There is a Redshift serverless offering now, not sure how it compares though. I think it's not 100% there when it comes to not having to think about the underlying infra yourself...

It doesn't, but only because it polls relatively infrequently for biometric data. The increase in pulse or decrease in blood oxygen saturation is not likely to be captured if it lasts only a few seconds and the watch records a datapoin

This really resonated with me - I went through almost the same experience, with allergies and UARS almost destroying my life. The worst part about this for me was what you described as root causing self issues, something that we had to do w

Absolutely not true. Program maintainers can create immutable programs, most just choose not to. It's a user issue more so than a protocol issue.

Unfortunately, my dopamine seeking monkey brain would just open another browser and successfully procrastinate if the only thing stopping me were a chrome extension. That's why I use selfcontrol: https://selfcontrolapp.com&#

What? This is completely asinine. You're comparing a hardware company to a social media company.

I did. I loved it, and I am only superficially familiar with the chemistry being discussed in the book. It's quite eye opening!

I'm skeptical of that claim... It's natural to assume that the HTML obfuscation would also be useful for reducing the effectiveness of ad blocking tools which would presumably have a much more clear impact on FB's bottom line

I love the curmudgeonly comment on the blog post: > A "solo founder" should be too busy with real work to be writing articles like this. Amazing that they couldn't understand the article's marketing value

I believe Apple said they're recyclable and also made from recycled materials. Not ideal to have to replace the entire device, though

This just seems like a silly hoax... Carrier pigeons don't go to arbitrary destinations, they're capable of going to 2 places that they've already been familiarized with, maximum.

I tried wholeheartedly to migrate to using Joplin from apple notes so I could use a native client on more platforms than my phone + laptop, but it was frustrating in so many ways. S3 storage syncing frequently broke on the iOS app, simple a

He didn't outright deny it, but he was not acting in good faith when rallying against the mainstream perspective. I remember seeing an example where he specifically made an argument using a projection model that wasn't accurate, c

This is super interesting, most writeups I've seen similar to this focus more on hardening the server itself and not the adjacent OPSEC necessary like TOR best practices or hosting strategy.

I stopped reading when I saw the algorithm that is purportedly 'immune to SEO' relies entirely on metrics that are already heavily manipulated.

I think more like "someone wrote a check and there's no guarantee it won't bounce". So really, it's quite analogous to how 0conf works in practice.

I was going to say we don't recycle satellites by launching them to the moon for the same reason we don't recycle things on earth by sending them to the other side of the earth, but we do actually do that by sending recycling in t

It's pretty intuitive to also consider limits on lifespan as a function of conserving resources on a family or tribal level. At a certain point, the utility a population could gain from labor or knowledge of older members is outweighed

I'd say Dynamo is extremely good at reading high volume, with the appropriate access pattern. It's very efficient at retrieving huge amounts of well partitioned data using the data's keys, but scanning isn't so efficie
