Yeah but it takes quite a success story in IT to have a breakthrough product and not yield under all the millions thrown at you, especially when you know that 'competitors' might try to break your legs all the way if you decide to stay in the race.

It gets tough as the numbers start to get unreal fast. Patagonia and any physical product oriented business has a curve to ride, they grow in percentage not N fold. Someone registers a company and develops new technology, if he has the edge the company worth will skyrocket over night.

Worse, that connector was used on all sorts of things. That same connector was used for power delivery on some computers, midi keyboards, and monitor outputs. People blew up their sewing machine plugging a keyboard into a port. I'm sure there were more uses of that same connector for other things that were electrical incompatible. At least the PS/2 (and ADB) ports were used only for one purpose (PS/2 two - they should have either made mouse and keyboard interchangeable, or made them different, but just keyboard or mouse was a big improvement).

FTX says it will pay back customers..customers will 'eventually be paid in full'
If no one wants to buy/use the things that were designed with only the developers in mind, what’s the point?

A lot of money has been spent, and a lot of companies have shut their doors, because they were so caught up in the cool tech that they never stopped to question if it was something people would actually want… and it turned out the answer was no did.

Every company should be starting with the customer in mind. Making things good for the developers, is also something that should be done with the customer in mind. Happy developers mean a richer ecosystem of apps, which makes the devices more useful, which is good for the customer.
That too....

but more of an object lesson that as the needs of the company change, the board/your co-founders will constantly re-evaluate whether you are still adding value.

The positioning to me (which drifts over time) is less interesting than the higher quality of the discourse.

Granted, this was in a smaller venue, but seeing H.W. actually consider the question on the spot and deliver an on-topic, detailed answer outlining his position was... refreshing.

Presumption that the question is valid and interesting, the asker is to be respected, and supporters of the platform espoused and opponents have good points and should be respected.

Empathetic disagreement is not something you typically see anywhere recently. It's been boiled down to staccato sound bites.
There are 3-4 companies like Invitae (and not 23andMe) that genetic counselors send their tests to for analysis and treatment coordination with the MD.

Like another comment said, I think the DNA data 23andMe gets from their swabs and analysis is likely inferior from a drug-dev standpoint vs. what the pro firms do linked with the genetic counseling teams.

In that light, 23andMe's options don't look good. However, probably good news for the patient. As I was told by a genetic counselor at one of the main hospital systems that do this, a bulk of their work is rolling back expectations from patients who did 23AM first, and then when to a GC.

I don't know why. I guess Zelle is an improvement but moving a semi-significant amount of money quickly can be a difficult task in North America. I also hate the fact that any org can initiate an ACH transaction from your account without you approving the transaction first. It seems rife for abuse and I am not sure why it actually isn't abused more.
I watched Tim Ferriss YouTube on learning Tagalog language in 4 days for an interview in Tagalog.

He had some good pointers and had a memory grandmaster video call with some more. 20min video. https://youtu.be/QkTmAyO_qfE

He has many other videos. Drumming, jujitsu, etc. maybe one of those will apply.

Since this isn’t specific, it’s difficult to give advice. Sounds more like a writing prompt.
If you mean the “analyzing” behavior, the indicator can be clicked on to show what it’s doing. It’s still going character-by-character, but writing code that it executes (or attempts to) to get the contents of a file, the solution for an equation, etc. Possibly an expert model but it seems like it’s just using an “expert prompt” or whatever you want to call it.

I've had this idea that a game could generate unique crafting fields in some way like this. One of the things that I think limits simulation type games is that they are often restricted to real industries and recipes etc., but if they could make up believable fantasy industries, then there could be more variety.

Ahh I see, those hyperlapses look very cool!!

Going back to your first comment, I originally made this as part of an app with an interactive streetview component. I reused the initialization code I had as the base for this. Re-using that code also makes sure the screenshots taken would be close as what you'd see using the embedded streetview (In our project we had a bunch of remote locations without a lot of SV images, so depending on the search radius used when querying for a panorama, we could end up in vastly different places).

However, I realize that I never even considered scraping the public site, which would allow for hiding your identity by not needing an API key. I'll think about this.
nah customers complained all the time. You'd be helping a customer and have 2 other customer waiting, and other things to do including tidying up, cutting the saw, operating the forklift to bring down more product, etc. It was 8 hours of constantly being run around and having customers be frustrated because they were waiting for your help, and couldn't find anyone else, because there was no one else. Sometimes they'd go all the way to the other end of the store to find someone and they'd bring the electrical or plumbing guy over to ask questions about concrete and he'd just tell them to talk to me.

It sounds like you have never worked busy retail, more than anything else. You wouldn't accept your own job being that level of busy dealing with unserved and frustrated customers at that pace.

Such queries are not universally supported, and a program using them has to be prepared to expect a lack of response to the query. (This is one of many issues with such queries.)
This is Phase Change Memory based on "GST467" or 4 parts Germanium (1.3ppm in the earth's crust), 6 parts Antimony (0.2ppm in the earth's crust), and 7 parts Tellurium (0.001ppm in the earth's crust).

I suspect the rarity (and by extension, cost) of Tellurium on earth is going to limit the potential of memory based on this compound.

Not that I disagree, but in my experience the enshittification, or at least a lot of prominent examples are often services that never made money and now have to and ... yeah they can't so it goes bad.

The whole cycle of "free brings in users (and we users LOVE that) --> users bring in investors --> later you have to make money --> change the service to make money and now nobody is happy" is a whole other issue.

Not really; he's hypothesizing a potential draw order, but what I was listing were the possible contents of the urn before any are drawn. Since the contents of the urn aren't ordered, they form a set, not a list, and shuffling elements doesn't add to the list of possibilities.

My current employer and my last were both 25+ year-old quietly successful private tech companies. In both cases there was a strong commitment to product quality in order to maintain our reputation and long-term customer relationships whereas the public companies I worked at were focused on chasing the next quarter to satisfy "the shareholders".

Every once in a while I'm tempted to work for a public company again since I might be able to earn slightly more, but after working for adults for so long it'd be hard to go back to a place where my responsibilities to users and shareholders are misaligned.
.lan.

Please also reserve 'lan' since so many of us running from .local which Apple decided to takeover screwed over. Just reserve that it's for site specific / local / 'internal' use and that no other brilliant **hole can screw up a perfectly good network for another protocol or extension with it.

I don't know about that. IIRC the creation of HoTT was because someone was notified that one of his important papers from earlier in his career had a non-trivial flaw in it.

To be sure, reproduction is a bit easier in mathematics because you normally don't need exotic equipment, just time. However, that doesn't mean that people are necessarily taking the time to double check everything with sufficient rigor.

both android and windows won't allow you to uninstall some applications without command line - try removing edge or your preinstalled bloat from your android phone

+ if you are not using winget or wingetui you are missing out

secondly - microsoft has been removing stuff from the control panel and either moving it to registry only or to the new settings on a random place for quite some time now and figuring out where some items went can be painful

enabling s3 sleep? was only in registry for a while
defering windows feature updates/new windows versions? gpo or registry - is that any better than a command line? autoreboots same thing and many others

also when huge features updates came out couple years ago, some of my settings got reset, so having a script that can return my pc to a desired state is prefferable to fiding all those settings again

I don't understand how this will work.

The "magic", as I understand it, of the 192.x.x.x network is that the Internet "knows" to not route it. Networking isn't my strength, so I don't know where, or what part of the my local network decides that 192.x.x.x can't be routed, and so doesn't. (I guess it's the router at the edge, but I don't know about internal routers.)

But anyway, however it's manifest, the "magic" of it is that 192 is "safe" because, at the assorted gateways that are emplaced on the Internet, that traffic just "stops".

So, how does ".internal" work? I mean, it's just a hostname, and DNS responds to queries about hostnames.

Would it work similarly where the DNS server "knows" where a request came from, and thus, "knows" that "oh this is internal traffic, so if they're asking for an .internal domain name, I can safely respond the appropriate IP"?

Is that how this supposed to work? Is that where the magic happens?

Forward reasoning, dependency-directed backtracking for circuit analysis (1976) [pdf]
Because they use slashes, those are kinda annoying to use in web UIs.

Say, /view/users/jdoe/foo -- is that foo a resource, or a URL my web framework can use to e.g. fetch data & components SPA style?

With a flat /view/user_jdoe/foo, you don't have that source of confusion.
Counterpoint, if TLDs were more limited then having one of those is a license to print money. The existence of more TLDs reduces domain name scarcity and is strictly better for us the users.

Glove80 is smaller than the only alternative that suits me, Kinesis Advantage. Agree even smaller would be nice. There are many options if you don’t require the key well shape or if more DIY kits/production quality are up your alley

Glove80 has hot-swappable tripod mounts, so I attach it to my chair, or I use clamps to attach it to a table, or to short tripods standing on the floor, or to very tiny tripods that can give the keyboards an extreme near-vertical angle on a desktop. Very easy to get an ergo setup going when traveling this way.
> Instructions unclear, and I am dumb.

You're not dumb -- it's not only unclear, but the interface actively suggests the opposite of what you're supposed to do.

One of the best lessons I ever learned was from Don Norman's famous book, The Design of Everyday Things. Which basically teaches you that the user is almost never dumb, but rather human. And that the responsibility of understanding how to interact with an object, or program, always lies with the creator of that object or program. The designer. It's their job to design something so that it teaches you how to use it. (His most quoted example involves how a plate on a door invites you to push it, while a handle invites you to pull -- and this way you'll never try to pull a door that needs to be pushed open, or vice-versa.)

In this case, the interface invites you to drag things among the various pre-existing points, to continue the "constellation". It does nothing whatsoever to suggest that it would make any sense to drag the labels on top of each other. Indeed, previous experience suggests that this would simply lead to overlapping and obscured labels, so we actively avoid it. And the lines that get drawn between nearby points and labels goes even further to suggest that this is a game or experience about connecting things in a graph-like way -- which, once again, overlapping does not fit into conceptually.

I would never have thought to drag things on top of each other if I hadn't come here to the comments.
Sounds like if you stimulate your brain more your brian is less likely to “atrophy”
Yes. You couldn't just assume that a TLD that wasn't being used would forever continue being unused. .local was introduced for an RFC rather than for profit
This makes me wonder if there could be strong enough laws around protecting genetic info (for example penalties that pierce the corporate veil) that those with fiduciary responsibility to the company could argue that destroying the data is really in the shareholders' best interest.

I'm completely uninformed in this area. Is there precedent for anything like this in the modern day?

Moving to a subscription model is largely a symptom of that coasting. They couldn’t consistently come up with compelling reasons to upgrade to new versions of Creative Suite, with users being perfectly happy to run what they had for as many years as possible.

They were always going to hit a ceiling on interesting features to implement, but they could’ve sold new CS versions on improvements in stability, performance, responsiveness, and efficiency (things that users care quite a lot about), but that kind of engineering work doesn’t work well with the cheaper model of continuously adding to the ball of mud.

More context:

"...Seba sees it differently. It’s one thing for Deere to use his data to make a better tractor. But, he said, Deere knows when he’s planting, and he’s convinced the company sells that data to weather companies and commodities traders. Deere denies that it sells aggregated farm data to traders. Nevertheless, it’s the billions of acres of data the company collects that allows it to enter into lucrative business partnerships with complementary companies, such as Dow DuPont, which depends on soil information to make nutrient and seed planting “prescriptions.""
