So when I'm using OpenBSD, I use Firefox exclusively. On my Mac, I use Safari 99% of the time, but I do have Firefox installed and use it for some things, but when I need a Chromium-based browser, I use Vivaldi, instead of Chrome or Brave.

EDIT: It looks some of Vivaldi's source is available FWIW, https://vivaldi.com/source/
> Craigslist? They haven't really changed their core model

For what it's worth, in my local (smaller city, not a tech hub) market, Craigslist is basically dead, killed by Facebook Marketplace; and I'm assuming my market isn't the only such one. So it's possible that they will need to change their model, or at least how they execute upon it.

Funny: Craigslist isn't even loading for me at the moment, and DownDetector shows it's not just me.

Author spends a lot of time complaining about Design Thinking, and worrying about it "infecting" education, but he doesn't actually say what is wrong with it. He quotes a few woolly phrases that look like the introductory sentences in an Overview section, then extrapolates from those as a detailed description of the whole topic. No wonder it looks vapid to him.

I'm not a design expert but AIUI, Design Thinking brings empathy with the user to the forefront of the design process and makes it a first-class factor. My own experience of the outcome of this process (writing software to such designs) is very largely positive.

The think I hate most about eSIM is we kept around the idea of SIM locking (EUICC lock, also referred to as "carrier visibility" or "carrier reveal").

I bought a bunch of refurbished/renewed iPads for my business and 7 of them were EUICC locked to AT&T. You could put any physical SIM in the iPad and it would work but it would not let you use a non-AT&T eSIM. AT&T refused to talk to me unless I had an account with them, I did, and then told me those iPads were not in their system, there was nothing they could do, and I should see about returning them and getting new/replacement ones.

I spent multiple hours on the phone and on their support forums and got nowhere (over the span of 2-3+ weeks). Finally I filed an FCC complaint and the issue was fully resolved in 3 days.

FCC/CFPB complaints are great tools to use and I recommend reaching for them sooner rather than later. I have examples of being jerked around by companies for a period of weeks or longer and then the issue being fully resolved in a matter of days after filing a complaint. It's my new "complain on twitter to get better/faster service".

Great, we already have issues with diffusing responsibility into opaque algorithms, now we've got people cheering a full speed run into it.

We've sure come a long way from "a computer cannot be held accountable, therefore a computer must never make a management decision".

MacOS can be simultaneously "engineered for development" and "a worse container host than a chromebook". They aren't mutually exclusive.
Superconductors are in the name. They're ideal conductors. As a corollary, superconductors coiled into a wire, shaped like an inductor, are also ideal inductors. By ideal, I informally mean nearly perfect in a mathematical sense.

A thin superconductor can carry an almost arbitrary amount of electricity with 0% loss. This is a real-world application already for superconductors, but it requires cooling the entire conductor to liquid helium temperature. (It's not truly limitless - enough current will eventually break down the superconducting effect - but ten billion watts down a 1 mm thick wire is doable.)

Similarly, an inductor made out of a superconductor, that is looped back on itself, can hold a magnetic field indefinitely, with 0% loss. Energy storage.

Also, novel ways of manipulating magnetic fields, and as a consequence of that, novel ways of manipulating radiation that interacts with magnetic fields. Really, anything that needs a strong magnetic field could benefit. Maglev trains. Portable MRI scanners would exist today, if the electromagnet didn't need to be submerged in liquid helium.

Superconducting computer circuits would dissipate no heat other than for the work required to physically change the state of the transistors. Power consumption could decrease by several orders of magnitude. Though to be honest, one day printing room-temperature superconductors lithographically is a rather unlikely prospect. But one can hope.

And some proposed realizations of quantum computing would benefit from small, extremely powerful magnets, while other proposed methods exploit the properties of superconductors directly (Josephson effect).
Thank you for saying it!

Those are some strong opinions of design thinking.

I always thought it was just requirements and design but done by specialists from service design backgrounds. I’ve seen the results of workshops, and although very expensive, are very useful because they put the project focus’s on the users rather than the technology. And, if someone has hired design thinking specialists, then you at least know that the leadership has a commitment to usability and not putting the cart before the horse. For instance, I’ve seen results of design thinking result in drastically reduced savings because they avoided buying technology that they didn’t need.
There is also a ton of really high qualti content. And lots of channels that allow the creator to make a living from it.
In addition to other comments, from an academic perspective, Teams was at least in the pandemic era horrible for meetings and conferences with people from many different institutions: account handling across institutions/installations was atrocious. It seems like it simply was not designed for that use, but then seems to have been heavily marketed to university administrations. For the most part, it seemed very difficult to use an email for login on Teams run by one institution if it had been used for Office365 at any other institution anywhere.

Especially for things hosted by UK universities where it seems like everyone was forced to use Teams, I remember seeing absurd instructions for conference and workshop registrations, like "Please give us an personal email address to use as your login that is not your institutional email address, and that you have never used for any Teams-based conference in the past."

Then actually trying to run conferences on Teams always seemed to work horribly by comparison to other systems. One workshop on Teams I went to (with ~60 people if I recall), for example, couldn't figure out the access controls for screen sharing, and some users would accidentally share their desktops, which they then had trouble stopping. For larger conferences (eg, 100-400 people at a talk), I went to several where, since it seemed that they were already frustrated by Teams but seemed pushed into using it by their university administrations, they would use Teams chats to send out Zoom links.

The whole experience was a mess, and it was largely a mess where it seemed like Teams was being pushed for uses it really wasn't designed for. Slack, on the other hand, didn't seem to push its way into these uses. I've also used Teams things that seem more within its designed use-cases (eg, faculty meetings), and it has been fine, but it generated a terrible reputation by being pushed for everything else in academia.
internet with ads, that you have to pay for, seems to be the endgame
SQUID sensors would be very feasible, with increased sensitivity. I just learned that extremely directional transceivers would be possible due to some weird quantum effects. Probably propulsion would be affected by higher efficiency motors. So it's a huge deal if it's real.
He also doesn't actually describe what it is. I don't think he knows any more than the people he's complaining about.
I don't know if I'd say it's weird, but I'm not sure I get the appeal other than for trying to hyperfocus (and with similar downsides that implies, e.g. very expensive context switching).

I like the desktop metaphor that computers adopted, and one way to use it is to think of different application windows as different paper documents on your meatspace desktop. You could have a rule that only 1 piece of paper is on your desktop at any time, but I find it much easier and more efficient to work with, as needed, two or more pieces of paper on my desktop. When multiple pieces of paper are on my desktop, I can arrange them such that I can easily focus on different papers by only moving my eyes, or, if the papers are relatively far apart, by moving my head and/or the rest of my body a little too.

I personally like the desk organization rule of "1 project/task per desk", i.e. you clear your desk when switching tasks to ensure only relevant things are on your desk / within your visual domain. I use computers to similar effect with different desktops/workspaces.
Fair enough, I was thinking back to the time something similar happened to me "mid-mountain".

This Tesla must've been in one heck of a stop where "hiking wasn’t an option as it was pretty hot and we had no water", lol. Does Tesla make a motocross bike?

> A usable general browser is near impossible to build from scratch.

Modern browsers support a lot of most definitely not modern features. I believe it would be feasible to create an entirely new browser from scratch if those older features were ignored. Take for instance Mozilla's experimental Servo rendering engine and Deno for ECMAScript - these were created in mere years with (relatively) small teams. I would be quite comfortable using a web browser that supported, say, CSS Flexbox and Grid quite well but didn't implement every historical way of centering text on a page.

No, it's not. It's meant to describe three major modern religions with common roots in the ancient near east. These religions have much in common both historically and theologically. The relationship is similar to that of Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism.

thank you for pointing this! just fixed it.
A bus with just 5 people on is already better for the environment than putting those people in cars (1-2 per car), and quickly gets more cost effective. You need a lot less buses than cars to transport the same amount of people.

> Also, when you factor in things like the carbon cost of the driver that is needed for the bus, the fact that buses still operate on a schedule and not on demand (therefore leading to an entire bus with a capacity for 40 people being occupied by one or two), and that on average they're much more expensive to transition to more eco-friendly advancements, I would say busses are way worse than a fully functional sdc environment.

This paragraph is completely false.

There is no reason you cannot have a self driving bus and thus no driver at all.

While a bus on a fixed route will be empty at the end of the route, even in the not very dense suburbs they have a lot more people on it.

A fixed route is an advantage: you can depend on it! You know where it will be at any time and you can plan. Shared flexible routes cannot work - People need to know they will get to where they are going on time and a shared flexible ride must randomly detour to pickup/drop off someone else and then you miss your schedule.

> You could have better and safer bike lanes, slower lanes with with lower speed vehicles that cost ~1k for < 1 mile travel increasing the chances people go and visit nearby businesses

I have no idea what you are saying. People have places to go. They want to get there fast, not slow. People already can bike or walk to close places - that they often drive anyway is proof that speed is important. Your argument is completely in bad faith.

Don't just take my word for it. https://humantransit.org/2019/08/what-is-microtransit-for.ht... https://humantransit.org/2011/03/how-universal-is-transits-g... is from a real expert in the field that explains why you are wrong starting from fundamentals that do not change.
How you imagine this? Police don't have free resources already and it is hard to catch a person throwing a bottle in a river in the moment. Video surveillance and face recognition may work but sounds dystopian.

In my observation a mix of culture and working cleaning services is a better predictor of clean streets than fines. It matters a lot if people want to live in a clean environment or they don't care. I have an empathy gap here and it's hard to understand why but I see that some people either don't mind garbage lying around or too lazy to carry it to a place where it can be disposed (nearest litter bin if they exist in this area or home if not).
Guardrails of LLMs thwarted by appending specific strings to prompts
Yeah, even if I could stomach the crypto BS (I can't) I don't want anything to do with the owner/CEO/whatever his title is.
Before reading the piece I thought you were being dismissive and rude.

But no, it's genuinely unclear. "Customers must think you are superhuman." "Create arbitrary rules and rituals." "Become a caricature of yourself." But mixed in with genuinely good (though bland) advice.

My guess is the piece is self-aware but sincere. "Riding the line," as you say.

I do think there's been a pendulum swing so far AGAINST unattainable expectations and the negatives that come from rockstar mentalities that some have overcorrected. Sincere calls for greatness and achievement can be good, actually. I try to do the "consistent competence" thing but I think I probably should shoot higher, sometimes.
I don't see the problem with using Anytype License instead of AGPL. AGPL allows commercial use as long as the source code is provided, while Anytype disallows commercial use. Other than that it is the same, and is "open source" regardless. As in, OSI doesn't trademark "open source".
That's exactly what a clutch does. They show up in all sorts of places besides the third pedal "clutch" drivers of standard transmissions are familiar with, e.g. in part-time AWD systems, traditional automatic transmissions with planetary gears, torque converters and hybrid transmissions with lockup clutches for efficient cruising, and so on.

>According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), approximately 188,000 passenger vehicles were backing in crashes reported to the police in the United States during 2015…The combination of Rear Vision Camera and Rear Parking Assist reduced backing crash involvement rates by 42%. When Rear Automatic Braking was added to the Rear Vision Camera and Rear Parking Assist, vehicles with all three systems had backing crash involvement rates that were 78% lower than vehicles with none of the systems.[1]

The data would seem to contradict that statement.

> The US has far more innovation than the EU

In what areas? Software? Fraud (including anything from crypto shit through Theranos and Juicero)? Maybe automobiles and space, maybe?

In other areas such as aviation, banking, healthcare, music streaming (did you know that practically most music streaming services outside those created by the giants of Apple, Amazon, Google as an offshoot project are European innovations - Spotify, Deezer, Tidal, Qobuz), maybe edtech and biotech, space and transportation, automobiles etc. European companies out innovate American ones.

Innovation for the sake of innovation isn't cherished in the EU, and of course it's harder to be successful in 27 different small markets than it is in one massive one. Regulations playing a part in possible, but do you have any sources to substantiate your claim it's the primary reason?

I know more than a few. They're guys over 35, upper middle wealthy, type-A personalities who see the internet as a news source, but social media and arguing with people online is something their wives and kids do. They don't work in tech, and made their money in real estate, trades, and then some finance guys. They have serious hobbies like woodworking, sailing, fly fishing, hunting, camping, cars and motorcycles, farming, horses, musicianship, etc. They're doing just fine. I see them at bbqs and pub nights. They're low on the neuroticism and agreeableness scales and don't engage internet culture. Men, basically.

Oh, so my cats are all insanely big cats. I don't mean fat, I mean big. They knock over cat scratchers all the time (and then go on to scratch other things like furniture).

I also wanted a cat scratcher with a perch on top so my oldest can sit at the same height as the dining room table - he likes sitting near me at meals but I also don't want him on the table.

So yeah I needed a cat scratcher with a certain base size and a specific height and have no interest in a woodworking project. Instead I just wanted to pay $50 to have someone else make it.

(The other cat scratchers I buy are $70 a pop so really not a cost issue. At that point you get a cat scratcher that lasts 5+ years, looks nice and is big enough my cats will actually use it)

No, let’s not assume that. $100k sounds like enough but it goes so fast. You’re betting a lot on a hunch.

If you spin your $100k as a founder’s share, it’s maybe less toxic. But investors want to see their money again, and revealing a share sale like this with a straight face is the economic equivalent of your wearing white makeup, a red rubber nose, a checked jacket that’s three sizes too large and clashes with the tie and pants, and size-85 shoes.

As an investor I’m taking a pass for this reason alone if you gave your first 20% away that cheap.

You're still using Brave which can be seen as endorsement of those things by others, including by website operators looking at user agent traffic.
