I have to imagine a lot of it evaporated because it wasn't being captured, and then others became runoff that may have gone out to sea if it had been raining too hard.

I don't see any issue with her being granted cofounder status if it is warranted. You just need to work out her equity share. That's more important than her status. It needs to be in line with her importance and the importance of

The biggest benefit of a smartwatch with a fuller OS is that it can give you more data. On my watch face, I have the weather, the AQI air quality rating, and the UV index. I'm outside a lot, so this is real-time data that I find very h

The allergies angle is interesting. I am doing allergy immunotherapy shots right now, and the first few weeks of doing them, I had the worst fatigue of my life. I just had no energy and low desire to do things. Once my immune system adjuste

You do not want a VR headset that requires headphones to operate. That's one more set of batteries to charge. It's one more thing to adjust when switching between users. The Quest is the same as the AVP. Both have surprisingly goo

I do have a Quest 3. I also have two OLED TVs, and no way I'd watch the Quest 3 over that. But I also own a 12.9-inch iPad Pro, and I'd much rather watch movies or a TV show on that. I'd also much rather watch on my desktop m

Estimates for November and December were also revised up, by a combined 126,000 jobs.

A lot of homes are not built with an obvious spot for a TV, especially a big one. Hence all of the people sticking TVs over their fireplaces (which is way too high for proper viewing).

Meta Quest's are basically video game devices. It's a much different market than AVP. Meta is selling hundreds of thousands of units a month, so I don't know if I'd say no one wants it either. It seems to be selling pret

This is true, but also these apps tend to be poor quality. I have a Quest 3, and I suspect a lot of the people who are thinking AVP and not Quest 3 haven't liked Meta's pitch. A lot of the metaverse stuff is silly. It was a poor p

I think this is 100% it for many companies. Predictions are Apple sells in the hundreds of thousands of units this year. There is no market any of these companies/products care about that has that small of a user base. Once Apple start

I used the Netflix app on my Meta Quest 3 and never tried it again. It's a bad app, the video quality isn't good, etc. Apple is going to have to prove to Netflix to support them (or build the app for them). If Apple sells several

Just having a full Web browser in your pocket was huge. Also, a touchscreen iPod! That was another massive killer app. I used to carry around a phone, PDA, and an iPod. Day 1, Apple allowed me to carry one device. And then add in a great We

The $500 headset can't really do this well. They may have demoed one in a store and realized this isn't a great experience. You will also not find a lot of people online recommending it either. I have a Quest 3, and I would much r

Sure, there are in any of the global cities. I'm in the DC area, so I know plenty of people who have money and live in apartments/condos. NYC is the same way. There are plenty of people in the Bay Area that this describes as well.

If you live with other people, the appeal is limited. I can see the appeal for my friends who live alone in small apartments. They can get this and a nice pair of headphones and have a great home theater experience. This is something that w

It's the opposite. Supposed advantages often get you into trouble. Constraints, in this case not being able to drive for eight-straight hours, is a good thing. Constraints are often a good thing because they introduce just enough frict

It's cost-cutting turtles all the way down. Any subcontractor without multiple clients is going to do the same kind of cost-cutting that the main company does.

I can only speak as a Christian, but a lot of the Bible and Christian teachings are kind of fascist. A lot of worshipping God, treating God and Jesus like King, God killing people, etc. Also, a lot of rules (many quite arbitrary and nonsens

EV stops have a big advantage in that they force you to get out and move around a bit. Sitting in a car all day is bad for you. Taking a break every few hours is good. Walking around during that break is ideal. You don't want to give y

Tim Cook is a pretty good CEO. Satya Nadella has turned Microsoft around from the Ballmer days.

Considering how much of car manufacturing is done by union workers, I don’t think you can make a good argument that it is practical. 90% of Swedish workers belong to a trade union.

I actually don't think sitting even more for working 12+ hour days and pulling all nights is good for any of this. I'd love to know more about the OP's health history and physical fitness. I agree that it is easier to work mo

DHH has become the textbook definition of needs to touch grass. He just can't help himself and his need to share his opinions. A lot of people feel Basecamp's products are outdated, but many kept using them out of goodwill, loyalt

The windows aren't bullet proof. I wouldn't be surprised if the non-window parts are in fact bullet proof, but bullet proof windows look a lot different (and worse) than what the Cybertruck has.

No. Creators got 55% of revenue on their channels. You are first and foremost stealing from them. Google has plenty of money.

6'3, 150 would be very lanky and thin looking. I'm 6'1, and my lean mass is more than that.

The data has to be really distorted because neither place is traditionally walkable outside of the tourist areas. But both show that you can make unwalkable areas highly walkable. People love going to Disney and being able to safely walk ar

Exercise is more effective at preventing type 2 diabetes than diet, and yet all we do is moralize at people about diet. We should be encouraging people to walk daily. This one simple trick would have profound impacts on our metabolic dysfun
