And using Claude with Cline, partially because of prompt caching, it's noticeably cheaper as well.

I see that the last commit was 2 years ago. Do you know any other alternatives?

I think an analogy could be made that you’re walking into a market hall because they promoted it. The stall owners will be paying to be part of that. It’s not that you’re property of the market hall, but you’re on their property and they will want to be paid.

Just remember that an A/C is also a heat pump. Lots of apartments around the world with A/C.

If we ever get to that point, could your 50 seater be easily equipped with that, or would you redesign it from the ground up?

So less and local and grass-fed?

Less absolutely (none is best) [0], local isn't that much better [1], grass-fed has its cons and pros [2].

Transport typically accounts for less than 1% of beef’s GHG emissions: choosing to eat local has very minimal effects on its total footprint

As I understand from this "The Plain Bagel" video [0], they're not bankrupt. Instead, they're likely nearing the completion of their debt restructuring.

They're restructuring their debt because they're bankrupt.

The problem is the term "bankruptcy". Colloquially people seem to think a company is just out of money. All you need to file for bankruptcy is to be unable to service debts at a specific time. It might even just be a transitory state.

A company is insolvent when liabilities exceed assets. Companies can remain insolvent indefinitely unless they miss a payment at which point a creditor can force them into bankruptcy where a court oversees liquidation.

Evergrande is insolvent and is now bankrupt. There is no reasonable scenario here where the company continues to operate as a growing concern.

TIL, more than one time of insolvency: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insolvency

I had the same feeling with a lot of interviews from the past, but somehow, about a year ago, something changed. Not sure if it was a conscious decision or just the result of so much practice, but for quite something I haven’t screamed at my screen when listening to Lex.

I've noticed that as well. He frequently also gets distracted thinking about taking ideas to such an abstract level they don't really make sense any longer, he looks off at the ceiling somewhere, and then the guest continues off as if they didn't see that. It makes me crack up every time, hah.

This is in contrast to many other podcasters who stay engrossed in surface level details and never graduate to thinking about overarching concepts. Lex just zooms there too fast sometimes.

I think Lex is a very talented interviewer. His questions often seem low quality (to me), but he pushes the discussion in the correct direction. He seem to be e.g. build sentences where after the first part there is a moment for guest to throw in something or for Lex to judge guest reaction. Or maybe I'm reading too much into it, but regardless, he seem to be able to get something out of these guys which others interviews couldn't. Shining example is Stephen Wolfram who seem to be extremely hard to interview.

Agreed.

Lex's done some of my favorite geek interviews. Just from memory: Stephen Kotkin, Roger Penrose, Lisa Feldman Barrett, Everyday Astronaut, Jim Keller, his own father. Many more I'm sure, if I consulted Lex's archive.

I skip over the episodes with culture warriors. I've already had my fill, thank you very much.

I have a S2, after a few error codes I had my battery replaced. About 6 weeks ago, before all this news, the same error message appeared, which means they have to check my bike. Next available slot: 2 months later.

I’ll never ever buy a bike which can only be serviced by the company selling the bike.

Yeah, I hear you, the risk of buying something so integrated factored into my original decision. I was in London at the time, and after diagnosis of an error code I had, they simply shipped me a new wheel and motor as I said I could fix it myself.

As an aside, do check the connection between the motor and the battery in the fork, comes loose easily and causes all sorts of errors.

I can’t imagine when I’m next going to be able to afford a bike, probably in six or seven years, but I too will be going for something more generic.

Did team members actually use it to develop it?

I was developing stuff to be shown inside the headset that wouldn't have worked in the simulator, so I was frequently using the headset regardless. It was often easier to just leave it on and develop than constantly put it on and take it off to test things out.

As for development of non-VR stuff I personally didn't because I already had a fully-featured desk setup and the OS at the time was buggy enough to not want to deal with it (as every OS is years before release, not a ding on Vision Pro at all). With a good OS (which it will be upon release) and more native apps (like Termius on iPad) I definitely would though!

Do you think it’ll allow Xcode for development? When you say you were wearing it while doing dev work were you pairing it with a MacBook? From what I understand the OS is more similar to iPadOS (no Xcode, ability to compile binaries) vs MacOS.

I honestly don't know that will be supported on the final version, but what I was referring to was developing on a Mac through the Vision Pro and deploying to the Vision Pro.

FWIW the iPad supports dumbed down app development through Swift Playgrounds and presumably the Vision Pro will at the very least support that if it supports all iPad apps, but that's pure speculation.
