Yes, OP seems to have completely lost touch with what is actually useful vs optimizing metrics for the sake of it.

For those in the comment section looking for a split alternative to this, there is this Kickstarter(be warned of the usual problems with Kickstarters):

What seems to implied is that some of his hold out testing suite includes simple/common tests that are out in the wild, and for those opus went straight to a memorised solution .

The instant on thing actually bothered me enough to make switch from windows back to Mac( by proxy the idle battery drain on windows was also pretty terrible)

Depends on your definition of "instant".
What we really mean is before you complete the action of fully opening the hinge to 120deg which is something like 1.5-2seconds?
AFAIK pre M1 days it would be still a few seconds after fully opening and now it's more like < 1sec.

The concept trying new science orgs is noble, but this is the typical Schmidt BS of saying every previous academic consortia is totally incompetent and I'm the only one that can inject the magic sauce of focus and coordination.

Would really appreciate if you could add some options for download quality(with webm merge for 4k support), gave it a go and it just by default downloads the 360p MP4.

If you purely value scientists with some sort of Value Over RePlacement metric on their scientific contribution alone, I would like to think Einstein is tier 1 along side another 20-50 people.

I've only play with TLA+ for a small amount of time but absolutely agree with the maths statement being way off the mark.
Building out any real maths with logic operators yourself is just not feasible in a meaningful timescale.

Yes at the extremes where you have sufficient leverage the hours are irrelevant, but for any pre-IPO stage CEO my statement is clearly not a misconception.

There is a difference between knowing if a blind spot exists vs knowing what in the blind spot.
I.E. taking a driving lesson and learning that there's a blind spot in your rear view mirror

Your CEO may very well be working those hours too except for good reason since he's value aligned+ highly leveraged and able to capture the benefits from the extra work
Re:Eric Schmidt deleted Stanford interview

The biggest difference between him and a "normal smart person" is they realize they have blind spots and choose not to publicly spout opinions on them.

I suppose you are only referring to the young directly involved, but the young watching the comp could also be just as impressionable and start looking into using the same drugs.
But my real take is this hopefully gets everyone to understand how meaningless/ugly this all is and actually combats PED use that way.

I think Scott has one of the cleanest looking road bike ebikes around, but many other brands do the same. With how chunky aero bikes are they are indistungishable to the masses.
