Isn't Proxmox a management layover over Debian and KVM? I doubt the kernel is even smaller.

This makes a case for engineering margins, maybe even running the numbers assuming a worse grade of steel or bolts than specified. Also worth remembering this building wasn't special. If this was a design or construction flaw that surf

There are multiple FDA-approved lab-grown meats on the market. You can literally go to a handful of restaurants and order lab-grown meat today. The production process is just expensive and it's getting scaled out.

I used to work for a Pricerunner competitor. Not Nextag, but they were the most well-known in the US. They're called "comparison shopping engines," and most were names people would barely remember. These companies got steamro

Anthropic must think that their moat isn't very large if they're this worried about distillation.

> but solid state storage similar to Nintendo Switch cards makes more sense to me These likely degrade in 5-10 years, and have you seen the price of NAND lately? AAA gaming is going to get to be out-of-reach because of storage costs.

It's not even the Nasdaq Composite, It's the Nasdaq 100. And yes, the Nasdaq 100 is a shitty index because Nasdaq vs. NYSE is a bit of an arbitrary, tradition-based way to get tech exposure. It's missing NYSE tech companies (

Matt Levine's take was essentially that if you're in the index fund game, you want the market. You don't pick and choose what parts of the market you want--that's active management. SPCX mostly isn't an issue beca

While this is probably bad, reading gets more credit than it should, especially when it gets to reading junk content, not engaging with the content, and escapism. A baseline level of reading is important, but beyond that, I'd rather ki

They're not necessarily "cooked," (but they certainly can be). Inflation is genuinely hard to calculate since it's different for everyone, goods and services purchased drift over time, and as you mentioned, that exact go

Did you just read my other comment about Doom, or is this a coincidence?

I feel like the modern, more relevant version is being Doom-complete...which is essentially that any fast enough device with a screen can run Doom, and someone will eventually make it run Doom.

It's sort of like how anything turing-complete can run any code ever.
