Thank you! (Generalist staff here). I should note that many other companies have shown t-shirt folding at this point; however, the significance of us showing it here is not that we can do it, but rather we can do it as one of many tasks, and do it with mastery.

This video shows how to use a Cryo ET machine: https://youtu.be/L-65mpdKLzQ

Each item is 33px tall, which on my screen, and for the sake of easy math, is ~1cm.

If every year got 1 row, and we were on a linear instead of a logarithmic-ish timescale, the start of section 1 (4.1 billion years ago), would be about 41,000km tall, which is slightly bigger than the circumference of the eath.

13.813 billion years at this scale, at 138,130km, is just over a third of the way to the moon.

Happy 1000th anniversary Vikings!

Wow does much better than Geekbench's prior top processor (https://browser.geekbench.com/processor-benchmarks) the Intel Core i9-11900K (https://browser.geekbench.com/processors/intel-core-i9-11900...).

10,997 for Intel i9

vs

12,693 for M1 Max

I'd also add https://tldroptions.io/ as a quick and dirty potential options valuator. That being said, I agree with the author's default assumption that private options should be valued at zero, especially for financial planning purposes. At the same time, it is this hockey stick that is a strong part of the allure of smaller startups. There's an entirely separate levels.fyi equivalent that needs to be made for the amount of equity employees get at various stages of a company. It should also note that the size size of the exit is inversely proportional to the odds that it'll happen.

We offer an API behind Azure DNS. As a hacky, but functional, workaround for our customers they can manually add our server's IP address to their /etc/hosts file. It'd be important for them to revert that once DNS returns; however as a quick fix this might help some people.

From the introduction of the Paper:

"We emphasize that the whole technology is futuristic and the reason should be clear to all the accelerator experts... We also note that a 1000 TeV machine requires the accelerator circumference of the order of 1000 km with the magnets of ≃ 10 Tesla which is totally ridiculous... Even if it becomes the reality, the cost of the construction is of the order of or more than 100 billion US$... the power required for the operation of the machine may exceed 50 GW"

"Amazon.com represented less than 1.3 percent of total FedEx revenue for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2018"

"This is like viewing a mustard seed in Washington DC from Brussels"

I wish the rhetoric around "screens" was less focused on the delivery mechanism and instead more focused on the problematic thing behind those screens.

The issues raised here seem to not be related to glowing LCDs, but rather particular apps and behaviors in those apps that lead to addictive and problematic behavior.

"Screens" is even broader than saying things like "the internet is bad". The latter statement already sounds unhelpful because everyone has a better understanding of just how diverse of a platform "the internet" is.

I built one of these! With a shifter on the palm, and a separate control toggle, you'd get pretty much the full ASCII set.

Even though I'm right handed, it worked best on my left hand. This is because of how surprisingly nice it was to use my dominant hand to do something (use a mouse, eat, etc), while still typing with my left.

Alas I assume the reason this never caught on was due to the learning curve. People will never leave qwerty. Also it was pretty slow. When I built this back in 2005, I was thinking for PDAs and early cell phones and was only competing against T9 and early palm keyboards. After a few months of practice, I never topped about 45 wpm.

These videos are frankly better explanation of college-level math concepts than most college classes.

Also, now you probably care much more about the intuitions of mathematics over the raw mechanics of it. Once again, this channel perfectly exemplifies this concept.
