SQL Server has some interesting features. It has a much better alternative to pgadmin. You can write stored procs in C#. I would use postgres for most tasks but there are things unique to SQL Server.
The issue is that an aerospike engine is a spike engine that has been truncated, with the truncated portion replaced with an aerodynamic "spike," which also eliminates base drag.
This is how Lisp developers have worked for decades. It's been used for games before, too, e.g., https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Game_Oriented_Assembly_Lisp

A small tweak to this approach would be to precompute and cache the entire chunk-graph distance matrix, so the chunk-distance between any two chunks can be computed by a lookup, instead of searching. Use a bit of memory and make the time to generate the world a bit slower, but could be viable if the chunk-graph pathfinding calls are still slowing things down a bit at runtime.

This might make sense if a bunch of assumptions hold: the chunk-graph does not change during gameplay, map sizes aren't much bigger than the one shared in the post so the number of vertices in the chunk graph is pretty small, land units share the same costs for traversing terrain (i.e. same chunk graph with same edge cost shared by all units).

Rough back of the envelope: number of vertices, V = 20 chunks high * 20 chunks wide = 400. Chunk graph is sparse, each chunk connected to 8 neighbours by undirected edges, so number edges, E = (1/2) * 8 * V .

Memory required to store chunk-graph distance matrix: V^2 * sizeof(distance) = 400^2 * sizeof(float) = 640,000 bytes. Could use +inf for disconnected chunks due to islands.

Time to precompute full chunk-graph distance matrix by repeatedly dijkstra-ing from each chunk to all chunks in the chunk graph: V * T(dijkstra(E, V)) = V * O(E + V log V) = O(V E + V^2 log(V)) = O(V^2 + V^2 log(V)) = O(V^2 log(V)) , which won't scale due to the quadratic-ish V^2 log(V) term, but probably fine if V <= 400 .

It’s mostly a matter of practice. I think that many people’s experience of functional programming is a (potentially poorly-taught) university course, during which there is not really enough time to really become comfortable with functional programming. Maybe it’s true that the learning curve is a bit (a lot?) steeper, though. But once you are comfortable with it, it’s not significantly more difficult than writing code in Java or Python. I also think that it’s worth learning even just for the sake of becoming a better programmer. It teaches you to think in a different way, which also translates to programming in imperative languages.
This is such a good interview. Lots of engineer philosophy dropped here. Love his approach on thinking things are always wrong and to constantly question interfaces and standards.

No, I this pretty clearly means it is treasonable to participate in war being waged againat the United States (or to provide aid and comfort to those doing so) whether or not Congress has declared war.

It is also treasonable to provide aid and comfort to those against whom Congress has declared war.

Congressional declaration of war is sufficient, but not necessary, to make an entity an enemy of the United States.

To add to this, looking at figure 4, why is their "average" heartbeat so messed up? That's not what a normal average heartbeat looks like. P is too flat, Q is too big, R is blunted, and there's an extra wave between S and T that's not supposed to be there at all. If their "healthy patient" ECGs were bad enough to produce this mess on average, it's no surprise their AI had no trouble telling the data sets apart.

(For comparison, the "CHF beat" looks a lot more like a healthy heartbeat.)

Doesn't this just move the intensive search work to the precompute that calculates distances?
> He drew on the moral resources of the American civil religion to activate our shared identity and values: “When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note.” And: “I still have a dream.

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.’”

> Driving school 2017 is a great place to work for and it is a great place to

I'm genuinely curious what it is you're trying to say. So it sounds like Driving School might be a company, but a quick Google search didn't turn anything up. And then what does 2017 have to do with anything? Or maybe you're trying to say that you're driving as a way of explaining you're having trouble writing right now, and that some school from 2017 is a great place to work? That doesn't really make sense either.
>X declares war on Y. Twitter takes it down so Y never sees it. Are they at war?

Obviously, yes, for two reasons:

1) X isn't going to wait for confirmation that Y sees a tweet before actually going to war and

2) Y isn't going to depend entirely on Twitter to know what X is doing.

> Avoid sitting still. If you have had surgery or have been on bed rest for other reasons, try to get moving as soon as possible. If you're sitting for a while, don't cross your legs, which can hamper blood flow. If you're traveling a long distance by car, stop every hour or so and walk around.

If you're on a plane, stand or walk occasionally. If you can't do that, exercise your lower legs. Try raising and lowering your heels while keeping your toes on the floor, then raising your toes with your heels are on the floor.
you got it. not feasible to precompute the fine detail full graph, since it has far too many vertices, arguably feasible for the chunk-graph, since it is small.

there'd still be search cost at runtime doing the fine-detail searches since the distance heuristic defined by the chunk-graph is an approximation and misleads the fine-detail search some of the time.

need to profile & run experiments to see if this was anything like a win.

in practice it might be better to increase the accuracy of the chunk-graph heuristic by making it consider more factors, which would make it harder to precompute and cache everything, but might further reduce the number of nodes the fine-detail search needs to expand

edit: another variation of this would be to just start with an empty cache for chunk-graph distance matrix and fill it incrementally at runtime the time whenever you run a chunk-graph distance query as part of the heuristic. Then there isn't any up front time to precompute anything. Might be better if (source_chunk, dest_chunk) pathfinding queries at runtime aren't uniformly distributed but somewhat correlated, which is plausible, since some chunks are likely to be far more interesting locations to travel from/to than others.

One of the key considerations nowadays, though, is that games are far less disposable than they were in, say, the 90's/00's; there's an expectation that players will be getting bugfixes and features and even expansions/DLC for a long while after the original release date. That confounds even further with the recent trend of "Early Access" and similar schemes for player-driven alpha/beta testing.
Wait until a derogatory word being used effects you directly. It's really easy to just not use words flippantly that you know some people have an issue with. You are clearly aware of how it can be offensive and for a lot of people your definition is still just a callback to people being unkind about mental illness. History matters too and if you choose to ignore that and use it anyway you're just being unnecessarily inconsiderate.

I find it interesting that so many people are having defensive reactions to this, trying to explain why they think this 'doesn't count', isn't important or significant in some way, etc. Perhaps this is rooted in some fear of obsolescence? I'm not sure.

Rather than thinking "this machine can't do it as good as me", why not think of ways you could use the machine to enhance your own abilities? I think it would be really interesting to have a system at my disposal that can "read" a book and generate book reports/digests. This could allow me to spend less time reading speculatively and focus more of my (finite) reading time on books I am already reasonably confident contain what I'm after.

(Edit: maybe it's because the headline frames it as a competition, setting people to think of themselves competing with the machine, rather than collaborating with it.)
I first read about the Epic of Gilgamesh at the start of a history textbook, where it was told as the ultimate origin myth of our civilization, raging against the beast of nature itself to conquer it. Though, that seems less accurate from reading this account and the one on wikipedia.

But, Daniel Quinn’s reading of the Fall of Man in Genesis[1] is an antithetical account of the same story. Man did not seek to overcome nature, rather Man was banished from the garden (nature) by his own temptation to seek the knowledge to take care of himself—thus becoming captured and tortured by this original sin, accumulating into agrarian-fueled violence and expansion. All now rationalized[2] by our proclaimed knowledge of Good and Evil.

My favorite part of this interpretation is that this story was not told by our ancestors, because if it was, they would’ve sanctified this knowledge-seeking as the Ascent of Man, not the Fall. So it’s hypothesized that the story was told by the herders and hunter-gatherers trying to formulate a story to explain the violent and toilsome lifestyle of the agrarians.

Neat that there is also a mythic tree that Gilgamesh finds in the cave after hours of darkness. That he had returned to the garden somehow, and that he either wanted nothing to do with it or could find no answers there for him anymore.

> The President can effectively levy war in the 21st century without Congress, but such "wars" do not create the conditions required for treason

They arguably do, if either the war is levied under the authority of a Congressional aujorization, conditional or others, including the War Power Act, which effectively includes an open-ended conditional declaration of war, or the other side fights back, in which case it is levying war against the United States making it an enemy whether or not war is declared.

In practice, the former condition will almost invariably be adhered to though every President has denied it's Constitutional necessity (the NATO-Serbia war under Clinton being a notable exception), and the latter is even more certain.

Is Cancer Solvable?
To review: Aperocky said that this is a full coverup. spaceandshit asked for sources (evidence) to demonstrate that this is a coverup. You said that the bodies are evidence. I said that they're evidence of crashes, but not evidence of a coverup. You said that the fact that "they" didn't speak out until much too late is evidence of a coverup.

Once again, I say, that isn't evidence of a coverup. So far the only "evidence" of a coverup is your claim, and Aperocky's claim. Stop just making claims. What is your evidence?

(Why isn't "they didn't speak out until too late" evidence of a coverup? "Some people had doubts and expressed it in an email that's now all over the press" is not a coverup. Did they have hard data? Can you prove it? Did they deliberately try to keep that data from reaching the FAA, the press, and the public? Can you prove it?)

[Edit: And no, "it was misbehaving in sim when I flew it" isn't data, either. It's anecdote. Was the sim correct? Did they know the sim was correct?]

NIST https://physics.nist.gov/PhysRefData/ASD/lines_form.html

Used a lot for calibration to match arc spectra to catalogue emission lines.

Harder in general because these "toy" spectrometers have poor resolution so a lot of lines get blended or broadened. You can also look at spectra on Public Labs' online database to compare to.

A lot of stuff you're likely to look at is well characterised eg hydrogen lines in a Solar spectrum, or emission lines from a lamp containing mercury.
In terms of security vs convenience though, I'm not going to enter a decent passphrase into my phone many times per day. A short passcode can trivially be shoulder-surfed, so FaceID is still better security than what I otherwise would be using, even if it's not perfect. The convenience also lets me have more apps individually locked, meaning I can hand an unlocked device to someone knowing they still have somewhat limited access.

I think rather it's a revenue issue, until relatively recently there was no way to profit from updated games, so you're better off moving on to the sequel, or next year's edition of the game. Also a lot of the video game development culture likely stems from console releases, which again until "recently" could not be updated (only new versions of disks/carts for future customers) so it was not feasible to plan for future maintenance, beyond what was necessary for derived codebases.

He was the ugliest man of all those that came before Troy—bandy-legged, lame of one foot, with his two shoulders rounded and hunched over his chest. His head ran up to a point, but there was little hair on the top of it. Achilles and Odysseus hated him worst of all, for it was with them that he was most wont to wrangle; now, however, with a shrill squeaky voice he began heaping his abuse on Agamemnon. The Achaeans were angry and disgusted, yet none the less he kept on bawling at the son of Atreus.
