$190B of capex is mind-boggling. That's roughly equivalent to building 34 One World Trade Centers.

Possibly. The source data does include hedonic adjustments.

I'm against undisclosed proxies, but I would pick pay-by-residential-proxy over pay-by-ads every time.

Does it make sense that Merlin and eBird are separate apps? This confuses me.

Neat! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_777X#Wing

Seems complicated. Doesn't selecting, then drag-and-drop do what the author wants?

AI might be exposing the valuelessness of corporate busywork.

Also: Most Americans wouldn't know if an AI datacenter was already in their backyard

Google also donated $40 million in tokens https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/public-sector/accelerat...

Technical analysis is astrology for boys.

Excited for "decentralized, self-sovereign, and open source."

Indifferent to "groupchat for agents".

This is great, and the direction Firefox should focus on: creating user-first features that other browsers won't and extension authors can't.

I only wish it was more automated. Every site should automatically get its own container.

How much of the anti-tracking value is defeated by non-cookie browser fingerprinting?

And Google alway has a target on its back for antitrust (regardless of claim validity)

Most conversation is taking place in this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48993414

"It is difficult to make predictions, especially about the future."

Google somehow managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of success

This is still very early days. Who is "on top" has flipped back and forth many times already. The next frontier model release (from whomever) will change things again.

Proof-of-life release while they figure out how to have a competitive frontier model release. My hunch is they pushed too far in the "omni" model direction, that they made something so ungainly, it wasn't as good for normal tasks.

Steve Job's most unfortunate legacy is inspiring people who crave attention that they should head companies.

True, but also "Do Things that Don't Scale" (https://www.paulgraham.com/ds.html). There are many examples of successful companies that had customers before they had products.

Possibly referencing the "Chart of the Century": https://www.aei.org/carpe-diem/chart-of-the-day-or-century-8...

I'll be impressed by this trend when someone manages to replace crappy built in TV OS spyware with something more open like Android TV.

No apparent relation to the jelly slider: https://docs.swmansion.com/TypeGPU/examples/#example=renderi...

Unfortunately, reviews from publishers and forums tend to be so superficial and/or astroturfed that it's very difficult to judge quality without handling/using item directly.

Article does some nutzo thing where it adds ?ref=beautifulpublicdata.com to outgoing links.

more microservices than team members

Or more microservices than customers

Probably correlates with being more sedentary as well. Lack of exercise is disastrous for health.

A theater near me has 70mm showings. I have to imagine they'll find a time/way to fit showings (at $25/ticket!) until demand drops.

Is this a problem in the EU? I often think in terms of home remodels that a family might do at least once. Those can easily fill a dumpster with tons of garbage. That's much more waste than a family could ever generate directly or indirectly in clothing.

Is there a hosted version somewhere?

Excellent hack! Should definitely be possible to make an animated gif to jpeg converter. I guess the animation could be slowed a little by repeating frames.
