The G7 pairs directly with an Apple Watch and acts as the primary sync device. Unlike the G6, you don’t get null readings displaying on the watch until you open the app. I have the dexcom widget on my Apple Watch series 10 with a G7 paired

I believe it’s a limitation of the memory controller on the M4 chip. It can only address 32 gb of ram. Addressing more ram would require more die space

I love this feature in Apple’s ecosystem so much. The newer iOS and iPadOS releases when autofilling a sign-up form even give an option to generate a new hide my email address. It’s effortless to not use your real email. If you pay for an i

> You can run DOOM Eternal, building the Stadia that Google couldn’t pull off, because the L40S hasn’t forgotten that it’s a graphics GPU. Savage. I wonder if we’ll see a resurgence of cloud game streaming

It’s worth noting that companies are testing flu + COVID vaccines as an all in one shot. I think most people don’t want to come to their pharmacy for multiple jabs. https://www.pfizer.com/news/press-release/press-r

Can you please update the terraform docs for google batch? In [1] it’s really difficult to know what everything in the json configuration is under the base64encode() call. What levers can I pull? How do I run something more complex than hel

I think it’s slightly more complex than that. Apple included in their processor design custom extensions to ARM that alter things like memory order to make emulation easier [1]. It’s not just control over the software stack that makes Roset

In most financial models, the return investors demand on risky assets like stocks depends on the opportunity cost of the risk free rate [eg 1]. As the risk free rate goes up, the return investors expect on risky assets also goes up which pu

I pay $70 for 1 Gb/s but I usually end up getting 800-900 mbps up/down when I run a Speedtest which is fine by me. I switched to centurylink fiber during the pandemic. Before that I was paying comcast $65 for 100 down / 10 up

Soccer. For those in the Seattle area there are multiple adult leagues (Seattle RATS is what I play in). We play year round on turf, rain or shine. They’ve got beginners divisions and over 30s divisions. They also host a free Saturday skill

I live in Seattle, having moved from California. The thing that helped me more than anything was playing soccer outdoors year round. Rain or snow. Several times a week. The exercise more than anything helped me get over the dark and the gre

I actually think the yield is concerning. For fun, you can plug in your own assumptions to this calculator [0], but with assumptions below, the yield on bonds due 2028 implies a 20% chance of default. Market price is 0.7/face value of

They actually break it out now in their financial reporting. It’s a loss of 931 million for the most recent quarter on revenues of 5.8 billion. Likely most of the loss stems from R&D to develop the product offering.

To add to this, it can be configured to also buzz your wrist while you’re asleep if you go low (eg at 70) before it starts making noise for a very low alert (eg 55). Really convenient to not wake up a partner. Your phone still has to be in

Raising 17M dollars at a 70B valuation is insane for an early stage company. Assume the shares are worthless. Consider avoiding the company all together because whoever is at the top has no clue how finance works. At 70M the calculus is muc

If I recall correctly Nvidia does not allow you to put consumer cards into data centers. They force you to buy a different line of cards which are like 10x more expensive. That may be a driver of the AWS price. Update — I do recall correctl

One can buy alternative indexes that prioritize value factors. Vanguard, Schwab, and other large brokerages offer these products. See, for example, VTV which uses a multi-factor weighting scheme to try to find stocks that are “cheap” or FND
