Yes, let the enshittification begin.

It doesn't. It takes 2 clicks.

My ThinkPad P1 Gen 7 works absolutely fine. I get about 10 hours of battery life out of it. You can get it with Fedora preinstalled.

In my experience, ThinkPads generally work fine.

The problem for this use case is that certain businesses, like medical offices, use specialized software that is often Windows only.

ThinkPad P1 is fine, if Intel chipset works for you.

Great keyboard and touchpad and nice display.

How is the quality compared to speechify?

I use it to listen to PDFs. It works, but has plenty of hiccups with headers, footers and colons.

While I am not somebody who succeeded in the field of running a SAAS, I gave myself the same question.

One answer (or better, one idea) I came up with, was to join a network marketing organization. While I am reluctant about this step, it would definitely pull me out of my comfort zone. And I think you can learn a lot sales wise in a network marketing organization.

I would love to hear what others think of this.

Some Free Software projects are simply to good to be true. ScummVM is one of them.

I remember fondly replaying Monkey Island on my Linux machine thanks to it.

Probably, it will be fast enough. The new compiler is based in mzscheme.

If they are classic the are not outdated.

Is Beethoven's 5th outdated?

I would also add the mentor in there.

It seems to me that most heros have a mentor that guides them on their way.

In my opinion, ChatGPT is a big threat for close-ended questions: What is a car?

What I am not so sure about, is this really the majority of searches? I assume a big part of searching is about discovery — finding articles, products, images, etc.

For that, you need a good ranking and efficient crawling. Two things ChatGPT doesn't have.

Given the strong brand of Google, only time will tell if ChatGPT will eat a large chunk of Google's market share.

I would think the most valuable part of tesla is the network of loading stations that the own. At least in the US. In Europe the EU is setting a standard which is good for competition, but maybe less good for innovation.

If understand the article right according to the author high tech === software.

I would say this is far from the truth. The first covid vaccine was developed in Europe. Europe plays a big role in green energy. I would say Europe can innovate.

That doesn't mean that Europe hasn't many problems and disadvantages.

1. Lack of money for startups. Less venture capital and subsidies for startups. 2. Bad interplay between military research and startups. This basically created Silicon Valley, and it seems to be a big part in the Israeli startup scene. 3. A big part of scientific research is removed from universities => less potential founders get in contact with cutting-edge innovation. 4. No unified customer base to start with. The big home markets of China and the US seem to be a key advantage, at least for Internet/social media startups.

Do they? Ubuntu, Mint are both European are using Gnome or at least GTK.

Red Hat/Fedora uses Gnome because Gnome is basically a Red Hat product. This has nothing to do with the geography of the distro.

Unfortunately, a lot more people use Gnome. Which is a shame in my opinion. But it is the way it is.

It's about fiscal policy. The EU has no unified fiscal policy. It can't raise taxes for transfers from north to south.

Almost every economist said in 98 that the euro is a bad idea. And it is for the south of Europe. It's great for the north and Germany especially, but for the south it is and has a killer.

In my opinion, the Euro will ultimately break the current EU.

Yes it does.

Scheme is not what makes SICP challenging. The sheer density of concepts is.

HtDP is a bit repetitive and gets a bit boring over time.

While some things overlap, I would recommend to first work through HtDP (or better through this online course https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7dEjIUwSxSNcW4PqNRQW8w/abo...) and then work through SICP - especially if you try to learn programming by yourself.

IMHO, the best introductory programming course there is. I worked through it when MOOC were still free.

I think it is better structured than HtDP and the recipe pages in the wiki are priceless. Do they have a course website?

China is not a rich country by G7 standards. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G20

Their growth is mainly triggered by rolling back the horrendous policies of the Great Leap Forward.

Why should it be propaganda?

Your claim that all countries got rich via aggressive industrial policy doesn't make sense to me.

What was this policy in the US? What was this policy in Western Germany after WW II?

Their main strategy was to allow creative destruction, through strong institutions. The most important probably the rule of law.

The article mentions Plan->Iterate->Ship a lot.

How is this essentially different from Scrum sprints?

If people use the train instead of their cars, it will save energy by a lot. Trains are the most efficient form of transportation, cars the least efficient.

I changed your suggestions (and the typo). THX.

Thanks for your feedback. I think the server was just overwhelmed.

Normally, the search works instantly. Even though, I am located in Germany and the server is located in the US.

I debounce the search for 250ms.

I also have some currencies in the database. You can suggest other ones.

I highly doubt your assessment. When you have a short position, with underlying values you don't own, you have a leveraged investment. Which is inherently more risky than investments in a base value.

The idea is not to have perfect negative correlations, but to find values with some negative correlation. This way you can profit from falling prices of an asset. Not with a 1 to 1 yield, or even higher.

It happened more by accident. I only used the field to compose the "first" comment, but then I hit submit before cutting the text.

Data source are dailys from alphavantage: https://www.alphavantage.co/documentation/#daily

Prices are not adjusted, as these are not free.

The idea is that you search for negative correlations and then you look into the two asset, if there is some relationship. For example if the price of oil goes down the stock price of Ford should go up.

The correlation is only a first indicator.

Wow, I was hoping for some feedback. I didn't expect to get on the HN homepage.
