouldn't be obvious that this is eminently achievable without sacrificing a good eating experience. A bit less meat, a little more legumes, and you're done.
Even paupers deserve some cream in their diet.
I'm not new to finance, financial scams, software, or cryptocurrency. I was the CTO of a company that pivoted -- against my wishes -- to DeFi, spent a lot of time studying the state of the field, decided that there was no merit to any of it, and exited the company (at great personal financial cost).

How often do we see lack of morality blamed on capitalism?

For example: if there shouldn't be billionaires, why buy from Amazon rather than a local shop?

Perhaps the same level of consciousness and self reflection would be required here too.
