Most pens either ship with or will work with a piston converter. You don't need to mod a pen just to use inks other than those available in compatible cartridges.

Nix is running face-first into complexities of build and package managers. As an observer it looks like Python's package ecosystem in particular is a giant mess. This affects Nix disproportionately because Nix actually integrates all package updates into one channel which nobody else anywhere does (and I guess package authors often don't care to fix), and it's even worse because a lot of projects use python as a build dependency (?!) which then cascades these issues even farther.

I've been following this thread [1] about the issue which has valid interested parties including users, package authors, and nix package maintainers, and contains various proposals to solve or alleviate the problems.

Key takeaway for me when thinking about other remote sensing companies is this:

> Our investors wanted us to be a SaaS company with SaaS metrics and SaaS growth. We simply were not. We should have structured our entire business around being a high-end consulting company.

I'm not sure there is such a thing as an 'intuitive' interface beyond those where the physical action of the control is visible and obvious (turning the wheel rotates the gear that raises the gate type interface)

I think just about everything else requires context, which is just a fancy way of saying that someone taught them how it worked at some point or they played with it long enough to guess their way to enough breadcrumbs that they built up that context themselves.
This seems like a bit hostile for some cool research
Had the same thought. Don't know what data iRobot collects, but perhaps its telemetry includes square footage of your rooms / house? (Amazon can use that to determine how wealthy you are). Attach an echo on that with microphone and camera, and the iRobot could even sneakily follow you and spy on you - Alexa always with you in your house, anywhere!
Is there a tangible difference between chinese and american companies when it comes to privacy? It seems either will sell your data to the highest bidder.
Sure. But many countries have their "weak" spots.

Let Nancy Pelosi go to Catalonia on a military jet, without Spain's approval. It would be a major scandal.

Or hell, if Xi Jinping got around US government on a submarine, and appeared in Texas to support its independence.

All independence is based on having some autonomy (trivial) and no one other calling your bluff.

This is the key statement.

Build more SFH suburbs, gonna take you longer and longer to get far away from those cities.
If you find older ones, you often find unofficial "secret" paths in convenient areas (the poor areas will have actual holes in fences, etc).

The main downside is often the houses are packed in such a way that there's no path without going through someone's yard.

> Apple has spent many years happily profiting from cheap Chinese manufacturing, labor, electrial engineering expertise and supply chains to the point where they are now completely beholden to a foreign country.

Up to a point there's a cost advantage, but Tim Cook has also pointed that Apple uses Chinese factories because it allows them to take advantage of the local manufacturing capabilities, which are substantial. [0] In fact to hear him tell it those capabilities are simply not available elsewhere. I take him at his word on this topic at least.

Why would I want to engage in conversation with a robot?
I’ve been using iPhone 6S since it was the flagship and I still don’t know any 3D Touch operations or shortcuts. I actually had to look up just now to double-check that this phone even has it and it isn’t disabled. I’m sure I could find a cheat sheet if I cared but generally I think of “intuitive” as being something you’d discover naturally at least once in nearly 7 years of daily use.
> everyone here is choosing cheaper Chinese goods so we're all complicit too.

its not like we have much choice anymore as consumers. There's hardly anything made elsewhere.

I think that undermines the inherent objectiveness of scientists. If people have to be skeptical of scientists they will not believe anything that they say (take the ideas of relativity or quantum mechanics). Scientists have one thing going for them in public communication and trustworthiness is it.
One interesting fact is that while GDP/Capita decline, median GDP/Capita doesn't.

Maybe our indicator should be median rather than average, if we are really worried about the middle class.
It would be nice if the authors of this genre of blog post explicitly outlined what they think education is and what they think it should be for.
This is an argument from the general to the specific which does not apply in this particular case, nor in many others like it. As a mind is plausibly an information process ocurring within the body, this generalization does not rule out an informational model of the physical processes of that body producing a mind.

If the argument you present here could be so easily generalized, it would work just as well for “proving” that a computer model of an Enigma cypher machine cannot encipher text.
The source being a tweet from clear right wing nutcase. Not gonna waste my time looking through his tweets to learn that he thinks there are "election fraud" in AZ.

I'm not a labor economist and know nothing about job reports. A quick read into the technical notes mentions that there are two separate surveys and the 528k number comes from the second establishment numbers (https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.b.htm).
The most interesting thing for me here is that the headline immediately evoked pictures of Indian monkey gangs and my memory of walking through idyllic Nara and being surprised at how, shall we say, straightforward at least some of the deer were there. Both are mentioned in the article.
> You want a fine or extra-fine nib, because anything else will feather and bleed on cheap paper, but fine or extra-fine works just fine on cheap paper.

It does depend on the ink, too. I have a Parker XF nib that will absolutely bleed through my notebook, which wasn't exactly cheap either. Not sure if it's supposed to be actually "good paper", though (Leichtturm), but I'm quite disappointed.

Diamine ink will take forever to dry on that paper and will be seen from the other side. And it's not even a particularly dark shade of blue. Regular supermarket-bought Parker ink (Quink washable blue) works much better.
I've rarely seen individuals be very happy with Linux / Unix outside a few very dedicated, stereotypical hacker-types. Safe to say anecdotes don't work.

I'd also think twice about the consequences of these decisions. If Gitlab and co decide Linux/Mac is the answer for market share, it's only a matter of time before hackers start targeting those platforms en masse. If the answer to Windows was restriction galore, I fail to see how humans won't repeat history and do the same to Unix.
Where's the acronym in the title?
Trump is a philosophically unmoored political opportunist who would trash the broad conservative ideological consensus within the GOP in favor of a free-floating populism with strong-man overtones.

Trump won one election, and got an even larger turnout in the next election. In the second, they could not possibly pretend that they were unaware of his character.

It seems to me that National Review is fooling themselves if they think that there is a "broad conservative ideological consensus within the GOP". They are deliberately, consciously voting for what they want.

Maybe it's "honest and straightforward", but also deluded. And the National Review has a very long history of helping create exactly this kind of opposition to the consensus they claim to want. They were instrumental in setting up the Republican party to choose "free-floating populism with strong-man overtones".
I mostly agree with you on land - but my understanding is that there are laws put in place that make modular construction de facto forbidden in most jurisdictions. Perhaps this falls into your definition of zoning or perhaps it doesn't. But I imagine if these were lifted systematically you'd get bigger investment.

Google simply returns human written results, so delegating the trust problem. You can track author's record and judge if they're trustworthy yourself. Doing the same thing for GPT-3 is much harder. How are you going to debug the model? Probably there is only a handful amount of people who is capable of debugging the model even with all necessary access granted. You can think it as autonomous driving which already has reached to a good level for 99% of use cases (at least for Waymo and Cruise), but no one think it's going to mass deploy robotaxi anytime soon.
As I said, the only converter of mine that seems to have a capacity problem is the Namiki, but for practical reasons I also almost always run carts in that pen anyway.

I don't need a project, and I'm not super interested in locking a pen into a single mode of operation. The beauty of most pens is that you can go with carts OR with a converter, depending on mood. (Obviously some, like Pelikans and TWSBI, are bottle-fill only, but you know that going in.)
Let's be fair to three.js, the comparison would be to aframe.

Citizens of middle eastern countries that are hostile to Israel would care the most, but other international travelers also benefit from avoiding the Israel passport stamp to avoid unnecessary difficulties if they need to visit those middle eastern countries in future.
You should educate yourself about the fact that PRC Taiwan and USA all legally recognize one China policy. China is not PRC, PRC is at best the only internationally recognized government of China. Even so there is still only one China.

Of cuz, because of US are exceptional, US does not abide by the international law, so Pelosi visited Taiwan as a high level official from US.

Apple need to operate in the boundary of law. That's it.

As for whether or not PRC money is immoral. For a company founded in a nation practiced slavery in modern history, performed genocide on American Indian, launched Vietnam war, and brutally supported and helped the other fellow morally coruppted war crimals to oppress Palestinian Yemen, Cuba etc.

They are part of the problem from the very beginning. They are the original sin that drives all sorts of evil.

You got the whole cause and effect reversed.
China does look very weak when they behave exactly like North Korea does. They think it's a show of strength, and in a way it is, but it's also a dangerous weakness stemming from fear and insecurity, the kind that may start WW3 some day, and China and particularly the CCP will be wiped off the face of the earth, along with a lot of us.
Isn't it even EASIER to get a converter?
Yeah, Amazon having AWS in their pocket to pivot to as their major moneymaker seems like a one-in-a-lifetime FAANG-creating gold mine. Uber doesn't have anything like that. Maybe self-driving cars could have been but that's much harder than predicted and it's not even an option for them anymore.

I don't think it increases the chances, but it also doesn't decrease them enough so as to make the eventual ascendancy of one of the many impossible. It's an argument that he's not specially gifted, just lucky.
Well, no ill will to the Helium people - it seems like a somewhat smart idea. I wouldn't call it a "Web3" use-case though - as many have mentioned - they could have done their own payment processing and it wouldn't change the underlying product much (except possibly in the excitement of customers / would-be hotspot hosters).

I guess my ill will here is with VC firms. Helium has raised 364.8M. With $6,500 revenue? I've talked to about a dozen folks like me, doing small, on-the-cusp-of-success startups, doing 3 to 5x that revenue with nowhere near the exposure as Helium, who get essentially laughed out of the room when trying to raise 500K.

I have a very hard time buying that the founders are ~600x better at fund raising than others, or that the idea even requires that much capital to prove out. Could they have not started with say, one neighborhood in SF, proved the idea, and raised from there?

The only conclusion is that the author of this piece is right - it's a scam to dump the hyped coin onto retail investors. If it ever comes out that A16Z did in fact sell at peak and profited massively from this, I cannot help but feel it is existentially damning for the concept of silicon valley. I say that as a lowly but devoted tech acolyte.

Well, at any rate, my response of being a bit annoyed at "what's your path to 100B" type questions from VCs will now change to "What makes you a capitalist and not a racketeer?".
Obviously the tariffs on the goods Apple imports from China and from "China" aren't high enough.
Same. Had to take a sip of coffee and do a double take.
Maybe Apple shouldn't be in China then?
We don't want to have to pay for a windows pro license, therefore we will use a generally more expensive machine with a "free" OS?
"Liberalization" in trade was always a farce. The US itself always had applied tariffs and importation quotas to even its closest trade partners and allies. "Free trade" is a PR speak that is used when pressuring other governments to open up their economy. Not your own.

Here’s a direct request

https://ler.amazon.com/us

Here’s an article from Gizmodo

https://gizmodo.com/ring-s-hidden-data-let-us-map-amazons-sp...

> Neighbors, which has millions of users, is advertised as a way to receive “real-time crime and safety alerts” from local law enforcement and other Neighbors users nearby. A Ring camera isn’t required to use the app. In cities where police have partnered with Ring, police officers have access to a special law enforcement portal, through which the officers can request access to Ring footage. They can choose a date, a time, and a location on a map, and Neighbors users with cameras in the vicinity are alerted.
The question is what we lost because we did those things.

We know what happened, we don't know what alternative histories would have been like. We don't know if they would have been better or worse.
On one hand yes.

But from a nocoiner perspective if this mining facility never existed in the first place then demand on the grid would be lower and there would be no need to turn anything off.
An old solution for a modern problem
My best friend's dad was high up in Woodstock 99 corporate, which means he was responsible for making much of it run (yeah, I guess there were some issues ). We had backstage passes, a house, and a ... weird experience. Did some stupid things. Some highlights:

- We were on stage in the famous closing Red Hot Chili Peppers show (like in the wings, looking out on the audience from behind the band). That was surreal. We could see the fires start in the distance, stuff getting ripped down, things starting to sort of go to hell. All while, the most amazing band of the moment is playing the most amazing songs 30 feet away from us. Quite a contrast between awesomeness and ... whatever the strange mix of emotions riots give.

- We learned that there was no Mountain Dew in the whole event because Coke got the contract, so we went out and bought many cases, drove it in through our special entrance, and basically auctioned it off. People were willing to pay $5 a can. We made a lot of money. Pretty sketchy.

- Worse/weirder, we had a backpacks full of ice to hold the Mountain Dew in while we walked around the crowd selling it, and people started to offer to buy ice from us to cool off. So once we ran out of Mountain Dew, we started yelling "Ice is nice! We got ice!" and selling it. That ... well, I feel like that was me experiencing a real microcosm of capitalism and the allure of artificial scarcity ... and not acting the way I would hope . Give away the damn ice man.

- We kind of just walked around backstage and there were so many super famous people that none of them felt very special, and they'd just kind of talk to you while you were in line for food. Ice Cube had some cool sneakers that my friend chatted with him about. George Clinton was chill. I think we talked with Erykah Badu for a while at some point. (Stars are not at all like this backstage at a normal concert, btw, which we also did a lot because of his father. A their normal concerts, these same performers are the center of the universe, and don't have time to chat with a bunch of high schoolers running around.)

Anyway, it was a very strange event, and we had a very strange vantage point.
I didn't go but remember it being the end of the 90s decade with a thud. I've been to few festivals that decade and beyond (Phish in Worchester/Maine/NY, Lalapoloza in NJ, Solid Sound). Those seemed pretty well run, compared to what I'v heard about woodstock.

The one day festivals are easier. Anytime you have people camping out you can have problems (the solid sound and phish were well run but had camping). For the last Phish show we rented an RV and had 3 tents set up around it, instead of just tents. I guess we were porta-pottied out. Though were woken up from the hissing that some entrepreneurs had decided to set up a nitros tank/sales behind our RV (we asked them to move, they said sure, but did not, when 2more of us awakened and showed up around them, they moved...)

The bands you bring, bring their audience. Some audiences are more trouble than others. In my years at Boston Calling you could tell the headlining Metalica and Tool fans apart from a lot of the rest. To be fair everyone at those shows was well behaved and you could see those fans at a lot of other bands shows. One of the Documentaries on the woodstock 99 points out, just 3 female bands, and a lot of bands popular with young guys might have been part of the issue. I mean mosh pits were a real thing in the 90s. I went into a few, but some shows I honestly wouldn't go near them. [1]

Having a concert continue on when the fans are actively setting fires seems so surreal.

Bradley-J (a boston DJ) was there behind the stage, and had some good commentary on it which I can't find. My cousins friend (VH1 Matt) was there and had some scathing commentary when he talked about it.

There is a decent documentary about woodstock99 on HBO Max. Worth a look.

Its somewhat telling Coachella was also in 1999 and is still going strong.

"Apple need to operate in the boundary of law. That's it."

Whose law? Whose norms? Apple may be a global company but it uses American sovereignty, intellectual property law, and influence on other sovereign nations with respect to protecting its wealth, even if a good chunk of it is generated overseas.
China has the second largest military spending in the world, second only to the US. What's more, you really need to look at purchasing power parity (PPP). Basically, it costs less to do things in China, and that really matters for military spending. For example, soldiers in the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) receive far lower salaries than the equivalent US personnel. It's hard to figure out the true impact of this, but it's important to acknowledge. One article about this is here: https://voxeu.org/article/why-military-purchasing-power-pari... - which argues that US military spending is basically equal to Russia+China once that's considered. Also, there's geography to consider. If China is attacking next-door-neighbors while the US is trying to defend an ally at long distance, it would necessarily cost the US much more. All of this makes comparing military spending much more complicated, as well as depressing. It's my hope that military adventurism will be avoided.

I don't think there will be a agreement as long as China is still held by current government.

Although we still speak chinese. The culture already differs too much to the point that there isn't any belongingness in young people.

And thing that is more interest is. Statistically, the lower the age is, the lower the belongingness to PRC they have.

When people grows. The average belongingness will be even lower.

I think that is why PRC is so eager about that currently. 'Before everything is too late.'
