That's indeed an issue. I believe science is not immune to information overload (just like mainstream with internet). This creates spots / schools of thoughts, and only people working or studying the field can have an opinion whether a book or paper is worth its weight.

I guess it's a bit like music, unless you have genius talent out of the box, you will only be able to parse things clearly after 5-10 years of swimming in the pool. Unless we have something to connect the dots for us, for instance something that can cross correlated data from biological pathways, chemistry, physics, maths, so you know what is solid or not.

Also nutrition is too tied to economics and politics, that doesn't help.

This doesn't sound like a use-case for a Web site to me.

How about sending yourself emails, categorised into their own maildir or IMAP folder, or even a brand new account? That would inherit security from your email setup (which is monotonically more secure than systems which delegate password resetting to your email account).

You can read and write them online or offline using a variety of readers and editors, including some self-hosted browser-based clients (e.g. RoundCube, etc.).

You also get a bunch of tooling for free, e.g. for backups (offlineimap, isync, etc.), indexing/searching (e.g. mu), etc.
Buliding a Discord Chatbot with Node.js and Repl.it
I confess I'm quite tired of having to litter every article that might be about cryptography with the standard warnings. I might as well warn readers not to use this knowledge at all, because they shouldn't implement their own crypto to begin with (even though I did).

This is an advanced topic. If the reader is in a position to use such knowledge, I felt I could safely assume they would know when it is safe not to be constant time. (For instance, signature verification doesn't process secrets, and can be variable time.)

> also, no mention of masking techniques!

Out of scope. Those are hidden behind magical constant time routines.

"bigger house and yard naturally translates to a higher quality of life"

I used to live in the centre of a city in a flat and I could walk to work, my wife could walk to work and our son could walk to school.

We now live in a house with a nice garden in a rural area where we pretty much have to drive or use the train most days.

I'm not sure you can simply map properties from size to "quality of life" - I'd say my quality of life is about the same - just different.

> A nonlinear ϕ-q curve will always have a positive, albeit variable slope. However, the ratio of ϕ to q still has the units of ohm, without a phase shift, making this a nonlinear resistor.

I think this is false. A nonlinear ϕ-q curve will yield a resistance which depends on time in a manner that can't be described by a single nonlinear v-i curve.
Because the phone camera does post-processing. That was the point of their ad pitch.
Not true. There is (or at least until now, has never been) a reason for video or 3D professionals in the "Arts" to use anything but GTX cards. 3D CAD and AI professionals on the other hand will profit from the Quadro cards.
The main difference between Quadro and GTX were amount of memory, clock speed, longevity and drivers.
GTX are faster clocked but relatively less reliable.
GTX are game optimized, Quadro drivers are CAD optimized (extremely so)
GTX are much cheaper, but may have a shorter lifetime (but who runs a render farm on 10 year old cards...)
GTX offer very fast single precision calculations, Quadro single and double. Almost all 3D rendering is done single precision.
I disagree with their claim that current is the time derivative of charge.

This metric has many downsides that I'm sure others will be happy to point out, but here is an upside compared to e.g. the traditional definition: The countries wealth cannot be used for military while parts of your population starve (or have less than 12k per year, to quote the formal definition).

A live slave is worth more than a dead one. These were business men. There is no reason to think that they would be happy to sail all across the ocean only to then throw their cargo overboard before collecting payment.

There is no reason to think these slave traders were acting against their own self-interest. Unless you have evidence to the contrary, I assume they simply worked out that providing better accommodations would cost more than the potential return in live slaves.
Motion Capture/3D Character Animation Products – Survey
Hi everyone,

I am conducting a survey as part of my research paper that focuses on the impact of technology trends on consumer purchase behavior for motion capture/3d character animation products as part of my digital marketing course.

The survey takes 2-3 minutes to complete and comprises of 10 questions.

The survey link is: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/DTQCKJJ.

Your responses to the survey are completely anonymous and will only be used for the purpose of this paper.

Thank you very much! :D

India’s checklist for WhatsApp: Follow Indian laws, setup Indian entity
If you are seeking analogy he had a trolley problem where 5 people are his family and on the other track there is a guy who commited serious crime, maybe killing, some believe it was even a murder. Everyone around agrees he should make every effort possible to throw the switch while he himself is led to believe that he's throwing training switch and even after throwing real switch the bad guy will rather be maimed not killed.

Still, he throws the switch, it was the real switch, guy is killed and eventually it turns out his offence was an accident and if left alone the trolley wouldn't kill 5 people.

Ender is guilty of killng a guy even though what he did was perfectly reasonable considering circumstances.

Very much this. Tumblr has features which seem designed to actively encourage harassment. The quote-tweet feature which that post about Mastodon the other day complained about? As this points out, Tumblr's had its own version of that since the very start, and unlike on Twitter deleting your post does nothing about the quoted copy. It also allows anonymous asks by default, which are widely abused to harass and threaten. It also has an utterly toxic culture built around all this which the press seem to downplay for political reasons, just like they downplayed the Russian influence op which reached pretty much all of Tumblr whilst writing endless articles about Facebook and Twitter.
I wish there was more information about the acceleration structures and how they're generated.

When I worked on hardware raytracing, my conclusion was that the actual tracing was not the difficult part. That can be very well optimized, requires very little silicon to do and is only really limited by memory bandwidth.

The difficult part for real-time raytracing of animated scenes is generating efficient acceleration structures fast enough.

It makes sense that the API for this is opaque, but it would still be nice to know what goes on behind the scenes.

That's claim that cannot be verified.

"approved by the FDA"

Is that a requirement? Haven't you heard that FDA used to and still approves medications that were responsible for the death of thousands, if not more people? No, it's not a requirement, nor it should be. FDA serves its own interest and not yours [or the people's], because it can. Nothing happened to the FDA after they approved lethal medications, and nothing prevents them from doing just that again, or banning actually useful plants, such as: hemp, and kratom. They enjoy it, but do you?

People in Norway enjoy a higher standard of living than most Americans. Can Norway become a military superpower? have an ambitious space program? probably not.

The US is #1 in military spending. The US is also #1 in healthcare spending by a large margin, but the additional spending does not translate into better health benefits. Comparing countries through spending can be very misleading.

India's space agency (ISRO) sent a mission to Mars for $73 million USDs (substantially cheaper than an equivalent NASA mission) while a large portion of their population live in precarious conditions.

I agree Eco should be mentioned, my point was it was already mentioned in three another comments in this discussion (outside this thread) at the time I wrote the OP.

In any case, I think a game with first-person focus (like Minecraft or Eco) and a game with civilization focus (like Civilization or Sim City or Transport Tycoon or even Factorio to an extent) are very very different style. They might touch same topics, but the challenges are different.

If anything is similar to what I propose, it would be Block'n'Hood (which also has global warming, I believe). But again, the scale is different. What I would like to see is something that would really put, for example, Vaclav Smil's books into a game.
