It sounds reasonable to anyone who doesn't work with macro data to say that "a few billionaires" cannot have a measurable effect. There are approximately one million physicians earning an average income of about $300k. That a

This is a very well-written post. Ever since this program has been announced I have struggled with talking about the implications succinctly. Online, I never know if an interlocutor is even arguing in good faith, but even in person it'

While possible, look at lumber prices now[1] in the context of articles from April saying that the high prices would persist. Economists who study these phenomena tend to be a better guide than reporting that is in the middle of reacting to

I stopped my Apple Music subscription and downgraded iCloud to free, then donated a year of those fees to the EFF. $13/month is nothing to Apple, and I really regret it since photos in iCloud is really convenient, however it feels unet

Purple Air already has pretty good coverage of Lake Michigan[1]. They also have good coverage in my area, but when wildfire smoke was bad in CA last year I spread out four PM2.5 sensors outside and two inside using Home Assistant/ESPHo

The Purple Air network and their map is great. Each has two Plantower PMS5003 sensors for redundancy or accuracy. However, you can purchase the Plantower sensors yourself at about $15/unit, which could help with the costs when you&#x27

What if you used something like Synergy so that the mouse and keyboard input is shared over networking between host and guest rather than the virtual USB interface?

Optimizing the wingtip on a 747 actually sounds interesting, and it's the sort of thing that could meaningfully affect the world. It might even prevent more wars than the SR-71 program in terms of lessening ecological and environmental

The incumbent ISP would have eventually had to upgrade to gigabit anyway. Maybe they were waiting until the same upgrade would cost $2M instead of $6M. Clearly, they revised their schedule because decades of revenue streams, even from a sma

I pay for YouTube, and can't believe people feel their time watching commercials is worth less than $10/month. I'd probably pay more to not be datamined by Google, too. Really I'd even consider creating a FaceBbook accou

I'd go with an iPad over a MacBook Air, especially for the much better FaceTime camera. My parents (~80) use iPad Airs and thought the Pencil looked like a silly product until I convinced them to try using mine for a few days. The curr

Strategically, it is a barrier to entry for small competitors who can't afford the legal defense. That doesn't mean that Apple and Google are intentionally trying to preserve the legal environment for patent trolls to operate, but

Though 1491 was published 15 years ago, it seemed both well-sourced and restrained in its claims. Whereas there may have been dense towns up and down the east coast in the 1400s, by the 1600s when the pilgrims arrived, and when Manhattan
