The way you phrased it — “outright fasting” — makes it seem as if eating uncooked food is a form of fasting. To be clear: it isnt. Decreasing the amount of cooked food you eat provides NONE of the health benefits that fasting provides. Eating less cooked food is not a form of fasting, and your phrasing is hilariously laughable.
Motion smoothing is designed to reduce motion blur. It doesn't always work, because it's just heuristic processing that attempts to estimate the missing information, but when the motion is easily predictable (pans are an obvious case), and the exposure time (shutter angle) is low, it can do an excellent job of interpolating the missing frames. This eliminates the sample-and-hold blur[0] that would otherwise appear. It's motion sharpening, not motion blur.

Add an option in adblocking software that automatically redirects to the real article. I imagine there’s a fairly big overlap between users of adblocking software and users that dislike amp.
To me it looks as if AMP is on the edge of being legal in terms of antitrust law. Even if Google doesn't admit to it, I bet they prefer AMPed sites in the ranking. The AMP icon might be another thing that makes it difficult with regard to legal considerations. This might be one of its major weaknesses.

I was on a BBS in Sacramento, CA and we had the opposite - it was a MajorBBS system and teleconference was almost always full. People could say "CIT" (Coffee In Ten) and we'd all drop off and meet up at a Java City location in midtown. The odd thing about this BBS was that it was a very diverse group, and not just a warez scene. It was actually a local social scene, and weathered the days of AOL. The web slowly killed it off, though.
There's a fair amount of interest in the US Congress to entertain antitrust conversation around Google, Facebook, etc.

I can't find any sources about it any more but I vaguely remember reading about it. I'm sorry. As I can't find it, it certainly wasn't covered by big press. I'll remove that part of the comment to be on the safe side. It's not what my comment was supposed to be mainly about anyway. The main part of my comment was more to point out that this is a pattern: the USA is supplier of a major amount of technology that lends itself very well to mass surveillance and the western world uses it. The US got the unique chance to make the technology spy onto the customer nations.
GS is spending the money on this project to reduce high frequency traders ability to capture some of the value of their trades on behalf of clients. Why do you think the price moves away from them? It isn't random. It has everything to do with hft, which has everything to do with market structure.

I'm highly familiar with the history, no one is advocating for a return to open outcry.

Your pension is almost certainly a GS client and footing the bill for this project through execution costs. A periodic auction model would make latency much less of a problem and society's time and energy could be put into solving real problems.

The difference is that Norway and the US are liberal democracies and allies. China, quite the opposite.

In fact, Norway (and all of Europe) has outsourced much of its collective defense to the United States, so if Norway and the Europeans are comfortable with the entire US military apparatus protecting them, it is quite surprising that Norway would have a problem with something as comparatively insignificant as flight data being sent back to Lockheed.

In fact, given the protective relationship the US has with Europe, wouldn't Norway want to provide as much data as possible to help improve Lockheed's technology and hence the West's future defensive capabilities?

Can you give me a high level overview of what your motivation is for destroying AMP? I'm not trying to troll. I really would like to know.
Deepmind: Classic Games (2018)
No-one has mentioned the to me most obvious answer: if your employer wants to/is using AMP, heavily lobby against it. Convince other developers. Get your manager on your side. Write the CEO.

Do so with good arguments why it's a bad move, not with "omg Google is evil".

Do the same thing as a user: if you are using a site that has AMP deployed, write them. Them them why it's bad for them and for their users, and how this pushes you to other alternatives.
FAA wields enormous (usually dictatorial) powers in things that refer to safe flight and will easily trump Pentagon there. It would not lift a finger on privacy, but will likely enforce that all such balloons carry transponders. This is not a consolation here, but just a note that in its fiefdom FAA will win.
I threw this down the tubes, but put this here as well:

What I'd like to see is an HTMLx that addresses the core needs of the Web-using entities, and an ecosystem of Web extensions that expand on the capabilities of it. So, something like what smartphones with their apps and markets are doing. Basic call and message capabilities, but then there's TrueCaller and WhatsApp and the like.

Bear with me. Business, gaming, video and publishing would be the core interests. So this HTMLx would get forms and credit card processing and the like, accelerated sound and input and graphics and networking, two way streaming and en/decoding, and lastly, a responsive grid and symbolic styling.
Everything else, all of it – client side tracking, syndication, advertisement, compulsory client-side computation of various forms like fonts and GPU or native kernels, even JS code and client storage and cookies – I think should be available through a market. If your website is using something like that, let it suggest an "app" module to the user to install and enable on this domain.

"Please support our project by enabling advertising on this domain [OK] [Later] [Never]"
"For Youtube Movies please install DRM/x264 package from the market [OK] [Later] [Never]"
"You will need to enable storage, code, and gaming modules to use Itch [OK] [Later] [Never]"

Because browser extensions suck. Browsers suck. Mobile browsers suck. The experience of the Web sucks, for anyone that knows better. Shopping, gaming, streaming, syndication and publishing all suck big time.
The reason why we have AMP in the first place is that normal news websites are unusable. The extra caching/preloading it enables is a bonus, but the main benefit comes from AMP websites not being as shitty as regular sits.

It's pretty easy to make usable web sites with regular HTML, and it's almost certainly possible to make just as shitty AMP sites. However, AMP solved the political/bureaucratic problem by providing a strong carrot to make a non-shitty version of the web site, and made it easier to make a non-shitty one than a shitty one.

The publishers already have to spend time remaking their web site, and the goal they get provided with is "keep it simple and lightweight", and doing shitty things is made hard/expensive. So they grumble and do it, getting it mostly right. (Although they seem to have realized the "potential" and started shittifying the AMP pages too).

They could have a normal experience that is very similar. Yet, they still serve the non-AMP, ad- and tracker-laden main page that takes 20x as long to load, jumps around while doing so, and tries to blast you with an autoplaying video that remains stuck to your screen while you scroll.

I don't get the hate for AMP - it somehow succeeded in the impossible quest to get publishers to make less shitty web sites, and it does improve user experience by preloading the pages.

It's just like with the "acceptable ads" program - some web sites participating in it serve significantly less shitty ads to people who only allow "acceptable ads", while serving a worse version _of the same ad_ to everyone else.

So maybe, to answer your question: Build a standard (or extend the AMP standard) that works just like this, but is enforced by the browser. Much harder to do and unlikely to get enough momentum/incentive to actually succeed, though.

> most important of all time

More realistically: The most important time yet.

And this is kind of reasonable, since progress mostly seems to accelerate.

People intuitively discount the future, since it's hard to imagine what will come. But I haven't seen many people actively discount the future.
In many cases the bulk of the VFX budget is artist wages, not CPU time. If you already have the motion paths set up then it doesn't take much more human effort to render more intermediate frames. You might even be able to reduce the cost per frame by exploiting the smaller differences between frames, e.g. with temporal noise reduction.

Hand drawn or hand posed animation is the rare case where increased frame-rate really would take more human effort, but it's often already produced at extra-low framerate (e.g. 12fps or 8fps), with frames duplicated for playback. The same duplication can happen with higher playback framerates. Modern video codecs handle duplicated frames well.
Medieval Europe is several hundred years, a load of different societies at any given time, social strata within these societies. And even then, are sources reliable? If a lot of writers in a time period write that people don't bath enough, is that a sign that everyone is concerned about hygiene, or a sign that people aren't concerned about hygiene?
No, this sounds like a great example of shared decision making.
Happened to me too in my teens! New England telephone (later Nynex, later Verizon) had the most arcane pricing scheme in Massachusetts. Calling a BBS in the town next to mine in the same area code was a long distance call, etc. Anyways, I can still remember the panic/shock I felt as a 12 year old getting a $500 phone bill. I laugh it now because I was running an autodialer to hack long distance calling cards at the time. Karma :)

AMP pages are hosted on a google.com uri. Get some kind of controversial content up on an AMP page, and start a grassroots "OMG, Google is hosting this bad content via AMP" campaign going with some tech-ignorant group. Maybe works better if AMP is fronting some other Google controlled user-content domain.
I've always been curious if stereoblind people are typically better at drawing than people with normal stereo vision. I'm stereoblind, and I always seemed to be better than most of my peers at drawing, and my hypothesis is that since there are no stereo cues from a flat piece of paper (or rather, what stereo cues there are are "wrong" if you're attempting to draw a 3D scene), the stereoblind person is not going to be bothered by (nor attempt to (incorrectly) render) discrepancies in stereo cues between what they're drawing and what they're seeing.
F-35 source code is only available to a limited subset of trusted allies. Mainly the UK, but it appears that a few other countries such as Israel have at least partial source code and the ability to build custom branches.

I don't think the point of his article is that this is a "problem" to be solved. And personally, I don't think these people owe you anything. Twitter etc. are all open platforms, there's nothing preventing your stuff from being seen by others.
I think you are spot on and I am pretty sure Pentagon bureaucrats take PC very seriously. That is why I suspect it is either a test for eventual use overseas (not operational deployment), or DHS is ready to take over
60 isn't an integer multiple of 24, so it would result in uneven frame timing. It would look worse than playing 24fps with every frame shown for the same time, which modern TVs can do.

Because you're not going to use weapons against the nation that you bought them from.
First of all, Norway shares their border and coastline with Russia, who would like nothing more than to gain more control over Norway’s fisheries and oil fields, although they’re certainly more friendly now than they were during Soviet times. Second of all, the EU also wants a cut of Norway’s fisheries and oil, although on far better terms. As such, the USA has always treated Norway fairly and favourably in order to gain access to our oil fields. Thus it’s only natural that the favour is returned.

On top of that, Norway has for at least a hundred years had very close ties to the USA due to emigration. Compare that to the rather lukewarm political help Norway got from Sweden during WWII (though their hands were obviously tied) and the strategically insignificant position they’re in to help in future conflicts, given that they are still outside the NATO—where Norway is of course heavily entrenched with their former P.M. Jens Stoltenberg as the current General Secretary. Thus it was an easy call to ditch Sweden’s JAS Gripen in favour of the F35, despite some issues with data transmissions.

While the JAS Gripen perhaps has similar capabilities to that of the F16—which is in fact a far superiour defensive dogfighter compared to the F35—the F35 is a better ground attack plane, and it has stealth.
Isn't MPEG or any other encoding doing similar things?
I feel obliged to jump in and defend Scott here - I just don't think what you are saying is a fair summary of his behaviour.

For sure, I see him doing what you say, but I also see him regularly retweeting and responding to comments and questions from accounts with few followers, and particularly so from people from minorities within the developer community.

There are plenty of examples of people I can think of who behave in exactly the way you suggest, mainly spinning the flywheel of boosting the online presence of already famous people and not engaging much with outsiders, but Scott not only isn't one of them but perhaps one of the best examples I can think of of actively doing the opposite of that.
Whoa, a gettid wrapper? What changed the maintainers' minds on making that available?
The sudden downfall in the chart looked so strange, I thought they must have conflated the city of Rome with the Roman Empire. But no, people actually left the city proper in droves, as resources became unavailable and the city fell into overall disrepair:

"The decline of the city's population was caused by the loss of grain shipments from North Africa, from 440 onward, and the unwillingness of the senatorial class to maintain donations to support a population that was too large for the resources available. Even so, strenuous efforts were made to maintain the monumental centre, the palatine, and the largest baths, which continued to function until the Gothic siege of 537. The large baths of Constantine on the Quirinale were even repaired in 443; and the extent of the damage exaggerated and dramatized (according to "Rome, An Urban History from Antiquity to the Present", Rabun Taylor, Katherine W. Rinne and Spiro Kostof, 2016 pp. 160–179). However, the city gave an appearance overall of shabbiness and decay because of the large abandoned areas due to population decline. Population declined to 500,000 by 452 and 100,000 by 500 AD (perhaps larger, though no certain figure can be known). After the Gothic siege of 537, population dropped to 30,000, but had risen to 90,000 by the papacy of Gregory the Great."

Fwiw, degrees were rarer in the software candidate pool 25 years ago, and become increasingly irrelevant as your career progresses. Once you hit about 5 years of experience, the amount of attention anyone pays to it nosedives.

These days, getting those first five years is harder, though. Because of a combination of a glut of juniors on the market plus a culture where it’s increasingly common for employees to stay only a year or so, which makes it less worthwhile for a company to invest in training juniors.

> The difference is that Norway and the US are liberal democracies and allies

And yet Norway wants to retain control over that data. Are you saying this should be overridden? Outsourcing doesn't imply handing over everything to the party providing the service. If India starts taking sensitive Boeing data is it ok because Boeing outsourced the coding of critical components there?

> Europeans are comfortable with the entire US military apparatus protecting them

Yes. But it's not kindness, it's business and it doesn't come for free. They'll keep doing it to keep said Europeans from finding other allies. So they can have a military presence close to their enemy. So they have a witness when WMD or dictators need a democracy treatment.

> wouldn't Norway want to

Obviously not.
Nobody’s telling anyone to do anything. The problem people are talking about is that this setting looks like absolute garbage and it’s inexplicably turned on by default on almost all TVs these days. The only people who think otherwise are people who just literally do not care at all about picture quality and probably also do stuff like stretching the picture to get rid of letterboxing. These are not the people that default settings should be based on.

A year or two ago, the TV my roommates and I had would give weird artefacts while watching sports. I wasn't sure if it was the TV or the broadcast but the effects were things like people's eyes would move relative to their head or the logo on the shirt would move relative to the shirt. They'd sort of bounce up and down. Is this motion smoothing?

My guess at the time was it was an image stabilization algorithm put on by the studio since sports broadcasts involve long-range videography. Presumably the logo or eyeballs were getting "stabilized" in place while the rest of the person wasn't, making them appear to jiggle up and up down compared to the person's movement. It was eerie. But these were major sports streams, like world series baseball, and I'd be surprised if they messed it up that badly.

The best time to upgrade would be to get a previous generation CPU and mainboard when ddr5 comes out. Prices for the 1 year old stuff will drop hard because no one wants ddr4 ram anymore, including mainboards and CPUS. You could probably easily afford 32GB of RAM or more that way.
Personal anecdote: I was born with astigmatism, hypermetropia with over 3 diopters difference between eyes, a slight esotropia, which was partially corrected by training, and have developed amblyopia as the result of all that.

Naturally, I didn't even know about stereo vision, everything was flat and that didn't bother me.

But when I was about 20 years old, my friend showed me Virtual Boy. After looking into the headset I immediately sensed the depth and was blown away with it.

Even after I took off the headset, depth perception didn't go away ever since. It only became much stronger when I started wearing contact lenses.

Sorry for possible grammar mistakes, I haven't yet experienced anything like Virtual Boy but for English, which is not my first language.

Well, my main point is I think it is somewhat absurd to blame GitHub for this. Sure, they can scan for SSN numbers, etc. but how many hackers are going to post stolen information to their Github account? A second matter though is there might be a business model around a service that scans for sensitive information or proprietary code on Github, Bitbucket, etc. My guess is though it is much easier to detect a breach upon data exfiltration versus scanning the web.
