Solid list. I'll disagree this. > People who stress over code style, linting rules, or other minutia are insane weirdos We use Black for Python, Prettier/Standard for Typescript. Code is readable across developers and there is

Why does it have to scale? Doesn’t a CDN solve most scaling issues for a content site.

Pretty cool. Fresh Direct got started early and they rewired the entire supply chain. That's a tall order. Instacart and the local grocery store should be able to work together to make incremental changes to what they are doing today.

Very cool video! Ocado is hardly a startup though. It’s a pretty big public company now.

I don’t understand why there aren’t ghost groceries, similar to ghost kitchens or warehouses. Delivery is now large enough that having someone walk around a large store optimized for display, one order at a time, is super inefficient. Just

Bit disingenuous. Apple doesn’t own podcasts like Twitter and YouTube own their platforms, but it’s definitely the dominant directory. Delisting should reduce distribution some.

I had seen some reports in media that Operation Warp Speed was a big success. Nothing looks farther from the truth. Other than throwing around a bunch of money, this organization appears to have achieved little.

I have been trying to find out why the supply of mRNA is limited. This article gives me hope that it can be scaled up with the right focus. As long as there is no fundamental science to be discovered, industrial processes can be scaled with

Strangely, I almost never allow YouTube embeds (or for that matter any embeds) using uMatrix. I click the pop out link that appears in its place.

The CEO of a semiconductor company needs to have an engineering background, IMO. The tech is too complex and too important to the business to have a CEO who doesn't understand the nuances. Wish Pat all the success at Intel. We need Int

I'm not letting my kid watch any Disney. They're just content marketing for merch and theme parks.

Just show people what I watch! Joking aside, I think they have some sharp minds that can tackle this.

YouTube could take its engagement algorithm down a notch, thus reducing radicalization by many orders of magnitude. Otherwise, it's just playing whack-a-mole.

Sounds a lot like TrueDelta.com that sadly went out of business. I used TrueDelta for car reviews when I was buying one many years ago.

I think developed countries, but US in particular, are more vulnerable to cyber attacks than developing countries (with possible exception of China). Many of the developing countries still have manual processes and controls in place, given

Having done some IAC myself, I’m struggling to see how this would work for anything but the simplest architecture. It’s like all the visual programming languages that become unusable as soon as the program achieves a bit of complexity.

If it's individuals doing the cutting, this would be a correct diagnosis. My understanding is that it's rather large corporations in weak legal regimes that are the main driver of this. Incentives for them may be different.

It didn't take me long to disable GitHub dark mode. It is not made for quick reading. They should talk to the people who did dark mode for VS Code. After all it's all MS.

Not three middlemen in every transaction. At most two. Everyone needs ~30% cut. 1.3 * 1.3 * 1.3 = 2.2

Everyone is so focused on making money that they're missing the foundations of that money-making collapsing underneath them. When the society no longer operates on rule-of-law, and people are impoverished, there is no market anymore.

DoorDash will never be profitable, because there are three businesses that need a cut from a sale: driver, restaurant, and doordash. That just makes it very expensive.
