Hopefully the other pieces get cheap enough to enable some revolution in the wiring side of it. Falling costs enable some acceptable loss of efficiency, so you can blow 100W on unnecessary power conversion and another 100W or whatever on l

ML is there to maximize business income--nothing else. If ML was benefiting me, it would know that 90% of the time I fire up Hulu I plan to watch the next episode of what I was watching last time. And it would make that a one click action.

Obviously it is not as good. Disney is literally the best, in the wealthiest nation in the entire world. But a state park will still entertain a family for a day or two, which may or may not be the true goal. Maybe you feel it is necessa

I estimated based on my memory of reading about the construction process at rest areas here in ND. Via Wikipedia now, it looks like I was about right. Construction of the very first segments started in 1956. Various milestones were accom

So much bloat in campgrounds. Paved pads, 50A electric, game rooms, continental breakfasts, ridiculous playgrounds, etc. The economical options are still out there, mostly state parks and city run venues. Don't be surprised when the

I think everything is just generally "nicer". Stadium seats are cushier, parking lots are paved instead of gravel, sidewalks are a lot wider, more air-conditioned spaces, better food availability, etc. And people expect more excit

I actually do most of my tasks in various GUIs. This has a large advantage in discoverability (and for my brain: memorability). So I find no need for cheat sheets in general. If on command line, I am typically following an installation gu

Very good: I'm healthy and my wife is healthy with our first baby on the way. A couple siblings+spouses and my parents live in the same town, I see them all regularly, and they are all healthy. I lost 10 pounds over the past couple m

You sell your degree by selling your time for a higher rate, because it is generally more useful than the time that the less-educated would be selling.

Yes, so I think it is reasonable that someone who stumbles upon $100,000,000 and wants to "fix the Internet" aim a little higher than making it as easy as possible to do the technical workarounds that leave us all worse-off.

I have heard of but never really looked in to Tailscale until today. I'm not impressed. "Fixing the Internet" is not done by layering more private network garbage on top of it. Their claim[0] that after you install Tailscale

I use Outlook at work and Mail (Microsoft Store app) at home. I suppose the main reason is that they have basically foolproof compatibility and functioning with their respective O365 and Outlook.com (formerly/via Windows Live Custom D

Anyone can move to my town and get an $18/hour starting wage job and buy a $150,000 house. Hard to imagine that this is unique. Look outside the cities...

There is no way to link "ownership" of a physical asset to a blockchain, other than a trusted third party who ultimately has use of force as an enforcement method.

So a database of some sort I suppose...who is going to be the host/arbiter? Or is there a non-blockchain way to run a currency system that has no central authority?

Why don't you just not partake in the content? You really don't need to spend all that time watching shows. If you don't like the terms under which it is offered, just find something else to do.

I guess you have shown that in the luxury segment the TCO comes out better for EVs. Many people are not buying $50k+ luxury vehicles. Care to run an estimate for something like what I was buying a year ago? I was in the market for a load

It is too obscure. Source: I am a fairly smart and well-read person and do not know the meaning of the word. You can't have a word that difficult in a game that has a win streak...it is like a reverse deus ex machina or something. B

You can use the unsubscribe link at the bottom of each email. I have done this probably hundreds of times over the past 5 years and it has worked as expected with no undesirable side effects.

Anyone holding Tether will be stuck selling it for the equivalent of $0.05 or whatever. This alone would have no effect on crypto prices. However, it will become harder to get various government-type currencies in to exchanges so presumabl
