  1. Vanguard regularly pushes the envelope on cutting fees for investment products. In 2025 they reduced their fee structure by 350M (1)

  2. The G7 pairs directly with an Apple Watch and acts as the primary sync device. Unlike the G6, you don’t get null readings displaying on the watch until you open the app. I have the dexcom widget on my Apple Watch series 10 with a G7 paired with direct to watch and it always displays the current reading
  3. I believe it’s a limitation of the memory controller on the M4 chip. It can only address 32 gb of ram. Addressing more ram would require more die space
  4. I love this feature in Apple’s ecosystem so much. The newer iOS and iPadOS releases when autofilling a sign-up form even give an option to generate a new hide my email address. It’s effortless to not use your real email. If you pay for an iCloud subscription, hide my email is included. Apple tracks what site you used hide my email on when signing up and allows you to toggle forwarding of emails to your inbox on and off.
  5. It’s also frequently used to price stock options given to employees at publicly traded companies.
  6. > You can run DOOM Eternal, building the Stadia that Google couldn’t pull off, because the L40S hasn’t forgotten that it’s a graphics GPU.

    Savage.

    I wonder if we’ll see a resurgence of cloud game streaming

  7. Take a look at streamlit as well. It’s got a few weird sharp edges but is really easy to pick up
  8. It’s worth noting that companies are testing flu + COVID vaccines as an all in one shot. I think most people don’t want to come to their pharmacy for multiple jabs.

  9. There's a hammer museum in Haines Alaska with similar vibes. Countless different types of hammers.

  10. Is this more safe or less safe than laundering cash the old fashioned way?

    Jokes aside, it’s incredible that the FBI could still attribute transactions

    Not explicitly related to management but good advice. I’ve seen too many people put in a position of power and become assholes. It destroys morale.

  12. If you’re open to it, can you share what resources you used to learn Django and htmx?
  13. Can you please update the terraform docs for google batch? In [1] it’s really difficult to know what everything in the json configuration is under the base64encode() call. What levers can I pull? How do I run something more complex than hello world? Do I need my CICD to upload scripts to GCS and have the instance download them at runtime and hardcode that path into the batch script?

  14. I think it’s slightly more complex than that. Apple included in their processor design custom extensions to ARM that alter things like memory order to make emulation easier [1]. It’s not just control over the software stack that makes Rosetta so performant.

  15. In most financial models, the return investors demand on risky assets like stocks depends on the opportunity cost of the risk free rate [eg 1]. As the risk free rate goes up, the return investors expect on risky assets also goes up which pushes their price down.

  16. All I want for Christmas is the ability to set multiple timers on my iPhone.
  17. I pay $70 for 1 Gb/s but I usually end up getting 800-900 mbps up/down when I run a Speedtest which is fine by me. I switched to centurylink fiber during the pandemic. Before that I was paying comcast $65 for 100 down / 10 up.

  18. Soccer.

    For those in the Seattle area there are multiple adult leagues (Seattle RATS is what I play in). We play year round on turf, rain or shine. They’ve got beginners divisions and over 30s divisions. They also host a free Saturday skills clinic.

  19. I live in Seattle, having moved from California. The thing that helped me more than anything was playing soccer outdoors year round. Rain or snow. Several times a week. The exercise more than anything helped me get over the dark and the grey. The fact that it’s a team sport and 10+ other people are counting on me to show up helps keep me accountable.
