People say things like "Why do you want to build and maintain two codebases when you can maintain one?" but it's interesting that we're so bad at predicting or even understanding overhead. This applies to other domains —

Thanks, but if it's over a 25-year time period, shouldn't we consider the price of an EV bought at the beginning of the time period, not the end?

Thanks. Regarding pixel well depth, I suppose we can have a sensor with greater pixel size and low pixel count, like a 3840 x 2160 sensor in a full-frame camcorder. Since this would be sold as a video-oriented camera, lack of higher resolut

Interesting perspective. Are you expressing an opinion about "explicit is better than implicit", or is your point on a different axis? I suppose concise / implicit is fine when the thing that's being hidden can't go

If you lock your money in any asset, whether solar panels or a house, you're taking a bet on the future value of the asset. That, naturally, is a downside. As compared to investing in a fund of some kind that invests in a diversified m

I'm suggesting that app stores (iOS, Mac, Google Play) shouldn't require users to create an account just to download free apps. Partly for privacy, and partly because it's an unnecessary hurdle for users to jump over, and par

Good question, and we shouldn't need an account to download free apps, just as we don't on the desktop. Only when I download I paid app do I want to identify myself so that I can download it again.
