If you follow the framework and, through the interview, they confirm they are your ICP and have the exact problem you are building to solve, they will be highly likely to convert to a customer.

From that point, if you follow the closing questions, you will gain them as a customer. That is the ultimate goal and the entire point of the post.

It's such a natural problem-solution, low-pressure offer that you don't even have to be a sales wiz.

It is even better to do this pre-launch to have paying customers ready to go when you launch, increasing your product's "speed to market" (which is where many technical founders end up in limbo).
Windows workstations are expected to be dumb clients. They and everyone else really think that if you have actual workloads on them that's what W Server or really linux is for.
> Tab Grouping, Vertical Tabs, and our handy Sidebar will help you stay organized no matter how many tabs you have open — whether it’s 7 or 7,500.

Not sure if this will be good. This reads like they will add Vertical Tabs as a Sidebar, like all the other vertical tab-addons doing it now. But since the Quantum-update there is demand for a second sidebar dedicated for tabs, because as it's now, sidebar is really annoying to use.

But maybe it will at least add some improvements which the other addons can built upon.

Software like Quickbooks is easy to run via RemoteApp. In fact, many probably do that, because it makes for easier maintenance. (I've seen several companies to run Dynamics AX exactly this way, for exactly this reason).

With Solidworks, it would be much more difficult. It is a kind of software, you want to run locally on your beefy workstation.
I honestly don't keep my computers that long, but from a practical point of view my 256GB SSD in my MacBook isn't really cutting it anymore.
As a member of that group, I resent (mildly) that unneeded capitalization. Computer games basically have been around as long as there have been computers.
While I personally would always use Postgres as first my first choice, I've used both Oracle and SQL Server in various projects in the past. Oracle because we needed to run an application that only supported Oracle, and SQL Server because the company I was working at at the time already had a large SQL Server install. Honestly both are perfectly fine databases and I saw no technical reason to replace either if you already have them. That being said, I didn't have to deal with the licensing or the costs, which are the main arguments against both. Everybody I know who has migrated from Oracle to Postgres has done so, not for technical reasons, but to get away from having to deal with Oracles licensing bullshit.
I know this is a popular opinion and I might or might not be in the minority here, but I don't miss the headphone jack on my phone at all, and every gram of battery or other functionality that has taken its place is worth it for me. Water proofing one connector (USB-C) is probably also easier than two.

For the increasingly unlikely case in which I really do need wired headphones, I just carry them with an adapter permanently plugged into them.

> a miniscule onboard amplifier

That amplifier would be dead weight for me! (To be fair, it would be in good company with all the power amplifiers for 5G bands not available in my country, but I get the point of unifying SKUs globally and I can hardly plug one of these in with an adapter when traveling.)
OTOH, taking the position that Apple is the baddie here is just as absurd. These are all big companies out to make a buck.

Without taking sides, I'd say the fundamental problem in this case is the deception. They are pretending to sell one thing and delivering another. If they told you what you were buying, I'd call it clever and totally reasonable.

I'm not a lawyer, but this sounds like racketeering to me. Basically extorting "protection" money from sites.
How can one apply a rule more than universally? Wouldn’t too universally be the same thing as just universally? put differently, how can you do something MORE universally than universally?

Can you still launch chrome manually with the --user-data-dir=/custom/path option when MDM is enabled?
It is user friendly, just picky, who it's friends are ;-)

More seriously though, you are probably bringing assumptions, that are specific to your current OS, and frustrated, that your existing experience is not 100% transferable. This works both ways; if you tried to switch from linux to your current OS, you would be also frustrated by this.
They _almost_ do. I can use a USBC-headphone dongle that came with some Pixel phone with my iPhone, but only for listening to music and videos. For video calls (at least Google Meet), the phone just plays the audio out its speakers like normal, and doesn't offer the option to use the headphone dongle. I thought this was a bug in Google Meet until I plugged in a first-party Apple dongle and it worked perfectly.
Not that I disagree with the alienation of their fanbase. I personally use Firefox mostly because it is not Google, certainly not because it is Mozilla (and to be fair I like the Firefox Containers).

But I am not convinced most people see it like this. Most of the people I know honestly don't make the difference between Firefox and Chrome: they just use what they know. I think Chrome won those people because Google managed to convince them that "Internet == Chrome", not because they consciously chose Chrome as a better alternative.
This is true. I’m thinking about contributing to open source projects, perhaps even starting one, to further help with developing alternatives to “Big Tech” and their increasing levels of control on personal computing.
This is a great article.

In particular, so many technical leaders work in a vacuum with no context. People joining a company as a technical leader needs to absolutely dig in and understand the existing landscape and processes, and not try to just blindly reuse what they did at the last gig.
The name of the "translator" didn't strike me as one that a native speaker of either Russian or English would have.

Sure enough:

I have made use of machine translations for the bulk of the text, and the results are quite satisfactory. At times, I have used several translation services to ensure I am on the right track and that the meaning is not lost in translation. Though, of course, there might be places where I have not translated correctly. I learnt to read the Russian in a very rudimentary way in the process.

Fascinating!
I guess I just don't share the sentiment that giving every child in a classroom unfettered access to content designed to distract them while a teacher is trying to teach the class is a good thing. I'm having difficulty understanding why you'd need to be convinced that it isn't.
What's the upside in me paying for a DRM chip in every damn dongle that Apple can get away with putting one into, and clever manufacturers still inevitably defeating the scheme and flooding the market with poor quality fakes (that Amazon will gladly distribute for them stateside)?

I'm so glad we're mostly past this bullshit with Apple's move to USB-C.
Additionally, when you use a bike long enough you'll often end up making a number of tiny adjustments to it over time. The monetary value of these adjustments may be minimal—add a saddle and rack and bags that fit just right, adjust the handlebars, swap on either more supple or puncture-resistant tires depending on your needs, maybe tweak the gear ratios—but they add up to make the bike work perfectly for you.

When a bike is stolen, the difficulty of replicating this "perfect setup" can be wildly disproportionate to the cost of the bike.
... but wouldn't it make to learn classical Arabic alongside with that?
I think this strikes me as a revealed preference story. Would you rather carry around an additional device, remember to charge it, etc. else be locked out of lifesaving care? I see the appeal of reducing the number of devices you have to carry around.

I also think for many smaller medical device manufacturers it can be advantageous to build on an existing platform like android/iphone. You're already solving one challenging hardware problem, why add another when you can take advantage of a mature development ecosystem that consumers 1) seem to have a preference for and 2) have already paid for, thus lowering the cost of treatment delivery.
I'm happy to nag both
One area I find DRY particularly annoying is when people overly abstract Typescript types. Instead of a plain interface with a few properties, you end up with a bunch of mushed together props like { thing: boolean } & Pick<MyOtherObj, 'bar' | 'baz'} & Omit<BaseObj, 'stuff'> instead of a few duplicated but easily readable interfaces:

interface MyProps {
thing: boolean;
bar: string;
baz: string;
stuff: string;
}
What's the backend look like? Is there a repo?
No matter what we think of Apple, we can absolutely blame others for being deceitful and claiming they are selling one thing while actually providing something inferior.

I don't get it. There is not much meaning to be decoded from the subtleties of my dog's barks. It's just an on or off thing.
> Finally, I think people grossly overestimate the difficulty of memorizing text.

This resonates with me. I did a lot of amateur acting in my early 20s, and while I remember memorizing the text having been a lot of work early in the process, by the we were doing daily runs hardly anybody had any problem with memorizing the text. I remember it being kind of nice having memorized the lines though, as holding the script on stage during practice can be kind of annoying some times, so I tried to get the task of memorizing the lines done as early as possible.

Often the crew don't have visas for the country where the ship was abandoned. So they can't transit from the port to the nearest airport and then home unless Customs/Immigration agree to allow it.

They also usually haven't been paid for that time. So they are motivated to stay (usually under deplorable conditions) because of the chance that the new owners will give them their back pay.

Sometimes the local community will ferry food out to the crews. But if the ship runs out of fuel to power the generators they'll be without air conditioning and more importantly - navigation lights to show they're anchored.

What more could you possibly need me to explain? I've provided much more detail than a lot of the YT tutorials of saying download my LUT. I've described recognizing that as the signal was pushed to the max the color changed from white to magenta and the actual cause coming from a bad sensor in a camera not delivering enough data in the green channel which required using the grading software to isolate and push the green channel harder so that it went back to the desired white. I've briefly talked about the basics of primary and secondary grading. I've talked about using the scopes to see how the adjustments you are making are actually affecting the signal. I have provided much detail on how a grading session is not just applying a LUT. I have never in a serious conversation said that's proprietary knowledge and you're not worthy. I have openly shared. You have not actually asked any direct question other that taking offense and my offense.

I really don't know how you think me and my cohorts are behaving. Is it that we (extrapolated from conversations I've heard) get offended because someone calls themself a colorist because they can apply a LUT? You think this is pompous that we do not agree that the ability to apply a LUT is the same thing as running a full color session? At this point, I'm really not sure what high horse you are on or that you think I am on.
Same. Was on TurboTax but switched to FreeTaxUSA.

Wonderful UX and it was faster than TurboTax to file.
I know a few. My observation ist there are basically two types: Market rejects and fanatics who work for the government out of an antiquated sense of duty.

The latter tend to be quite good.
I didn't code it, but at a prior position part of my job was to maintain a 15,000 line sh script. (Why? Because it was part of a large enterprise product that had to run on a wide variety of platforms. That made a compiled binary problematic for installation and configuration.)

Honestly? It was fine. It was well-written and easy to follow and maintain.

I don't think the size of the script (or source code for a proper programming language) is nearly as important as how well-written it is.
I switched to Firefox about 3 weeks ago, what is killing me is dragging the tabs. It is so much worse with Firefox. Someone has made a video of this if one can't remember how they differ: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRuBDH32hPI

With Chrome I can drag a tab and it moves with me, with Firefox the tab being dragged blocks the view. Also since with Chrome, the tab moves with the mouse I can with one drag move a tab and use Windows' snap-to-edge feature. This is a two-step process with Firefox.

Firefox is an underdog, it should focus on making the UI familiar and fast, but keep customizability. Another thing I noticed is that Firefox doesn't allow to keep unpacked extensions loaded as Chrome does, there is no good reason why not, luckily I fixed that with some userChrome scripts.

USB-C wasn't a thing when Lightning was created. And Lightning was way, way, way better than Micro-USB. Apple has been converting their iDevices to USB-C for years, they held out on the iPhone because it is a high-impact switch that would affect a lot of customers with purchased accessories (some of which are quite expensive).

This is becoming less and less common for me as phone battery life gets better, but on long flights it's annoying to have to choose between charging your phone and using your headphones.

To indulge a tangent, which attribute would you say is determinative for an “American car”? Is it just where the corporation is registered? That’s probably international across the board, after all Jeeps are Chryslers are Fiats are Peugeots are all Stellantis and are headquartered in the Netherlands by way of France, Italy, and America. I suppose Ford still resembles its original American identity, even if they’d really like to build more cars in Mexico. General Motors is still mostly an American brand, but it also sold Hummer to a Chinese company, and has several platforms that are shared with European and Asian brands. If it’s simply where the board members hold meetings, then I’m not too keen on buying American for its own sake, but the broader point is, what the hell even is an American car anymore?

I would argue the location of its manufacture is probably the most significant factor, as it contributes the most towards what I think of people commonly think of as buying “American”—things like supporting the assembly line workers, and as much as possible keeping the economic activities surrounding its production domestic. To that end, my BMW 3-series was built in South Carolina, and would then rank as an American car. But that notion is pretty absurd to my sensibilities, so maybe it’s more of a cultural idea? So American cars could be made anywhere, as long as they’re huge, overpowered, and are a Ford F-150. By that logic, I’d call a Jeep Wrangler American, but probably not the Wagoneer (see: Range Rover), and certainly not the Compass (see: pre-Genesis Hyundai). This definition seems far too ambiguous and subjective.

Ultimately, I think globalization has effectively ended the whole idea of nationalistic car manufacturing. Like a lot of now-vestigial cultural institutions, the modern world economy has consumed these old modes of thought, and left them to be wielded as marketing by advertising agencies who eagerly leverage our nostalgia and cultural identities to craft the illusion that these brands still represent the American Way®.
Huh, very interesting!

Since these adapters are active, I wonder if there's a slight mismatch in what the Pixel adapter advertises and what the iPhone expects. Maybe the iPhone identifies it as a USB speaker (i.e. output only)?

I also wonder who's out of spec here: My guess would be Apple (especially Google's history of pushing USB-C and even producing some open-hardware debugging tools for it), but then again I've had my Macbook struggle with a Chromebook charger, and only that charger in the past.

Would be curious to see a USB-knowledgeable person run a logic analyzer on the Pixel dongle to see what's going on.

Sure, but would the users have sided with FF? I'm not convinced. The users use whatever BigTech tells them to use, that's how I see it.

Brave is Chromium. I don't see how this would even begin correcting the mistakes of FF. The one thing FF does right is that it is not Chromium.

> Unfortunately I don't have exact cases, but there are many claims that conservative justices are very much "states rights" when it comes to things like abortion, but very much not "states rights" when it comes to things like gun control.

That is because of the incorporation of the bill of rights. The current interpretation of the 14th amendment is that some of the Amendments in Bill of Rights apply to both the federal and state governments.

The second amendment is one of those amendments (at least according to the conservative justices) and as such they should be protected at the federal level.

Abortion is not listed in the constitution and as such the 10th amendment takes precedence and the states can decide.

The more liberal justices do the same thing with amendments and come up with their own justification for which amendments are fully and partially incorporated.

Hypothetically, what would have happened if he got way more votes and won the presidency? Does that immediately free him from prison, or would he need to formally pardon himself first? Could he even do that?
Hmmm. Interesting idea. So this is how I should be thinking about the process: On day one I invest $99 dollar into stuff and get a bread. I sell it on the same day for $100. (Turns out spherical cows in vacuum eat very expensive bread.) Then on the second day I take the $100 thus earned and spend $99 out of it on stuff to bake a bread. I have a bread and $1 dollar in the business. I sell the bread for $100 and I have $101 at the end of the day. And so on and so on. 365 days later at the end of the day I have $464. (I might be off by one there.)

If I look at that business in a year had $464 revenue and $99 cost. Investopedia defines gross margin as "(Revenue − Cost of goods sold) / Revenue" So that would be (464-99)/464=0.79. So that is a 79% margin. Below the 365%. Where I'm going wrong?

In case (a) and (b) aren't immediately obvious:

The net change in direction around a triangle, quadrilateral, or any simple closed curve is a full rotation, i.e., 2π.

The sum of the interior angle and the signed change in direction around a vertex of a polygon is π (consider the case of a "vertex" with interior angle π).

So for a polygon with interior angles θ₁, θ₂, …, θₙ,

2π = (π - θ₁) + (π - θ₂) + ⋯ + (π - θₙ),

therefore

θ₁ + θ₂ + ⋯ + θₙ = nπ - 2π = (n-2)π.
