What’s better for a manager/executive wanting insight into “how happy are my customers” other than their accounting numbers?

Store count seems to have peaked in 2018. Yes that data goes to 2021 but I doubt it got better after that. https://schaeffer.usc.edu/research/pharmacy-closures-united-... The bigge…

I suspect a lot of big orgs don’t care if they lose high-need/low-margin/negative-margin clients that need a couple chains of humans to fix their issue. If they were otherwise high…

It’s probably how their payor measures performance. But I thought the issue with customer surveys was how biased they could be toward negative experiences cuz nobody else is angry …

in other words, this attack could link together different wallets created on the same coldcard?

More likely the higher fees forces through the transaction faster. If it sits around waiting for a miner to pick it up, there's a chance the real owner or competitor could replace-…

What makes it easier on 240v systems is that your entire household is on the same “circuit”. If you’re on a 120v system, there’s a ~50/50 chance that your load is on the wrong side…

Gamecopyworld continues to exist, which has been a while without any unnecessary interface changes.

rather common amongst (ultra)-long voyages?

At some crossover point, the reduced fuel carrying (and max capacity requirement) makes up for the additional takeoff+landing. When we're talking ultra-long-haul, constantly fighti…

Assuming you can regularly land with your fuel tanks half-full. You could overbuild everything to support that, but usually airlines don't want to pay for a niche design to support…

Would make sense to offer packages with lay-flat seats in shifts (possibly formally/informally for people on the same ticket).

may not be worth the aero hit. Kinda like running a/c in a car at high speeds instead of opening the windows. Not sure where the crossover point is. In my dreams, my ultra-advanced…

Also bad for fuel economy (and/or take a hit on cargo/pax/luggage carrying capacity): You have to take off with all that fuel even though you only need X / hr. Increased weight = m…

Dunno if admitting defeat like that is a sign of strength or weakness.

Time to create some esp32-in-a-lightbulb open weight model dead drops. Please don’t open-circuit the light for several hours.

Some enterprising ISPs get into the hosting business because most of their traffic is ingress, so adding some egress revenue is effectively zero cost.
