Reading the classics, in some sense, connects you to everyone who ever read them across all of human history. That's not nothing.
Interesting, thanks. I've always been a fairly "heavy" (vs other people) user of the emdash after a high school english teacher made us use one in every paper to learn how they worked (along with a colon), and I've been…
What specifically is the LLM verbiage you're seeing here? That reads like a normal sentence to me.
Thank you for this. As someone who recently had to stumble back into turning a few knobs in (what I thought would be) AD for Office 365 licensing needs, after ~10 years outside of the MS sandbox, I had no earthly idea…
Thank you for this. Fantastic articulation of a thing I've experienced a few times. Interestingly (or maybe not?), the things that rise to this level have a much higher activation threshold the older I get.
> parents need to strike a balance between good faith listening and validating, while still ultimately retaining the last word and being able to be an authority when it matters. This is pretty much the key in my…
Is this really the same thing though? My family uses that app pretty regularly, and for us at least, it stops us from going out to restaurant or something instead. It's not replacing dumpster-diving, nor would I…
Shoe Dog by Phil Night might fit the bill. It is definitely about the person (who founded Nike), but also a fascinating look into how the sportswear industry took hold, sponsorship deals, Michael Jordan, etc.
For me at least, it's personal discipline. If I can fiddle and change stuff, I will.
Not to mention security compliance. If you can afford all of that, seems pretty likely you'll also have SOC2/etc needs. Being able to "ignore" the whole physical security aspect of that stuff is a huge benefit of the…
Two books helped convince me this effect was "real" enough to try it: The Oxygen Advantage and Breathe. A ~year later, anecdotal evidence: it works.
Came here to say this. Great service.
But it would mean I don't have to buy the same brand of every tool.
New things are coming out, Meta's "prophet" for one. I've been pretty impressed with it in a "just throw data and don't even think about parameters" sense. But the fact is, ARIMA models work. So people keep using them.…
Same exact path here, just a few years later. Tried gaming on my mom's Gateway, which led to building my first PC with a Pentium D, which led to a hobby of constantly buying/selling hardware on ebay and swapping stuff…
No knowledge of Google specifically, but that M&A team is often part of strategy unit that's constantly looking at potential acquisitions to fill gaps in product offerings, valuing internal business units for possible…
I will completely admit that is the main reason I ever replace my phone. It usually ends up being more expensive to replace the battery (even doing it myself with an iFixit kit) than to get a new one with carrier…
Who makes the thermostat?
Is there something unique to RISC that makes it inexpensive to manufacture custom chips? Otherwise, I'd imagine the cost of the mask set and validation to far, far outweigh any reduction in unit cost you might see from…
Those are nice for reducing clutter (I have some), but you're still running 120v on 12ga copper into every one of them.
> we need 2 months to go and clean up everything we've built over the last 6 since we now have an idea of how to structure this capability is gonna be met with a laugh and a no. How do we break this mold? While this…
Power loss?
The auto industry does, but would Apple operate the same way?
It's actually incredible how bad the Google Home app and the whole account debacle is. Had the old Nest thermostat and a few cameras for ~7 years. All worked pretty well with the Nest app. I moved and bought the cheaper…
It's all trade offs. I'm just spitballing here, but if you have limited resources, you can either spend cash/time on lidar or invest in higher-quality mass-produced optics, or better computer vision software. If you get…
