All i want is sleep and step tracking. Is this a good option?

I got tired of constant updates/apps on home screen/lag and all on my Samsung TV and finally bought a Sony. Everything I do is through Apple TV and Xbox now, Sony is not connected to the internet.

Other than the slow boot (takes about 5 seconds to switch to Apple TV after pressing power button), I have no complaints.

S&P 500 is barely down (~9% as of this post) after returning 23% and 24% respectively in 2023 and 2024. I wouldn't call it ugly, as someone who lived through recession.

Not dreamweaver, But I use Flash (Macromedia) on Windows and Adobe on Mac frequently.

Call it muscle memory, I find it easier to cook a chart, shape and basic resize/crop on Flash.

Obviously it is 1.

But try it on iOS calculator, answer is 0.

Reason is when computing large numbers e.g. 100000........n + 1 - 100000........n, addition of 1 is pretty in-significant.

Re: (10^100)+1-(10^100)

i) Answer is 0 if you cancel out two expression (10^100)

ii) Answer is 1 if you compute 10^100 and then add 1 which is insignificant.

How do you even cater for these scenarios? This needs more than arithmetic.

This could affect the sales, as there will be less court-side seats.

I personally think the 3-point line needs to be uniform distance. It is 22 feet from the corner compared to ~24ish feet from the center.

On a similar note, why haven't PDF been replaced? There are XPS, DjVu and XHTML (EPUB) but they all seem to be targeting different usecase (a packaged HTML file).

What I want is a simple document format that allows embedding other files and metadata without the Adobe's bloat. I should be able to hyperlink within pages, change font-size etc without text overflowing and being able to print in a consistent manner.

There are different variations of Omega 3 fatty acids. For instance, Avocados is rich in Omega 3 ALA which is considered not as effective as EPA and DHA.

Fish is the only source of EPA and DHA.

I expected a lot more.

I am a full-stack engineer (first eight years in front-end and the last two years in full-stack). I've lived in Bay area for half of my life and have worked at startups as well as big tech.

Steve jobs embraced web apps as much as he could.[0]. But people weren't willing to give up desktop apps.

Like any tradeable product, valuation = supply * current price. 1B supply * 25 current price = 25 billion.

Important to note - it doesn't mean there is 25B of value created.

I moved to Azure free static hosting. Push a commit and automatically triggers a deployment via Github Actions.

I have tried all - Mint and many others. They were either too complex or weren't privacy friendly to my likings.

In the end, i ended up creating a simple react app. All the data is stored in a single json file that I sync. I load web app/app and just upload this json file.

Uses react-spreadsheet so all fields are editable.

On a related note, what are some cheaper alternative to Open AI's text to speech? Last I checked it came out to ~$9/day for their text-to-speech.

Give garmin a go. One week+ battery and it's outdoor activities tracking is just great.

What about any other things like Word, Operating System, Cars? Are they not all doing smaller improvements year after year.

I remember people lining up outside apple stores on the pre-order day. What has happened now? Have we seen the peak of smartphones until something new comes along and spur a new super-cycle?

Very interesting. What are some other hypothesis, provoking random articles?

I have always wanted to get a radio and just tune to 145.800 MHz FM to hear all the conversation between ground station and ISS.

I did a trial of Creative Suite on my mac. When it was time to uninstall, I couldn't do it using Creative Cloud Uninstaller. Because, Apparently I have to uninstall photoshop and other softwares from Creative Cloud App before uninstalling Creative Suite. I couldn't uninstall Photoshop etc. because my login to Creative Suite App didn't work. So, I contacted Adobe, there was some issue with getting 2FA to my email for some reason. So I couldn't login to CC to uninstall Photoshop to uninstall Creative Suite.

I had to reset my mac just to get rid of Adobe spywares.

Neat concept but pollutes the browser history and maximum length of 2048 characters defeats the purpose.

Can we use svg instead?

Most of the use-cases for requiring a phone number to sign up for a service e.g. Twitter, Signal seems to be to avoid spam. Atleast allegedly!

What alternatives can be used instead, something that is easily accessible/available to the general public but not easy to obtain to create mass users?

I believe it still runs on one box. Xeon E5-3567 (3.5Ghz). Stack is FREEBSD with nginx as front-end.

From a quick look at M5 hosting price, cost is probably $500-$1000/month (6M requests).

Max out your 401k, and save money towards downpayment for a house.
