Is that approach not entirely just an opinion of yours though? How can you state so firmly (in opposition to many here) that "you're practically guaranteeing permanent under-correction". I think that statement is only true i

I think it was Joe Rogan who mentioned a similar point where, until a goal is reached those who want equity and those who just want a position of power are pointed in the exact same direction. It is only once the goal is reached that the d

Apparently GPU prices are being distorted by this gold rush. Gamer forums are learning what Etherium is these days.

I've mentioned it before, but it's frustrating how linked 'freedom' and 'free' are. If you buy into the security walled garden, you must too accept the commercial walled garden. I don't think those t

Don't forget another big differentiator of FB from a bunch of others at the same time was having a few (accidental? intentional?) very dark psychological patterns. At the time, real names were not commonly used online. That coupled wi

An important nuance between the idea that you should be trying to solve a problem vs your problem. Identifying your problem gets you aimed correctly and can be a significant insight, but if you don't accept feedback by dint of de

Pretty cool lineup. Even just a few speakers in, it's clear for as much commonality as exist between companies and founders, there are also a lot of differences in how to successfully approach different industries. It's validating

This is likely why they have the, "please don't" shut down your site" line in the letter. A dodge to shift their original intent away from that kind of liability.

If you have a jailbroken device you can actually remove all app labels completely - it's gorgeous. I picked up a friend's iphone and felt completely overwhelmed by all the useless text everywhere.

All the more reason the blog is so useful. I'd hate to think with all the modern technology around us that the house I live in 'just doesn't feel right' because it was not built employing the past dozen millennia-worth

If we go back to some philosophical roots, Facebook as a company and those who control it (may) effectively have a monopoly on the "marketplace of ideas". This doesn't mean they are abusing that power, nor that the monopoly

Huh, that's an interesting thought. Imagine Cupertino had (nearly) finished designing this sleek machine, thought it was a wonderful answer to refresh their Mac Pro, then they get completely railed in January for failing to provide pro

Thunderbolt promised there would be external GPUs, but IIRC there were licensing and corporate disputes that prevented such hardware from ever materializing ( after the design and debut of the Mac Pro). But it definitely was the promise o

That was the exact statement made about the Mac Pro when it was released in 2013. Look how well that went.

I guess the better way to ask is when do those effects dominate rather than merely effect. At what point do structure and feature type need to actually change?

And last time I checked into it, neither has much to do with 7 or 10 nanometers. The 'feature sizes' of old are not actually on that scale, rather it's more a measure (read: marketing speak) of resolution than of feature siz

Not really. A single organism (outside of the human race) cannot call the full force of an entire 'environment' against another species. And species (outside of humans) must abide by natural laws of energy transfer - for every a
