Really cool. I know the sauce is in the layers and weights, but its kind of mind blowing how short / simple the implementations are

That blew my mind as well. I remember it looking so good.

Xbox - 64mb

Xbox 360 - 512mb

Xbox One - 8 GB (later 12 GB)

Xbox Series X - 16 GB

This last one also surprises me, was expecting at least 32GB

Managed to make it through without being attacked by a single greyling. Quite the accomplishment

On the other hand, some people want Bitcoin to succeed so much - or rather want the price of Bitcoin to succeed because they speculate on it - that they'll engineer some fraudulent schemes in a relatively unregulated market to support their bank accounts.

I think it's likely a bit of both, but you can't deny there is something unsavory going on with Tether and these offshore exchanges

I had seen this a while ago but should take a fresh look at it - it seems like there should be a community tool that generates data providers from an openapi spec. Thanks!

I'm curious - is there a tool handles solely the "frontend codebase generation" part of this? This looks great, but we already have a well-defined backend and REST API built using Python+FastAPI, with SQLAlchemy as an ORM and Postgres backing it. I am not a good UI/UX designer, but I understand and have built React applications, so really find myself looking for something that can take an OpenAPI.json spec and produce a hackable frontend codebase that follows best practices.

Everyone say a prayer for Twitter engineers trying to fix this tonight

The most impressive thing about Stripe's website is IMO their documentation. I've tried to replicate it using tools like widdershins and slate, but can't get it as beautiful or functional.

> 10/ When we say "inflation-adjusted wages look good," we are actually saying "if you could take your wage back to 1970 and spend it, you'd be better off than you were at the time with a 1970 wage." I mean, maybe that's interesting. But it doesn't describe lived experience.

Isn't more like saying, you can buy more units of 2020 "consumer goods" with a 2020 wage than you could buy 1970 consumer goods with a 1970 wage? His point is just the definition of inflation: $1,000 in nominal dollars more valuable in 1970 than in 2020.

Why have no edtechs created a low cost version of the TI-83/84? One that mirrors the functionality of the TI calcs so that they can still be used with textbooks that are dependent on those. The article estimates the TI's cost $15-20 to make, but even that seems very high for what they are.

I imagine the harder part is getting approval from the organizations that administer standardized tests like College Board and the states themselves.

Is Stripe's "documentation stack" open-source? I've seen Slate and its derivatives, but honestly nothing really comes close to the full (amazing) dev experience their docs provide.
