> This is definitely selection biased, but I have not seen VC's offer advice that is categorically more amazing than the advice you can crowd source elsewhere.

A lot of the "crowd sourced" advice is essentially digested and regurgitated advice that ultimately comes from high quality sources like Y Combinator and Steve Blank. Therefore it would be hard for venture capitalists to have better generic advice than that.

But the fact that they are willing to pay large amounts to be in a position to offer specific actionable advice to those that they invested in (eg by being on the board of directors), can be taken as a good sign that the VC believes that they are likely to wind up being able to give valuable advice that is specific to a given company's situation. And THAT you really can't crowd source from elsewhere.

> Anecdotally, that is not accurate. The limited experience I have with masterminds (I've never paid for their services, but have worked with a few directly, and many many of their clients) is that they do encourage their paying members to actively post about their individual success via social messaging. And as part of an on-going content marketing strategy, will often have successful members take part in a "hot seat."

That's not necessarily evidence of anything.

First, as you note, any such report is an anecdote. The plural of "anecdote" is not "data". Doubly not with such an active selection bias.

But, more importantly, anyone who is familiar with cognitive dissonance will be aware that the act of publicly saying how great X is will find it hard to later question whether X was actually beneficial. Therefore paying members who have posted about their success are likely to convince themselves that the program was more beneficial than it truly was. As well, the program clearly benefits from the advertising.

Therefore such anecdotes do more to remind me that some of these programs have cultlike elements, than it does to convince me that they work particularly well.

> Edit to add: at $100k for attendance, that already selects a certain individual with a certain level of success. While you may not see evidence that a mastermind attendee has had "more success" after attending than they would have had they not, you also don't see evidence that a mastermind attendee has had "less success" after attending. It appears that masterminds are filling some unmet need, and their clients are willing to pay.

If I accepted evidence of this type, then I'd have joined Scientology many years ago.

Just keep in mind the tradeoffs. For example, I was thrilled to get CarPlay in my Ioniq 5 until I realized A) it's wired, as I guess there's some exclusivity deal Apple has for wireless in cars with their own nav, and B) I lose features like the HUD-displayed navigation arrows, since that only works with native nav.

Upshot is I end up using native nav and really only use CarPlay for phone-based audio apps. I've only had the car for a few weeks, so maybe I settle into a different pattern long-term but I doubt it. I bought it for stuff like HUD-based nav, so having it be either/or probably means no CarPlay.
Adderall is prescribed for weight loss, according my my psychiatrist, but it’s not approved to treat weight loss. Although similar drugs like vyvanse are approved for binge eating disorder. I think adderall is prescribed when patients can’t afford vyvanse. Although vyvanse is going generic this year.

Or, you know, maybe your comment is the conclusion of the article at all.
Whenever I see FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) influencers, almost without fail, the "hidden" story is that they:

- Inherited money / property / etc.

- Started to dabble in stock 5-10 years ago, right before / during the greatest bull-run so far

- Work in tech / finance / law / general high-paying white collar job

- Dual income, spouse in similar profession

But the big talking points are of course how they like to make coffee home, and how you can save 2 bucks a day on doing that. Or how hustling 2-3 hours doing some menial online job will bring you extra 10-20 bucks a day, which adds up over 10-15 years.

edit: Also, related to the article, I have noticed a considerable uptick of these "YOU NEED TO KNOW THESE 5 [insert some software] TRICKS" tidbits. Just 10 minutes ago I was scrolling Instagram and got a bunch of vids like that promoting excel tricks, chatgpt tricks, etc.
"We will provide 2-4mbps download or uplink per beam. [...] Each beam will cover a 50km diameter on the ground."
Edge routers already have to cope with adding and removing arbitrary sized headers (just look at tunneling protocols like IPIP, L2TP or the more modern VXLAN), so it's not like MPLS with multiple labels is a new requirement for the data path. And it's only at the originating site that you have to push multiple labels onto a packet -- the receiving end should only have to pop at most 1 label off as the transport network would consume the rest. I had to implement a software MLPS data path once upon a time maybe a decade ago.

I've also written some Verilog code for adding and removing headers on packets on FPGAs. Once you have to support VLANs in hardware, you're already half way towards inserting an arbitrary number of bytes into a packet as higher data rates in FPGAs mean wide busses with all the corner cases of packets being aligned at various offsets into a 256 bit or 512 bit data path. Figuring out how to implement an ethernet CRC32 block that meets timing in a Kintex 7 was certainly fun!
I was thinking about that very thing is keeping up with patches. I suspect that tor is probably a couple of months behind firefox and then mullvad will probably be a month or two behind tor. It is easier to check between tor browser and mullvad browser because they both use git. firefox uses mercurial, so is probably harder.
I also used some UK shell provider (via SOCKS proxy + Putty) in the past and it worked really well. My guess is that there’s some there’s kind of threshold/concurrent connection that iPlayer looks at per IP address.

It’s pretty silly though, I would absolutely pay for a TV license if given the opportunity. Dear BBC: Shut up and take my money!
The way the me-of-25-years-ago thought is that the 90s pop music scene was pretty dire.

Saildrone | Multiple Roles | Onsite/Remote (US Only) | SF Bay Area (Alameda) | Full-Time | https://www.saildrone.com/

Saildrone is the world's leading collector of ocean related in situ data via uncrewed vehicle, above and below the sea surface. We work with governments, civic agencies, foundations, universities, and private companies around the globe to drive better information about our oceans and seas - be it sailing drones into the eye of hurricanes to obtain new scientific storm data, mapping out the ocean floor, collecting new CO2 data in hard-to-reach areas, counting biomass to establish fishing quotas, or detecting and stopping illegal fishing and drug trafficking.

Maybe you saw that we hucked a drone into a category 4 hurricane[1] last fall or again this year [2]. Or maybe that we've raised a $100M series C[3]. Or maybe you didn't see any of that, but you're still intrigued by the idea of autonomous, long endurance sailboats that help us better understand our planet.

Whatever the case, we're hiring for a breadth of different positions across our organization. In software, we're hiring for Firmware, Embedded, DevOps, and Platform Engineers. Stacks vary from team to team, but we're looking primarily for folks with backgrounds in C++, Python, and/or JavaScript (Node, TypeScript, React). We're remote-friendly for certain positions, though require folks to be onsite for others.

In addition to software engineers, we're also hiring for a bunch of other positions across the company in production/manufacturing, hardware engineering, and more!

I’m gonna ignore your personal insult and answer the actual claims in your post.

> 4g has very patchy coverage in rural Australia

This goes back to the claim in the original post. Starlink is an excuse not to rollout proper infrastructure.

> schooling and healthcare

Really? Are there honestly scenarios in the real world where people don’t have power but need to do school and healthcare via the internet. I find that hard to believe. Honestly if there exist rural communities where this is a concern than they deserve infrastructure, which goes back to the original post which claims:

> All these talks about Starlink -> Remember it's a bandaid solution to your governments poor planning and infrastructure rollout of a core utility / service.

> I can off the top of my head list hundreds of scenarios where remote work might become the only option for someone already living in the bush.

Do you mind listing some of them? It might be because of my lack of imagination, but I have a hard time seeing someone living in the bush, unable to relocate, suddenly finding a job that requires the need for high speed and low latency connection.
There is a growing class of tech orgs running operations that governments cant legally or openly run themselves. If I had to guess, that's partly "whats wrong with these people".

I'm not sure how obvious it is; that story seems just as likely to have been fraudulent as true.
Heh, I didn't have to imagine. Got a GigE switch (expensive at the time) and 8 of the 164LX motherboards. Worked fine, but aged quickly since annual performance increases on the PC were substantial, unlike today.

Then HP released (1991 or so) the "snake" workstations hp-730, about twice as fast as main sun competition, and also faster (at least on our codes) than the 21064/21164. Had a crazy fast X11 implementation. One of our collaborators cried that it was faster to run things from our workstation remote to his $30k sun workstation than it was to run it local.

HP rev'd the CPU in 1992 and brought out a HP-735, which was a cheap upgrade ($2,000 or so), which more than doubled the performance of the 730, added a much better SCSI system, doubled the clock, improved the cache, and improved the IPC. The floating point improvements were particularly noticeable.

I attended the "1000x" Alpha announcement in 1992. They promised a revolutionary 64 bit architecture promising 10x from IPC, 10x from increased cores, and 10x from increased clocks. Most marketing compared it to Sun's sparcs, which made it look good. Compiler optimization support looked uneven, sure some benchmarks looked good, but our computational workloads (EEG and MRI processing) preferred our HP-735.

Sadly around 1998 Dec (or maybe Compaq) decided not to sell the 264 through the same channels, so we ended up buying alphastation DS10s. But they were pricey, similar clock speeds, but around twice the performance of the 21164 because of various tweaks and moving to Out of Order execution.

Then not long after AMD brought out their answer to the Itanium, with the x86-64 extension. Suddenly PCs could do "real" work with a single process handling over 4GB of ram. Moving the memory controller on chip, so dual sockets has 2 memory systems and NUMA instead of Intel's shared front side bus was another revolution. Said FSB seemed largely responsible for the "Intel servers are slow" when busy. Disk I/O, network I/O, or using the second socket would substantially slow CPU performance.

All in all it was a pretty crazy decade that watched as the industry moved from single core, 100MHz, poor IPC, and 32 bit to multicore, 64 bit, over 1GHz, and much improved IPC. Sadly early 2000s were when Intel bluffed the industry into killing off alpha, pa-risc, (mostly) sparc, and mips for Itanium chips that shipped last, slow, and never hit their promised targets. For the first few years alpha matched itanium performance, despite having a huge process disadvantage.

My main problem with Safari is that it is not as convenient to use a developer tool. Sure, its devtools looks pretty but it doesn't have all the useful devtools extensions that Chrome/Edge has.

I use Safari as my main content browser but typically switch to Edge for development work.

Also when you read W3C specs it can get confusing pretty quickly, vage wordings, etc. Or have MDN documentation that doesn't describe particular behaviour that is defined in the W3C specs etc.
I wouldn't call any of these things a "bug", in the sense of a behavior that departs from an explicit or implicit specification. Some of them are just advantages and disadvantages of that overall approach.

Also, I'm disappointed that VM languages don't turn SIGBUS accessing a memory mapped region into a VM exception. They could, and it wouldn't even be that hard.
Get a Cake: Generic Transformations to Password Authenticated Key Exchanges
It's going to get worse as HTTPS everywhere becomes the unchangable default and Google/MS/Apple eventually drop HTTP/1.1 support from their browsers. Without the ability to even make a connection to an IP, not just a domain, without the approval of a third party CA corporation the web will become very much smaller and more easily controlled.
Those are two orthogonal concepts. The temperature has nothing to do with whether it's a lossy compression function.
The problem with CarPlay in my Ioniq 5, as I detailed in my sibling reply to the post you replied to, is that it doesn't inform the car's own nav-based features like the dashboard directions or the HUD navigation arrow. If I use CarPlay nav I simply don't get those.

I think Chevy is going to Android's whole-car auto system, not just Android Auto. In that system phone based nav probably does do things like inform dashboards and HUDs. And I think Apple has a CarPlay version out or coming that has similar capabilities. Only, Chevy and probably any other manufacturer is not going to make a car that wires two systems all the way through the car.

So I think it's not gonna be just Chevy, and since Android has more design wins announced than Apple as well as probably the brighter future outlook for market share (by way of being hedged across multiple sources) I think you might be looking down the barrel of either this standardizes, or Apple's out.
> He advertised that he was donating 10% of its revenue to people affected by terrorist activities in my country (Nigeria)...turns out people fell for the marketing, and he did not donate one dime.

There's a fine line between "marketing" and lying, and this is plainly on the wrong side of it.

In general though, I try to take any claims where "a portion of the proceeds" supposedly funds some charity with a huge grain of salt. It's difficult/impossible to tell how truthful the business is being about the amount donated.

Only if you confine yourself to downtowns. Which is why I said metro areas.

It is a third world country with lots of modern parts. If you don't think Mumbai or Bangalore or modern cities, that just means you have a very different definition of what modern means.
Yes, but it's also something that I have been thinking about why. I hate not knowing why, even if it's for my religion, so if there is something in my religion that I can't explain, I spend time thinking, dissecting, working (and praying in the case of religious things) until I understand the why.

I don't fully understand the why yet, but I do understand a lot of it, enough to be completely confident in this.

I'm working on the rest, and once I do understand it, in a scientific sense, I'll write and release the blog post.

There are certainly a lot of excuses for why nuclear is so expensive. As far as I can tell they are all just that, excuses. Korea is by far the largest producer of nuclear power plants today. They have the scale that people claim is necessary to reduce cost. They have the pro nuclear regulatory environment that would never be politically possible in the states. Nuclear still costs them more than solar and wind.

It certainly should be illegal, but a lot of the comforts of first-world civilization would vanish and the velocity of modern capitalism would grind to a halt, so politically speaking apart from token gestures that don't threaten the status quo that isn't likely to happen.

The difference is one of chemistry, not law. A helpful analogy is to find another pair of drugs that people are more familiar with where the difference is a single methyl group: caffeine and theobromine (the stimulant in chocolate).

Saying that appropriately dosed amphetamine and methamphetamine don't have a "big" difference is like saying appropriately dosed chocolate and coffee don't have a "big" difference. The difference is clearly massive.

But your original assertion is that American far-right movement is being exported to Europe. Now if you are going to stop precisely at the moment when European fascism (which has a big influence on American far right) died down, then obviously that's going to be tautological. So not sure that qualifies as American export to Europe.
It doesn't work like that. It's more like: there's a 250k budget. We got an ex-googler-ex-meta-kid for 200k, so that leaves us 50k for a... Kenya engineer. Then, once both are on-boarded, gee, the Kenya engineer is twice as productive as the googler kid. Jackpot!
