Reminds me of South Korea too. The tables have turned and they're still struggling to get vaccines. The earliest they'll have a domestic vaccine en-masse will be in 2022. Meanwhile, the US is flush with vaccines.

What eventually will happen is that someone will get fed up and build an open-source alternative on Github. Rinse, repeat.

Although I love Postman and I want to see it succeed, I'm a little stumped when it comes to how this company can scale given its niche.

When is it expected for China to show up? At the Paris Climate Agreement, China stated that it will ratify 20.09% of greenhouse gases. It's sort of hard to tell where progress is when you don't have a good baseline. That goes for

President Biden didn't consult with other world leaders before acting on Afghanistan. This was an actual statement during a press briefing. A quick talk around the table would reveal what China's intentions would be (such as what

Didn't edit my reply soon enough :). I agree, the Chinese are doing exactly that.

Accessing resources requires a mature system of governance similar to Maslow's triangle. I don't think Afghanistan is at the step (yet) where it can import scientists, hire heavy duty machine operators, logistics, and labs to expl

You can probably buy a laptop with a certain generic form-factor with a rugged case that snaps onto the body. Panasonic, unfortunately, can't get economies of scale like LG, Lenovo, Apple.

That was a very cool website. I didn't know that fonts alone could be used to advertise itself.

FreeBSD is like a slow moving turtle. It gets things done slowly but surely! It'll let the world fly by but only adopt things that seems to make the most sense. I guess this is a nod to KMSAN and its usefulness.

> Fox has a strangle-hold on the older minds When most people think of Fox News, they think boomers. You might be right considering that the commercials they repeat target that demographic. As a non-boomer, however, it is refreshing to e

Disinformation aside, let's just consider for a second that people may be simply consuming information that they want to hear, rather than taking in information that the media thinks or wants them to hear.

Same happens in Korean for technically what's green. Most adults will say 'blue light' for signals in a quick response. It really has to do with Chinese characters for blue 청[靑] and green 녹[綠]. When examining the words, they&

Thanks for that clarification, nuclear fusion looked more like lasers and large proof-of-concept demonstrations in national laboratories the last time I checked. Sensors and batteries may have MUCH more contracted timelines.

After school programs have been a profitable enterprise in South Korea and China. I think they're still in the growth-phase in the United States with companies like Kumon, Eye Level, and Russian School of Mathematics. Competition to ge

I think we're also forgetting that adoption of nuclear power is also dependent on a stable government. Geopolitical risks probably outweigh all the drawbacks mentioned.

Apple's recent marketing campaign featuring an Apple logo made to look like a lock was an effective way to prime people to think that all other platforms (not Apple) are less secure. The recent events have been ultimately disappointed

Wildfires are a bit like crop rotation in nature. I think we're returning to the idea that wildfires aren't a bad thing when done in a safe manner. Visiting Lassen National Park, there was a big area where it was nothing but black

Scanners with banknotes remind me of my kid's LeapFrog book. It's basically a book and a pen which can read whatever you tap against. It has an optical sensor at the tip of the pen and the print just has a bunch of microscopic dot
