The problem is not production cost, but distribution. A litre of milk is paid at 20c to the producer (never has been cheaper) yet it’s 2€ at the store. The producer makes a few cents on it. The FoodCo is the one driving price up. Them and

I find the user experience of Apple Music to be subpar, and keeps pushing young genres in which I have zero interest. I use Cider on my desktop but mobile is still a challenge.

Nice. As someone who has seen a few Appian projects, something at a smaller scale is a nice niche for smaller teams. Quick q: about integrations, I have seen the Zapier features, but can you invoke external systems via api on a specific tas

I do this too (3 domains, Fastmail) For specific vendors where I am at the shop, I just make up an alias email with their name in it. For apps, services, I configured bitwarden to create email aliases on Fastmail, so they are linked to a se

My strategy is that if they reply “Atlas Shrugged”, I reply “Really? Nice to meet you! By chance my name is Atlas!”, then shrug and walk away. Let’s meet soon

Cool project. I missed that sound. Hearing it again makes me realize how patient my folks were with my midnight debugging sessions… On the other hand, when the author wanted to push Unicode on this, I felt old and immediately pictured Epson

But is it so much different from googling answers 20 years ago? Granted, it can do the write up for you, but if google landed you in a flat-earther web in 2024, was just as useful as GPT today… My gripe is that LLMs don’t reason, they searc

I think it’s peak at whatever X, but when you weight all activities in a software delivery project, the averaged impact is diluted, which might be in line with the author and studies presented (I have not read them yet) There is a significa

As the proud owner of a 200 usd iPhone SE (second hand) I agree. However that’s not what society thinks, looking how many people jump to the latest upgrade because it has (check notes) a new life-changing emoji generator

Agree. I would add that it is a bit of a perfect storm: - lower income families struggle for upwards mobility - we are moving ever more towards a full material world, where you need to have a lot of disposable income just to keep up (rememb

Not to pile on, but the linked article you presented backs their data on New AutoMotive’s Global Electric Vehicle Tracker, a UK based group fostering EV adoption. NAGEVT site only shows data for UK, is unclear which data sources they used,

I need to check that source but I guess is heavily per country. In Southern Europe is under 5%, south from the US border between 0 to 1 % (source: per country Car Makers Association report) Globally, if I recall, you need 20 years to replac

Just to clarify: I had to do an analysis on car markets across 10 countries in EU, Mexico and Latin America recently. If 100% of new vehicles were electric today, it would take 15 to 20 years to renew the whole fleet in those countries. Bu
