4G used clever ideas to get much better practical spectrum efficiency than people thought was possible... At the cost of very expensive infrastructure. The biggest selling point to carriers was standalone 5G networks that were cheaper t

From A.I. I’d say 10^-3 in terms of flashy stuff like what happens in The Terminator , The Matrix or Twelve Monkeys . Somewhat higher if you mean “broken civilization”, “lost purpose” or the like but A.I. is probably just a stop on the

The SSRI is not unusual, in fact it is supposed to be the first line for anxiety. Propranolol is normal for performance anxiety that manifests physically. Myself I had terrible anxiety when I was younger that came out of my schizotypy. I

A similar disease comes out of an industry being overly concentrated in a single geography. For instance Firefox could keep failing and losing market share for decades because Google knows politicians will be stupid enough to believe that

Not everything from China is crap. I'm a big fan of Chinese lenses. I reach for Japanese and German lenses when I want to take the highest quality photographs that look like the photographs all the other photographers take. When I wa

(1) Shop Pay is one of the services that I’ve seen grow fastest in market share ever. Like in the last six months it seems like almost every independent online store sees my phone number and offers me a text to pay via shop. (2) Tailwind i

I have a biofeedback hobby and have done experiments with HRV. R-R intervals per pulse are quite useful. 5s reporting intervals are too long. Of course I use a EKG Polar Monitor although the literature seems to think a quality PPG or eve

It’s hard to name a more pathological market than office suites. You have Microsoft which is lackadaisical about the subject, like maybe they think Office is a place to stuff with thoroughly unwanted AI features. The rest of the market is

I dunno, I was trying to develop something 10 years ahead of its time 10 years ago and either facing the problems that people are facing now with AI or anticipating that I would face those problems. I had endless arguments with people over

I can't complain. I live near a small city that was showing this film at a small and intimate cinema downtown and and at a multiplex at the mall. So there's competition and at the downtown cinema I showed up at the start time

10 years ago I heard “you’d better read all the floppy disks you’ve got now because you won’t be able to do it later.” You might do better with better hardware, you might not. This thing can get at the raw data https://en.wikip

I went down a rabbit hole circa 2015 sketching out a system which was going to solve the language + world model problem which of course only needed to be partially implemented to solve a specific family of problems. In a broad sense think

Guitars don't seem to be like that. Like sometimes my son is talking with my son about his latest guitar with my wife and that guitar is newer than the guitar that my wife thinks is his latest guitar. If he hasn't bought a new g

I'd say you put the cart before the horse. Commercially viable technology is "superhuman" in some sense. That is, tractors and combine harvesters changed everything in agriculture because... they are superhuman. Bulldozers

I can't picture people being "shocked" by this. Kiyosaki always said you should be aggressive about using leverage.

I had a phase when we bought several rugs at the price point you're talking about and also found some "subprime" sources of rugs that were authentic but not so go good and much more affordable. Then I had a house full of orie

Reminds me of the poorly coached American football team I saw that gave up 150 yards in penalties and got “offsides” so many times I thought it was the other kind of football.

Marketing is hard. I think the biggest argument I've seen between sales people is "Do you sell something that will increase the customer's revenue or reduce their costs?" For a well established business saving $1 in cost
