MacBook Air (2020) Review: One Month Later
MacBook Air (2020) Review: One Month Later
MacBook Aired! The first 200 of you who go to this link will get 20% your annual Brilliant subscription: https://www.brilliant.org/reneritchie Ian Cutress of AnandTech joins me to talk MacBook Air thermals! The new MacBook Air, an update the the 2018 redesign, got pretty good reviews when it came out a month ago. People liked the new keyboard, the new chipsets, and the lower price. But, there were a few criticisms as well. Basically, the still low-res webcam, some concerns about thermal throttling on the faster CPUs, and the battery life. Since then, I’ve had time to pound on the Magic keys, compare the web cam to pretty much everything else I have, really dig into the thermals, and there’s even been a macOS Catalina supplemental update. So, what if any difference does a month make?

“What makes a great teacher?” answered by four great teachers
“What makes a great teacher?” answered by four great teachers
But you can tell a lot about a teacher by how they respond when students don’t succeed. Some will say, “What’s wrong with you?” Others will ask, “What’s wrong with me?” great teachers know three things: they know their subject, they know how to explain their subject, and they know their students. Knowing the history of a topic, the interesting problems, the common misconceptions, the multiple approaches, the links to other topics. And it’s about expert communication of all of that. They co-create educational experiences with their students because they realize that students hold key knowledge of their own that most don’t acknowledge or even recognize.

Nikhil Krishnan’s Vöxtur interview
Nikhil Krishnan’s Vöxtur interview
I want to make healthcare a place that people are excited about fixing, and step one of that process is just explaining to people what those problems are. I want to discover how to normalize meeting friends through the internet. Now my view is, “How can I find the right person to help me get through this obstacle?” I think simply spending time with people at your own career level that you think are high potential people and just staying near them and working with them on as many things as possible is the way to go. ​ I think a lot of people try to create a very manicured version of themself online, and then when you meet them offline, there’s this huge delta.

Choices in Loneliness
Choices in Loneliness
and listening to the breathing of the woods and read until I fell asleep for several days ​ there are all kinds of loneliness, both necessary and unnecessary, the kinds we choose and the types that are foisted on us, varieties that come from heartbreak but also from freedom.

That Discomfort You’re Feeling Is Grief
That Discomfort You’re Feeling Is Grief
Anticipatory grief is that feeling we get about what the future holds when we’re uncertain. ​ If you feel the worst image taking shape, make yourself think of the best image. We all get a little sick and the world continues. Not everyone I love dies. Maybe no one does because we’re all taking the right steps. Neither scenario should be ignored but neither should dominate either. ​ We can — we should — stop at the first feeling. I feel sad. Let me go for five minutes to feel sad. Your work is to feel your sadness and fear and anger whether or not someone else is feeling something. ​ Emotions need motion.

Coauthored with Tyler Bryson and John Terilla, Topology is published through MIT Press and will be released on August 18, 2020. But you can pre-order on Amazon now!

Mathematical proof that rocked number theory will be published
the journal’s acceptance would create a situation that is “historically unparalleled in mathematics: a claim by a well-respected journal that they have vetted the proof of an extremely well-known conjecture, while most experts in the field who have looked into this have been unable to understand the proof”.

#121: Don’t Go Back to Rockville
Thinking about the future, at its best, is really just another way to process the present, and there’s never been a better time to do that. ​ but what’s increasingly obvious to me is how this crisis will decisively divide the world in two along many different axes. Some of those fault lines are obvious, and were already splitting open: at-risk or healthy; hourly or salaried; manual laborer or knowledge worker.

Positional Scarcity and the Virus
Positional Scarcity and the Virus
You can’t help but wonder: if we’re forced for an entire year to forego the in-person benefits of these practices, what happens when life returns to normal? ​ It’s basic human nature to pursue positional scarcity, and to do whatever it takes to compete for it. The virus won’t change that.
