That's not entirely true. Processed food requires less energy to digest and absorb. Nutritionally it can be exactly the same food but the net calorie intake will be higher for food that has been processed. We should eat food that our p

They could have been infected by locals in regions they've been travelling to. Many possibilities. Why do we have to speculate? Let's just wait for more data. The timeline of HIV pandemic has been established decades after pandemi

This is great but I've noticed newer regions do not have feature parity with older ones. For example, me-south-1 and af-south-1 still do not support AWS DataSync fully automated transfers. When this feature has been announced, it was p

Hold your horses. TSMC is cutting edge. They got ahead only in the past 3-4 years. Car/appliance manufacturers do not use their cutting edge chips. The biggest use-case for these chips are new iPhones and iPads. Nothing critical.

Looking at historical S&P 500 to Gold ratio, stocks are definitely more expensive but nowhere near dotcom frenzy. Either we see market correction or gold is undervalued and will catch up. In that case there might be no stock market cras

0.5% is immaterial for subscription-based businesses where profit margins are typically the highest. But... it adds up. For example, just looking at the last $39 USD transaction in my Stripe dashboard which gets converted to $53.72 AUD (I c

For most bootstrapped SaaS businesses, the number of active free trial users is so low, it's not worth your mental capacity. Also. You really don't want customers who will buy from you at $29/mo and won't buy at $39&#x2F

You always represent value even if you don't pay. You might introduce the music to someone who will pay. It's freemium model applied to music industry.

In Australia, independent administrator is appointed who is working on behalf of creditors. Government is usually another creditor so they are not exactly an independent party.

You can close your position by buying the month after futures. This will require you to store crude oil for just one month. I think the issue is that storage facilities are almost booked out and the remaining capacity is just so expensive.

Appharbor does look like a zombie startup. The last blog post 5 years ago, the last tweet 3 years ago. Alexa ranks them at #466,765. I was their customer many many years ago but eventually switched to AWS.

Can you give an example? In Australia, you'd need to buy hardware or software for more than $30,000 per unit to be forced to depreciate it over multiple periods. Anything cheaper than $30,000 can be expensed right away. So I'm loo

The spreadsheet is not wrong. It's just named incorrectly. It should be called "Income Statement Generator" because that's exactly what it is.

From Atwood/Spolsky podcasts it seems like Spolsky had zero impact on tech stack. Jeff Atwood was at the time C# programmer so he wrote StackOverflow in C#. More context: https://blog.codinghorror.com/why-ruby/
