Do the other offerings you're refering to use tailwind css? In that case I'm also paying for continued development by the tailwind team, unlike the free offerings. I don't mind that free toolkits use tailwind, that's the

> I'm still amazed they're asking for $299 for this! That’s like the cost of 1 front end developer day, and you get so many useful components + future updates. If you see it as a business expense it’s great value.

The time I would spend just thinking about how to structure things is more expensive than paying the one time fee for tailwind ui. I think it’s great value amd have already gotten a multiple out of it.

Do you have any data to support the statement that batteries depreciate a lot faster than the car? Tesla guarantees the battery for 8 years or 192,000km. If the battery degraded to below 80% of spec, they replace it for free. Meaning that p

I agree with your statistics and want to add extra context that these statistics are about (US?) _startups_. There are a lot of companies being started that don't pursue huge growth. I believe they are sometimes referred to as "mo

coops usually seem like a net-win for everyone. If you ban mergers, that probably also impacts co-operations. Joint-ventures might also be a postive. I can think of ARM, and the alignment in the automotive industry to standardise parts and

I see the resemblance, but for perpetual motion machines, we have an actual physical law, the 2nd law of thermodynamics, that makes it impossible. As far as I know, we can't yet disprove that a self-improving AI will become more intell

What type of product was that successful team working on? I believe this can work wonderfully if the developers are close enough to the user, eg: building a tool for devs like github. But if the product and the users are alien to the develo

The knock-offs I’ve handled recently are still terrible. They don’t fit well. No satisfying click. The colors feel off.. I wanted to like the cheaper brands but none of them have the same Lego engineering quality. We dusted off some of my o

Oh my. I remember those sets! They were glorious indeed. Do you have the lego number of those sets? Or the name? Ps: I’m now taking a picture of every lego box I buy for my kids. That way I have an archive with all the numbers. That way we

Apple has good uniform hardware to enable this, but they are a product company and an “AI studio” would not fit their usual definition of a product. I do hope they are considering going in that direction though.

I was doubting for a while until I took a test drive. You can ask for the last test drive on Saturday evening and keep it till Monday morning. At least here in Belgium that works and you get to properly test it. Which helped to try out the

I do have the keycard in my wallet but often travel without it. On longer trips, my wife is usually with us so we have two phone keys and the likelihood of both of us forgetting to charge are slim ( also, the wireless pads in the car is whe

My personal opinion: 1. The navigation works really well for me. Including routing via superchargers 2. The UX of not needing a key. The bluetooth phone key works so much more reliably than other car manufacturers (n=1) 3. The screen is ver

What do you mean “swapped in”? A large part of the propellant is used by the time the tank is up in space. The plan is to transfer the remaining (10%?) of fuel.

Blood tests are pretty quick and reveal a lot. Especially vitamin levels, inflammation, some cancer markers, … We get our teeth checked once or twice a year. I honestly think we’d catch a lot if we did the same with blood tests. We’d probab

My concern is that an "evil" AI doesn't even realise or chose to be "evil". Just like the fact that the youtube or facebook algoritms don't realise they might be causing harm to humans. The AI might just be run

I would actually argue that yes, humans _have_ conquered the world. As in: we are now at the top of the food chain and decide which habitats and which animals get to live and which don't. Because we are the most intelligent being on th

Sure, but there is still a risk that World War 3 will only end when all humans are dead. There is still a risk that one side will start to use nukes, and provoque a response. And that's in a human vs human war where we generally do wan

The missile most certainly has a terminal radar to re-acquire the target after cruising close enough. In your analogy, you're firing a bullet in the right direction that can look and steer itself to the sniper.

But that's just not going to work in the real world is it? If a country uses military force in another country, that's a declaration of war. We'll never convince every single country from banning AI research. And even if we d

I'd love to get some closure in my lifetime about Satoshi and the creation of Bitcoin. Which human(s) actually wrote the paper and the initial code? Afaik that's still an unsolved mystery with several competing theories.

Some of the gizmos were useful in my opinion: Central locking, power windows, navigation (before our phones did it), power steering. Lots of engine efficiencies reduced fuel usage.

Right, that is cool, but unrelated to the OP of using NVME directly and bypassing the filesystem. Or does MySQL have a storage driver that talks directly on the NVME level? (I haven't used MySQL in more than a decade, mostly PostgerSQL

Is that discussion/implementation of nvme available somewhere in public? https://github.com/rails/solid_cache didn't include anything about NVME that I could find.
