Would you share some insight on why Intel failed at making EUV work? Gelsinger said on a podcast (Decoder) recently that in fact they fought it.

Obviously, they are kind of big enough to do both — make a half hearted attempt and fight it all the same due to some internal politics. However, for something this existential, one would think that the smart people and the leadership would try to put some focus on the field. Was it that bad? Really, looking for some insight on what really went down.
Thanks for the recommendation, I will take a listen. I think he wrote about that in his op-ed about being in a band in Harvard. https://www.nytimes.com/column/tom-morello
Arguably Web3 is two things:

1. An ill-defined buzzword with some vague concepts to try and "fix" aspect of the current web. Nobody can really agree what it is or isn't.

2. The crypto-bros various attempt(s) to implement their special vision of this buzzword, mostly in an attempt create a reason for cryptocurrency to have some kind of intrinsic value.

> Why would anybody outside of the crypto scam sphere care about it if that were the case?

People generally don't, but that doesn't so crptobros continually trying to "gaslight" people into thinking it's going to be a thing. The technique worked quite well when used for bitcoin, why not try it again?
TBL's Solid is a decent attempt to build a decentralized web. But imo it leans too heavily on clunky w3c protocols instead of building something new. The developer experience (at least when I tried it a few years ago) was awful. The end user experience isn't much better.

The problem seems to be that any move towards decentralization necessarily comes with a hit to convenience or ease of use. So outside of the tiny subculture that cares about these things, these projects never get much traction.

That said, I hope we keep building them--there could be a political future where they come in handy.
When i recall my experiences with Amazon consumer products (not AWS), it really makes me hesitate to use their products or ever work for them. I can just imagine my Product person or Manager chastising me for trying to give the customer a better experience

for example: Amazon music and audible regularly crashed on my android device (Pixel, not so bizarre brand). After getting 3 USB based cables that burnt themselves out (overheated), I refuse to buy electronics from Amazon.com and now only use best buy (their brands, not the marketplace).

The vast majority of bond market is not new issues. (I don't know the exact “age distribution” of bonds but that would be interesting.)

If old bonds have pitiful rates compared to new issues, the pool of buyers for the old is thin and bond prices suffer.

This is especially bad for those in retirement who sell bonds to fund living expenses.
I would urge anyone whose uses tweets as a basis for decisions on who or what to vote for, to not do so. The same is true for campaign ads on YT and other social media platforms, or on cable TV channels, or on billboards or campaign mailers.

If you're going to vote, be responsible and do a diligent background check on the candidates and measures in your district. Check their funding sources (opensecrets). Check their voting history, if they're an incumbent. See what donors and PACs they owe loyalty to. Yes, it takes a little time, and you may have to deal with Google or other search engines presenting biased results, but then at least you have some idea what you're really voting for.

However, I personally think these Congressmembers have very little real power or decision-making capability. They're lower down in the state-corporate hierarchy, with the actual Central Committee consisting of people like CEOs of the major defense contractors, investment banks and hedge funds, fossil fuel producers, technology and communications corporation, etc. The American government is essentially an oligarchic or plutocratic system, with politicians and bureaucrats acting as little more than middle managers.

You're surprised by the fact that subreddit moderators abuse their power to remove content and eventually ban users who post content they disagree with?

Dozens if not hundreds of popular subreddits even have bots in place that will automatically ban you from subreddit (A) if you ever engage on any "wrong-think" subreddit (B) in any capacity, even if you're not a member of subreddit (A).

In a sense, the fact that we're debating whether Bezos's personal beliefs influenced The Washington Post or not is already a point in favor of Bezos. If he was like Musk, we'd be instead arguing "When Bezos ordered The Washington Post to run a full-page announcement titled 'If you unsubscribe from The Washington Post you are racist,' was Bezos out of line?"
The point is that if you want to have a device on the internet you will "have to" by definition. You don't get a choice. Everything on the global internet is subject to arbitrary inspection at any time by anyone. That's how it works. Someone may inspect your device and discover they are blocked, or ports aren't open, but arbitrary inspection isn't something you ever have a choice in.
You are right, I misread. I apologize. Unfortunately, you don't get to decide who replies to you or not, and the "but fiat currency!" is even easier to disabuse: it has societally inherent worth because it can be used to pay taxes even if it is not accepted in any other venue (which of course it is), whereas cryptocurrency's primary use is to grift or be grifted.

That is inherent worth, unless you intend to go full big-brain about the Fall of Society, and at that point nobody is going to care about your digital ledger unless it comes with lead-backed securities.
I wish the word vector didn’t have so many different uses in science and engineering.
Isn’t the list of companies already public? I’ve seen it at a few places.
It is know since companies have existed that this is indeed bad corporate governance. The CEO should be firable at the leisure of the board, and the board at the leisure of the shareholders.

What seems to happen often is blurried lines: the ceo founder is majority shareholder, the board is his family, friends and paid lawyers, the shareholders are asleep at the wheel as long as some profits rain in, the regulator finds no law broken.

Tesla is a model of bad governance, to the point the harshest sanction a regulator could levy against their chairman/ceo for manipulating the stock price, a capital sin, is to make him only CEO, while not removing his family members from the board... a systemic european bank is the model of good governance: you can see epic ceo vs board fights, shareholder revolutions etc etc.

I realize this is an emotional topic for some people but think about what this is really doing: the government isn't asking anyone to open anything up but rather scanning what they've already exposed to the entire internet. If there's something there you want to keep private, you should be closing it to everyone except the authenticated users you want to have access to it. You are not better off in any meaningful way if you block a public vulnerability scanner but leave yourself wide open to everyone else.

Consider, for example, the possibility that the government might have technical people at least as adept as the average teenager looking to pirate movies. If they were trying to something you consider malicious, would they a) put up a public web page telling you how to detect their traffic and stop it[1] or b) scan it from IPs which are not easily attributed? Using cheap commercial hosting for that would cost a fraction of what they pay a single employee per month and it's not exactly a technically-daunting task — and if it were, they'd toss a few thousand at Shodan.io to do it for them, an amount which could be buried in the printer supply budget of any national government.

Exactly. This is such a strange attitude. If they are really ‘high-level’, they should either walk away or push the ship in the direction that their CEO is calling for.

Many prominent birdsite people are US journalists, pundits, and celebrities. They thought that although social media are the Leopards Eating my Face Party, their faces would stay untouched, and it would just be the proles who were banned or shadowbanned or bullied off. Anyone who was on Photobucket or Tumblr or MySpace knows why this was not a wise thing to believe, but some people need to have the leopard actually bite them to believe it can happen.

A scary amount of 'news' in the USA is rewritten twitter threads with the origin more or less hidden.

So its as if the young people kicked off Tumblr had the mainstream media to amplify their complaints.

I know I should interpret every comment in good faith, but it really is hard to understand how you can read my comment and make such a reply. It feels like you didn't actually take the time to understand what I said or even read the article before commenting.

At any rate, if a company found a cure for cancer the stock market would absolutely skyrocket in a way almost never before seen. It's unbelievably hard to imagine how a company finding a cure for cancer would be to the detriment to a diversified portfolio.
I remember being in high school and my soccer teammate was having people over for a party. He put on RATM and told me, "This band, you're not going to believe it, they don't sound like anything out there right now. Plus, listen the lyrics dude, they're super heavy!"

That first track Bombtrack and then Killing In The Name and that was it, I was hooked.
I've had a few "well documented cases" shared with me in my time. Generally they are lengthy rants that make it clear that the author doesn't understand the constraints or goals of the business.

Occasionally, there will be some useful insights mixed in, but that is rare. I'd suggest rather than trying to make the case independently, find a trusted party, tell them that you have concerns about X, and let them drive the conversation. You may pique their interest, or give them a chance to validate concerns they already have.

It's a different set of banks. I've got a high-yield online-only savings account that paid 2% or so last time I checked. I've also got a checking account with a brick & mortar bank that pays something like 0.01%, and the savings and money market options at that institution aren't much better.

Thanks for your response + clearly you have a strong understanding of ADHD as a neurodevelopmental condition (and the stats around medication's efficacy!). Medication is by far the most effective treatment method for ADHD at 80%+, which is incredibly astounding given most mental health & brain disorders don't have such an effective treatment method.

We definitely understand that a software solution will by no means "fix" ADHD. It's an extremely complex condition layered on to extremely complex & individual human beings and we as a society have lots of work to do with education, awareness, stigma, medication, and other behavioral solutions (including coaching). We advocate for a mixed method that may include multiple of the above, potentially even all through experimentation, to find what works best for you uniquely.

Many of our members and community members either (1) are already on medication and use coaching to build skills & systems to further improve their lives, or (2) for whatever reason aren't able or want to be on medication [stigma, cultural barriers, can't be on because of other medications for co-occuring conditions, and many other reasons, or simply not wanting to] and use coaching either on it's own or with therapy/other modalities of care. Other benefits of coaching involve support & acceptance from someone who understands, and accountability to follow through on certain commitments in life.

We have built the service up with much care & love, alongside the ADHD community, clinicians, and ADHD experts & coaches, but are always open to more specific feedback on how we can improve. Our inbox is always open: hi@shimmer.care

According to this, m.s has ~130k users which is tiny for a 6yo platform. And despite the renewed interest, some of that usage is people logging back into (but not really using) old accounts.

https://mashable.com/article/mastodon-twitter-alternative-el...

Platform demand is sticky rather than highly elastic because there are significant switching costs, some technical but most around rebuilding relationship trees. This is the biggest headache faced by communities who are subjected to deplatforming unless they have well-established lifeboat drills (a face of life on smaller chans and forums in the days when DDOS attacks were easier and accepted as a form of inter-community rivalry).

I don't see a mass exodus from Twitter any time soon, because the telegraphic nature of tweets and very strong network effects make it the idea outlet for people who like to complain.

This sounds like such a dumb and self-defeating response. Advertisers have pulled ads from all kinds of platforms before as a performative act. But if that's where the eyeballs are, they'll just wait a few months and come back. Striking back at them seems like it might prevent that.
What is a diversified portfolio? Most indices are weighted by market cap, since everything else requires trading. So do we all the owe the most protection to the largest companies?

The idea is deeply deeply broken, essentially, "everyone should care about everything according to some notion of a portfolio i think is normal".
Its almost like the guy who spent $44 billion to buy an ad-funded social media company did not understand that advertisers and data buyers are the customers and users are the product. Its not rocket science!

Of course there's no requirement to put all the data on the blockchain. Why would there be? I even consider torrent networks to be "web3" and they're not blockchains.

It is not prohibitively expensive to store data on a blockchain, however. Arweave and Filecoin are the largest storage-centric blockchains. They each have multiple exabytes of data stored on them. Currently, you can store on Filecoin for free: https://nft.storage/ as a promotional thing, but even for larger data stores (https://web3.storage/) it's $10 / month for 120GiB and 8 cents per GiB after that.

OpenSea itself is a marketplace with some centralized elements. That's fine. The core listing, selling and transfer logic is written as a series of smart contracts, however.

They also compete with other marketplaces, some which are fully decentralized. They do not control or own the important data, which is the NFT itself.

Some NFTs store all the metadata on chain, you can implement an NFT contract metadata as base64 encoded JSON (as you can see in a recent project https://etherscan.io/address/0x6f4388602c5dd6c593bf7c9cf3128..., plug in tokenId 2 into tokenURI to see). Some store them on IPFS with a hash based reference to the content. Some use centralized storage in a private database. All are valid use cases with varying applications. If you only want to own fully native-chain NFTs, feel free to filter based on that criteria.
This is exciting! I still have a couple of Pebbles kicking around. I really miss them -- to this day, no other smartwatch meets my needs as well. I should dig them out.
There's other considerations at play:

- Engineering support when you're designing a new motherboard

- CPU SKUs with different use conditions. Intel Industrial rated CPUs are rated for 24/7 operation, 100% duty cycle for 10 years. I'm not aware if AMD has an equivalent.

- Long product support - CPU SKUs that are "guaranteed" to be around for X number of years. As as example, some Icelake SKUs are planned to be supported for 10-15 years. Let's use an x-ray scanner as an example. The x-ray scanner mfg needs a computer inside the machine to help process info and display images. The x-ray equipment has an intended lifespan of at least 5 years and they plan to sell/service this equipment for at least 10 years. The mfg wants to use an embedded computer that's going to be commercially available for a long time so they don't have to re-engineer and re-certify their machine. This is one reason why you see some "stickiness" with Intel.

> If Starlink isn't profitable with the current set of satellites, how can lose less money by adding more?

The US DoD, and various European Military is giving them a significant amount of money from private users; if this is a prioritization thing to ensure connectivity in certain areas (like war zones) I can understand that, if it's a scale thing that will eventually be mitigated with more satellites I can sort of understand that but the costs just went down and with more satellites and launches on the manifest this year than any other.

1Tb of data is fair for most people's usecase I imagine, and any overage from this userbase can mitigated with more expensive tiered packages, I just don't see how this can be tenable in the long term if they are to cover such a large breadth of the Human population as they anticipate.

Again, I'm a big believer of the SpaceX team and what they represent, I 've seen it in person and it's the most inspiring thing I've seen to date; what I have an issue is with is with Elon burning bridges with people who have the greatest need for these services and being left to defend it later when things like this occur: they were assisting in Tonga after the volcano, there was a pressing need for it in Kazakhstan during the revolt and subsequent suppression from the Russia/FSB and then subsequently in Ukraine not long after the invasion. And this was just in 2022.

This was all the Marketing they needed to sell this as a solid solution but I fear Elon is the biggest impediment here and I hope that Twitter takes all his attention so shit like this doesn't keep impeding progress.
