The Manhattan project was divided into smaller problems that were solved by experts without them fully understanding the nature of the project. Then, the solution was reassembled by a handful of experts. You can divide…
I am under the impression that Firefox is the only web browser which has access to quality ad blocker. Am I incorrect in this? How is this not enough of a selling point for everyone to switch to it?
I've been using it since about February, still using it. It's running on my old M1 MBP. I have a lot of automations on OpenClaw, things like "Every week summarize this data and send me a message about it" or "check when…
I don't think these things are luxury at all, but can be packaged as luxury. For example, you can find quiet parks in most metro areas or you can go to a retreat in a resort in the mountains. For years I've been buying…
1. Do any of the cost savings recommendations you address come close to $1T/yr impact? This is the scale we should be aiming for. 2. If you think this modeling is inaccurate or incomplete you can directly discuss that.…
The non-healthcare sectors of the economy do.
Social Security is another great example.
> The problem with US healthcare isn't who pays for it, its how damn expensive it is Saving $1,000,000,000,000/yr is directly addressing how damn expensive it is.
Nothing executes more unverified untrusted code than a web browser will. You want some separation between it and everything else you have going on.
I actually think of degree mills as being vertically scaled. Online courses, a lot of course work graded by computers, large classrooms, etc. As for the quality, I think small classrooms with good teachers probably…
At this point you're just describing learning using buzz words.
> would be impossible to scale I think education is something better scaled horizontally than vertically. More schools, with more professors instead increasing the student per professor throughput. The classes where I…
I don't love this framing among software developers. This framing is very transactional, when many of the authors are explicitly trying to make their work free. The best thing a software dev can do is donate some of…
I switched from tmux to Herdr about six weeks ago. It's a great bit of software, the UI is focused on switching between multiple agents quickly. I run Herdr to keep my opencode instances well managed, and it also works…
> I think everyone in the HN crowd knows that. I actually did not. I know there is some degree of two-way communication over HDMI/DP, and was curious if this was how the software was installed. I think discussing the…
These eras of Windows had their own dark patterns that were incredibly anti-consumer. No one's lives were improved because they installed the Ask Jeeves toolbar, but people were asked to install it millions and millions…
I remember when Windows didn't take gigabytes of space because there wasn't gigabytes of space, and it was still shitware.
Like every other group, there is some amount of groupthink happening with Wall Street analysts. They all came to similar incorrect conclusions because they are working with similar information using similar techniques…
$200b seems very low for a company with this level of capital investment. They did 167 launches last year. It's one of the few industries where US is outproducing China. We have both more launches and heavier launches.…
SpaceX is still a $1.6T company measured by the sum total paper value of all of its stock. Its stock would have to go down another 40% from today's value before it is not "a trillion dollar company." It could grow, it…
I'd rather have slower and better output than worse and faster output.
It's complex and imperfect, but in this situation the most direct ROI would be the cost of recruiting a newly graduated doctor by increasing the salary until someone accepts compared to the cost of providing the…
While this is just a rule of thumb, I consider moderate exercise, reading, and socializing to be roughly equivalent in positive health benefits. I try to get a little bit of each every day, and then try to have longer…
This is common for teachers in many US states too -- spend X years teaching where we need you the most and we cover your degree. In the US a teaching degree might be $50,000, and medical degree might be $500,000. I'm…
I think IRL has more implications to not taking promotions than is coded into the game. I wouldn't use this game as career advice.
