Dead, or just stable?

From my testing it looks like WebGL 1 (corresponding to ES 2) is widely available on both mobile and desktop and performs pretty well. I assume WebGL 2 will reach a similar level of support in a couple of years.

For 95% of use cases that’s exactly what we want. I don’t want or need a new 3D standard, I just want the existing standard to work well.

Is there any risk that WebGL 1 availability is going to regress? I hope not!

WebGL is definitely not yet suitable for AAA games, and I’m sure there must be disagreement over the best way to get there. Is that what you’re referring to?
That's incredibly interesting, thanks.

>It doesn't need to have a living tree.

Faulty assumption on my part. Obviously one can date dead wood just the same, I just assumed that non-living samples from ancient eras would be harder to come by or of lower quality having been deconstructed. While it seems that there's some truth to that, it couldn't be more wrong from a composite point of view.
>I'm old fashioned and read much faster than a human can talk, so I don't see the reason to spend 45 min watching a talking head.

I agree that people can read at 200+ wpm while most people only talk at ~100 wpm. However, some programming presentations are visually intensive with demonstrations of interactive features. That would be videos such as showing how an IDE works (debugging tips and tricks), CSS transforms, GUI workflow (e.g. navigate AWS admin screens to set up security, auto-scaling, etc). For example, I see that the landing page has severgal Google I/O keynotes and those are always heavy with demos.

But yes, for presentations of static text such as explaining the new syntax for C++11, a "talking head" reading the slides may not add much value and just slow you down.

As for transcripts... Since many videos seem to come from YouTube, it may be possible to download the auto-generated captions.[1] (I don't have a YouTube account so I have no idea how well this works.) I noticed one presentation where a speaker was talking about "Qt" framework but the Youtube's speech recognition auto-captioned it as "cute". I don't know if mistranslation is a rare and minor annoyance or if it makes the transcripts unusable.

To downvoters: please let me know what I wrote that didn't add positive contribution to this discussion.

Oracle owns Java, so has a direct reason to be interested in compiler tech, and other parts of the software suite also would benefit from similar types of fuzzing (e.g. their query processing for the database).

But apart from the direct value, there's a huge value in keeping high paid staff motivated and sharpening their skills of course, on top of the good will it creates among potential hires.

These systems are the kind of thing people with no management experience build. And they don't get good results.

It is more important to coax the best performance possible from the team on the floor this week than to schedule the best of who's left next week. By more important, I mean it has a bigger impact on the business's bottom line and a bigger impact on the guest experience.
I think you're confusing authority servers, which control the content for domains, and query resolvers. This attack works because it only requires an attacker to control an authority server, any authority, on the whole Internet. They can just register a domain to do this with.
eBay really should allow you to filter out items with multiple price points. So many sellers abuse that system so heavily (e.g. the standard 99c memory card listings that have some crappy little microsd adapter included in the listings to drag the price range down).

Basically everything else that's bad about ebay I can deal with, but that's the one thing that sends me racing to other sites.
> Second, atomic weapons fired at ground level are missing the point.

True, a ground burst isn't the most efficient for direct damage. In exchange, it means lots of fallout, since it throws radioactive material in the air, spreading effect around a larger area, and making sure the area is contaminated for a long time. Since we aren't exactly prepared to keep large areas of citizens in shelters for days, that's bad.
I mean, if you look at the source it does use vue/vue-router.
It looks like I'm the only one in this thread who has the experience of being scammed, as a buyer, on eBay. Although admittedly, this happened on the Indian version of the platform (which is now owned by Indian e-commerce giant Flipkart).

I wrote about the irony of them promoting the sale of refurbished items when it was a refurbished Xbox that I purchased last year that turned out to be a dud, on Medium (https://medium.com/@chakrabortypritish/ebay-india-a-cautiona... - I had to incorporate a bit of sensationalism to try and fetch some views, which is why it's written the way it is, didn't work anyway). Turns out that the seller lied about the machine's warranty, and Microsoft support couldn't help me either. eBay support consistently told me that they couldn't do anything about this according to company policy. Never felt this helpless on an e-commerce platform, and I've never gone back on eBay.

And yes, their platform UI/UX is horrible, I concur. The only way to show that the Xbox was stuck in a boot-and-crash loop was to record a video, and they did not permit video uploads on their (laughable) grievance redressal platform.

Yes, and millions of young men in the US who are shorter than millions of young women. What’s your point? Young men are still disproportionately more likely to be in road traffic accidents.

Re testosterone, the keywords you should be searching for are “risk taking behaviour”.

I’m curious also what percentage of time you think the average military driver is being shot at is.
Spring boot microservices using liquibase as schema evolver, we are using helm hooks to run a job pre-deploy that leverages a spring boot profile which runs the evolutions. If it fails, return non-zero exit code and the deploy doesn't continue. The only pain point we've run into with this model is that the configmaps that the service depends on (we use the same docker image in both the deployment and evolution job) aren't created before the hook is called, so we need to duplicate part of the config with -D startup params.
This is a great idea.

I wouldn't be surprised if Unity builds this feature into a future version of Unity.

It's also pretty annoying if your are stuck in the middle of the desert because you opted not to use wheel 4.0. In the end it's all about statistics. What is more likely to happen? A wheel 4.0 fail, or getting stuck with wheel 1.0 (where 4.0 would have helped)... The first likelyness is constantly decreasing with wheel 4.1, 4.2, 4.9 etc whereas the first one stays constant. At least at some point in time wheel 4.0 should be preferred.

> Likewise, it might not be such a bad idea to create a common graphics API, which will use Direct3D 11/Vulkan on Windows, Metal on macOS and Vulkan on Linux

So, a higher-level graphics API. Like WebGL?

I'm not just being facetious - if we're ruling out a low-level API like Vulkan, aren't we back to square one?

What's wrong with WebGL that could be fixed with an API like you describe?

Idk, I majored in CS and I don't use the term efficient or quick to imply relative asymptotic time complexity.

Consider for example a randomized quicksort (O(n^2) worst case) is often faster than say mergesort (O(nlog(n)) worst case)) for small lists due to reduced overhead. I know these are both polynomial, but relatively speaking, randomized quicksort can be more efficient & quick.

In the real world we can make certain assumptions about our problem domain, where the most 'efficient' solution for your business problem may not have the smallest asymptotic time complexity.

Maybe it's fair to assume everyone reading this article knows what the auther means & i'm just being that guy, but I still don't like ambiguity lol

This kinda seems like a flawed argument.

Claim 1: Google will shut down video aggregation and hosting sites

Counterclaim 1: But what about x, y and z that exist parallel to Youtube?

Claim 2: Those are allowed to exist by Google.

I dont disagree with your overarching point, it just seem like your arguing it in a flawed manner without any real evidence of your claim occurring or explaining why there are other sites that provide similar functionality without being affected by Google?

>We (developers) should be leading by example and creating services that don't rely on permission from large corporations to operate.

Great so that is what the original poster is doing? And your already claiming that Google is going to shut this down. Seems kinda alarmist.

Not really, but you should really know how the calibrations work and understand when they might be off. It takes time to learn and understanding the basic math behind doesn't hurt.

Always calibrate when you are not sure.

G6 promises a no-calibration mode, but has a hard stop for sensors after 10 days. With G5 and calibrations you can double or triple the sensor lifetime (with xDrip).

Finland has a central population index, and makes various statistics available online. For example you can carry out a name search to see how many people are called "Steve".

That was the first official recognition that he was "real", so I had a before/after screenshot which was cute to see.

Get off hacker news then! Haha. No, I agree entirely. People not talking to each other is ultimately the problem. My wife was depressed because she had nobody but me to talk to. She went to get help but that didn’t do much so we moved back to her hometown and live next to her parents. Now she sees and talks to her mom every day and I have not seen any evidence of depression. Myself, I have on and off moments where I feel like total shit. It doesn’t help that I have 0 friends and never go out anywhere.

If we are talking about obtaining DV certificates, then why do you bring up the connection between a browser and Google DNS?

The good thing about Google doing DNSSEC validation that on average zones can either be unsigned or need to have valid signatures.

By signing your own domains with DNSSEC and assuming CAs do DNSSEC validation you can protect your own domains from malicious DV certificates.

That's a nice feature. If you don't like DNSSEC, nobody is forcing you to sign your zones. I can still sign my zones even if you don't sign yours.

The next step would be for CAs to honour DANE records.

I keep waiting for the Silicon Valley/New York/Boston/Seattle/etc. tech hotspot bubble to pop, and companies look to areas of the country with low cost of living, short commutes to work, etc.

I will probably have a long wait! The problem as I see it is that companies need to be run with a ‘remote first’ culture, where people in outlying offices are not second class citizens.

I recently was in NYC working for a few days, and while the environment is a lot of fun, many people who work there have very long commutes. When I worked as a contractor at Google in Mountain View, I came into the office at 6am to beat the traffic. The cost of living in tech centers is awful compared to non-east/west coast areas.

It seems like there is not much middle ground: either have everyone in one or a few urban areas or have a distributed culture. Currently the business model of concentrating workers in high cost areas is winning over distributed teams.

Intel makes ten to hundreds of dollars for each x86 processor they sell. They would make pennies to dollars manufacturing chips for other companies. If Intel made their own mobile chips they would have to similarly dramatically reduce their enormous margins.

In any discussion about Intel this is the point that really reigns supreme -- Intel was in the enviable state where their primary concern was always putting their own profits at risk. In the long term of course they should to move to new, growing markets (e.g. mobile), but from a closer term perspective they knew that such products, if not seriously crippled, would start chipping into their higher-end processors.

Hence why their mobile processor offerings were built on laughably dated processes, using very obsolete designs. If Intel made them better they knew that someone would figure out a way to drop 32 of them on a motherboard with a shared memory controller, etc.

How you can build your own free, serverless comment box
Somehow eBay's core business seems to be trying to force me to use something not-eBay.

The horrendous UI, unresponsive servers, bids being lost like every other auction, the easiest features like watchlist being outright broken 50 % of the time, watching items randomly not working, random 500/"oops" errors, broken search, tons and tons of ads (THIS IS A PAID SITE FFS) and so on make me think that they don't want to make money.

UX wise; I don't think it's possible to do worse than "Your bid of X has been submitted" followed by "This auction has ended. Sold for X-1.". Don't expect users to come back soon if you keep doing this to them!
That is thoughtful and so true, experienced that myself. More people need to be made aware of that!
Fascinating, thank you. I get completely different terms and conditions when I click on the same link - it includes the text you posted under section 4 D instead, but then adds a clause E specifically allowing use of the Embeddable Player on sites with ads:

It's not always the easiest site to use if you want to make complex queries, but I've only had three packages out of a couple of hundred purchases not arrive - one the seller resent, the other two I flagged as not having arrived and got my money back pretty quickly - the site keeps your payment in it's own escrow service, only releasing it to the seller when you confirm receipt.
