True, but we can notice that that's the case, and then try to listen more carefully or ask for clarification

Surely there are tribes that transcend and cross corporations. That's why you can hire old colleagues and get a team up and running in a startup or new firm

Does this mean tacit knowledge only exists within in-person teams? So projects like the Linux kernel don't have any tacit knowledge?

Like trademarking DOS

Yeah, I have a day rate of about £1000, which works out to £20k a month. Not quite £30k. Maybe I need to up my rate for inflation.

Have they considered ad-supported seat heating? Along with crypto mining?

Hedge funds aren't married to the stocks they own. They'll buy and sell or even short depending on what the next short-term price move will be. As long as the price moves and they predicted it (possibly because they caused it), it's all good for them.

Even if he did hold more than a trivial amount of Alphabet, there's nothing to stop him from taking profits and selling out as soon as the price temporarily moved up (if it even would)

How long does a battery last when unused?

Tesla was a "forcing function" that caused other car manufacturers to build EVs. AI lawyer technology may be the catalyst needed to trigger reform of the legal system. It's clear that up until now there has been no reform forthcoming.

Imagine the robot shoots an innocent person because it misidentified an object as a gun.

It would be better for the consumer printer segment to die off, and for the consumer to see the price of a proper printer that works correctly, and decide whether to buy that or use a print service.

The same problem exists with physical mail. I don't need advertisement flyers. I want a realtime spreadsheet with updated prices and discounts.

This is from May 2020...

Now the biggest customers for horse bread will be furries

What's MBSR? I'm guessing it's not FIRE

Yeah, and then the fact that with one tech job, you're already in the top tax bracket, and anything extra you do is taxed at the maximum rate. Diminishing returns on effort...

If you type "apt install openoffice", don't most distros install libreoffice instead?

$250k ~= £200k which gets you a decent lifestyle in London but definitely not living like a prince!

Such universities already exist, for example Howard University and Albert Einstein. Just not for Asians yet.

> It's unfortunate that a quality education is a finite pie we have to divvy up into thin slices.

I think this belief is part of the problem. Information is infinitely replicable at zero cost, but we create barriers to its dissemination. If there are kids who are eager and able to learn material, they should have access to that it. And if they have mastered the material, they should be granted recognition of that objective fact. Any other policy means we are deliberately dumbing ourselves down.

On the other hand, perhaps we need to dissect what it is we mean by "education", because while access to information can be unlimited, the number of places at Harvard IS limited. Inasmuch as membership in an exclusive social club is limited, and inasmuch as the Harvard class is an exercise in social engineering, I can see wny one may want some representation for various groups.

In short, knowledge doesn't need to be a finite pie. It only appears to be so because some domains are gate-kept by limited admissions numbers in order to protect the supply of labour in those professions. The tech industry shows that when we don't have professional licensing, talent can find a way regardless of credentialism.

Consulting gigs tend to be flexible with regard to side projects. Just convince them that it won't detract from your ability to get their work done, and that the IPs are distinct and have no overlap.

This could perhaps be integrated with PGP keyservers

Part of what made the Apple II great was the Apple II Reference Manual, which started out gently with an introduction to the hardware, how to turn it on, how to type on the keyboard, and ends with an assembly listing of the autostart and monitor ROM.

The FDA is cracking down on the overdose epidemic for horse dewormer

The article also says they revived it in 1988 until 1990

This won't work unless Apple, Amazon, FB and Netflix agree to do the same thing. Which, if they do, would be totally legit, right?

The "outside investment" is just time and effort. There is free access to information via public libraries, the internet, youtube, mathworld, etc.

The UK has many horrible delivery services. DPD and Amazon are two that are acceptable. I dread trying to receive a delivery from any other service. Incredibly there are more than a few that are actually worse than Royal Mail.

Actually, it seems the plaintiff sold calls at $100 and then had to buy them back at a higher price.
