>Make sure your face is well lit

To do this, make sure you have your window in front of you, and certainly not behind you (backlighting is awful)

If you are on a call at night, or in a dark place, make sure your laptop screen is not your main source of light: if someone shows a red slide, you will look red.

Yes, the math does not look good. I remember dreaming about a house that could go up and down like this. Then I went to buy a AAA battery... same. That said, if they can manage to find that 1km shaft in an old mine like they hope, and put some crazy amount of weight and make it work, that would be impressive and cool.

It would not improve soccer in my opinion. Sometimes the ref needs to not whistle a hand ball. It is a judgment call. And sometimes referees need to whistle an attempt at hand ball. To help with the spirit of the game. Good luck with AI being good at that.

I remember chasing down history of acid music online and discovering Charanjit Singh who created Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat in 1982:

If you did not need to pay when you need healthcare, if education was free with equal opportunity, and everybody had enough to eat and a half decent place to live, I would entertain discussing this.

You could have this today in the US, it exists elsewhere. Yes, it would probably cost a bit more for the wealthiest people.

Until then, I believe we should not try to justify inequality based on irrealistic theoretical arguments. I see just a ploy to preserve the current situation by people in a good situation.

Because inequality and poverty is all too real. It hurts real people, unfairly. In the US. And it could change.

I hope this success will help put Bordeaux, FR, on the world map for tech and video game dev, in addition to wine.

Yes, I understand the caching part. If Gmail proactively loads/cache the unique pixel before users open the email, then the email reporting is garbage. If they wait for the person to open the email, it is very interesting (even if repeat are not tracked).

Does Gmail download by default, whether you open the email or not?

I am very impressed with what you did, and thank you for sharing the back stories about dealing with manufacturers and the real life pains of troubleshooting customers.

This is real, tough entrepreneurship, and I am very surprised by the number of implied criticisms about how not perfect your product, price, positioning...

The number of issues you solved already, the fact you have a happy installed based is impressive. Further iterations will make it even better, feels like you've done the hardest part.... Congrats.

If Gandi folks read this: I am curious to read your post-mortem analysis on this.

I was seriously thinking about bringing some domains back to LiveDNS. I am thinking that after this, you may even be a little better at your job. Transparency is key here for me, even if you messed up.

>I can't really understand where it's going?

Same here. That's why I find it interesting. Some half baked ideas that feel accurate and useful. No big theory about life. Perfect blog post.

Richard Montañez has all my admiration for what he achieved. This is a beautiful story.

Unfortunately, those kinds of stories also play into the narrative: be a good model employee, make sure the floors shine and trust that hard work, and great ideas will make you deservedly insanely rich. Because there are smart CEOs who will see all of that

Cinderella, capitalist version.

Too rare to be significant as a policy. Most likely does not scale. Too often, dreams are useful to convince people to accept their fate.

What helps me is to walk, instead of sitting in a room. When I walk, my fidgety body is kept busy, and leaves my brain in peace, not even costing any brain-cpu cycles.

Then, it is a lot harder to reach to your cellphone when you walk. So it helps me get rid of 2 major distractions, body and phone, with very little effort. Now I can think.

Maybe you just don't know? The simple fact that some people want to unionize shows your picture may differ from reality.

I know some people at lower levels (blurring, moderating) being laid off just before one year just because they don't want to consider them as full blown employees.

I may misunderstand the thread, but it looks to me like they don't want to fix it, even though it is the spec, and other browsers do follow it.

Thank you, I will try. I was actually trying to mix web app (https:// mydomain.com) and connecting to localhost. And yes, a localhost URL in the bar looks ugly... Trade-offs...

I am trying to do this too. But I would like to make it work on MacOS as well. The problem there is Safari does not let you connect to localhost over http. So if Safari is the preferred browser of the user, you need to convince them to change, which is hard.

Or is there à better way there?

Why is the self driving ecosystem trying to solve every driving challenge, which is very hard, rather than focussing on highway driving, ideally reserved lanes, high speed and close cars. And progressively expand those areas "reserved to self driving card" over time. It feels like it would bring a lot of value while reducing complexity a lot. If this is a silly question, please let me know why.

Most countries on earth don't really play baseball. In those, the huge majority of people have never heard of Babe Ruth.

Because it is part of the game, hate it or love it. English players and fan where pissed, but Maradona got away with it, so respect. All of them would have done the same if they knew they could get away with it. Especially in such a big game.

Plus, it's just a game, nobody died. And it's fun to watch how a very small player beat a giant keeper through creativity and boldness.
