A few things: 1. The location resolution is too high for regions - ex: all of the Seattle area should lump together and only break apart into smaller locations (Bellevue, etc) when zoomed all the way in. 2. Email notification worked for kis

If you're a pure boglehead, sure - but if you want "index but" + tax harvesting, this seems good, no?

The first part is arguable, the second isn't - it just isn't true. Usually, you get large, monopolistic industries that are propped up by the state. So worse products and services than what's available internationally for hig

Why would it increase supply? You've reduced international supply in exchange for increasing domestic supply. Promoting internal business isn't a sure thing - particularly when tariffs reduce competitive pressures.

There's no glib decree - a new technology has arrived. I'm being very honest about it - you can't put it back in the bottle, any more than you could put jacquard looms or machine woodcarving of trim could be. The position bet

A question that has probably been answered, but... In a hits business, does quality picking matter? You want to avoid adverse selection, but beyond that - isn't it just about scale?

I'm confused about your point RE: infomercials et al - that's poor quality "content" that's been proliferating for, as you say, more than 50 years. Is that not the work of commercial creative workers? Did it not exi

I think many adults also get distraught or enraged by tiny things - it is an emotional regulation problem, not an age problem (but adults can and should be better than children).

Not in the traditional sense - they simply demand the same things they normally eat, sans the hour+ of commuting to get it.

Food deserts also exist in urban areas, particularly poor and historically disadvantaged communities. No magic to capitalism - the local communities don't get a grocery because they can't pay (and, of course, other reasons), even

To add, it is more "to move heavily" - it has a negative correlation to agility and speed. Cars don't trundle, overloaded trucks do.

Something much like this is used for wells - both simple and effective. I wonder why it wouldn't work here (or if just hasn't been tried).

Morning Star is an example that takes it even further - there are no bosses and all pay is peer based. They do about $1B a year and have 10% of the tomato ingredient market.

Another anecdote - I sold a technical book through one of the big publishers, never heard back post advances, and found out that the international edition wasn't considered to be part of my royalty agreement. This was bad for my coauth

I don't get the Economist, but I'm wondering how bimodal the distribution is - are we seeing a small cohort run away with the game or is everyone better off?

Oh, absolutely! I was more speaking to the clean up. Lasers are a big step up.

Given large scale laser cuts I've seen - they require less cleanup, but still some. You spatter molten metal everywhere.

This was a good opportunity to say "overtook" as it breaks the idea of acquisition (and sounds more like racing)

! Amazing. I had seen so many strong Haskell teams that Rust seemed like the play, for the same reasoning. I'm glad it worked out for both of us.

I made the call between Haskell and Rust for my fintech startup. I chose Rust when I realized how few Haskell programmers there were available to hire - at 20 engineers, we'd be one of the largest shops on the West Coast of the US AFAI
