    Been casually following the ePaper/eInk device space for years now and Modos is one of the more exciting developments I've come across in the space. Seriously impressive. That said…

    Could you point to the OP(s) please? No luck here with HN search

    Technically but enforcement’s another matter. Many subscription services are just going to cancel your plan and paywall you

    Good points. I think the point he was trying to make (or the one I recall, at least) was that higher inflation tends to result in more volatile price moments which damages economie…

    I’d agree on the wages side! Good point. Price stickiness seems dependent on the nature of the goods and contracts, I would expect at least

    That’s the argument - higher inflation is correlated with lower levels of price stability and hampers one’s ability to predict. Other commenters have also (rightly, I think) pointe…

    It's been a while, but I vaguely remember an economics professor of mine stating that it's not inflation which is the core issue for people, firms, and economies, but an increased …

    Good points. It’ll be interesting to see how other major (and growing) SW employers treat WFH flexibility and pay in the coming months/years.

    Those examples seem somewhat contrived. The exchange is not that of physical depreciating assets or even consumable goods. A worker is not giving a coupon to a company for a one ti…

    I tend to agree, unfortunately.

    Perhaps I'm in the minority here given the comments thus far, but I've always been of the opinion that equivalent work should be compensated equivalently and commensurate with the …

    Amazing, but does it stray into E Ink’s protective sphere? No doubt there are manufacturers around the world who are exploring quality general-purpose reflective displays for consu…

    Good question. Skimming the uspto’s documentation, identifying the term does not appear to be a straightforward process [0]. Someone with more experience in the matter might be abl…

    Every time an E Ink article is posted the patent defeatism is inevitable. I’m curious if there are other techniques to implement reflective(?) displays being explored that wouldn’t…

    I read something a while back about AutoCAD using WASM. Found this site after a quick google search but it doesn’t appear to be actively maintained : https://madewithwebassembly.co…

    Long-time resident here -- right on the money. While likely not purposeful, Adler's use of the past tense 'made' (the city so attractive) speaks volumes to the negative trends in a…

    There are a few. Techstars and 500 Global both come to mind but OP may have been referring to another program.

    Just a guess, but I'd assume this is a step in that direction? One somewhat related item -- the federal prohibition of alcohol (Amendment 18) and its repeal (Amendment 21) -- stems…

    Idk. I agree with the idea put forth by some of the other posters in that the natural dog environment is amongst humans. To me it’s about the ‘jobs to be done’ fit that’s important…

    I think this author is missing a major piece of dog park social norms where spaying & neutering are concerned -- behavioral changes that (ostensibly) arise from de-sexing dogs, par…

    Mac Pros have been coming out of Austin since 2013; the article details as much. Furthermore, Austin's been a major center for the US semi-conductor industry for quite some time. H…

    Being that you are based in SF, do you think that you are equipped to provide services to job seekers in other cities (i.e. Austin, NYC, Boston, Raleigh, or Seattle)?
