This has always been interesting for me, as I think I have aphantasia but also can vividly experience taste in the same manner as if I'm eating foods. In other words, if I think about, say, spaghetti & meatballs, I can feel the e

I’ve recently been caught up on noodling on the combinatorics of cooking food. I wonder if a structured recipe format would be helpful to explore the ‘solution space’ of any given dish. For example, think of all the decisions required to sp

Interesting. Also allows for some fun ‘expansion’ in recipes. A leaf node may be ‘chicken stock’ but you could link to a recipe that boils down to that one ‘chicken stock’ node if you want to DIY it.

SRBs were in fact reusable.

Think of the word ‘reusable’ in this case as less a binary descriptor but more of a scale of reusability. Yes, both systems are reusable, but there are key differences in the refurbishment of the systems that partly explains the cost differ

Personally, it’s wild to me to think that the ‘freedom’ to eat meat is ever in question. It’d take such a ridiculously over-the-top totalitarian move to make something like that happen. I just don’t see it as possible, it’d be like banning

I think Apple probably already knows what the 2nd or 3rd gen look like mostly now, anyway. They most likely don’t commit to a product line like Vision without a multi year roadmap in place, and have to make a cut line eventually to launch v

Yeah there should definitely be a better governance structure preventing employee access without a structural justification like a law enforcement request, customer service request, etc. As an owner of a model Y, I’m beyond pissed off they’

By selling soap for a loss for longer than the competitors can stomach. If you have 10 businesses making $100M/yr, you can lose $1B/yr on soap (by selling a $2 bar for $1) and get a ton of customers who buy your cheaper soap. Even

I feel like generative AI interfaces should use a font like this for code. It can give a subtle 'hmm maybe I should double check this' vibe.

There’s a big difference between a query for a fact and a query for a problem. Search engines probably make the big bucks on the latter (users with problems likely spend $ to solve them). I can see the middle man affiliate blog doing poorly

All of those ‘bad’ thing in launches serve a marketing purpose. Scarcity makes consumers think something is in demand. Additionally, every day of stockpiled inventory costs money.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. GP made a decent effort to try to find this clause, couldn't, and you're effectively claiming they're full of it because it's gotta be in there. A more hacker-newsy wa

I’ve always been surprised there aren’t haptic gloves with accurate feedback for VR/AR. It feels kludgy to hold a big plastic brick. Problem is, I just don’t know where to start cracking the nut, never had any hardware experience.

(GP here) I generally agree with this. It's why I wrote 'in the eyes of most'. IMO liberals are bad at defining their own opinions in the court of public opinion, and often are viewed as !Conservative, even if their views are

So what’s your proposal? Generally the #1 problem faced by homeless people is a lack of housing. Issues 2-10 will require support and help as well if we care about rehabilitation and reentry into society. Even if flawed, giving these people
