I'm from EU and it is a thing. I use iMessages whenever the other side has an iPhone. In my social circle, it's about two thirds. But it is also true that many people who have an iPhone still use Whatsapp or Messenger as the default communication channel even if the other side has an iPhone as well.

For a perspective, 3m euro is about two lifetimes of an average salary in Berlin (north of 2k monthly after taxes)

I haven’t been able to find whether the recommended 7-9 hours per night refers to the time in bed or to actual sleep time (~1 hour less). Does anyone know?

"In regular use" is an understatement. Virtually all manuscripts published on Arxiv.org, which comprises a large portion of all contemporary physics research output, is typeset in Latex.

It doesn’t matter what the technical definition is in aviation. What matters is what expectations about Tesla’s technology it creates for most people.

Because publishing a package on PyPI is trivial compared to publishing on the Anaconda cloud. For the latter, you need to build your package for every platform and Python version you want to support. So sou need to setup some CI. This is just such an overkill for a pure-Python package. It makes a lot of sense for a project with a nontrivial C extension though, and I do build a conda package for one such project of mine. For everything else, I publish just on PyPI.

I find this view satisfying: “free will” is the feeling that our decisions are the consequence of the train of our inner thoughts. In that sense, free will exists. The following question is whether that feeling corresponds to physical reality or is an illusion. Here I believe it’s the latter and free will is in fact merely an interpretation of what happens around us. See the book Feee Will from Sam Harris for more.

Well, he was right about that, although there is little doubt his intent was to deceive.

Words are used in a context which shapes their meaning. “Is” there implies to most that the aircraft already exists.

With Safari on macOS, the OS reports a negligible energy impact for the extension.

But what you describe is not at all what the article is about. This is about identifiable information, which has nothing to do with anyone’s humanity.

The $15 adapter is most likely of similar quality as the DAC and other audio components in the phone, so I don’t see the point. (Also, most people I know with $1000 headphones use an external audiophile-grade DAC anyway.)

Well, sure, but those are not specific reasons to take a job in a startup, which the comment was about, those are reasons to take any job.

The Dutch and Danish approach to cycling is just from a different world. Even cities that I consider decent for cycling, like Berlin, pale in comparison to any larger Dutch or Danish city. And once you introduce cycling into commuting systems at that scale, yes, it enables you to design those systems in new ways.
