It surely is, but I believe it has less to do with sense of taste. There's a very weird, intangible correlation between smoking (and afaik, drinking) and favouring salty food. Not as in, a little bit saltier just to taste it, but actua

Yup. Back when I was smoking cigarettes I used to pour salt on anything - and funnily enough a huge percentage of smokers does the same, no idea why.

100% spot on on RAID, I actually had it happen once that a second disk failed while under load of rebuilding the array after the first disk failure, not related to the SSD issue.

Serious question to HN folks: As someone who has never used the touch bar (Air/Mini), do you think it adds value?

by Mo3 4y ago
Yup. Would you consider encryption obstruction of justice?

Yes, but they didn’t destroy data. They merely shut off access to it.

Morally speaking, I’m not sure who is in the right here. I believe in the right to protect your data, and the kill switches seem somewhat acceptable.. on the other hand, Uber is scum and has systematically destroyed the taxi business.

I’m honestly not quite sure how to feel about this.

Don’t try to force anything please or you’re going to lose the joy in life. The joking I know myself as well, in childhood I was pretty much the worst class clown you can imagine and it continued until I was 21 or so. Usually there seems to

I mean, it didn't necessarily take Josh Wolfe to see this as a viable possibility.

Why does the "Decentral Bank" have safeguards and ways to modify "immutable" constructs just like any other web3/DeFi project then? The financial system is the way it is for a reason, and crypto is not some sort of

.. and we did so in a “decentralized” manner. Because we’re the Decentral Bank, of course, and everything is possible if you believe in it, including arbitrarily modifying and fixing bugs in “immutable” constructs in a centralized manner. T

The example you stated is a truly fantastic one. Graph Search was pretty much like a direct API into their front facing network.

I think there's a misunderstanding. I noted that I wouldn't see these businesses as a good investment any more because of SpaceX and further developments. I believe they can still commit highway robbery even without their net marg

by Mo3 4y ago
Definitely agree, I probably wouldn't touch them at this point any more at all. Was just replying to the notion that this couldn't be artificial highway robbery just because their net margin isn't great. I believe it definite

Iridium apparently had much more expenses for a few years around 2018, possibly mass upgrading their infrastructure, but before that a decade of near constant 20-30% net, recovering again now, unless I'm misreading this data.
228.
by Mo3 4y ago
I would argue that 25% or so net margin for a decade is a pretty significant sign considering how small their customer base must be and how much expenses they must have. But yes, I did in fact assume it to be higher.

Depending on how this is priced this is still an extremely viable option for a good chunk of the maritime industry, even if coverage is limited to ports and national waters.

Thank you, I miswrote.

You are absolutely spot on. The market isn’t competitive, it’s artificial highway robbery to even be in business. The entry requirements and expenses are insanely high, preventing a lot of competition to begin with, and the few players are

I think Facebook/Meta are creating fantastic and mind-boggling value. Just not for the end users, but for the advertisement and data broker industries.

You know what, at first glance this looks like some sort of insane workaround for another issue somewhere else. There’s no possible rational explanation I can come up with to be doing this, but what do I know.

That sums it up pretty nicely. I can't remember seeing a lot of scientists producing reality TV. > I don't really watch recent American supernatural daytime television. Granted, neither do I. Maybe Taylor is just a particularly

I have watched clips from shows with Taylor and I am continuously amazed, not by the over-dramatic fake acting, but by the fact that he apparently has several different PhDs and serious academic background. Ignoring the fact that he produce

That seems accurate to me, just keep in mind that we were among the first comments at that time so it isn’t needless bashing looking at it now but was simply one of the first opinionated comments on the thread

It's not like I had physical injury because of his "apology" either, but this is absolutely morally wrong behaviour even if we specifically weren't affected by it, intent matters more than anything, and instead of actual

by Mo3 4y ago
Hey, live and let live, but this kind of scummy "apologising" is far worse than the cold mailing itself and absolutely despicably so misleading and manipulative.

I'd definitely disagree. This comes off as nothing but another marketing attempt. "Oh no, I'm so sorry I cold mailed you about MY SERVICE HERE PLEASE CLICK ON IT, so I'd like to publicly apologise on my branded blog and
