Interesting, thanks for sharing. > So how to know a mask is safe? Check whether the mask has a one-way breathing system, verify that one-way valves are in place both in the snorkel as well as in the orinasal mask section, and last but no

I tried Apple Music when I realized the HomePod Mini can’t play songs from Spotify. Try as I might, Apple Music just didn’t cut it for me. The biggest annoyance was the playlists and discovery features. It was MUCH harder to find a playlist

I can’t figure it out on Premium either, but if it’s actually just removed for free listeners then maybe it’s a money thing. Perhaps hiding direct song access pushes people to listen to music with cheaper royalties or something.

I’m also frustrated by this change. Very annoying that you can’t see all the songs by an artist.

Seems like this is a feature you could demand if you were a big enough client of their enterprise products. Better yet, get a critical mass of big clients together and push for it. You could probably do this by showing up at a product-speci

what the point of things mysteriously appearing if they can't also mysteriously disappear again? You only want permanently observable mysteries? If you want more fun inexplicable stuff in the world, go put some out there! Go yarn bomb

Energy storage is hard. We'll need to iterate firefighting techniques to handle large batteries, just like we need to work on third-party repair for BEV and battery recycling programs. Fortunately these are all relatively straightforwa

Agree. Markets and prices are super useful tools, but they must be constructed thoughtfully and maintained rigorously. Property rights must be refactored to allow price discovery. Regulators must price in externalities by force of law. Corr

MLops is a pretty hot area right now. The industry is trying to figure out how to engineer these things in a robust way. It’s not ubiquitous at all yet. There are lots of tools that wrap K8s and help you train models, but trying in DataOps

The whole “right to repair” thing gets a lot of traction with this crowd. One of the worst offenders is John Deere, which won’t let you repair your own tractor. Vehicles are mostly software now so tinkering with them is basically criminaliz

Yes. Figuring out what a program SHOULD do is often as hard as figuring out how to actually do it. The relative difficulty shifts depending how far you are from the real world. The closer your project is to actual people doing actual work,

Keybase does way more than just the messaging. Fundamentally it's a really cool solution to the digital identity problem. With that solved, they built a lot of useful tools around those identities, ranging from secure messaging to secu

Maybe you could get those advantages in a practical and safe way with a recall mechanism. You’d have the standard representative, multi-year-term for most stuff, but a continuous recall poll (with a fairly high bar). This would essentially
