Their 2FA was broken in a way that required me to delete my account, which is a pain as now I have to redo my resume for applying to federal jobs. I had an old account which worked fine but when trying to access it again it always said my 2

As an EE/embedded dev the M4s are approaching a mature technology for the bog standard MCU driven products I work on. You can get a 180MHz processor with 1MB of RAM and 2MB of flash. For reading sensors and doing some lightweight appli

Depends on your audience. M4 is decidedly midrange to me. Modern low power would probably be an M0, to others it still means 8 bit AVR.

Possibly. Thiel has Clarium, “Thiel Capital” and “Thiel Macro” associated with his name. Weinstein was a managing director at Thiel Capital. I interviewed with Thiel Macro years ago when I got the story of the investors pulling out and the

That was maybe me? If not someone else had the exact same experience. Was an odd interview, took place at a mostly empty office building in the presidio. Afterwards I was wandering around in the fog trying to get a cell signal to call an Ub

The MX-30 was disappointing. If they can make an electric CX-5 equivalent that would probably be my next car. I like my Mazda 3 but my partner wants something bigger/4WD as a toy hauler.

It’s a touch screen but doesn’t work when the car is in motion unless you input the right code to get it in a developer/maintenance mode. I haven’t bothered as the knob is much more ergonomic. The software can be wonky, I have to reset

I had the privilege of visiting the van Gelder studio in high school. I asked him about analog vs digital and surprisingly he said he was all in on digital and spending his days remastering his old work with modern tools.

Rear view cameras are a required safety feature in the US now. As SUVs proliferated and pillars got thicker for crash safety cases of parents running over their toddlers increased.

This is not a rich school district. Many of the children live in multigenerational households, some with grandparents as primary caregivers. They can’t take an early retirement as you dismissively said. My friend will likely be fine, the pe

There’s a lot of nuance missing from this. Schools pose minimal risk when appropriate measures are taken. These measures are frequently not taken, a friend of mine just caught Covid from the school she works at last week. Masking and distan

They claim to work in the ICU where mortality would be much higher, 41% according to your linked article. I'm suspicious of the account as well but their experience is entirely possible.

That’s not really true that vaccination is always more protective, immunology is complex and there’s more interesting nuance to that. See the latest twiv with Shane Crotty, he goes into detail about how natural infection plus one shot creat

Paving over forests and wetlands to make more suburbs will not solve homelessness. I legitimately don’t understand how that seems like a more reasonable choice than infill, changing zoning, and public transit improvements within existing ur

Sure if you plan to pave over huge swaths of currently protected wilderness you can find more land. But there is no universe in which 280, 101, or 880 can be built to handle the extra demand that would cause. They couldn't adequately h

Ok, but we’re out of space to put suburbs in a reasonable commute distance of jobs. Add a new suburb in the broader Bay Area (which at this point means going all the way to Tracy) and all the highways and Bart get more strained. You didn’t

I don't really understand this take. I've never met anyone that was vociferously pro housing and wasn't also pro bike/public transit. Also if we need to build more housing, which I think we take as a given, building in t

It’s worse because it blurs what was a previously clear line. If the photos weren’t in iCloud, they couldn’t be scanned. In this new implementation Apple will only scan photos destined for iCloud, but they now have the capability to scan ph

This is not about compliance, the relevant law specifically says that companies are not required to proactively scan for CSAM.
