In a sense that’s very true. However the biggest wrinkle is that most of your cells share a single common ancestor cell. If your body is a community of microbes, it’s mostly a village of close relatives, not a symbiote like coral.

So you're saying crypto will eventually race pass fiat and discover new regulations we don't have yet but will eventually need?

The cynical view is that this role used to be called “senior engineer”. However due to title inflation, it needed rebranding, and “staff” is the new name.

The original architects are also well positioned to understand the underlying pivot points of the design, the places where the design can most naturally be shifted towards a new direction rather than hacking around the edges.

This press piece is saying only research that advances DEI will be accepted. How many math papers on set theory do you know of whose results directly improve race relations?

The point is, Tesla choosing not to pursue the mass market is no reflection on how viable that market is. At Tesla volume, they are better off devoting their production capacity to the upmarket. The upmarket has better margins, so you sell

It isn’t perfect, but 120V outlets are not that bad for overnight charging, and pretty easy to add. Some 50kW chargers nearby can top you off when you need extra. Some claim it’s impossible to add such outlets to parking everywhere, but I’v

The economics just seem different. The batteries lose capacity with time, compared to ICE cars that wear out with miles.

Tesla gave up on the mass market vehicle because they can sell every Y and 3 they make. That has been going on since before the supply disruptions.

There might be disagreement on some details between groups, but at least within a group the agreed standard is both clear upfront and objective. This DEI standard currently sounds totally subjective with no guidance on what will pass muster

Such a great generalized insight. I’ve added the other criteria is winner take all conditions. The infighting over a small pie grows in intensity when only one person gets to take it home.

You’d have less fallout if you just delay giving them upgrades long past the point they are due.

One one hand i absolutely agree. But on the other, has anybody, Apple included, figured out any terribly useful apps for a watch that doesn’t already come built in or partner with a phone?

You may need to charge… but the Garmin uses something like ~10mAh/day? You could top off the watch for months with a single pair of AAA batteries.

You’re definitely no beer league athlete. I think “amateur athlete” used to be the right term here, before it gained the negative connotation. As for the target market, I’m torn whether Apple is seriously going after athletes or whether it’

RSUs are a very different story from options. That $300 RSU still has 33% of its value left; the option is worthless. This is one of the reasons the industry is moving toward RSUs. No repricing drama.

Datapoints for each night can help you isolate the causes of poor sleep in your life. An objective measure, even a flawed one, can help a lot in that process.

The best argument I’ve heard in favor of culling like this is that if it wasn’t worth doing two years ago, and wasn’t worth doing one year ago either, it’s probably never going to be worth doing. In this view, legitimately good ideas that n

Even most libertarians support strong contract enforcement, because it lubricates the free market. You can have a free market without, but binding contracts make it work much more efficiently. Truth in labeling & advertising should be

gpa in nationally ranked engineering schools is usually quite a bit lower than other departments, and a 4.0 is often unheard of. Varies with school.

The trick with helmets is when the risk takers are wearing them. Then wearing a helmet can become a signal you ride hard. I think that’s a good part of why helmets took over skiing in Colorado but not California. In Colorado, the extreme sk

Some of it is simple distance. Some of it is architectural choices because of the distance. A sharing domain that spans a large distance performs poorly because of the latency. Therefore domains are kept modest, but the consequence is cro

You are certainly right about renewables that are pre-inflection. I was thinking of solar and wind, which I understand are both in the steep part of the S curve.

I learned cursive, but rarely have cause to write more than a sentence or two with pen or pencil anymore. Anything long form is digital, such as a word doc. Even paper itself is used sparingly.

Learning cursive isn’t learning to write. As a kid I spent copious amounts of time learning to fit the sweep of my cursive to a rigid meter, and form them just so… it was closer to learning to draw than to write (which I could already do)

The ability to put down written word is a basic element of literacy. They need to learn some way. Perhaps you are saying they type in on-screen keyboards?

We can rephrase it - power is the ability to bring a lot of work capacity to bear, e.g. of other people.
