I am not confused. You're engaged with the particulars, whereas my post is mostly about the Zout == Zin, and not specifically about headphones.

> Why are you even considering the case of a zero Ohm load with a 16 Ohm source impedance?

For completeness of the analysis. If we hold Zout constant, and likewise the output voltage of the voltage source, and consider a Zin of zero, in that case, power transfer is mimimal (zero). Likewise power transfer goes to zero for large Zin. In between those is the Zout = Zin point where the maximum transfer is obtained by the load from the source. This is part of explaining of what is Zout = Zin about; what is maximized.

For instance consider a R1 resistor in series with a battery. You may not change the battery or R1. For what value of R2 can you get R2 to dissipate the most power? The solution is R2 = R1.

It is useful to think about what happens if we make R2 zero; why wouldn't we consider it. A certain current will flow through a zero ohm R2, but it will not be dissipating any power. From there as we increase R1, the power dissipation curve rises. At R1 = R2, it turns around, and then converges to zero as R1 grows larger.

He's explicitly not an AI doomer. He says that he disagrees with Yudkowsky and thinks superintelligence will be fine if we're careful. Curiously he never submits his reasoning for critique, it's always just an assertion given in softball interviews.
Trust and personal brand will have a bigger role to play in the future. That goes for businesses as well.

We humans are not really good at processing a lot of information - and that's what this is about. An overflow of information, choices and products. Everyone is trying to sell something.

So building a brand that people can trust and follow makes things easier. Apple is a great example of that.

> 2. Simple to install

> Infrared fabric looks like a roll of slightly stiff wallpaper. It’s essentially a graphene sandwich, a thin film of carbon between two sheets of paper that conducts low voltage electricity and emits infrared heat, like the sun, but without the light or harmful ultraviolet.

> A room’s ceiling area emits the right amount of heat for a room, making installation very simple in any property, irrespective of its construction, shape or size. It’s little more than a wallpapering job with a click together wiring connection. [...]

> 3. Affordable heat

> Infrared fabric is affordable to install and maintain due to its simplicity with a total cost of around £100 per sq metre for a full system. And it’s quite indestructible – it can have holes cut out of it and can get wet in floods without any danger to occupants or damage to the material. It’s also affordable to run.

This is why zoning reform should be coupled with a Land Value Tax
Has the author lived in Berkeley?

I have, I don't think upzoning can fix it. It's a small community tucked up against the hills. New construction in the hills is just setting the stage for the next devastating fire. Closer to the bay, it's already pretty dense. This would do a lot of good in Emeryville and Oakland, but it's not like Berkeley is suburban sprawl like over the hills in the rest of Alameda...

Berkeley needs to get rid of rent control and focus on cleaning up their streets (literally, garbage is just everywhere) before worrying about fitting more people into such a tiny area. People are already packed in like sardines.

> Seems like GPT4 via the API is even less nerfed (my impression). More expensive though, obivously.

Not that obvious. If I remember correctly the last model they were still testing was $10/1M_tokens input $30/1M_tokens output. 1M is about all Harry Potter books. ChatGPT Pro is $20/month. Do you really type in one Harry Potter book every month? It took ms. Rowling about a year, she is professional, you know. For heavy users GPT Pro may be cheaper, but for most API is a good option. Not as convenient, and long dialogs may add up. It costs nothing if not used.
I know I said this in another thread but all zoning reform should really be coupled with a Land Value Tax

That would encourage development and encourage making additional reforms to accommodate any unseen / unaddressed issues with the reform

Which is not to say SF shouldn’t build, but Austin is not a useful model.

> Yeah they are. For one, you can bypass in-app billing altogether with third party app stores and side-loading

And yet no major developer does it. Why not? You think getting users to use a third party App Store would be easier on conversions than a PWA if they were good enough?

> Not sure what "neither of those" refers to, if you're talking about Instagram and Threads avoiding the Apple tax, they do so via ads, but Apple is going after that as well.

If you buy in the app yes they want their cut. Facebook gets to charge the difference. This does not preclude Facebook from selling the same thing outside of the App Store.

> Most SaaS products that charge a fee to consumers do get hit by the Apple tax. Most services don't have the mainstream familiarity like Netflix and Amazon do to hide billing from the app

SaaS apps are mostly B2B and involve contracts with the business where they just surface functionality through the App Store. I’ve worked for four SaaS providers that have Android and iPhone apps and none of them did there six figure contracts through the App Store.

> I feel like I'm repeating myself: because Android is the smaller platform in terms of revenue and therefore the ROI on moving to web just for Android is not great.

People have different expectations for games. There aren’t any good cross platform frameworks that give you a completely native like experience on your platform / both Google and Facebook explicitly moved away from cross platform frameworks because they weren’t good enough.

My neighbors bought their house in 1975, pay $3k in property taxes. I pay 9k in property taxes. If I bought today I'd pay 17k.

I will not get a larger house because my property taxes would triple if I wanted another bedroom. A marginally larger house is not worth the marginal cost to move.

And with my 2.8% refinanced mortgage and 60% equity, and current rates today, there's no chance I'd sell.

It's a dream of mine to build a custom home, I can afford it, but I'm not willing to put up with a multi year struggle to get a house approved.
This is true for in memory data as well. Object oriented programming is great for some problems, but it's also limiting the way we think about data by putting it close to the code operating on it. ORMs do the same to databases by pretending that rows are objects when that's only one way of modeling your problem.
"Rectifying the situation with authoritarianism in that part of the world" was not the committee's job. Their job was something much simpler: to conduct the awards with integrity.

If some external actor (say the Chinese government) makes that impossible then you cancel the awards. This comes down to McCarty and the people under him not upholding the values of the WSFS and appropriately they have now all been censured or sacked.

This could have been handled much much better and while it probably looked very scary and hard to an amateur, you would think the people at this level of authority in the organization would not be amateurs. The best way for things to go down probably would have been for the committee to engage early and aggressively with Chinese authorities, state their commitment to free speech assertively, make it clear that they were going to give awards to Chinese political dissidents, and then when the Chinese responded with "you're not going to get a permit for that" or whatever other signal emerged that respecting the Hugo's principles was a no-go in China, you make that information public and you cancel the awards. If it happens early enough you move the venue, if it happens too late in the game maybe you have to do them online or something. All better options than compromising the awards. Yeah the members who chose Chengdu are not going to be happy but that's better than EVERYONE losing respect for you and that's also why you engage with Chinese authorities in good faith until they admit that this thing is gonna be a no-go... let China defend its own policies don't do it for them.

> If I'm messing with my computer during a meeting then the meeting probably didn't require me to be physically present.

I was making the assumption that presentations were excluded (and confusing the issue). A meeting is dynamic between individuals. Relying solely on what you can recall is less efficient than using a device to assist, plain and simple.

If there is any value, at all, in a face to face meeting, then a device can only enhance it. If there is no value, then that consideration has no place in the discussion about how to have the most productive face to face.

So everyone posing this question just gets "The mob voted China, so China it must be" and that's all well and good. Here's a better question: Why take on the challenge of organizing the awards/con in China if you oppose censorship? All these people resigned from posts, but it feels like a lack of forsight IMO (though, of course, hindsight is 50/50).

If I was tasked with trying to balance a LITERARY award going off as intended with massive concerns about the host nation's reaction, at a certain point I might just say "I could go do anything else with my life instead" and let someone who's more pro-censorship take over. IDK, I have no aspirations to do great/important things, only things I can defend to myself, so maybe others have a harder time walking away from event organizing than I do.

There was a major environmentalist and neighborhood preservationist movement in California during the 1960s and 1970s that helped fuel anti-growth measures. While they weren't strictly leftist (there are right-wing slow- and anti-growth advocates), they did complement the views of the New Left, which embraced environmentalism and came out of the counter-cultural movement of the 1960s. The San Francisco freeway revolts of 1959 and 1964 were early examples of this (https://www.cahighways.org/maps-sf-fwy.html). Consider folk songs like "Big Yellow Taxi" (1970) from Joni Mitchell with the famous lyrics "they paved paradise and put up a parking lot." Such sentiments resonated among many Californians and was especially popular along the coast. These sentiments helped lead to anti-growth measures taking effect throughout the state, especially in the coastal areas. For example, San Jose during the 1950s and 1960s undergone a campaign of dramatic expansion throughout Santa Clara Valley, even reaching Coyote Valley (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A._P._Hamann), but this growth was curtailed in the 1970s and San Jose has not expanded beyond its boundaries. Santa Cruz also took on an anti-growth attitude in the 1970s.

While not all anti-growth sentiment is left-wing (there are some right-leaning areas of California, particularly in the Central Valley and the Sierra Nevada foothills, that also have slow-growth or no-growth policies for maintaining "quality of life" and "rural character"), much of the anti-growth sentiment along the coast traditionally had an environmentalist and grassroots community preservationist flavor to it, with opposition to "developers" who threaten it.
