Twitter offers a chronological feed, the little star thing on the upper right. Works well to get rid of endless scrolling if you don't follow hundreds of people.

Am I misremembering? I vividly recall finding information with regards to this type of structure not being allowed (unsure if regulatory or stock exchange level) with these examples (Mark's majority, Page+Brin's majority, BRK A sh

Thanks to your Klein bottles comment I now also recognize Mr. Stoll, however from a Numberphile video. HN surely is one interesting place.

I had no clue AoC is a one-man-band project. With that in mind, how diversified are these puzzles? Wouldn't it be repetitive for people doing it year over year or is Eric one excessively creative individual?

Main reason I'm still with Windows 10 (perma-watermarked editions) on my laptop and my PC is pure inertia. I've been telling myself I should switch to Linux if only to learn (am a work-in-progress coder), but have procrastinated i

I'm not too political/ideological about it, but Alphabet kept it's G in the acronym, Meta will keep it's F. I may revisit once they don't get >90% of their revenue from Google Services and Facebook + IG. But I do

How does it compare with a T430-like Thinkpad? I bought my second-hand T430s for 200 CAD some 5 years ago, still working well for it's purpose and I didn't bother moving to a lighter OS (am on Win10).

Of all the FAAMG out there, Microsoft arguably has the most diverse revenue streams, I don't see what's surprising with them going after another market (let alone payments). It's just another layer for monetization and doesn&

Plus, "M" and "N" can often be hard to disambiguate, having "Mu" and "Nu" just adds another layer of confusion.

Ha, didn't know there was a Xi between "N" and "O" in the Greek alphabet. I don't wonder why they skipped it.

Really? Contacting the CDC after finding "smallpox"-labelled vials in a vaccine research lab sounds like the responsible thing to do and completely unrelated to MBAs.

My crude searching tells me there are ~3 supernovas in our galaxy every century. Miss one now and the next might wait for the next generation of astrophysicist.

Hum, so when you copy the text and post it into Notepad, it's written with a ton of dashes at places I can't make sense of (not syllables or every word). If you post it in this text box or in Word, it looks normal, I can't ev

Twitter is reputation/persona-centric rather than topic/subforum-centric, it is what you make it to be. I don't really venture outside of fin-Twitter, but I'd bet there are fantastic accounts focused on sharing old hidde

Point stands, but I'm not sure how you get that much for FB and AAPL. In 2020 (4 quarters) they made, per employee, ~$1.2M and $0.7M in gross profit, $1.5M and $1.9M in revenue. I didn't cross check the table but did get the same

All things considered they're not too bad if their goal when fabricating bad times is so that the next generation gets stronger. I would be solely focused on my self-interest if I was a Machiavellian oligarch.

That put way too much intent over people's actions IMO. Who the hell are these aristocrats orchestrating multi-generational psy-ops? Do they meet over brunch to plan it? Not every theory has to be explained by conspiracies. I don'

It looks like a company that's been talking about this direction for ~6 years already which decided to precipitate the rebranded holdco (and maybe speed of R&D/capex) in light of recent controversies. Bit of this, bit of that.

You realize iOS roots are developed by third-party geeks and void your warranty (unless that changed in the years since I've interacted with iOS, but I'd be shocked)? Maybe we should indeed force hardware manufacturers to offer a

The chances these keys aren't lost is zero IMO. Nobody, and I mean nobody would go from an $8k account to $5.7B without selling a dime (no outgoing transaction in 190 days).

Except it's not what tipped the bottom line to green but it's not like that ever mattered when criticizing Tesla's revenue streams with regards to profitability.

Using Firefox or Chrome solves this problem as you don't get full quality for Netflix on them, hence there's no address collision as you resort to using Edge (or else?) for Netflix.
