Got curious, searched, saw this on the Fathom page: “ Dealer sets selling price”, closed the page.

We’re going to see a repeat of Maverick with inflated prices which will kill the demand.

So we’re more worried about a kid’s social line than education and future employability. Got it.

Thinking back, different era and country, but fear of failing was much much bigger than not getting an A.

Currently there are no short term consequences to failing. Won’t this provide a motivation to a set of students to do better. The ones who’re going to fail are the ones suited to trade or other jobs, and other avenues later in like to get high school diploma. Maybe this is not the right time in their life and they need different help than being mindlessly promoted in school.

I wonder that even though I don’t have personal hardware to run these at the moment, if it makes sense to download and keep a copy of some models like these in case access/licensing changes in future and/or hardware becomes cheaper.

Can always replace the backup copy with a better one on next release.

Or is someone running an initiative like this, such as Archive.org folks?

They might be contraband in the future. In which case you could not rely on the archive to preserve them.

So the answer is both yes and no.

I hate the whole concept of QR code for a menu. I have no idea who came up with the idea and why restaurants thought that is a good idea. Yes, physical menus cost a little money to print, but last forever. Unless the restaurant has a new menu every day, it just doesn’t make sense.

Maybe next time I’ll just walk out and let the restaurant know why I’m walking out.

It's likely that the server will be punished.

According to Reuters which refers to this WSJ article [0], $30T is the TAM. Calling it potential revenue is a huge stretch.

Not justifying as this number as it is stupidly large, but theoretically if AI replaced all White collar workers in the World it will come to around $30T or so (Gemini said it’s $36T-$37T based on some calculations using global GDP, labor share, white collar share etc)

TAM is always stupidly large in decks, disconnected from reality. Every startup has a deck with TAM in billions.

This source looks at a lot of data sources and numbers and arrives at $50T - 70T annually as salaries for knowledge workers:

Cool. I’ll use this data as the source for TAM for my next startup.

Why does Anthropic get to have all the fun.

It is pre-IPO public dance.

Today, they offered me shares in Anthropic; the IPO is supposedly scheduled for October.

I don’t think that’s peppermint. That’s pudina so spearmint. Mentha spicata.

It seems to aid in digestion, soothe upset stomach, so maybe it does.

There are two types of peppermint supplements being sold: mentha pipereta that this study looked at, and mentha arvensis.

I wonder if mentha arvensis has the same effect. Supplements vs mint tea would be another interesting thing to study in future.

Based on your new information, I think it would be good to test the effect of supplemenths vs supplemints.

Please consider the fact there may be children reading before you do something like this again.

No it doesn’t.

Why? Because I don’t use it as a TV AND a set top box. I use it just as a TV that is connected to an AppleTV

And before when I was using the inbuilt smart TV, I had disabled various android services related to ads on my Sony TV, and run pi-hole that blocks ads.
