They kept running editions off the original wood plates but the plates slowly wear and because of that colors changed from edition to edition.

That aside, it struck me this morning that this is the native Mac OS desktop gmail client I have wanted since at least 2008, when I first got a job at a gmail shop (my own email is non-Gmail). In that time, I've tried literally every non-browser client I could get my hands on and none are good. Most are electron-style wrappers or feel decidedly un-Mac-like.

And now, 15 years later, there's an extremely high-quality "Mac-assed" [1] Mac OS client that is everything I've ever wanted. I have to look at my work email multiple times a day, every day of my working life. $50/year to make that a pleasant, productive experience is well worth it in my mind.

The how probably isn't so hard if you are a state actor.

Hey everyone! I'm Jaimin, founder of Reconcile. We're on a mission to help one billion people achieve financial freedom via smart tax optimization.

My personal tax nightmare story is that I racked up a huge tax bill during the pandemic while investing in stocks and crypto. After that, I wanted to make tax optimization more accessible since it's mostly just reserved for the ultra-high net worth folks that can afford professional tax advisors.

We've built out a hybrid human-AI tax platform that's meant to be an end-to-end solution for individuals and business owners. We're looking for early testers to join our initial beta cohort!

In U.S. policy debate, this is also known as “winners win”. In other words, if a resolution passes Congress successfully, the proponents of the policy are more likely to be able to pass another piece of legislation. Whether or not this is actually true in Congress is debatable.

However, there are other systems where winners-win is more clear-cut. For example, college athlete recruits want to go to programs that are already successful (thereby increasing the likelihood that the team will continue to be successful), or F1 teams that do well in the constructors championship get a sizable payout (which helps them to continue winning).
> It's not no-risk, but it's low risk until you start building.

Building is kind of.. the whole point. And risk profiles vary. For example, I'd rather build/invest in a startup rather than buying land where I may or may not be able to build anything profitable over the long term. Development also has a very long horizon, tying up liquidity in the process.

Saying "just buy land bro, making money is ez" seems like a very TikTok Investor kind of take.

I too am working for the Wikimedia Foundation. I have a good example showing how much we run on a budget, to avoid outing someone against their will, I will replace technology terms with letters:

A new employee joined from one of the big tech players. They got hired for a role with X technology. Upon joining the thin team of 4 or 5 persons, including the double hat manager/engineer, the person legitimately though the whole team was SOLELY in charge of said X technology. That is how their previously larger employer operated with multiple such teams scattered around the world. To their demise, the person was now more or less the lone tech lead for X and Y, with a worldwide and leadership responsibility for both. With of course shared responsibility with other tech managed by their teammate.

Thankfully we have grown a little bit since then and the kind of position I described is less of an occurrence nowadays (but still is for some area). That is far from lavish for sure.

> CTRL-f was sadly missing any mention of "money supply", "printing", "interest rates", "ZIRP", or, indeed, any policy intervention made, ever, in the history of man, by policymakers.

Except the largest QE was 2008, 2010, and 2012, which caused... nothing?

Anti-QE people have been claiming that QE causes problems for a decade. Eventually COVID19 causes a problem and the QE people come out of the woodwork saying "I TOLD YA SOOOOO", ignoring COVID19 entirely and trying to pretend that they've been right for a decade all along.

------------------

Policy makers get things wrong on occassion. That's cool. But the policy makers got it more correct than the "anti-QE" guys for the entirety of the 2008 through 2020 timespan. Being wrong once every decade is fine. Its better than being wrong for a whole decade and then pretending that your theories finally became correct due to unrelated factors later.

I don't expect perfection from our policymakers, nor consistency. I recognize that in a democracy, our policy makers change every 4 to 8 years and we contradict ourselves regularly. But overall, their ability to predict the future remains superior over the typical folk who cry about things like ZeroHedge.

> The baseline was chosen because it had good data and was prior to the vast majority of greenhouse gas emissions.

We have data going back literal hundreds of thousands of years via ice cores. Of course if we picked that data the numbers would look incredibly dumb: depending on what 57 year chunk you took as “baseline” at we’d be a delta of anywhere from -2 to 8 degrees, and where exactly on that range we’d fall would vary more or less randomly with the time of the chunk’s start.

We’re looking at the most minuscule (~100yr) chunk of 500,000 year time series and getting worried about its slope. It’s laughable.

> Aiming to say under 5° would be ridiculously dangerous.

Dangerous how? Because that’s the exact temperature range we were at ~0.4mya, and look how well we’re doing now! Civilization and everything.

> Art critic Blake Gopnik, who spent six years of his childhood living at Habitat 67, called the building the “greatest modern sculpture,” adding, to give that comment some weight, “and I’ve seen a lot of sculpture.” For Gopnik, who learned how to ride a bicycle on Habitat’s second floor terrace, the project’s success lies in what he calls its “aesthetic surprise.” Gopnik explains, “When you walk through it, you get a sense of space unfolding around you—vistas open up and get enclosed by concrete.”

That's our stock market though. If Walmart isn't squeezing on costs, then it needs to make that up in gross revenue otherwise the stock will suffer.

Is it possible to be "ethical" in how you define it, when the financial market performance of the company is largely dependent on this?
This is just BS. The amount of desalinated water is completely dwarfed by normal evaporation. If we replace _all_ the water used in agriculture by desalinated water, we won't even make a dent in the global saltwater balance.

Most are at risk of extinction.

"half of the languages spoken today have fewer than 10,000 speakers and that a quarter have fewer than 1,000 speakers" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_death).

"Today, on average, we lose one language in the world every six weeks. There are approximately 6800 languages. But four percent of the population speaks 96 percent of the languages, and 96 percent of the population speaks four percent of the languages. These four percent are spoken by large language groups and are therefore not at risk. But 96 percent of the languages we know are more or less at risk. You have to treat them like extinct species." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_preservation).

"Over the past century alone, around 400 languages – about one every three months – have gone extinct, and most linguists estimate that 50% of the world’s remaining 6,500 languages will be gone by the end of this century (some put that figure as high as 90%, however). Today, the top ten languages in the world claim around half of the world’s population." (https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20140606-why-we-must-save...).

>In this keynote and Q&A, Yuval Noah Harari summarizes and speculates on 'AI and the future of humanity'. There are a number of questions related to this discussion, including: "In what ways will AI affect how we shape culture? What threat is posed to humanity when AI masters human intimacy? Is AI the end of human history? Will ordinary individuals be able to produce powerful AI tools of their own? How do we regulate AI?"
personally, i doubt this to be true. the voting masses are by and large not that smart on issues like this. granting access to personal data in order to receive promotional information has been accepted and liked by a large percentage of the masses. if not liked, then tolerated. if not tolerated, then willfully ignored.

if the argument is to get discounts on retail products/services, then of course the "think of the children" or "but terrorists" will work on them as well.

putting that much decision making in the hands of the voting public is always a scary idea, and never a sure thing.

You could say the same for human perception, though. We don't actually "see" what our brain thinks we see, our brain fills in the image. Nonetheless, it doesn't stop us from having and using our slightly-inaccurate world-model based on this info. Also, we can often infer our faulty perceptions by comparative methods like "banana for scale" or looking for conflicts and contradictions.

> they need to keep earning your money a little at a time

So release new products or paid updates, the way everyone did before subs.

> A one-time unlock front-loads 100% of revenue

Also known as "buying", which is a thing

> making all maintenance work have negative ROI unless the app experiences constant, consistent growth forever

Unless you release paid updates, which is what a number of developers do.

> Eventually that ceiling will be hit, and the app's revenue could drop to effectively zero, even if a million users count on it daily.

So don't put all your eggs in one basket. Have different products. Explore different things. You're essentially asking to be rewarded for stagnation here.

Subscriptions are about (1) being paid for work you didn't do, since you get paid whether you did anything or not; (2) disrespecting my choice as a consumer, since maybe I don't feel I need any updates and I don't want to pay for them, and (3) encouraging bloat, since there's more pressure to pack in needless features just so you can justify demanding payment every month.

You're basically saying "I need regular handouts because I couldn't make money otherwise." That's a problem with your business plan, and it doesn't justify demanding money for work you didn't do, or requiring me to pay for things I don't need.

I'll agree with you on one thing: years of free or artificially cheap software have conditioned people to not want to pay a lot for software. I always thought $0.99 per app was ridiculously low. I don't have a problem paying tens or even hundreds of dollars for good, powerful software, but I want to own it. If I'm going back through old files a decade or two from now, as a lot of us do, I want to be able to open them. And I don't want to have every one of my apps draining my bank account bit by bit.

If you want to offer a subscription for people who want every update you release, fine. At least they're getting something. But the fairer model is what a number of developers are doing: more money upfront, which includes a lifetime license and one year of updates (which is nice, but I would understand if they didn't include it).

There's a reason why so many people despise subscriptions, and why I doubt that model—while it seems to be the fad now—will ever be normalized. Most of us can't afford it, it denies us long-term access to our own content, and we know on a basic level that it's wrong.

I love the irony of Fergal Reid saying that other people are getting things wrong, while thinking it is possible to fill a bucket half full of "superglue fresh from the tubes." Nobody is going to half-fill a bucket that can hold multiple apples with that much superglue. It would cost too much, it would smell too bad, and it would dry before getting the bucket close to half full.

He accidentally points out the biggest problem with GPT AIs: they believe what people posted online, which is partly made-up nonsense. It is hilarious that he things that cartoon prank would work. Anyone pushing on the door will notice it does not want to open due to the weight of the bucket. The bucket will rarely hit them, and will never land over their head. If it does hit them, it will leave them bleeding. Head wounds bleed a lot.

If you disagree with me, try even the water-bucket-over-a-door version of the prank. Nobody will fall for it, but if they do, they will be injured by the bucket.

This may shed some light on their thinking: https://collider.com/disney-plus-hulu-content-purge/:

> Unfortunately, Disney is preparing to make many movies and TV shows inaccessible. During the meeting, CFO Christine McCarthy says the company “will be removing certain content from our streaming platforms and currently expect to take an impairment charge of approximately $1.5 to $1.8 billion.” An impairment charge is used by a company to get rid of unprofitable products, taking them out of the market for good. It’s a process similar to what Warner Bros. Discovery did with Batgirl and other Max productions, which risk never being available to the public. So, while the strategy might make sense for executives that ignore the artistic value of films and TV shows, the content purge means many productions could be lost forever.

IIRC, Batgirl was a fully completed movie that was figuratively destroyed to take a tax write-off.
