It could be similar to late 90’s market share slide of Macintosh. Apple was the largest pc manufacturer but had the smallest market segment overall. There were so many IBM clones that the overall market share of the PC market was higher volume than Macintosh.

Veblen goods can compete. China is unique in cheap high tech products. As production scales down and shipping costs raise smaller markets open.

Thanks for the clarification.

Well that is something and it has a certain logic. If you want to live off the grid all platform trust is removed.

Not trying to normalize usage in anyway. I just wonder if a behavior is well represented in a society is it still a disorder?

The behavior while under the influence should get labeled but the usage might be normal. People being angry or not taking responsibility deserves a label from the DSM. If a large population is ingesting things this might be normal.

I was really surprised how the article danced around the use of cannabis. The article framed it as possibly related to ritualistic and or funerary purposes. I see no reason that it wasn’t simply a lifestyle choice. Although even modern use may seem ritualistic. I just think it would be more honest to just say it was used.

Does what?

It's a no win situation. All of this surveillance is happening on the internet right now. All the companies are doing this surveillance Apple happens to be doing it on device. This is the data Apple is trying to prevent from leaving the device. Apple is constantly fighting court battles to protect the data. Apple is always being accused of hampering developers freedom's while trying to safeguard access to this data. All that said turning off Apple Intelligence should eliminate the collection.

It has an amazing turning radius. Impressive acceleration from 0-35. Exactly where I need steller acceleration. I-drive is a great UI device for driving. The screens are all well thought out. Very specious inside with cargo space and wide hatchback opening.

Chased out of the USA by policy decisions.

My i3 is my favorite car ever. If it looked like a BMW I would have never considered it. The i3 is such a pure design statement. The only other ev I would describe that way is the now defunct Canoo.

Helo Andrew. I'm a composite construction student at IYRS in Newport Rhode Island and I sent a email last week with some questions regarding an externship possibilities at CircuitHub. I haven't gotten a reply and when I call for support I leave a message.

Is there a better way?

I was going to say this as well the GeekPort was a parallel port. I always thought it was marketed that way is that Macs didn’t have a parallel port. Having a parallel port would make the spec sheet seem regressive. I believe serial ports were always faster than parallel ports. I bought a BeBox at the time.

The original Nike store in NYC purchased one to do their signage media playback. It didn’t go well.

There was a giant flywheel company near me about 20 years ago. Maybe it's still there. They had one incident where a flywheel broke.

From conversations with my young kids the problem they have is with the billionaires. They are fine with the technology they just don’t trust the billionaires and who can blame them.

Likely these cases are part of the FISA court members appointed by Chief Justice currently John Roberts.

The chief justice also appoints the court FISA appeals go to.

I feel the role of the Press is to root out these stories and publish them.

To me the defining moment of the Press abdicating their job was when the NYTs reported the second gulf war. This was the end of me reading it. The Sunday times was staple reading growing up.

The start of the "electric company" started with I think Rita Moreno shouting "Hey you guys..."

anyway I have always considered Hey guys as gender neutral.

Merriam Webster seems to agree by listing this as a secondary meaning.

used in plural to refer to the members of a group regardless of sex saw her and the rest of the guys.

Thank you for the thorough explanation but I was thinking we could redefine the second.

My big question is why didn’t we just say the speed of light is exactly 300,000 meters per seconds when we redefined the foot.

A thing it’s simple patterning. Listen to the same random music on a cd and it becomes a pattern. The more discernible the pattern the more popular the music.

First I had heard of duck-typing.

After reading the page I was left with the question of isn't that dynamic inheritance? The seems like dynamic runtime.

and postal money orders.

That’s why they need above average per capita instal.

I’m curious if the size of 8 miles is related to the curvature of the earth. That’s about the distance that big things disappear over the horizon

Here is a recent article about a small town in western Massachusetts. The headline is about the natural gas feeds be at saturation for the town. Buried in the article is a comment about our electricity also being bumping against capacity. National Grid is the electric provider.

I have been expanding solar thermal because it’s free of both of these constraints.

A Supreme Court judge being reluctant to define a social norm makes sense to me. Other future judges have the ability to update their perception. Prescribing social norms to a textual definition is a problem as social norms change.

I wasn’t so much claiming it was a robot only that it was general purpose computer. Definitely a kin to a drone. Is a drone a robot?

“I know it when I see it” has the flexibility to adapt with social norms.

Autonetics designed the inertial guidance system for the Minuteman 1 ICBM. They also sold it as a general purpose computer and distributed to Universities to learn about general purpose computers.

It took realtime input from gyroscopes and starmaps and calculated output for the thrusters.
