True. Google is much younger though. And its 50% are in line with the NASDAQ. Apple had a crazy run under Tim Cook. While Steve Jobs is rightfully remembered as a visionary who built one of the biggest companies in the world, over 90% of Ap

What changed five years ago, that Microsoft suddenly became so active again? I mostly forgot about them for almost two decades. From around 2002 to 2018, I did not use any of their products or services. And in my interactions with other ind

Hacker News is kind of ad based. Via the "Company X (YC YYYY) is hiring" posts. How does the community feel about this? Could this type of "native advertising" be a model for other websites too? On the one hand, it so mu

It's interesting to think about how the optimal strategy to land the lander would look like. If the distance to the moon was large, I would expect 4 phases: 1: Turn the lander towards the moon 2: Constant thrust towards the moon 3: Tur

I am currently looking into charting / business intelligence solutions, so I took a quick look at this one too. What I prefer here over Grafana is that it seems to be written in plain JavaScript. Which would make it much easier for me

This is pretty cool. I wonder what's the best way to have the presentation in a single file instead of using multiple files to switch between slides. My first approach would be to start each slide with something like # Slide 1

According to the first page of the letter, they have a pretty good track record. In 58 years, they outperformed the S&P500 39 times. That is 67% of the time, which according to R comes down to a p value of 0.01: binom.test(x=39, n

Yes, they work on iOS. Most browsers don't allow JavaScript in the address bar anymore. But in bookmarks, all browsers allow it.

I just tried it on Firefox on Android, and for me it works. In fact, it works both ways: I can click on "bookmarks" and then on the bookmarklet, and it gets executed on the current page. I can also start typing the bookmarklets na

You're welcome. By the way, in Chrome on Android, you can't execute bookmarklets from the bookmark menu. You need to give the bookmarklet a name. Say "Upsize". Then when you are on the page where you want to increase the

Is that void(...code...) syntax a good way to execute bookmarks? Also, your code is not urlencoded? I use javascript:(function(){...code...})() and urlencode the whole thing. I maintain this bookmarklet editor to easily convert code to book

Personally, I prefer bookmarklets over extensions and Tampermonkey. They work the same on Desktop, Android and iOS. So I can write my bookmarklet once and use it everywhere. Without installing anything. I also like that bookmarklets only ki

The problem with this seems to be the nonexistence of micropayments. As far as I know, there is no viable solution to pay $0.01. Which is a pitty, because $0.01 per page would be a CPM of $10 which is crazy high. For most publishers, that w

Publishers are in a tough spot these days. Especially small ones. On the one hand, there is no marketplace for unobtrusive ads without JavaScript. So if publishers use what is available (AdSense etc), half of their users will block the ads

Nice! https://jsfiddle.net/5gevzft8/1/ Looks like you cannot use a button in the dialog then though. As it somehow makes the dialog scroll to the bottom.

Have you tried it? Here in Firefox, it does not work. https://jsfiddle.net/t34wz6kx/ Also, using "position: fixed" will fail when the dialog is longer than the screen. Then the user cannot read it all, and if

I read most of Paul Graham's essays and the core theories I associate with him are: 1: As a founder it is more important to be competent and productive than to seem competent and productive. 2: It is an advantage to trust your own comp

I haven't looked into F# pipelines for a while, because they seemed so bloated to me that it hurts. Isn't it that this: a = b|>c(%,7)|>d(%) Becomes something like this in F# pipes? a = b|>(b)=>c(b,7)|&gt

I wonder if "%" placeholder is the right approach. It makes the code longer in most cases. Without pipes: a = d(c(b)) With pipes in the proposed form: a = b|>c(%)|>d(%) My first approach to design it would

QC20 are not an option for me because of the extra device that is built into the cord close to where you plug it into the mp3-player. It makes handling of the whole system cumbersome. I guess the noise-cancelling has to be built into the mp

It is a nice device, but I would be missing noise-cancelling when using the Sansa Clip+. Noise-cancelling is a must-have for me. It significantly increases quality of life to have it with you, wherever you go. And I like the high-quality lo

I am a huge fan of standalone mp3-players. So much so, that at some point I made a comparison site for mp3-players. But nobody cared. I made comparison sites for smartphones, laptops and monitors which became quite popular. But for mp3-play
