it's less about what foods to eat and more about eating much less: one modest-sized meal a day. that's all we "need". we eat too much of everything and our bodies are not evolved for such excess. this is literally the bi

no one should worry about CO₂ at all in their homes or offices. only workers in certain industries/factories, where CO₂ can get several orders of magnitude higher, need to be concerned at all about it. you (here and in your marketing

now that physical branches are not really a differentiator of big banks, a couple hours of your time spread out over a couple months is totally worth the switch to a credit union in lower fees, better service, and supporting a more local ec

i've played with nesting on firefox and, much like the :has() selector, it seems good enough for the 80% case, so i wish they'd unflag it so we could get the clock started on having it be commonplace in a year or two to use it con

safari and chrome have had :has() for a while, but it's behind a flag in firefox. the firefox version is good enough that i wish they'd unflag it already (as in, it's good enough to handle this particular input/label iss

yah, would be nice if it were baked into html itself, but at least the javascript isn't complicated, and can be put in an `onclick` attribute: <button onclick="document.querySelector('#my-dialog').showModal();&quo

visible is a good deal as long as your area isn't oversubscribed for verizon (luckily mine isn't). any reason why the watches have to be completely standalone? does the family setup not work for having multiple watches managed by

again, CO₂ doesn't matter, despite the mediopolitical hysteria over it. it's a gas that life depends on and is well-adapted to. but pollution has been killing millions of people a year for at least a hundred years already and will

instead you get to breathe in that sweet, sweet tire dust, which hybrids and EVs tend to make more of because they're typically heavier than their ICE counterparts. but until the electrical grid is moved to cleaner sources (including n

that's an astute observation. i think the current administration designed this legislation for maximum airtime by trying to go all-in on debt forgiveness, without any conviction about whether it could actually withstand challenge. if t

you've done a great job on the overall UI/UX, but as always, for me the question is where and how the product fits in the overall marketplace. this is true even for free/open source products, as it's hard to maintain mom

i don't have rigorous data at hand, but browsers and mobile hardware are now good enough that most apps are just fine being developed using cross-platform web tech rather than java or swift. plus, apps no longer attract and retain user

not sure what point you're making here, but my point was that there is room for little PE, but not big PE, because little PE can have the effect of making capital more efficient for the overall economy. it's the same with arbitrag

by clairity 3y ago
to be clear, PE isn't always purely extractive, but when it is, it can be highly destructive. sometimes a business is so mismanaged that debt (and the pressure it adds) and new management is all that is needed to right the ship. PE its

i think if rails continues to push hotwire (turbo + stimulus, and perhaps strada?) and get a coherent story on view components, it will continue to take mindshare from the js hype of the last decade. mobile dev is in decline, and browser ma

spacex, as far as i can tell, is a research company that launches satellites to fuel its space exploration research. the research side couldn't stand alone, as that's not a viable business in itself, so the satellite business is r

of course, but i'd argue that too much of a single field is usually a case of a company that's actually in multiple businesses (see the mcdonald's example in a sibling thread). my simplified perspective is a melding of the br

mcdonald's is actually a good example. it's at least 3 businesses on top of the nominal one of fast food: franchising, supply chain, and real estate. franchisees pay for access to the mcdonald's brand, trademarks, and shared

strictly speaking, a monopoly by itself is probably not a positive externality, since it isn't external, other than the regulatory permissiveness that allows it. to me a vertical monopoly isn't necessarily a single business, even

tl;dr: the author wants antitrust action to focus on private equity rather than tech (and oh look, he runs a tech consultancy!). the evidence presented isn't entirely wrong (at least the parts i skimmed), but it's certainly highly

yes, i should clarify that LA has a pretty effective no-kill cat rescue network (even sending rescues to other states for adoption), so most cats here are neutered, chipped, vaccinated, and tattooed when rescued and adopted out (e.g., my sw

here, they now give neutered cats a tattoo on the belly (~1cm green line) instead of clipping. this is a bit more humane and becoming more the standard nowadays i believe.
