@daylightco in the Notebook app, is there a way to see a the name of the chosen color of marker/highlighter? I can sometimes infer it from the hex code in the color picker, but it would be super useful if the app gave me a rough sense (e.g. "Nearly black", "Dark red", etc).
It depends a lot on the specifics of how much air youโre trying to exchange and what the temp differential is. And if you donโt have an ERV, then yes, definitely open the window for a while every day. Even if you do have one, itโs nice to open a window. But for most of the country, an ERV is still a good idea if youโre in a house built to modern air tightness standards.
@Nowooski โOpen a windowโ is good when it works, but in most of the US, for most of the year itโs not a great solution due to outdoor temp, humidity, and/or dust. Also often people want CO2 to lowest when theyโre sleeping, which is the time theyโd least want to leave a window open.
@Noahpinion@tonyannett I value so much of your writing, but the depth of your motivated reasoning on this topic has made it increasingly hard to take your other writing seriously.
@tenobrus The alternative is to hash things out behind the scenes on the administration's terms, which was guaranteed to be a losing battle. This shifts the conversation onto ground that's more favorable for Anthropic.
@PalmerLuckey@AlecStapp No argument that the government has been awful on this front for ages. The question is, is the president trying to make it better, or doubling down on the same problem? Every president keeps doubling down.
My wife and I set up the @ImpulseLabs_ stove and cooked some things on it. Thinking through what happens next to every other appliance maker's stove business:
- 2026โ2027: Nothing. Impulse grows, but it's not on their radar yet as a meaningful player. Meanwhile, early adopters aren't even considering brands other than Impulse anymore.
- 2028: Denial. Their sales reps start getting questions from normies about why they don't have temperature sensing or power boil. The sales reps try to explain how their inferior equivalents are just as good, leaning heavily on "Do you really want to buy a stove from a startup? We've been in this business for decades. 'Tech guys are not going to just figure this out. Theyโre not going to just walk in.'"
- 2029: Uh oh. They realize they actually need legit temperature sensing and power boil, and they need the software in the stove to be really good. But they have zero tech competence, their legacy commitments make it almost impossible to pivot the whole company.
- 2030โ2031: The legacy appliance firms release half-baked Impulse competitor stoves โฆ right around the time that Impulse releases its fridge and/or heat pump water heater. Game over.
@KO_Sulli@ImpulseLabs_ That's surprising. The polish and the tech were very impressive to me, so like you said, wonder if it was some wild card factor.
