You need a way to anizotrophpic filter the voxels. This means the mipmap should be fully indexable. That is n^3 * m memory for mipmap and n^4 filtering...

Isotopic filtering is easier, just 3*n. However, it will make surfaces look... unreal, as if physics didn't form them, at times.

You cannot wing the quality as easily in 3D though. Continuity is paramount as is some degree of smoothness. Ringing is unacceptable.
But your comparison is just wrong. You try to bash argument that "everything in moderation is harmless" by taking example of something that is out of scope. Person saying "everything in moderation" does not imply jumping into volcanos done in moderation is harmless. "Everything" in that statement is more like, alcohol, drugs etc. not sulfuric acid injections.
When I had an apartment with several rooms and non-working air conditioning, what I did was to open a window near the front of the apartment, in the dining room, and set up a large fan to blow out the window. Then I would open a window in my bedroom, at the opposite end of the apartment, to provide inflow. This was very effective at reducing the summer inside temperature to that of the outside at night, where the purported "heat pump" built in did essentially nothing.

The only issue was that it also sucked rain and pollen in as well.

If you're being held at knifepoint by a mad man in a home invasion, your best course of action is to take the first opportunity to either escape or neutralize the kidnapper with violence.

When you're symbolically held in an office for press coverage and you know you'll be fed, and released in a few days, your best course of action is to sit down and play on your phone for 24h.

I'm not pro union, but is that so hard to understand? Are you really going to make a keyboard warrior claim here that you'd stick a fork in the neck of a union member holding you 'hostage' the first opportunity you get?

The Xperia phones and E-paper offerings are products where Sony could have been competitive with the market leaders (Apple, Amazon), partly because they were among the first to market, but they chose not to spend much on R&D and thus lost their dominance.

Using a fan actually increases the temperature of the room due to the motor providing heat.

Theorem Proving in Lean
that was in "carpe jugulum", and was indeed an amazing quote.

here's a good post about it: https://www.firstthings.com/web-exclusives/2011/09/terry-pra...

which quotes the passage in question:

"There is a very interesting debate raging at the moment about the nature of sin, for example,” said Oats. “And what do they think? Against it, are they?” said Granny Weatherwax.

“It’s not as simple as that. It’s not a black and white issue. There are so many shades of gray.”

“Nope.”

“Pardon?”

“There’s no grays, only white that’s got grubby. I’m surprised you don’t know that. And sin, young man, is when you treat people as things. Including yourself. That’s what sin is.

“It’s a lot more complicated than that . . .”

“No. It ain’t. When people say things are a lot more complicated than that, they means they’re getting worried that they won’t like the truth. People as things, that’s where it starts.”

“Oh, I’m sure there are worse crimes ...”

“But they starts with thinking about people as things ...”

That is exactly what it does. So when you explicitly break, the for body was executed.

> You can fix that problem by also adding a PRF (pseudorandom function) that you rate-limit vigorously. Think of a PRF as a keyed hash -- the usual example is HMAC-SHA256. If you're capable of keeping PRF key material safe but might leak a database dump (not unreasonable), the PRF forces the attack to be online: an attacker can only validate guesses as long as they have access to the PRF, and the PRF comes with audit trails and rate limits.

That particular part is assuming security through not knowing the implementation of the security models components, aka. security through obscurity. Rule no. 1 in security, always assume that the adversary knows exactly how everything is implemented and can do that for himself.
That's funny because I used to work in a shop that send ppl the other way around after a 6 week bootcamp... Anecdata and all... I don't think there are many ppl in either de or uk who emigrate for purely economic reasons - it's for the adventure first, and of course more money is always nice.
[I'm french] The contractors market is BIG in France. At least in the computers industry. And it's getting bigger and bigger.

The current trend is to externalize ALL the computer-related work, which is crazy as in the companies I've worked at, we (contractors) were in charge of the "crown jewels" of the company; without us, nothing would have worked. Nothing. So, yes, we are easier to fire (by simply stopping a contract), but our knowledge is lost, so the productivity takes a HUGE hit everytime (and don't ask me about documentation or knowledge transfer, those are considered a loss of time by the management!)

There are laws against it, to prevent the "disguised worker" phenomenon, but those laws are useless and ignored or there are work-arounds. The truth is, when you stay for more than 3 years in the same job (like I did), it's obvious that you ARE acting as a regular salaried worker.

Nowadays, it's much more difficult to find a job at a company than it was 20 years ago (or more). Consulting/contracting companies have replaced all those workers. with HUGE negative consequences on productivity, loyalty & workers' attitude.

In the -big- telecom companies I've worked at, as a contractor, you had 50% to 80% of contractors in the teams!

About 15 years ago, I worked in a BIG telecom company, who stopped ALL their contracts before the end of the year (to have numbers that looked "good"). All activity ground to a halt, because the people who "did stuff" were the contractors. Nothing was done during the 3 months period it took to rehire (mostly the same people). Salaried coworkers who were there during that period told me that the corridors were empty, and that it felt really weird to come and work in mostly empty buildings... Of course, they lost many people who had started other contracts. A smaller company would probably have gone bankrupt.

You also pay less for rent, less for food, less for your internet bill, less for your phone bill than in America.

In the end if you live in SF vs Germany you might earn twice as much, but you spend 3 times as much. In Seattle it's maybe a better factor, but that's one of the few places with worse weather than Germany.

And then you have to account for 4 weeks less vacation, no paid overtime (or overtime as time off). I usually do two 3 week vacations a year and 2 weeks over Christmas. It's not only pay that counts.

Given a sufficiently large table, an agent can certainly perceive without acting (testing a hypothesis) that "A+C=B" through its compressibility; the most compact(least complex) representation of the data can replace the many individual datapoints in one column with a learned rule how to calculate it.

There's related research on how children learn language, namely, how much observed evidence (i.e. based on cases where we have monitored and counted every word a child has heard in their life) is needed for a child to switch from a "lookup table" approach for certain features to "rule based" approach (detectable by observing overregularization, applying a systematic rule even when the actual language, including examples the child has heard, has an exception to that rule) and then to a "rule+exceptions" correct understanding; the experiments point towards "learning a rule" then and only then when a "compressed representation" is beneficial from information theory point of view.
I agree on "maximally far apart", but more in the horizontal than the vertical direction.

Sou, let's say a new deadline sets you up for failure. You communicate this perspective. You manage the pang of panic, get to work, do your best.

It's still failure.

It's not that you disappoint yourself, since you _knew_ it was practically impossible to succeed. You dealt with your reality, you mastered your domain. People will still get angry and disappointed that the deadline was not met. Not always, but some (most) of the time, you'll end up taking the blame, or even disciplined/fired.

What you're met with is "So what, change jobs, reframe your perspective, grab life by the balls".

This kind of positive thinking does not solve anything. It's simplistic and misdirected. You'll eventually find this situation in every job you take (or make). What can you learn from the experience? No amount of "mastering your reality" will make this a positive experience. Ok, maybe the first time, you learn that you can't always win. But that is all, no lessons learned for all subsequent ocurrences.

Yes, I'm bitter. But you're saccharine.

Not your fault, but i'm sick of seeing this kind of naive responses that belong in mugs or motivational posters.
You're mistaken. The verb is vidēre, videō, vidī, visum.

There is also the noun vīsum, -ī, plural visa with the primary meaning the seen [thing], appearance, perception. This is the word that was borrowed into English and other languages.

>Most people who are getting college degrees nowadays simply can't make enough use of them to even break even.

Which means, most of these positions are in fact 'tails' of the distribution, they don't really exist, they are a net loss vs positions that pay less but do not require diploma. Because more people are getting diplomas than there are jobs really requiring it. If employers CAN get away with requiring a diploma for a position which doesn't really need it - why not doing it? At least it guarantees getting an employee which will be more loyal as he has to repay college debt so needs stable income. And they can get away with it because people falsely believe that college is a path to success and burn enormous money and years of life there.

You need a stronger bound than this. They have to be possible to approximate govern specific network size, architecture and activation functions. Calculating that (or good statistics that will say so approximately) is a hard problem...
It is solvable for a bunch of activations in a layered perceptron but attempt extending this to something more complex.
It's much more difficult to justify making someone redundant (licenciement économique) or to fire someone who has become an asshole or isn't performing. In other jurisdictions where I've worked, the employee gets their notice period. In France, the employer is often under implicit threat of an inspecteur du travail, a government work inspector, who will wrap the company up in shitload of bureaucratic audits.

I don't think this makes a lot of sense. Poverty line is defined as < 60% of median income. Median income in France is heavily influenced by the minimum wage income. As a consequence, anyone working part time will be considered under the poverty line.

And in France, making less than 60% of median wage certainly doesn't make you rich, but you still get access to basic need (healthcare, even housing in some cases).

I'd rather be piss-poor in France than in the US.
The main problem with France is the employment laws. Start-ups in other countries don't have this problem to the same extent. The secondary problem is that there is a lot of capital floating around in France with 'strings attached', great to get you going, but a huge problem later on.

Fans achieve two effects: ventilation (air exchange between two voids) and circulation (air distribution within a void). The first will achieve the goal of replacing a fluid volume with another (hotter/colder), but may not evenly mix the fluid within the conditioned volume.

Overpressures tend to prduce airstreamss or turbulence downstream, but underpressures don't induce much flow beyond the immediate orifice. Unless convection, ducting and venting can reliably create flow patterns, blowing air in to a conditioned space is a better option thansucking ot out, though if you want to control for emissions (say, filtering exhaust), you might want to combile both.

There's a classic physics experiment showing what happens when you run a water sprinkler, the kind with a spinning arm and one or more jets, backwards (sucking rather than blowing), and hhow it doesn't spin. Feynman discusses this in a story.

The fan(s) themselves contribut some additional heat to the space, but this is fairly negligible, especially relative to circulation effects.

If the heat source is external (e.g., incident sunlight), then natural airflow patterns which might draw air through a hotter chamber (say, an attic or other roof void) could have the opposit of the intended effect. It's key to check overall circulatory flow.

And if internal systems, or people, have significant evaaporative or similar cooling mechanisms, increased internal circulation will greatly improve cooling capacity.

Forced inflow may increase dust or other factors, if not filtered.

TL;DR: If you've only one option, I'd blow in rather than suck out. You might want to consider overall airflow, circulation, and heat distribution or souces (and sinks) within the void. Blowing onto rather than away from the primary heat source (in a cooling scenario) is likely best. If heat sources are external, exhaust from the top of the void is optimal.

Intakes should generally be low, exhausts high (for coolng).

For a large enough and complex enough (multiple chambers, zone, multiple heat sources, significant convection effects, dead zones), you would likely want a combination of intake, circulation, and exhaust fans, though I'd prioritise them in that order.

There are variations of the problem that explore the benefits to/of competition when there are more vendors.

If there are 3 vendors and the vendors are allowed to collaborate, a coalition of 2 vendors will form, they will
place there stands at positions 1/4 and 3/4, same as the optimum for consumers with 2 vendors, and the 2-vendor team will get 3/4 the business, which they may share equally by side payments, and the outcast vendor will get only 1/4 of the business, regardless of where he locates. If he locates anywhere other than right next to one of the duopolists, however, the closest duopolist can then relocate closer to the outcast to decrease the outcast's market share. Thus, an unregulated market of 3 vendors with anticompetitive behavior allowed, will only match the optimum (for customers) that is attainable with 2 vendors and centralized planning. The labor and capital of the 3rd vendor produce no benefit to the customers. If you think that this situation is unrealistic, compare it to the market in the USA for steel back when a single firm with its center of production in Pittsburgh was dominant: the dominant pricing model for all firms was 'Pittsburgh plus.' This means that steel customers, regardless of which vendor they chose or where that vendor actually produced the steel, paid shipping charges from Pittsburgh. The customers got no benefit from the geographic diversity of the industry.

If there are 3 vendors, and if the beach is regulated so that each vendor must select his/her own location before finding out what locations the others have chosen, with collaboration and moving of locations prohibited, what locations will the 3 vendors choose?
