But those preschools build immunity.
Dating apps cater to men ~9-10 and women ~4-10. Many women would rather have sex once every two weeks with a polygamous man they consider a "9" than sex every night with a monogamous man they consider a "5". This has…
The wildly unbalanced gender ratio makes men frustrated, which causes them to invest very little in reaching out to women so that they can reach out to dozens/hundreds/thousands, which makes an experience for women of…
It's very effective for humidification, the difference is immediately noticeable. The room is probably 100 square feet, I'm only humidifying it at night, so by your calculation it should take only about half a gallon of…
This was one of the early theories about how Facebook would monetize -- that your real-life friends would value their relationship with you too highly to recommend anything but truly great products to you. That hit the…
It’s obviously not precise. But roughly after that you are making about a million a year minimum in cash flow and can think about spending $250k+ on custom software.
To mildly humidify my baby son’s room without having to maintain a humidifier, I use a towel soaked in water, draped over a chair, with a fan pointed at it overnight.
Nobody doing marketplaces etc. should be using anything but off-the-shelf software until $10 million annual revenue.
What I mean is that, with some things like music, I can say that this recording is better than this one because the musician is playing with better dynamics, or better pacing, etc, but with two chocolate cakes from a…
What does context-free syntax mean? And what does “you cannot parse it” mean? Meaning you can’t stream it, you need the whole file first?
How is TeX terrible? I’d appreciate it if you could calibrate your response roughly to my level of discernment, which is to perceive LaTeX documents as better looking than Microsoft Word, but not be able to articulate…
I think that in 2020, everyone outside of a specifically secured facility should assume that are being recorded at all times.
One is Apple or Netflix and the other isn’t. I don’t feel comfortable sharing more specificity than that.
I can tell you that two FAANGs implement GDPR compliance for everyone because they didn’t want to risk getting a user’s EU status wrong.
This sounds a bit like Comic Book Guy. For every person who has the opinion that Excel is “so crappy” there are probably 100 like myself who place it in the highest category of application software quality, with…
Also Microsoft makes tens of billions of dollars per year from Excel and even if only 1% of that goes back into performance, that’s a lot of optimization.
90% of the world’s software developers don’t realize that they are software developers and their language is Excel formulas.
And there’s a 1000x programmer who doesn’t deliver something that a team of 1000 people would create, they deliver something that a 1000 person team couldn’t create in their wildest dreams. Dennis Ritchie, Jeff Dean,…
It would make the chance of success more than twice as high if done right.
When I had a VC-backed company what I really wanted was something like this... where everything that was "commodity" would be delivered from the VC, who can negotiate better terms for it. Office space, internet, payroll…
Example of even how the most absurd successes often have nailed the important details really well.
It's called high-functioning addiction and there are tens of millions of such people (mostly addicted to alcohol).
I haven't hard quit anything but vastly reduced all of these things. Yes, I have vastly reduced my visits to news websites, Twitter, etc. I have increased my consumption of monthly periodicals, books, and movies.
Software is built like crap because when it fails it doesn't kill anyone. Except the software that does kill people when it fails, and that's engineered properly -- not perfectly, but in line with other things like…
He just won the Oscar award for Best Adapted Screenplay so whether you like his work or not, he is an admired figure in the entertainment industry, which has huge cultural reach. Basically, he is a guy from the inner…
