I assume price would be the major factor. Also, as someone who knows nothing about e-bikes, but who knows "DJI makes good cheap drones and gimbals", they'd be pretty high on my list of "probably makes an ok product"

I'm super excited about how the apple private compute cloud stuff works -- I tried to build this using intel TXT (predecessor of SGX) and then SGX, and Intel has fucked up so hard and for so long that I'm excited by any new silico

If deploying this to end users, you may not want them to be able to footgun themselves/your org, and if you only partially trust the code, you might not want it to be able to easily turn these features on. It's not 100% (I'd

This is obviously different for everyone (and the general problem is fundamental to finite human lifetime and other resources). For me, I'm definitely putting more effort into things I'm relatively skilled in (both inherent, and d

I didn't realize HDHPs were still available in the US post-ACA, due to requirements that all plans cover certain minimum services 100% from the first dollar, making them kind of silly (it basically means there's a doughnut of appr

The annoying thing is the EDU versions (which allow programming) are substantially more expensive than the base versions (IDK if it's a constant ~$10-12k more, or just 3x the price -- I only have the EDU/ENT pricing on the Go2 dog

The (US native, presumably) ATC staff speak worse English than the (presumably) non-native English speaker pilots, at least from all the ATC clips I've heard -- JFK and NY region being about the worst. Combining that with bad recording

I'm intrigued by similar state-level laws being passed in the US; a lot of those seem unconstitutional (1A/free speech) in the US, unless incredibly narrowly tailored and banning publishing or other harms from use. More reinforcem

Just ordered, although the low price buckets it into "probably not worth it". I'd price it ~$10 and do a discount instead.

Also, do you know of startups taking advantage of TEA status (e.g. 99% of Puerto Rico) to lower the EB-5 investment requirement back down to $800k? (I didn't realize it had gotten up to $1.050mm; that's high!)

There are a bunch of scenarios where the US becomes an unpleasant place to be (eg 1860s, 1930s, 1970s) without collapsing, and where specific other places will have problems but probably won't be terrible, and for a given bundle of pre
