As usual, I'd like to bring up that it is until you have enough profit for it to no longer be only about that. Also regardless of the quality of the examples, it may be the case that the point (opportunity cost is…
I'm sorry, but this is just a terrible take. He told the story about how they were thinking of calling it "Khanpanion", but apparently that has a bad connotation in Latin America, so while they were brainstorming,…
Sal Khan did an interview at the Commonwealth Club this past week where he stated that the reason for region locking is one of availability and cost. It seems like MSFT is only footing the bill for US use, rather than…
I thought that too on the graph, but I think that's a bug in labeling. When I look at the actual scale, that colour appears to be nuclear (and the other straight line is geothermal). This also makes more sense as they…
I personally have really not had this experience - especially given that a lot of companies in tech seem to have landed on either remote or hybrid (3 days in two days optional). I also think that this is fundamentally a…
I find this type of argument about RTO to be pretty poor. I think it’s pretty lazy to crank out a vibes based article describing specific grievances and generalizing to an entire population. I think the real discussion…
I don't really understand your complaints about API keys, but if you did want to make an issue of something perhaps it should be that you get your API key sent to you by email, in plaintext. Not amazing, but I guess for…
I saw their pricing page, but I’m a little confused. Do they have funding? Is this someone’s passion project that they are paying for out of their own pocket? I’m unsure how or why it’s free right now?

My understanding of why companies cannot purposely show that they take perf or years of service into account has more to do with labour law than a lack of caring. You cannot take into account perf in a layoff - if you…
Lichess as an application is very impressive, and I use it frequently. The one thing that is somewhat more annoying is the way in which there is a (daily?) restart of the servers, causing strange behaviour in-game. For…
I think that you are missing relative height. Plane is at 10km, GPS satellite at 20Mm.
I believe that what you are missing is the distance between the satellite and the plane. planes are at ~10,000 m altitude, GPS flies at 20,000,000 m altitude. A very small angle of distortion creates a very large…
