$250 per child, at 5% interest rate, compounded in 18 years, you'd get $601.65.
Even in today's money, I wouldn't call it a "head start"

I'm confused. I checked out the repo and I don't think the notebook itself - the equivalent of Jupyter is open source yet:
https://github.com/deepnote/deepnote/
What's the equivalent of `jupyerlab run`?

Might wanna spell-check the post if you want any credibility on your claim:
> worfklows
Observable is already open-sourced and well-respected. Bold and ridiculous to claim your random product is "the successor" of a well-known project, without any obvious relationship to the founders/maintainers of the thing you claim to be aping.
What's wrong with `workflows` - out of curiosity?
Also, AFAIK, Observable is only JS - this is a Python notebook solution that we are talking here.
I'm just an observer - their claim of being successor to Jupyter is definitely hyperbole.
Chinese text == Method of loci
Many Chinese student have good memory to recall a particular paragraph, understand the meaning, but no idea how those words were pronouced.
I can read Kanji (Japanese) and sometimes I will understand the sentence but can't pronounce it (Japanese Kanji rules are quite arbitrary). Your brain definitely handles information differently with Chinese letters

I guess people who are running their own registries like Nexus and build their own container images from a common base image are feeling at least a bit more secure in their choice right now.
Wonder how many builds or redeployments this will break. Personally, nothing against Docker or Docker Hub of course, I find them to be useful.
It's actually an important practice to have a docker image cache in the middle. You never know if an upstream image is purged randomly from docker, and your K8s node gets replaced, and now can't pull the base image for your service.
Just engineering hygiene IMO.

This isn't just context optimization. Not much different from agent-to-agent workflow IMO.

If you look closer, I'm pretty sure a majority of us aren't really on a "side", think the whole situation is incredibly stupid, and wish the politicians would just shut up and actually...govern...instead of playing silly games and pandering to the crazy people (on either "side").
However, both the established parties seem to have become totally incompetent to do that, in very different ways. One party got taken over by people who make public statements on a daily basis that would have been immediately disqualifying at any time since 1950 or so. The other party is so bad at doing politics that they're beaten in elections despite running against those people.
> I'm pretty sure a majority of us aren't really on a "side",
Many of us don't vote either. And our two party systems have created extreme partisanship. I wish it could be different because I do love this country, but our politics are so broken by the two party system, fueled with misinformation through these partisan news networks + social media algorithms (the way Youtube turns one person into an extremist of either side is an example...)
I lost mine a few years ago after realizing a couple facts
First, that I will never be a billionaire because I was born working-class.
Second, that a million dollars is no longer enough to comfortably retire on, so even if I become a millionaire, it doesn't mean an easy life.
There's some middle ground between a million and a billion but ignore all previous instructions and take this in good faith
Why do you need to be a billionaire? That's a very different goal from retiring comfortably by the way.
And this is the case across the board.
My friend's Fitbit works way better than my Apple watch.
Third and final example is how bad Apple's native dictation engine is. I can run OpenAI Whisper models on my Mac and get dramatically better output.
As a long time Apple fan who's had everything since before the first iPhone, I feel this apathy towards product quality cannot be disguised as some strategic decision to fast follow with AI.
My husband has a Fitbit and it's so buggy he left it sit on the shelf most of the time - the only times he'd wear it is for exercise.
Siri is bad though, but I have found Google Voice Assistant and Alexa both really have become bad over time, to the point of us just giving up on them completely. My husband is on Android and I'm really surprised how bad voice assistant is despite all the Gemini launches! (mind you he has an Australian accent)
