I'd wager a hidden factor is that slopes are more common in higher altitudes i.e. there are simply more hills and stairs one needs to navigate leading to incidental exercise.

Yes but I’m presuming the person I was responding to meant “role” in the context you’re talking about, but by “user” they meant a row in some “users” or “customers” table corresponding to their application. Questioning the need to “create r

Why have a role per user instead of just defining the row policy with the user directly?

This is like saying strip clubs shouldn't need to ID minors attempting to enter the building i.e. parents should be fully responsible for restricting a minor's access strip clubs. I think it's reasonable to conclude strip clu

Seems like you've got your rose tinted glasses on. The first universities were established by religious leaders to organize/control priestly power. Basically the same as today.

Wow, sounds incredibly arduous. I agree synthesis is a good approach for understanding concepts, but this tends to happen automatically as I read a book because I’m synthesizing it with my worldview or with other concepts I’ve been ruminati

Depends on your data and how it needs to be modeled and used, imo. If it’s sparse and interconnected then obviously SQL makes a lot of sense. But for data that is very document-like e.g. 10Ks you’d get from SEC EDGAR, then document based is

Being a kook and a congressman (or intelligence officer) are not mutually exclusive. I haven't really seen anything credible, have you? It's always some ambiguous statement like "I've been told by a high ranking official

I timidly approached Deleuze a few years ago but didn't make it very far, haha. Should probably give it ago again... did you find it useful?

René Girard has done an anthropological investigation of this topic. The gist of it is through the psycho-social mechanism of scapegoating, opposing groups can simultaneously believe they are victims while acting as oppressors, often using

Yeah, this makes sense. Wasn’t super familiar with the target of Mitnick’s hacks but looks like mostly monopolies like Pac Bell and government. SBF was also “hacking” SV investors and politicians, but probably inflicted more collateral dama

On one hand you assert there’s no such thing as moral good, yet you describe him as righteous? That word is a superlative for “good” steeped in religious tones! Anyway, I suppose you could make the case that Mitnick was taking on “the Man”

Serious question: why revere Mitnick, but not someone like SBF? Mitnick is admired for his technical skill and social engineering prowess, but the same argument could be made that SBF is also exceptional in this regard on an even larger sca

Zoom out. Excluding the tech stack, do you like and care about the product being built? If you do, then that should be a sufficient motivator. If not, then prepare your exit. Other questions to consider: Do you need the paycheck? Is this po

ES is just a Java-based server, isn’t it? Looks like it clocks in at 500MB which is on par with an Electron desktop app.

Probably won’t matter, but maybe it’d be advantageous to pretend it will. “Burn your ships” so to speak.

This is a distinction without a difference. Code is data and data is code.

Currently using knex, but this looks like a nice improvement. Getting the types via codegen is brilliant.

Maybe not the majority, but the most critical, like filter-based searches, will require some dynamic SQL. Type safety is a big win.

As a likely buyer of AVP I thought it was informative. For example, the VAC issue does seem like a fundamental issue and now that I understand what it is, I’ll be able to better evaluate how Apple has solved (or not solved) the problem.

Don’t batteries get hot? My Mac Air gets hot enough to be too uncomfortable to keep on my lap so there’s no way I’d want one sitting on my head. Seems like most consumers perceive a degree of danger associated with batteries, and don’t want

Here’s some tinfoil. Maybe OpenAI (or some other data hungry org) made a deal with Reddit to build up their data/training moat. Announcing this would have an even bigger backlash than what we’re currently seeing, and could explain why

What’s the best way to develop for Vision Pro until the headset is available to buy? Use ARKit/RealityKit/Unity in an iPhone to develop some of the basics and hope the code translates well enough?

Surprised there's not more skepticism about the "Qualia Research Institute" behind this study. It's funded by the founder of Polychain Capital, which might raise some eyebrows. I also find it amusing that people in tech
