Thanks! I've seen various attempts to articulate different aspects of this but I may be able to find a better way to put it, and hopefully it would at least help you understand the position better.
If Apple is going to hide eye movements from apps, that sounds very much like an alignment tax situation - a headset that doesn't do this is going to get a lot of capabilities advantages, so Apple will need to stay far ahead on other fronts continuously to overcome that.
In the words of Matt Levine, he was in the Ponzi business, and business was good, my understanding is they did quite well by cashing in early.
Sounds good. I still do care if they are going to impact the takeaway (e.g. they aren't obviously typos).
That would have been great but we rented the house because we didn't expect to stay. We did buy our NYC place upon return, which was an even better trade - I'm up >1 year's salary on the interest rate alone.
Feedback: Yep, thank you. Due to reading and notification patterns, time is of the essence when fixing things, so I encourage typo threads to be (1) on Substack so I get an email notification right away and (2) done as soon after release as possible. By Monday the returns to typo fixing are mostly gone.
We don't have a car, the problem doesn't go away within driving distance, and it's expected to get better within a few days. Already things are MUCH better.
Tyler Cowen used "Doers" in an email and I'm definitely considering that. Short, effective, clear, non-offensive. It's not symmetrical with Doomers though.
I hear that rant. I do my best now to reconcile thing into a cohesive whole in text but that means the timestamps are gone, so if I miss something later I can't tell.
I am skeptical that we're near the end of the useful road on data/compute, although I agree that in the 2030 timeframe that's not where the low hanging fruit is mostly going to be. My prediction of 'this 2030 arrives by 2027' is based largely on other ways of improving.
To extent compute/data help I think of it more as helping to enable other things.
