IMO, they should be going after the hardwood flooring market. LVP, engineered hardwood and laminate are all OK, but you could sell this as real wood that is just as durable as LVP. Especially given some of the samples look like teak, ipe, w

This kind of fundamental research though is absolutely worth it. For a fairly small amount of money (on the nation-state scale) you can literally change the world order. Same deal with fusion or other long-term research programs. Quantum co

As far as MBA schemes go, this is pretty benign. Realistically,they are putting consoles into the hands of the most vocal, most dedicated, and most enthusiastic customers first. This makes a ton of sense, and if gets around scalping, I&#x27

There is no gun control that leads to no school shootings. It is simply not possible. The best thing we can do is to address the root cause, and react as quickly as possible when there is a problem. We have police presence at basically ever

We know where gun violence comes from, and it's not dudes collecting vintage rifle prototypes from Yugoslavia. about 2/3 of gun deaths in 2022 are suicides. Of homicides, it's mostly young black men. Suicide rates are highest

Someone build a bunch and sell me one. at $60 for 5, I would be happy to pay $30 for a single one.

nice, idk exactly what to call it, but it's imo a much bigger value than a clear 0% vs 0.05% fee difference.

One of the things you can easily do with your approach is to offer "soft shorting". Essentially, one of the biggest issues with normal short positions is that downside is basically unlimited. Plenty of shorts have been wiped out i

If you get your two surfaces very very close, sure. The problem is most non-ground metal is going to have a surface finish that is too rough for this to work. You could squeeze things together, but this depends on part geometry.

weld prettiness != weld goodness. I am not saying she is god's gift to welding, but without actual testing, a cross section, and xray, you cannot judge accurately. This is why safety critical welds are xray inspected, checked for crack

Autofeed bandsaw should hold 1/16" no problem, probably closer to 1/32", especially for short stuff. On a full stick (20/24'), holding an 1/8, especially for hand layout and fabrication, is perfectly fine

I hate gambling, so I don't gamble. However, if you want to gamble, more power to you. However, I don't want protection enforced by the government here. I want the government to protect the air, water, military, forces of nature,

I mean, you've got to know your audience. There is an inherent trade off between specificity (which should hopefully improve your conversion rate) and generality (which should hopefully bring your message to more people). Personally, w

Totally fair, I am conflating two pretty different things. For symmetric crypto, there is Grover's algorithm, which we can mitigate by just doubling key size. However, for asymmetric crypto, shor's algorithm is going to wreck it;

If anything, this approach shows how good a system passwords are. The downfall will be cheap quantum computers; it seems like we have some time until those are available. An A100 is about $2/hr, so cracking even a "basic" pas

I think this wired article is an excellent dive into the issue. Focuses on Taiwan, which has seen an insane rise in myopia. https://archive.is/ybLnZ

I have used these for several projects. If you need a few W of cooling power to drop some material below ambient temperature, TECs can be a great choice. However, you need to now dump about 5-10X the heat somewhere else. If you need to just

I love these threads, because invariably you get dozens of people claiming that the majority of Americans don’t need a truck, are compensating for a small penis, etc etc. they always bring out a ton of vitriol. They might be right! But. Thi

Thanks for the link! It seems like they mostly focus on digitization, with some cloud storage being offered. A few key differences: Data distribution: one of the hard parts is actually sharing the memories you’ve saved when you die (or at s

I think boring, standard solutions are actually pretty effective. We use commercial cloud cold storage for primary backup, with a self-hosted cache layer in front to drive down cost. Commercial off-the-shelf storage is also the best charact

oops, deadpan -> deadman https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_man%27s_switch It's not a perfect switch, but the idea is that you might have things you would only rather release when you're dead.

It's a good question. A lot of it centers around creating good corporate governance and a reason for either me (or someone else) to stay interested (careful incentive design). This is obviously antithetical to the typical scale-up stra

Long-term (decades), no-subscription archival storage. Essentially, you buy a block of space, upload your data over time, and it gets distributed when you need it (if you lost a primary backup), or on your death (to friends and relatives, o

For context, I am very familiar with KiCAD and somewhat familiar with Eagle. I think KiCAD gets a lot of things right. Some of the broken things: parts management (There is no central repo, a la LVFS, where I can get a part/pinout&#x

This kind of military superiority argument lost the US 2 wars. Yes, you can absolutely flatten a city block with ease, but if the US couldn’t do it to people 1000s of miles away in dirt poor countries, they’re going to have a hell of a time

Use whatever get the job done. It's fine to use Vscode, but it's nice to know emacs/vim/nano, it's very nice to know ed/vi, but it's really nice to not have to use echo.

I had some mosfet gate drivers (IR2112) that were really marked as IR2113, a higher tier part. The only real way to tell what you've got is to remove most of the epoxy, then boil the rest in nitric/sulfuric acid. After much mess a
