Thats the difference between investing and gambling. I sleep very well with my investments and ignore the daily / hourly fluctuations.

I recently read "The Once and Future World; Nature As It Was, As It Is, As It Could Be" and basically everything think as nature is an illusion. We humans have decimated every species on the planet. The planet used to be teaming w

Thats a lot of work, and you have property taxes and maintenance. An index fund gives me 8% without lifting a finger and is very liquid while a house isn't.

Its a matter of where we spend dollars. Given a finite number of dollars, do you spend it curing prostate cancer with a 95% survival rate, or do you spend it curing colon cancer with a 57% survival rate?

You die with prostate cancer, not from it. It has a 95% survival rate.

I thought microcode was an artifact of CISC architectures, while the Arm is a RISC architecture.

That's my experience as well. Most deadlines are bogus. The ones that are real are missed because management didn't fund the project appropriately, or started the the project way too late. I've worked in too many organization

The author makes it sound like this is a bad thing, its not. Clinical trials are extremely expensive, if every device manufacturer had to do a clinical trial many devices would never see the light of day. This is a cost vs benefit trade-off

An SD card is using contact pins to make the connection, which is susceptible to dirt and vibration. eMMC is soldered to the board so you no-longer need to worry about environmental and mechanical disturbances. The eMMC has a known supply c

I don't think we are alone. We are just separated by enormous amount of distance, and inter-solar system travel isn't feasible.

I think there is a great filter. The trait that makes a species grabby is also the trait that leads to its downfall. They end up destroying their home ecosystem before they can achieve inter-solarsystem travel, wiping themselves out.

Qobuz sells lossless FLAC files. I use their streaming service and will then buy albums if they are something I want to preserve. They also have excellent human curation.

I work in design services, there has a been a big up tick in people asking to add "AI" to their product, or asking "can we do this with 'AI' ". Its a meaningless magical box to bill for. Don't get me wrong

A conformal coating is like putting a circuit board in a plastic bag. In this application they applied it around the connectors. If you remove the connectors, the seal is broken. If you break the seal and submerge the board in water you wil

If you pull the plug, you break the seal. Water will be able to make contact with the connectors and create shorts between the signals.
