HAM radio is whole range of things that were not possible when I was getting into it - first of all it's super cheap to start now, and you can probably bounce RF signals off the moon for less than $100 nowadays.…
I know it's brutal, but my kids were raised with iPads, PS3-5, computers, age inappropriate Minecraft and youtube, all kids of gadgets and turned out ok, already earning money (in tech of course) - one is in UX /…
Curious about the motivation. The current conflict in Iran once again reminds us of how it;s all intertwined. The blockade of Strait of Hormuz means helium shortages means no chip production, means your EU based…
I think you'd want to offer morethan a problem statement when taking CEO time. Yes it's broken because shareholders demand M$ products have AI feature so that the share price has the 'AI' multiple. It's pretty hard to…
One thing I learned about logic is that if you start with a false statement, whatever comes next doesn't matter "almost all valuations and returns are driven by corporate earnings" no they are not, at least not anymore.
..so they would pay so the see the blog post a little earlier thna you do? Math doesn't work out on this
came here to put this comment exactly ;)
blah, blah,people will simply use it as they see fit
I think that goes to show that official inflation benchmarks are not very practical / useful in terms of buckets of things that people actually buy or desire. If the bucket that measured inflation included computer…
I dunno, I got used to the weekly beatings. You could arque that if you understand what brings the most business value and deliver that repeatedly, you're pretty safe from being fired and arguably you'd know how to run…
Wow, I bought Baldur's Gate 3 out of nostalgia before a very long (20hours + ) flight and played some good long hours on the plane. Unfortunately the Proton version meant the game was unplayable on the Deck later in the…
but 250 000 000 other people will.
What is the chemistry and expected lifetime of the batterries? They are saying this is for sustainable energy future but it looks like it's using natural gas (not sustainable) powered energy to charge up Lithium(?)…
US can (effectively) shut down F35s remote.y
computer job market is a huge misallocation of skills and resources, so no it's not that simple. Given how much tech debt/backlog there is, there should be enough work for everyone, just paid less. The fact that it…

For 2038 I predict Epochalypse and since there will only be vibe coders by then, good luck to y'all.
At that time the Palantit valuation was considered 'hefty / overpriced' at $9B. Current stock price valuation, post IPO is a completely detached from fundamentals ~$378B if you were to apply the same ratio to Databricks…
depends on who is making a decision and how exactly is the funding round structured - for some investors, diluting other shareholders is actually a good thing. For existing employees, if they get an option to partially…
1. Any idea on what should I start next so that I can get acquihired? 2. It looks like Apple didn't get much 'ownership' of OPA in this case, what was the point of purchasing the company as a whole versus simply…
FWIW, I am in a project like this where we a re given free will to use whatever it takes to deliver quickly and ignore the company internal procedures etc - we're using agile as it should be done (principles not just…
Question, if you have to amortise it over 5 years, and you can survive the initial 4, does it break even in year 5 (assuming stable employment)? Ie you amortise the previous 5 years (20% each) which works out to 100%…
I think this one is hard to defend but let me tell you a similar story in the UK. Gov uk was redesigned by some of the smartest people and generally I still praise a lot of digital transformation from that era. But…
I recently got back into coding (thank you LLMs!) and I find this is much more isolating lifestyle. If I didn’t find the problem solving so rewarding and money was not a consideration I would actually prefer a more…
And don’t even get me started on A leading to B
