> Practically: use weaker (around 1.5 diopters)

This is what optometrists in Asia do, except in the West there is always a cultural tendency to "overprescribe"
Would love to see a USA version of this.
I wish I had a straightforward answer for you. This is an important question to quantify, in order to justify the scope and timeline for building features. As an engineer, I always believed that there’s some version of the “no free lunch theorem” applicable to building product roadmaps (and as an extension identifying pertinent product features). Meaning, you can’t reasonably predict what features are going to work, and how well they’re going to work to translate that to $$$.
If I could take a guess, I would build out a framework to accurately guesstimate the value of a feature as follows. A brute-force approach to build out a free —> paid feature funnel: 1. Launch a beta or a “free” version of whatever feature you’re building. This could be as hand-wavy as conducting focus groups and doing proper UI/UX research to validate there’s “some amount” of interest in your user base. 2. Tighten the scope and refine the feature to make it as seamless as possible. Check the app/usage stats and KPIs to ensure people actually derive value out of your features albeit not actually paying for it now. 3. Start charging for it. And see how many people will actually pay for this well-refined feature.
Do this long enough, your company should have some baseline numbers for all of these steps. %conversions on steps 1 —> 2 —> 3 and therefore, better ways to estimate the “why”.
> It's enough to show the errors of the current explanation

Not if you want to argue in favor of a specific alternative.

I can point out the discrepancies between theory and observation, for example, with regards to the orbital velocities of the outer arms of galaxies. But that does not give me license to hypothesize that this is caused by leprechauns and expect to be taken seriously.

> it's indeed valuable to prove that the virus does not use the receptor, suggested by the status quo, to get into the cells

That's true. But again, you have to show some actual evidence that the current-best-explanation is wrong. You can't just proclaim it.
I use the same ones as my phone, mainly SNS.

Every bear markets brings down a bitconnect. if you get into crypto, at the very least - understand not your keys, not your coins!
More generally, it will just put in place for more crypto regulations just like what happened to Mt Gox, Bitconnect, and now look at what is happening with the Luna/UST stablecoin crash, which also affected startups like https://stablegains.com

> Would the damages be zero or some midpoint .How do you assess damages for something that is worthless or close to worthless or on the verge of being worthless.

I doubt that the victim(s) will recover anything worth their original investment and they would have to accept the loss, just like those Theranos investors who lost all their money.
In addition to that, even the US Marines has its own air wing with their own fighter aircraft even. Is there a compelling reason why Marines need to fly air combat missions.

My girlfriend met him and his wife once during the 80s or so. It's not that crazy, they really are humble and genial with ordinary folks.

They made such an impression on her that our dog is named after his wife, following her broader tradition of giving our pets presidential names.
This is true: but Apple also shot themselves in the foot here.

Perhaps you missed this headline: "Apple earns more from gaming than Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft, Activision combined" [1].

Like someone posted, Apple plays the long game; the economics are making it so that if you're a game developer, you have to deal with Apple, like it or not.

Curious that you think blogging is more efficient than tweeting.

Writing many short pieces of content asynchronously and being able to GC them from your mental stack whenever you need is objectively a very efficient way to publish.

It's important to remember that not everyone's brain works the same as yours - for some people it's quite transformative to be able to document thoughts atomically.
(which I suppose is the rational thing to do)

I agree wholeheartedly with everything you said but this. I understand why you said it. But for any mother, it is never rational to attack your children's father in front of your children. By doing that, you are attacking 50% of your own children. The more successful you are at getting them to hate their father, the more successful you'll be at getting them to hate half of themselves. The damage done to children from this is incalculable to the point that any parent that engages in it is a bad parent regardless of any other redeeming qualities they may have.

I'm sorry for what you went through and hope things have gotten better for you.

Yes, but sometimes I wonder if Firefox is still fully open source. I still hate having to do the first thing first when I install the browser is disable Pocket, change the default search from Google to DuckDuckGo (the latter is a recent disappointment). I miss the traditional / classical browsing of the 90s. Heck, I will pay for a browser that brings back the 90s experience.

Seems like a ponzi scheme in crypto collapses almost every other week these days.

It was LUNA in May

Celsius now

Probably USDD soon

A lot of these "fake internet money" coins have no use cases other than trading with the next sucker willing to buy on crypto platforms

And then you have platforms like Coinbase facilitating trading of such "assets" or tokens with little to no due diligence

A lot of these:
Failed as a currency
Failed as an inflation hedge
Failed as a store of value

Crypto bros will try to do whatever mental gymnastics they can to justify their investment, probably because they are all in. But I can't wait for most of these coins to implode for good as they serve no use to society. Comparable to cigarettes (zero health benefits) than wine (harmful in large amounts, has health benefits in moderation).

If someone is offering you a yield of more than 18% APY, then you are the yield to the next guy!
To the skeptics in here: As someone who experienced long COVID for almost 12 months, the first problem is that most people won’t even get diagnosed with long COVID.

I’m lucky to have had the time to research a lot on my own and find private healthcare to get to the bottom of this.

My initial diagnosis was stress and a second attempt allergies. Took me six months and tests to finally get a diagnosis.

Before I got a diagnosis, I was ashamed of telling people I had self-assessed myself with long COVID, it honestly sounded crazy at the time.

Now in some good news, I did fully recover after 12 months.

Rather than dismissing long COVID, I would ask that we at least accept we do not fully understand COVID. This is not to create fear, but to avoid dismissing suffering some are still experiencing.

I don't think many people are limiting risk. As far as I can tell where I am, people are living life just as it was in 2019. Maybe I'll see one or two masked people a day, but I highly doubt that means everyone else is boosted. It's a good feeling rationalization, but I don't think it's a valid explanation considering what I see happening outside.
A program could have all the advertising and tracking in the world and still be fully open source, as long as nothing stops you from creating a fork of it without that stuff.

> I stay on Firefox, instead of Safari, because the FF bookmark tech is better

It's just insanely better, and the best theory I can come up with why Chrom(e|ium) doesn't use tags or a sane bookmark manager is that Google really, really just wants you to search for whatever you previously saw, because delicious ad impressions

I tried to cheat and use Pocket as a bookmark manager, since it supports tags and also (sometimes) has a handy screenshot of the page, but I gave up on that pretty quick when I realized that Pocket doesn't change the extension icon when I visit a page I already had saved

I'm aware there are like 1500 other open source bookmark managers, don't at me
This article isn't about "eternal COVID" or "never recovering". It's about some symptom existing 4+ weeks post-infection. For some people, that means months. For others, it could be a single month. Maybe for some it's the rest of their lives, but this article makes no claims to that effect.

The Gameboy Color of all platforms has a great port of Ski Free: https://www.mobygames.com/game/microsoft-the-best-of-enterta... There are even solid ports of 2D Duke Nukem and Commander Keen games for it too.

I'm kind of surprised modern Microsoft/Xbox hasn't leaned into their retro past and brought back some of these old entertainment pack classics. Like a modern 3D SSX style Ski Free, modern GORILLA.BAS (with full port of qbasic as an Easter egg of course), or a 3D Hover! remake but with top tier modern 3D visuals, etc. Heck I bet you could even make fun abstract games out of old Windows 95 screen savers and their visuals.

edit: A wario ware clone with frantic mini game challenges cribbed from old Microsoft DOS/Windows games is the ticket. Imagine blasting down a hill in ski free, getting eaten by the monster, then jumping to a round of GORILLA.BAS, smashing into Encarta and having to quickly find a specific topic, etc. and navigating it all through a Bob style home interface while CANYON.MID plays and it randomly glitches into hot dog stand colors if you fail a mini game. Poorly digitized Bill Gates in a trench coat with toy shotgun is the end boss of course. :)
Not necessarily, but don’t you think its behavior is a bit, how can I put this, squirrelly?

"Planned obsolescence across the entire industry" is by definition a conspiracy. Without a conspiracy, any one of the involved companies would be striving to meet customer demand in order to gain an edge over their competition... if it were practical. As it turns out, they are doing what they consider practical.

You keep using the term "planned obsolescence", but it doesn't mean what you seem to think it means. Intel producing better processors every year isn't planned obsolescence... it's just the progress of technology, which naturally makes old technologies obsolete. It can't "amount to the same thing" as planned obsolescence. It's either planned or it isn't. 10gig has not reached the consumer space yet. It doesn't matter that it was standardized a long time ago. It's not a conspiracy or planned obsolescence... it's just price vs benefit, and 2.5gig is cheaper because it uses simpler technology.

Calling something "planned obsolescence" is a fairly serious accusation of intent. It obviously annoys me when people make statements like this without evidence.

Not all of these projects will survive the cryptocurrency crash. We only saw many silly DeFi projects popping everywhere when the market goes up, but I'm very certain that many of them (not all of them) will shut down when the down side comes back.

Yeah this is going to be much worse than Luna. Buckle up.
I mean... You kinda defeated your own point. You listed great number of great google innovations, and are (as far as I can tell) actually upset at people / users / market for not embracing them and allowing them to succeed?

FWIW I'm with you. People just don't seem to like the things I like so they die and I don't have things I like. But I don't find that google's fault or lack of their innovation. They seem to go more crazy than vast majority of companies to try crazy things - and you missed out on as many dead innovative things (Google goggles etc) as you listed :)

Why use '$' as the package namespace prefix/identifier instead of the already agreed upon convention of '@'? E.g. '@fresh/{package}' vs '$fresh/{package}'.

Seems like a departure from the norm for no reason unless there's some Deno particularity about it.
That last bit is a bit too real. We deserve better than having a monopolistic force controlling the web but with all the poor products of a rookie shop simply because they're all hand me downs from engineers climbing the internal google ladder.
It’s like learning the VIM commands/language.

I used VIM for a long time in read-only mode (not saving / creating memories).

Then one day I finally learned the VIM language command “:w”, which allows me to save a file (save a memory).

I wonder if memories are highly dependent upon learning a language/commands. Once you learn a language, it allows you to create and save.
> 1/5 of the population never recovering.

When you see an article saying that, please share it!

So much of the stuff I see just seems to discuss a post-viral syndrome that lingers for quite a bit longer than the acute infection, which is a phenomenon we recognize from other serious viral infections but haven’t historically invested a lot in studying.

This “never recovers” thing you talk about would be fascinating, especially with us only being a couple years into the disease circulating. I’d love to read the science behind that. You have any specific articles you remember?
My interpretation is that they were presenting themselves to the media who understood more about the topic they were discussing than they actually did. If you're a reporter and someone from company X comes to you saying they have important issues involving issue Y in product Z, you'll probably assume that they have significant expertise in issue Y - even if their involvement is only in some unrelated subcomponent of the actual product.

I'm a software engineer, but if I went to talk to a reporter about UI issues in a product, ignoring the obvious correct dismissal, I have nothing to do with anything UI related (I haven't worked on UI level anything in it must be the vicinity of a decade, and the UI stuff I did do was a super specific subset). If I'm presented as "an engineer working on Z" talking about UI, it would be reasonable to assume that I was a person who knew what they were talking about.

Hence a company X might reasonably feel that they need to clarify what I actually did (or did not) do.

Ooh, some competition for Next.js?

Vercel is doing a really good job with Next, but it's good to see some competition. Of course, that means there's now 65,535 + 1 more way of serving a web page using Javascript (sigh).

Rehydration is a really big deal. Sounds dorky but it dramatically speeds up load times and such by serving flat HTML and injecting JS afterward, like the old days, except you can write code like it's not the old days.
The problem is that it takes both sides to want to do that.
There seems to be a surplus of capital in our economy. Macroeconomically speaking, crypto is private actors taking the fall for us all.
This is all one big crash stemming from the Luna crash. Celsius had invested in Luna, lost some there and lost investors as well in the run for the exits.

One of Celsius’ shareholders and creditors is the stablecoin Tether. This broke its peg when Luna crashed, saw billions in outflows and never regained the peg. Been around 0.9990 for a month give or take when it used to hover a bit above 1.00

Luna crash hit a bunch of balance sheets, now Celsius has to recognize losses and fold. Question is who is next to fold? Probably Nexo, a Celsius clone. And Tether itself will be under immense strain.
No, my point is that businesses developing undeveloped land creates profits for businesses but also jobs and economic activity for the local community. And while some people don’t want that economic activity to happen—just like they don’t want Silicon Valley workers moving into San Francisco—most of the community is happy to have the money coming in.

The distinction you’re pointing to—federal versus private ownership, is both inaccurate and irrelevant. Nobody is “gifted” anything—the federal government leases or sells the land. And from the perspective of the local community the distinction doesn’t make a difference. They care about the economic development, not the legal particulars of the property rights. The legal particulars also don’t matter to the conservationists—their objection isn’t the price that the government is getting for these leases.
Very similar to sveltekit as well. I hope in the future you can swap out the preact for svelte.
