Who cares? This is a problem for podcast hosters like Spotify, but not for listeners. Listeners can just follow their usual podcasts and never see 99% of the stuff that is out there.

Thank you for the kind words. The plots were all created with Makie.jl [1] and lots of fiddling and manually writing code to get things right. Although I think Makie is great, I guess it would also be possible with other plotting libraries.

Well maybe it’s good to make it clear that it isn’t markdown to avoid confusion? Also Typst has less syntactic sugar which also has benefits. More generally, I am really impressed by Typst’s abstractions. I have typset my whole PhD thesis i

I don’t know where you get your information from but it seems to be having some bias. Many owners are very happy with the car, and report few build quality issues.

If I remember correctly, Model Y and Model 3s will start running the network next year in Texas and California, is the plan. The cybertaxi will be available later.

I donno. I think the truth lies somewhere in the middle. Yes in your examples they were not completely honest. That’s true. But they have been innovating and shipping real products too which really work in the real world. If I have to choos

Are we talking about Einstein? If I remember correctly, according to Walter Isaacson, Einstein managed to get so many good papers out not despite, but because he was not working for an university. It gave him more freedom to reject existi

In some sense it makes sense to award AI researchers on behalf of the physics community because I know many physics PhD’s who thank their job to AI; they work as data scientist now. Jokes aside, physics is a bit stuck because it’s hard to d

Yeah I get you. That sounds very frustrating indeed. I've had a roommate who just couldn't get "hired" as a roommate. And honestly there is nothing wrong with the guy. Perfectly social guy. He just had a bit awkward mann

Oversubscription is also an issue on wired networks. It might be a problem but usually you shouldn’t notice; on wired at least. What is your extremely low customer density source? In theory they could reduce beam size and throw more satelli

Can you go heavier? Heavy lifting is a lot of things but I wouldn’t call it boring.

I read somewhere someone who compared news to the presenters at a horse race. If you just look, it might be a boring uneventful race. But if you listen to the presenters, it’s very exciting. “Now horse A is in front!!! Oh wait. Horse B take

Even though I disagree with Shockley’s points, I don’t think we should do post mortem “kicking” like this. He was brilliant but everybody left him to create Intel and he was left with debt. (Mostly due to his own doing though, he was appare

Why would a wheel be ethically unacceptable? The example you’re replying to talks about tobacco companies and cancer. A wheel doesn’t cause cancer.

No, it is because incentives are misaligned and people care about getting cited. It doesn’t matter whether it’s correct or not.

Aren’t macro’s always very powerful but at the same time very tricky? I wouldn’t count the macro side into language complexity. It’s an add-on which you can but don’t have to use (I’m talking about creating macro’s here.)

60 times faster could mean 2 minutes instead of 2 hours, or 2 seconds instead of 2 minutes. How is that not mind blowing, or at least very useful (for specific uses)?

Ensure that you’re either increasing someone’s revenue or decreasing their costs. In both cases, it should be possible to somehow convince people to pay you. How exactly is a bit of an art and requires some creativity but should be possible
