There's truth to the ScrumFall design process which is inevitable for most development processes. It's not just that a tool needs to be marketed, but that it needs to be integrated with work from multiple teams and other processes

The same reason we don't have a race or sex limit on the Presidency. We should only have competency limits regardless of any other factors. My grandfather died at 101. He was extremely sharp until he was 98 and on no medication. I&#x27

Search engines go through cycles of usefulness. I was using qwant for over a year, but their relevance has dropped off. I'm very happy with startpage at the moment as my Google searches continue to drop. Perplexity (AI) is providing be

While thinking is somewhat of a background process, our brains don't just solve the mysteries of the universe while we eat a ham sandwich. We tell our brains which problems are of high importance and it focuses on them. If you've

There are parallels. You feed an LLM context data and then tell it what to focus on so it can pull relevant data. Maybe the entire process isn't like feeding an LLM, but that step is. Relevance identification is an interesting part of

Although I've looked at the original report, it isn't clear if this $1M in annual income that they're comparing to the 1950's is inflation adjusted. The only comment I can find on this point appears to say that it isn&#x

>making it harder for people to fail at adulting That has been the direction school has gone and, at least from my perspective, it seems worse. It has lead to a loss of agency among now so-called adults who expect to always be in a situa

The idea that we're collectively responsible is abjectly untrue. The only people with responsibility are the parents because they are the only ones who are allowed to make decisions. That is unless the government wants to take their ch

No one will pay more for a house with a higher R-value. If this were a determining factor, it would be part of real estate listings. It's a secondary or even tertiary concern for most people.

It is the democratic process and this is why the country was founded as a republic because they saw democracy as a kind of tyranny by the majority. Even if everyone in CT voted to kill Bob in Granby, it would be illegal although it would be

This sounds like the long way to say that increases supply lowers prices. It does address common criticisms of this approach, however. I feel like I'm missing something.

This isn't a mandate to accomplish anything. It's a pile of cash. Intel will do what it chooses with it and justify it later.

The market chose what it could based on the conditions that exist. Make is easier to people to open new businesses and expand existing ones, and people will do so. Creating hostile environments and then choosing who gets free money to overc

I used to live in a major city in the US. My commute by public transit was 45 minutes and I lived close to a major hub. I now live outside of that city. I can drive into that same job in 60 minutes. Public transit from here is over 2 hours.

I hope we can be better about addressing issues like this. Taxing empty houses, like most negative incentives, fails to address the existing incentives that cause the problem in the first place which will lead to different market imbalances

It depends on your use case. If you just need storage as a backup for a single device, then there's no need for a NAS, but if you're backing up multiple devices and/or want to share data between devices, then a low-power NAS
