How do you have anecdotal opinion on this o3 model that hasn’t been publicly released yet?

The trainers used by many people on Zwift (eg. the Wahoo Kickr) actually read out pretty accurate power numbers. The classic Peloton is basically a mechanical device with sensors attached - and none of those sensors are a power meter. The p

Sure, overall you’re going to have a better experience if you can just roll with whatever happens and enjoy it (true in life and cinema). I think that at some level, when I’m consuming fiction, in the back of my head I’m learning the “rules

The money faucet is search ads. If you aren’t an active user you aren’t clicking on search ads.

My point is that only a fraction of user data collection is done for the purpose of ad targeting. So whether or not ad targeting should be banned for ethical reasons, such a ban is not a replacement for regulations of user data collection l

Measurement of conversions (ie. did somebody make a purchase after clicking the ad) is even more economically significant than targeting, and this is where ad publishers are most afraid of losing revenue due to privacy rules. The popular co

I live in a neighborhood with impacted parking that’s poorly served by the local government. People keep parking in front of my driveway and blocking me in. If I call the cops they ignore me. If I call the tow company they come and tow away

If this were right, you could cure your obesity by mixing the right multivitamin into your food? It seems like if fixing some nutrient deficiency were all it took, we’d have figured it out ages ago.

Duffy did testify against FTX’s proposal in Congress back in May: https://www.cmegroup.com/content/dam/cmegroup/media-room/spe... It’s pretty strongly worded: > FTX’s Proposal is glaringly deficient a

I don’t get it. What makes it worth staying 1-2 years, but not 2-3 years? What happens at 2 years that makes you want to do the job before and not want to do it after? If you never like your job I don’t think switching every 2 years helps.

School shootings kill dozens of people per year in the US, it’s a similar magnitude risk as lightning strikes or train crashes. Infant mortality in the US is more common and indicative of problems that affect a lot of people. Namely, inequa

I’ve encountered a bunch of people with that sort of background working that kind of job, it’s a real thing.

Inflation means there is too much demand in the economy compared to the supply (of goods and labor). Decreased retirement funds are one mechanism by which asset price reductions can lead to people consuming less and working more. More broad

Sure Bluetooth will play the audio, but the app has a bunch of other controls: choosing an episode, skipping commercials, adjusting playback speed, etc. I’ve used that and it’s a big step backward to the 2000’s. I end up wanting to go on my

It’s kind of lame to not be able to make use of the huge catalog of apps that integrate with Android Auto and CarPlay. For example, I use a podcast app that’s on iOS and Android. It has worked seamlessly across multiple phones and cars for

It’s true of many good investment strategies that if you retroactively ignore the best winners (without also ignoring the worst losers) that your measure of performance drops dramatically.

This sounds interesting, but there’s not enough detail for me to understand what you mean. Care to elaborate?

I’m not a fan of the guidelines myself (too carb-heavy, IMO). However I don’t think obesity and diabetes are rampant among people who eat 2000 calories and exercise 30 minutes per day.

If your employer wants you to have Slack on a phone, they should buy you a phone. That’s been my situation across multiple employers for 5+ years. I plug the same monitor and mouse into a work computer and a personal computer. This isn’t ha

If I approve of two candidates, but I like one more than the other, approval voting doesn’t seem to allow me to express that preference. Do I vote for both candidates, or only the one I like the most? As a naive voter who isn’t going to res

It’s a widely accepted fact that Iraq had a chemical weapons program before the Persian Gulf War. Iraq and the UN cooperated to dismantle that program in the early 90’s. There was disagreement about whether that effort was exhaustive. The B

This is the best pro-bitcoin argument I’ve heard in a long time! One big question I have is why bitcoin specifically has the value and not other cryptocurrencies. Others provide the same technical security guarantees. Bitcoin has a lot of

Wait, really? Quota are recorded by code that must be changed by pull request, not an entry in a db? That sounds like an insane waste of engineer time.

Heroku had developer mindshare 10+ years ago that could, in some alternate universe, have made it end up competitive with AWS/GCP/Azure. Heroku is probably worth a billion dollars, which is impressive, but it could have been a hun

I don’t think this is right. I could use my AirPods to secretly record audio, and nobody seems to mind.

You can connect the Google mesh routers together with Ethernet. I’d guess other competing products will do the same. It’s cheaper and much simpler than a full Ubiquiti setup for a few access points.
