The study rejects Coase's conjecture by showing e-book prices don't fall to marginal cost, with sales persisting over time. Authors propose commitment to pricing or consumer outside options as alternative explanations.
Creation is the ultimate form of pursuing ourselves, giving to the world when shared, and using the power of our subconscious. It gives us joy, and to every artist, it is the ultimate (flow) state of happiness. The act of creation is an outlet. It gives joy to us when we create something out of nothing, we block out anxiety or boredom. a kid in mind: effortless, exploring your thoughts, and ...
SpaceX's stock fell below its $135 IPO price, marking a decline from its $2.2 trillion market cap peak and Elon Musk's $800B net worth. The company, now in AI expansion via Cursor acquisition and xAI merger, faces investor concerns over spending and debt, similar to Meta's post-IPO volatility.
Purchased a low-cost USB 3.0 hub that's mostly USB 2.0 with flimsy build and safety risks, leading to buyer's remorse due to deceptive ads and return complications.
The article argues that recreating native HTML elements like buttons from scratch is a Sisyphean task due to their complex accessibility requirements, such as keyboard navigation and ARIA roles, which are inherently handled by native elements. It emphasizes using semantic HTML to avoid maintenance burdens and ensure user expectations are met.
The Victorian-era *Naturalist’s Library* democratized access to natural history through illustrated books, now digitally restored by Nicholas Rougeux using AI, offering free online and affordable print/poster versions to inspire future naturalists.
The data includes USD revenue ($780,996 monthly, $1.18M annual), paying customers (12,018 monthly, 18,455 annual), and registered accounts (290,703 monthly, 439,046 annual) for January 2026.
The article reflects on the 1980s shift from proprietary to open-source software, crediting Richard Stallman's advocacy for free knowledge-sharing as foundational to tech progress. It warns that AI's increasing closure risks stifling innovation and transparency, urging open access to models and data to preserve scientific and societal advancement.
Grok Build is SpaceXAI's terminal-based AI coding agent with a TUI for codebase interaction, file editing, shell commands, and task management, supporting macOS, Linux, and Windows. It uses Rust, offers CLI installation, and is Apache 2.0 licensed with third-party notices.
Musklr shows your current set, what you lifted last time, and a running rest timer on the iPhone Lock Screen. You do not unlock the phone and you do not open the app. Glance at it, then get back under the bar. Live Activities are Apple's way of letting an app keep a small, updating card on your Lock Screen while something is in progress. You have probably seen one for a food delivery or a ...
SQLite is praised for its embedded use and self-contained design but faces challenges with ROWID reuse, flexible typing leading to data validation issues, and concurrency limitations. Solutions like strict tables, WAL mode, and an edition system for updated defaults are proposed to address these issues while maintaining compatibility.

The author builds an APL interpreter in Python, inspired by Ruslan Spivak's Pascal interpreter series, focusing on tokenizing APL code right-to-left, parsing into an AST, and handling unique APL features like negation (¯) and operators. The project includes a GitHub repo for collaboration and aims to demonstrate interpreter construction through practical examples and incremental development.
Reynard is an iOS browser using Gecko (Firefox's engine) to bypass outdated WebKit on older iOS versions, enabling modern website compatibility. It's experimental, requires sideloading via TrollStore/AltStore, and relies on community contributions for development.
Upgraded from an 8-year-old Thinkpad to a MacBook for better battery and screen, but found its sharp edges uncomfortable. Modified the edges with a metal file and sandpaper, avoiding complex tools, to improve usability without noticeable wear.
Bluesky acquired the "ATPROTOCOL" trademark to protect the atproto community from legal threats, ensuring free use while defending against misuse. Licensing is optional for most, mandatory for branding, and future ownership may shift to an independent governance body.
Scaling relational databases beyond a few terabytes requires sharding to distribute data and queries across multiple servers, overcoming bottlenecks in write throughput and backup efficiency. Tools like Neki and Vitess act as intelligent proxies, routing traffic to the correct shards and abstracting complexity for applications.
A 13-year-old HP server with Ivy Bridge Xeons runs Google's 26B-parameter Gemma 4 model at ~5 tokens/second via CPU-optimized code, overcoming AVX2 instruction set limitations with custom patches. The project highlights adapting modern AI to legacy hardware through engineering, not just subscriptions, enabling local inference on outdated systems.
