I still feel that something like Medicare for All should just be an issue for those that are all about free markets and entrepreneurship. Maybe there are millions in America that only keep their jobs for the health benefits rather than star

Sure but seeing where his users were going and buying those companies at what are now very low prices (especially instagram) were a big deal. Not so much with Oculus though. The whole metaverse thing ended up being very cringe.

Agree with you about ethics but it was a master stroke for him to buy both Instagram and WhatsApp.

I think their huge mistake was announcing a bunch of stuff (Apple Intelligence) that ended up being vaporware. My guess is that they're also adapting to the changing ecosystem, and since they move very slowly, the trends seem archaic (

Yeah the non-anonymity part of it is troubling. In HN comment thread for another post, I had hoped that we could come up with a rating system like we have with Movies, TV, Apps, mediated by HTTP Headers. I feel that is all we actually need.

I use NextDNS to BLOCK porn sites, etc from my kids’ devices. I hope you aren’t changing your ethos as a company, although I don’t know, maybe your customers are changing and causing you to pivot. Because I don’t want any chance of this stu

Sorry just to specify, it was more like a 20 amp I think (I will verify), it wasn't like I was going way higher. I don't remember whether he ran another wire though. It was 5 years ago. Maybe I should not be spreading this anecdot

Maybe I'm not creative enough but I've tried this thought exercise with friends and it's a fun one. The question is, try to spend $1bn on stuff. Go. So then you start with big ticket items (like maybe a yacht or a house). Tha

Sure yeah, I was just clarifying that if the issue is 240v, etc, US houses have the feed coming in. Infrastructure-wise it's not an issue at all.

I thought you only needed thicker wires for higher amps? Should go without saying, but I am not a certified electrician :-) I only have a PhD from YouTube (Electroboom)

You can always have an electrician install a larger breaker for a particular circuit. I did that with my "server" area in my study, which was overkill cuz I barely pull 100w on it. But it cost nearly zero extra since he was doing

All American households get mains power at 240v (I'm missing some nuance here about poles and phases, so the electrical people can correct my terminology). It's often used for things like ACs, Clothes Dryers, Stoves, EV Chargers.

No idea... We've been perfectly happy to go to the Wawa-based Superchargers. They're clean, bright, and have a decent selection of things you'd stop for during a road trip. I think the longest we've spent at a Supercharg

Yep you make some good points. I will take my own advice on “intent matters” - and there’s been little care intent wise shown to actually study the impacts of these cuts. Which does make them feel more malicious.

Ok thanks, I will look into this. I may have said in another comment, that I was actually against most of these cuts. Those programs (like PEPFAR). I actually worked with USAID 20 years ago teaching programming classes in Romania and Serbia

Oops I pay $20/month. Not the $200 pro. With Claude, Pro is the $19/mo plan. And Max is the $100-$200/month plan. Naming confusion.

Smart way to probably also free up resources that are currently fragmented running those older models. They could all run the latest model and have more capacity.
