I worked at WebTV not long after the acquisition. I was always impressed with the amount of capability they were able to extract out of such minimalist hardware. Even for their time they had a slow CPU and tiny amount of RAM but managed to have a bespoke UX that was even capable of rendering Flash-based sites.

Even in the late 90s there was a community of WebTV hackers. One thing people focused on was the “tricks menu”[1] that required typing in a password to get into it. There were all kinds of conspiracy theories about what the codes “meant”. The reality was they were just chosen to be something easy to remember that could be typed with only one’s left hand on those IR keyboards.

> Evidence for 130 vaccinations in a 9 month period was collected by the public prosecutor of Magdeburg, Germany, who opened an investigation of this case with the allegation of fraud, but criminal charges were not filed.

Given the amount of information they gathered about him, it seems likely that if he was doing something illegal, they would have worked it out and charged him, I guess? It seems like an odd thing to do for “personal reasons” as they say in the paper. But the pandemic was a weird event for everybody, maybe it induced odd behavior or something like that. It is hard to say.
You wrote that back in 2015. What, in your experience, has changed since then? 2021 would've probably, I'm guessing, been a lot more favorable for founders, but 2022/23/24 is likely a lot less favorable.

Your timing is wrong here, which breaks your calculations. I read some other articles that said FanDuel got $75 million in 2014 and $275 million in 2015, and then they sold in 2018, so not sure where you're getting your "9 years" from.

“Intuition that’s based on Earth is now a liability,” Dr. Metzger said. He gave the example of trying to push over the refrigerator in your kitchen. “It’s so heavy that a slight push is not going to push it over.” But you replace it with a piece of Styrofoam in the shape of a refrigerator, mimicking the weight of a real refrigerator in lunar gravity, “then a very light push will push it over.”

Perhaps I got lost but I am discussing your original statement of “using the patients' symptoms and objective data may actually outperform current medical standards” which relates to the model predictions/inference not training.

In this context we are talking about a pain predictor from an xray which is neat but not the point of KL grading.

KL is a system to grade severity of osteoarthritis on radiographs (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4925407/) and not a threshold for surgery or predictor of symptoms.

The comparator, current medical standards you reference, would be a model outperforming surgeon assessment in conjunction with radiographic findings. Not the predictive value of KL grade.

Like many jazz albums of its era, this one uses a pretty typical standard jazz sort of formula, to wit, roughly[0]

- The whole ensemble plays an arrangement of the melody of the tune

- After playing the melody through, the group jumps into a series of alternating solos, in which each band member improvises new melodic ideas on top of the chord progression of the original melody

- After the solos are done, the original melody is returned to, either in full or an part, to recapitulate the initial theme and bring the performance to a conclusion

Do this (more or less) for each track on the album.

It's really not necessarily obvious at first. It can help to follow along with sheet music.

But what is the genius? Or, how is this particular jazz album more genius than another? Say, how is it more genius than "Relaxin' with the Miles Davis Quintet" which was recorded earlier (and also very good)? I think a lot of it is the particular ensemble on this record. Miles brought together a lot of truly exceptional musicians, and they all brought their own bit of genius to their own performance.

If you have a jazz performance with a great trumpeter, paired with an okay pianist, an okay drummer, and an okay bassist, then the whole performance likely won't be genius. But if you pair a genius trumpeter with a genius pianist, a genius drummer, etc., then you'll likely get better results. Especially if they are all kind of genius in the same direction.

On top of that, this particular album was exploring a new compositional style that emphasized modal composition rather than the more typical dominaint-tonic-oriented composition. There was a freshness to it, both for listeners at the time, and for the players themselves. They were exploring this sort of sound for the first time, and were enjoying it, bringing that mentality to how they performed.

[0] Roughly indeed! I don't remember offhand if every track on Kind of Blue follows this exactly.

I don't know, maybe they just gave him a break on the charges in exchange for cooperating with the study.

Indeed, I would say Barry Harris's music is characterized by a complete rejection of the George Russell legacy. Barry Harris's music is sort of like what jazz would have been like if _Kind of Blue_ had never happened.

The zephyrus g14 2023 should be in the same ballpark https://www.bestbuy.com/site/asus-rog-zephyrus-g14-14-165hz-...

The 2023 version is made from magnesium alloy with plastic at the back while the macbook is unibody aluminium.

The 2024 version is aluminium unibody like the macbook and the new speakers are nearly as good as macbook ones from the reviews I have read. However I have only been able to find the 4070 model which is much more expensive than the macbook. There is also the XPS 14 but it is also more expensive than the macbook

Edit :- Found a 4060 model of the g14 https://www.bestbuy.com/site/asus-rog-zephyrus-g14-2024-14-o...

If you get the m3 air with 16gb ram and 512gb ssd the g14 is 100 dollars more expensive but the price will probably drop to lower than the macbook in sales
Not surprising. Framework has a wildly different business model than mainstream computer manufacturers.

And if we re-address the "999 for a laptop with 8 gbs of ram in 2024" comment above, it is worth noting that the Framework 13 also starts with 8GB of RAM at $1049.

Eh. Let the market decide. Yes Tesla overdid the touch controls - but they were also the first company to put a touch screen that isn’t awful into a car. Yes, removing the stalks a going too far imo, but I can’t imagine how narrow my awareness of the world must be for that to register outrage.

I almost got hit by a porche 911 gt2 today. That car is completely mechanical - but it was being driven by an aggressive idiot; who gives a crap what the wiper button looks like. The controls haptic feedback must be at least on the 20 thousandth page of important things about a car.

The market doesn’t solve all problems - but if the touch controls are so awful, there are only two answer: either they’re not that awful, or tons of people are idiots and you’re really smart. You know, the fount of all bad legislation.
Cool, I worked on Network Computer that had a similar purpose but never reached comparative market success of WebTV. I guess ChromeOS is the modern successor of both.

Thanks for that link, which has images. Jesus, the pre-2024 horn is insane. It's one tiny button among many on the right side (of that stupid yoke, but I digress...) The whole point of having the horn in the middle of the steering wheel is you can just mash it with your palm, no need to hunt for anything.

Most of the modern steering systems are just hydraulic or electronic power steering which boosts your input with a hydraulic or electric assist motor. You're still moving the mechanical linkage at any time you're steering, it's just that when the car is off the assist motor is disabled and because modern cars have massive tire contract patches, huge weights, and a lot more caster compared to yesteryear, it's damn near impossible to turn the wheels when the car is off and not moving. If you simply disabled the assist, started the car, and let it roll, you would find that it is only maybe 1.5 times harder to turn the wheel than a classic car with skinny tires and larger steering wheels and such. You're still fully controlling the direction the wheels are turned in said systems, the assist motor simply adds force.

This sort thing is uncommon only in that there was eventually a high dollar liquidity event. When negotiating offers, I always try to get some idea of the financing and the liquidation preferences, if only so I can get some idea of what we'd have to pull in for shares to be "in the money" and quite often the number would be something insane like this. You just value the shares at zero. :/

I actually now think that Miles's best work was his early stuff, before _Kind of Blue_, but that has to do with changes in my general preferences around jazz.
Well, yes, that's the main reason - it's cheaper.

There are other reasons of course - planned obsolesence is a big one. Why would they want cars to work after the primary owner is done with it? With software-everything they can lock the car to the first 3 or 4 owners, and then remotely kill it.

It doesn't even have to be actively disabled, just stop providing the replacement head unit as a part because "we don't have that software anymore".
Seems heart disease is the leading cause of death in Germany so it's not the dumbest bet, despite the intended premise.

Fancier power steering systems basically fully disengage at speed because you don’t need them; they’re for moving the wheels when you’re stopped or nearly so.
I feel like the key is 1) don’t count on your options being worth anything at all, and 2) work for savvy founders that know how to get the employees taken care of. This means never taking more money than they need, not giving away multipliers, giving non-negligible percentages to employees, and focusing on making the business actually have intrinsic value instead of letting “how much can we raise” drive their sense of value.

I feel like a lot of people (founders included) buy into the idea that the VCs should be able to walk in and screw everyone out of their equity because they hold all the cards. If you work for founders that believe this, you will definitely get screwed, partially because the founders will believe screwing you is just part of the game.
it looks like bi-modal distribution of compensation in tech, where there are tech startups paying one amount and options, and FAANG paying another amount plus liquid shares

but crypto organizations have added another wrench for more than half a decade, leaving the other startups aside, they are startups paying one amount, and skipping the options and paying their employees RSUs of their liquid crypto tokens, competing directly with FAANGs on compensation as employees can sell those tokens just as - or even more easily - than they can sell shares in a brokerage account

I'm saying it as if its news because the crowd here relies on people they respect saying the same thing to believe it in the absence of public and common knowledge, and that likely hasn't happened in the topic of anything crypto/web3 industry here

I stepped out of investing about two years ago because i couldn’t stomach the persistent narcissistic greed dressed up as virtue once I saw it for what it was.

The last I saw it was just as bad and frankly getting worse for founders, as investors pulled back when the Fed moved on interest rates.

Basically everyone just stopped taking risk except for the giant institutional funds and even then, as of last year were most just doubling down on existing.

I heard similar actually last month at an event I was at - funds are sitting on dry powder and not doing cap calls.
> startups pay options in lieu of market-rate salary

this is true but this is largely due to an unworkable tax treatment of giving out illiquid shares to employees that rely on employment for money, and the longstanding tax regime would seek to tax employees that have higher value shares even if they can't get cash to pay for it.

so this has left private companies in an uncompetitive situation with options as the poor workaround, analogous to chemotherapy where it hurts everyone in the absence of a better treatment, but you might come out ahead

Anecdotally, not much changed for East coast startups. What did change is that West coast firms came to the east coast. Whereas 10 years ago it would be noteworthy to work for an SV company - it is now typical.

Epidemiology of 20 million+ vaccine recipients in Australia shows that heart issues related to the vaccine are extremely rare and almost always cause a response within a short time of vaccination.

Given 200+ vaccinations and no sign of falling over yet .. it seems pretty darn unlikely based on observations to date.

As spondylosaurus notes, the chances of heart issues within the decade are very likely just what they were regardless of the vaccine shots.

You could create a trigger that always keeps the value the same unless user has privileges to change it. Or alternatively the RLS rule could check if the column is being updated and abort the call if it is. I’m using a different table that is read-only to regular users to accomplish this.

1x non participating is still the standard in most venture deals for companies doing reasonably well. But every dollar spent by startups essentially builds the preference against them.

Well I'm almost 50 and in an open relationship and into other 'deviancies', not everyone of our generation is so straight-laced :) But I've always known I didn't want kids.
