I figured it was more software. In a filing with the state government of California, manufacturer ABB said that they repair 75% of charger faults remotely, which means their software must be garbage. If it was hardware, wouldn't they need to fix it in the field?
That's understood. That market is decreasing rapidly tear over year. In addition, casual gaming on PC is a very small market, and laptops aren't equipped to be good at mobile inputs. It's really unlikely that they will be able to succeed at courting mobile gamers.

If Android had continuous cloud saves, a centralized ID for every game, achievements, cross device play, standardized keyboard and touchpad controls, this would be a much easier sell. They'd be like GamePass. This is unlikely to get support and be delightful.

This is life though, that spillover doesn't disappear when you're an adult. You will always be subject to someone else's dysfunctional life unless you isolate yourself from society completely.

We need to have structures that can address this behavior in a way that fosters societal integration. This "spillover" might not be a problem given proper staffing... but a 1:25 ratio is never enough to handle problems and never will be.

you are only counting the human labour involved in the creation of value.

what about the capital?

Would you, as a hired gold miner, be able to accept zero pay for your work, until the gold is sold (then you got the full price of the sold gold)? What if you starved between the time you mined it, and the time it takes to sell? And how would you have gotten the equipment to do the mining in the first place, let alone the ownership of the mine.

Large scale construction is mainly about one thing: winning projects that you can deliver cheaper than what you won the bid for.

If you can help construction companies winning the right projects, you’ll be very useful.

Related only tangentially. Doctor recommended a vitamin D supplement. Couple years later after terrible acid reflux, I eliminate prescribed medication X which solves 80% of reflux symptoms and pain. After self testing the remaining 20% of symptoms were caused by the vitamin D gummy supplement, tomatoes, and onions.

So yeah vitamin d might help on one hand, but cause it’s own issues in different areas.

No more vitamins for me. Better to eat well and get the occasional bit of Sun.

It’s really hard to claim price fixing when occupancy rates have been 98% or higher for decades, as is the case of nearly all coastal cities in the US. And I have first hand experience with them dropping prices when demand drops (I literally had my renewal rent drop when there was a short downturn). They’re just a dynamic pricing algorithm, they have no power over supply and demand. And it’s kinda annoying to see this idea trotted out when we obviously have a supply problem.
I hated the transition to point and click, because it turned into "hunt for the right pixel" -- with text based games you generally only needed to be in the vicinity of the object you were trying to manipulate.
Complete armchair analysis but I'd have thought this is definitely more about empathy than viewing oneself as a thief? I imagine a lot of people would look at a lost $1000 and think "I'd be devastated if I lost that!", and therefore put the effort into returning it. But I have to admit that if I found a wallet that only had $10 in, I wouldn't keep it but I would be a lot more lazy about returning it because "I can't really be arsed and he's probably not missing it much"

In terms of "viewing oneself as a thief", I feel like I would do that even if I kept the $10 wallet, though I guess maybe I would feel like more of one the higher the amount is
The one does not exclude the other.
In this case your perception is very different from mine.

The recipes appear the same but there's subtle differences. Exactly the situation in real life and they chose, probably knowingly, the one food that's very controversial and every nation around claims their recipe is the best.

Ćevapi -> ćevapčići -> mici (Romanian). I can understand Kay and Peele's sketch because I feel exactly the same looking over the Bosnian / Serbian recipe and it's nothing nationalistic here. Only a lot of "chef" pride: we got the best recipe in town, everyone else is subpar. Like what do they think, eat it with onion and cream? Disgusting! Proper way to eat mici in order to savor their flavor is with just a little bread and mustard: https://i0.wp.com/sunt-sanatos.ro/wp-content/uploads/2020/05...

You can eat them with fries, salad or what else but you're effectively trashing the effort of the cook. Like ordering an expensive and rare Kopi Luwak coffee and drowning it with sugar and milk and ordering a cola on the side to add insult to injury, I guarantee that the barista will smack you in the head if you do that.

Or, more likely, if people no longer need to work they no longer provide utility and are dead weight that needs to go.

That ship has sailed quite a while ago.

If we want our text to be invisible to AI, seems we need to keep it private, either only local, or behind a connected but gated online community. Or publish it only on paper.

Are there enough people who don't want to train an AI with their online musings that they'll put up with a members-only media? Those restrictions are ostensibly why Musk is restricting Twitter to rate limits and must-sign-in. Will it work?

>So no separate governance/board of governors

I'm struggling to think of any company, anywhere, that has that kind of arrangement after an acquisition. Can you point one out?

>Some services not merged (yet).

No services have been merged as far as I know, other than the ones that are literally impossible to not merge, such as the employee stock purchase plan. Please do not twist what I said.

Health insurance is separate, 401k is separate, IT systems are separate. As far as I know the expense system is separate (I haven't needed to use it in years, and I'm on vacation so I can't check).

>Redundancies in a landscape that is changing.

What is even the point of saying this? You asked if there was separation and then dismiss evidence of separation as "redundancies" [that won't last]. I can't predict the future, but the way HN talks about Red Hat you would think the entity known as Red Hat no longer exists (or only barely so). The separation has remained constant for 4 years so far. Not sure what else to say.

>> I would not want to live in a house whose builders took an “innovative” approach to dealing with “regulation”. Building codes are often written in blood.

Not everyone is so rich. People should have the choice about whether or not they want an unnecessarily expensive house. Regulations assume one size fits all and that everyone wants the same thing This isn't true. and trying to outlaw poverty doesn't work, it just makes things worse.

I wouldn't want to live in a house that was unnecessarily complicated to point of doubling it's cost just because of endless regulations forced vast increases in costs. You should see one of the links shared above: it talks a great deal about what's driving the increased costs in housing and it's all to do with increased building complexity, much driven by regulation.

> Choosing to enjoy life today instead of waiting for tomorrow for that enjoyment isn't a failure, it's a choice. It comes with risk and tradeoffs.

100% this. It's not as black or white as people make it.

That being said, there is some level of diminishing returns for how much enjoyment you can get from something (e.g. eating), and how much of a tradeoff (e.g. gaining weight). You can maximize it (be selective in which foods you really like - and the people you want to be around) and minimize the tradeoffs (eating in a day 2 meals instead of 3). That's if you want to take a sabbatical and maximize the enjoyment out of life. If you want to grind, focus on yourself, etc and push yourself to the limits - you need to be outside that comfort zone. You spend more time putting yourself in uncomfortable situations at the cost of spending less time with friends and family.

Life is all about balance.

Sometimes you take high risks and push yourself further

Sometimes you take low risks and enjoy the benefits from the work you put in

With every high comes lows

All good things come to an end

Puberty is an incredibly complicated process, involving innumerable intertwined signaling pathways, gene expression changes, physical and mental changes, etc. We are only beginning to understand it all; to think we can just "pause" it like an MP3 player is the height of hubris. These experimental treatments have many potential negative side effects, including osteoporosis and infertility. Teenagers who feel insecure about their bodies (which is totally normal at that age) are being pressured and induced into potentially destroying their future at an age where they are not mentally mature to make these permanent life-altering decisions. Many will sorely regret it, some will even take their own lives. A tragedy in the making
> Teaching is not nearly as hard as you lay it out to be.

> Our kids are in private school now because our public school is a dumpster fire of bad teachers and admins. The private school teachers don’t get paid a lot but they are valued and highly motivated to actually reach kids. The difference is astounding.

This is exactly what I'm talking about. You have N=1 child, and you extrapolate everything from that one child, especially how to teach all children. Your fifth grader is in fifth grader for a single year, and so your experience on fifth graders is limited to that. The teacher teaches 20-30+ new fifth graders every year, for decades, and has a wide range of experience.

I'm sure your fifth grader is very smart and talented. To be learning Latin in 5th grade, they must be. And so what has happened to their old classroom at public school? That classroom is now absent one of the brightest, most engaged members of that community. I'm not saying you were wrong to change schools, that was a good move for you. But for the teacher, you made their job actually harder. And think about what happens when all the top students sort themselves into the top private schools. Where does that leave the public classroom?

This is why your experience was night and day. Take all the top students and put them in a room together, and the learning happens almost automatically. It's like magic. Take all the bottom performers and put them in a room together, and it's like pulling teeth. It's torture.

So yeah, in some sense you're right. Teaching people who want to learn isn't all that hard. It's actually a lot of fun! But that's not all there is to teaching, and so I would implore you to maybe adjust your perspective to account for this.
Good point. Thing is, most people get their e-books from Amazon which has a history of harsh DRM restrictions and removing them from libraries when licensing issues arise. I fully support DRM-free ebooks. That is part of the reason why I am working on my e-reader...once I am done I plan on writing a book repository software to work with it to make getting e-books easier. However the fact of the matter is that people who buy them DRM-free are a minority. The majority of people prefer the convenience of just downloading from Amazon over grabbing one from a DRM free store and porting it to their e-reader of choice.

My complaints about DRM aside, my biggest problem with OPs article on e-books is thinking that one is "superior" to another, when different people get different formats for different reasons. Some may like the idea of being able to carry tons of books around with them on a tablet, or being able to search text. Others might dislike these features, and prefer physically turning pages. Neither is "better" than the other, and I dislike people that DO think one or the other is inherently superior for whatever reasons.

Classical action potentials are just one mechanism of INTRAcellular communication - You could think of it as a special case of signaling via chemical concentration, where the chemical is cations and the propagation is faster+more directed than diffusion. INTERcellular signaling is only rarely mediated directly by voltage. Also, action potentials are most "useful" for propagating a signal rapidly over a long distance - It kind of accelerates and error-corrects (= reverses diffusive broadening) voltage signals down a linear path. Action potentials are so well known mostly because they show up in stuff that's easy to observe (long motor neurons) and they're easy to quantify

Somewhat related, there is a roughly inverse correlation between neuron count and "computational power per neuron", "older and simpler" critters' neurons are more likely to be "less specialized" and more likely to use hundreds of different chemicals for transmitting intercellular signals, while "newer and more advanced" critters' neurons are more likely to be "specialized" and use just one chemical for transmitting intercellular signals

You know full well Steam's library is not at all comparable to what's available on mobile. There are thousands of quality games on Steam. How many mobile games are out there that are quality crafted experiences, and not just endless grinding to squeeze as much money as possible out of the user?

I recall seeing a handful come out ~10 years ago, like The Room and Monument Valley. These days the best ones to come out are PC/console games that just so happened to get mobile ports like Papers Please or Slay the Spire.

Everything you wrote here resonates pretty deeply. And as a child of fundamental religion, these judgements were not just social, but existential.

My path to something better has been Sam Harris’ Waking Up app, as well as exploring the Dzogchen analytical framework for exploring the ways we constantly engage in this labeling/judging was mind bending and eye opening (a guy named James Low does a talk titled “Everything as it is” that unlocked some things in my brain).

I feel the same way about this - it’s a gift. Nearing 40 and experiencing relief from lifelong struggles with painful patterns of thought for the first time. These are ideas worth exploring, and are all solidly grounded in rational thought, which was something I mistakenly thought I’d have to leave behind to explore this kind of contemplative path.
> The police have maintained that the shooting was an act of self-defense, as they argue that Merzouk was driving towards the officer. However, since the video was released, this claim has faced significant criticism.

So if this video didn't exist, which the police didn't make and might not have released if they did, what then?

To say the system is working is a horrible thing to say in light of that. How many homicides happened in a similar way with no video by third parties? We both know that we both don't know, by definition. And it's a privilege to not be held awake by that question, to not live with that fear in the back of your head 24/7.
