> At the time of the acquisition Uber planned to integrate Drizly into Uber Eats, but never came did.

"but never came did" Is this a grammar mistake or am I reading it incorrectly? Am I going out on a limb thinking that Techcrunch might be leaning into LLMs and reducing their editor's oversight.

Yes, I had a 15 month non-compete after leaving a high frequency trading firm. I got married and traveled 3 months around Asia (Japan, Korea, S.E. Asia, Australia). We came back and did some domestic travel then she went back to work and I started to concentrate on job search and personal projects.

The travel was great and unforgettable. I would suggest taking it slow if you are thinking of something similar. We enjoyed places when we were there for at least a week or more. We both eventually got fatigued from the constant moving and planning. I would certainly do it again but I would try to spend more time in total and longer stays at fewer places.

When I got back and my wife was working again, I tried to stay physically active to take up as much time as possible. I committed to expanding some of my knowledge by working in languages and frameworks that I wasn't exposed to in my last position.

Even with the effort to keep active and learning there is still a lot of time on your hands when you are not working. This tends to get filled with more low potential pastimes like video games, TV, etc. Everyone I know who had a similar non-compete leaned on these pastimes more than they wanted to, but its really hard to fill that much time with productive activities. If you want to avoid your vices I would suggest setting out a plan for 3, 6, 9 months and revisiting it every month. I'm not saying you have to stick to your goals but you should stay long term oriented to be productive.

I believe the dark side of the moon would be more apt for radio astronomy. The obvious reason being that the Moon is blocking interference of artificial radio signals on Earth.

I would be really interested to no what the cost of this program is. Even if it's above a modest cost I think it's something the city should look into providing going forward. We should consider providing basic services to all our residents no questions asked starting with food and hygiene services. I also think New York could be greatly improved by providing public bathrooms and showers.

I would be very interested to know what innovation allows them produce Lidar at this price point.

Necessity is the mother of invention. I think a couple of these problems are overstated and if truly forced to create substitutes many non-US companies would step up to the challenge.

Can anyone comment on Bezo's claim that there will be so much more energy in Space via Solar Power. Based on what I'm reading the acre of solar power panels the ISS has generates less energy than what could equivalently be generated on the Earth's surface. I cannot imagine the lack of night/day cycle overcoming the amount of energy it takes to send an acre of solar panels into orbit in the first place.

Someone needs to figure out why the Grand Jury chose not to indict. This man was murdered in front of multiple witnesses. There must have been incredible extenuating circumstances if a Grand Jury chose not to indict.

Edit:

Come to think of it, the likely reason why the Grand Jury chose not to indict could have been self defense.

Not sure if anyone else has noticed this pattern but I've seen it in a number of NYT articles that I would like to aggregate. There are seemingly offhanded paragraphs that ignore the issue at hand and insert something pro-NSA/pro-weak crypto.

From this article take the second to last paragraph.

At the least, readers of “Chaos Monkeys” will think twice before taking at face value tech leaders’ high-minded arguments for refusing to assist our national security apparatus in fighting terrorist threats. Even in the area of advertising, important social and public policy questions are implicated.

This comment hardly fits into the theme and flow of the rest of the review.
