Likewise, see the phrase "grist to the mill".

I've imagined having an OLED screen which only flashes on momentarily. Could be used for writing without editing.

Elon: If there is no owner of the requirement to have a steering wheel, then we won't take it as a requirement.

Sadly or happily for me: one device, one specific pair of bluetooth headphones. I've started getting the $15 ones.

> I would have thought anything that can radiate heat slowly and consistently would by necessity also absorb heat slowly and consistently

Something like a ratio of flame-side heat absorption at flame temperatures, to room-side emissivity at room-side temperatures(wavelengths)?? This could fall out from material properties without appearing as an explicit design detail (e.g. a surface treatment).

As is commonly known, the Buddha taught that there is the high path, the middle path, and the meth path.

Besides cost today, may also help mitigate a possible helium shortage in the future.

Also: MRI@Home?

Forty years ago there was already this sentiment, as best as I can recall the quote: "It is well known that as the scale of the research grows, peer review becomes less effective."

Walter Bright had a similar looking zed.exe, at least as part of Zortech C++.

Jef Raskin: "Intuitive" == familiar.

User never used/discovered it before == not familiar.

Temple Grandin has a newer book titled Visual Thinking. She tells of two groups taught to sharpen flints (IIRC). The first group had instruction only by gestures and example; the second group also had written or spoken instruction. Apparently persons in the first group developed skill faster. Overall she suggests that words can distract from visual observation or attention.

IIRC Derrick Jensen refers to an experiment in which apes caught on to cheating behavior faster than humans, presumably because they were not fooled by any spoken claims.

It would be very very small.

Trick: "Dear teacher, Johnny was sick yesterday and could not attend school. Sincerly, Johnny's mom."

Anti-trick: Soon the teachers themselves will not be able to read cursive (or perhaps, recognize the spelling error).

Although correlated, I'm less worried about the doctors than all the prescription errors which were said to kill many people.

And still the style does not go to 11.

> Rubber Duck AI chat bot

This sounds more like friendly AI than [different] "Devil's Advocate chat bot."

And it's whitelabel all the way down. So, is this just one generic universe of many?

> make no money on sales

On the model of "make the profit on replacement parts," perhaps grocery chains should be buying hospitals chains to profit from all the unhealthy food they are selling.

Can the training be parallelized in a manner similar to SETI-at-home?

> the retro burn won’t slow you down, and you’re flying into deep space.

Came here with the same question: But can it stop?

> if I were to leave Earth orbit

Tangential or off-topic, but there must be some potential to send semi-autonomous avatar robots, with on-Earth help with perceptual interpretation and executive control. Yet another counterfactual "if only the manned space budget had been spent on that" question.

I once heard of a project manager being told by the project's accountant: "I can tell you are behind, because your spend rate is lower than planned."

Once more popular,there is a method called "programmed learning" where, based upon your answers to intermittent test questions, you might repeat a lesson or move ahead. Or, private tutors who would handle multiple subjects were once(?) more of a thing. Seems to me there is a brakthrough level of potential here, so ... yes.

Will the potential be realized, be cost-effective for the masses, etc? Not so sure.

> Pay people whose works you want to extract value from

So, e.g., from Basic Attention Token (BAT) to Basic Authorship Token (also BAT)?

IBM, Kodak, ... also PARC in the popular mix of such comparisons?

Bonus: She both solves a crime and diagnoses a medical condition from drops of blood found at the crime scene.

To demonstrate a mechanical analogy for impedance, something-something use electrolytics in place of diodes.

Maybe stop using necessary "preceeding" verbs and actions to indicate state, but use explicit ON or OFF to match the desired result?

It is common in telling someone how to use a UX that they need to "disable" X or Y option, but, again, that is to say that the intended state is on or off.

Well put. Could adding either the words: "Current state:" or "Action:" clarify this?

With toggles, I'd almost rather see them aligned center with explicit state description to either side.

If I understand, bad (against user interest) defaults can be called a dark pattern, but shouldn't purposely misleading state indication also deserve the direct label: deceptive practice?

As a sample, I just glanced at the UBI discussion there. Each claim pro and con, when clicked upon, seems to break into another level of claims pro and con. And apparently crowdsourced as well. Looks like a fantastic resource. Very much what I was hoping for.
