Put the cost of things into terms of hours you would need to work to cover its cost. On an individual basis, you know very well how to gauge an hour of your working time, and inflationary effects will become apparent when there is something you used to buy routinely and suddenly find you have to work two or three hours to cover its cost.
4; microecon. Often when asked to solve cost minimization problems with supplied info, it states the problem can’t be solved, and that there might be a problem with the questions.
There are some limitations. I’ve asked some questions relating to my courses and it doesn’t always get it right.
The fibers are too short, but you could probably make a neat paper out of it.
There are some really good flint and steel survival rods available now. Not the flimsy Scouting ones of yesteryear, but ones with anodized aluminum housings, hardened metal strikers and large diameter flint rods.
Started our winter stove with it the other day and am really happy with it.
The one I have, from a survival perspective, is a little risky, because when configuring them for use they must be taken down into multiple parts, but damn if it doesn’t make huge sparks.
Can’t we though? All language is arbitrary at first. A person (or community) often names things, sometimes from pure scratch. The words “Kodak” and “Xerox” come to mind.
It did! A lot of it was quite marginal, but on the whole it was all orchestrated nicely and worked pretty seamlessly.
I used to run a small business, and we did a great number of things (relative to our business size and industry) in order to facilitate sales. Every touch point was designed to minimize the friction between the guest and them spending money. Both subtle things and obvious things.
The marketing started as soon as one visited the website (tracking pixels and FB for re-marketing ads) or called for info (we would try to capture at least name and email for additional marketing—always with explicit permission: “May we have your email address so we can send you additional periodic information?”). We had phone call flows and maximum hold times (3 mins).
We retained detailed guest notes and information which we would use to tailor their following visits (manually; any kind of automation was beyond our technical ability at the time).
I’d have to spend some time thinking of all the other ways we did things. Most of which we implemented in a Disney Magic sort of way, in the sense that things are just sort of magically happening without the guest being concerned about it.
Aye, I did thank you for the correction.
According to Space.com in July 2023, there were 4,487 active Starlink satellites. 26 represents just over 0.5% of the total constellation. Considering it seems like a swarm-type system, 0.5% strikes me as simply the cost of doing business.
Edit: decimals.
The blurb here makes me think the main article is an “advertorial”.

So unrealistic
Evernote had that for a long while, but as I understand it they’re moving to a new revenue model and lots of people are unhappy.
There might be a plug-in for Obsidian.md which provided a great Zettelkasten environment.
Quite a few good follow-on jokes in this thread, but the frequent screenshotting behavior begins to acknowledge something we can leverage into a powerful tool for learning.
All one needs to do is complete the last steps in what is the beginning of a Zettelkasten system, the first step having been collecting the information (the screenshot).
I prompted ChatGPT to write and adjust a linear Python script for a repetitive task I needed to automate. It took 30 minutes versus the 6-12 hours I would have consumed if I had coded it myself.
It’s a huge force multiplier when used properly.
You jest, but this is the idea behind Dyson Spheres.
All the dicks. And the bag, to be certain that if he weasels his way out of eating the dicks, at least he’ll have to find a way to carry them around for a while.
