Yeah I get that, but I usually listen to his podcast when I'm working in the garage or something, so I don't mind periods of less-than-interesting conversation. Though at the end of the day, there are enough gems in his conversati

People find him boring. His style turned me off in the beginning, but now it’s just kinda become his shtick. My girlfriend makes fun of him cause she thinks he sounds like a robot trying to understand the human experience. He asks a lot of

Hard disagree about the hour length. Sometimes the interviews drag on with nothing to show for, but other times I don’t want the interview to end. I think the unique success of his (and Rogan’s) podcast shows that there is an audience for t

He’s active on his subreddit, that would probably be your best bet.

It depends on the interview but most of his discussions are genuinely unique. Who else is doing relatively in-depth, multi-hour conversations with people at the top of their fields? Rogan is the only one that comes to mind, but he doesn’t h

Amazon stores do this. Also Uniqlo has a really cool approach where each item tag has an RFID chip and you just place your entire bag into the scanner and it automatically detects all your items.

Of all the services to complain about, one-click checkout should be near the bottom of the list. For the users, it provides a great UX and prevents the need to give your personal/CC info to every random site that you wish to purchase f

I think you're missing the context of this discussion. Of course there are many places without coverage, but the idea that you will be in these places for extended periods of time, working and taking calls, is nowhere close to reality

I do a ton of backpacking/camping/overlanding/etc and most places you can reach by car have at least some kind of reception. It's not like you will always be 100% off the grid. If you just need a way to stay in touch, on

Except their network is extremely limited in capacity. 4G/5G is a much better solution for 99.9% of use-cases. Starlink is better for the extremely rural locations where installing a tower just isn't feasible. I have a pretty rura

1kW portable battery, connected to a 100w solar panel, should guarantee you indefinite power in most places. Just a 1kW battery should easily be enough to power an M1 Macbook for a week's worth of work.
