VR headsets do this. They are one of the most common applications due to how important tracking motion is, and also because they refresh at a higher rate by design - for content at lower refresh rates (60hz for a game) the flicker is very noticeable. If you've used an Oculus Go, some games run at only 60hz and the backlight flicker becomes quite noticeable.

Because compatibility. All the existing text programs assume the physical tele-typewriter emulator. There have been many attempts to modernize the essential parts of the text console experience and do away with the inessential parts, but they always fail to catch on because people expect to be able to run programs like 'top' and 'ls -la' and 'pstree', which expect to format their output on a handy fixed width character grid. And you can't easily patch mouse selection into the existing system because there is too much seperation between the terminal and the content - the terminal is not aware of the intended text formatting, and the program is not aware of where you clicked. Fixing this would also require patching the world.

If you want to live in the future, you can't use programs written in the past. There are many fine GUI text editors: leafpad is your basic bare-bones notepad-alike, and for my money Kate is the best 'notepad++' mega-text-editor that's still light enough to start instantly.

Cutting and pasting this comment from the thread:

As someone once falsely accused of a crime and facing 12 years in prison. I went to trial and I have some advice for people.

1. You gotta start acting and thinking like you're guilty. Ask yourself "if I was guilty and trying to get away with this, what would I do?"

When you're innocent you think that your innocence means something. It doesn't. Discount it and move on.

2. Get the best lawyer you can not afford. Borrow from anyone and everyone. I borrowed 120k for my trial. Had to work my ass off to pay people back but it was worth every cent.

EDIT: Another mindset to use is to remember it's NOT a justice system. It's a legal system, so get the best damn team you can. Because you're in a legal game not a justice game. Know what game you're playing before you step on the floor.

3. Never ever ever ever talk to the cops. Retain your right for silence. It's the greatest gift you have. The cops don't want to sort anything out, they aren't on your side. They want to nail you. That's all they care about. They have a job to do. That job is to find someone to blame for this problem. So they're gonna do that. Don't help them do that. Save your ammunition for trial. My jury ended up laughing at the prosecutor and the investigating officer in the trial.

I was acquitted of 13 charges in under 70 minutes by my jury. If I had of used a public defender I would be in prison still. With another 6 years to go.

Hopefully this advice helps someone else. Hit me up if you're in trouble with the law and just want an ear to listen.

PS. If you're guilty, I got nothing for you, no idea how to help you.

EDIT: Another mindset to use is to remember it's NOT a justice system. It's a legal system, so get the best damn team you can. Because you're in a legal game not a justice game. Know what game you're playing before you step on the floor.

Well as your funding goes up, the scope of your mission increases. I don’t see this as a “side project” so much as a necessary part of solving the bigger picture. It’s like how building a battery factory is what makes Tesla work. You can buy batteries from Panasonic and indeed they did, but as they grew they realized they needed their own factory. In the same way, if you want to work on developing novel RL algorithms you can’t test it all in one game. You need a way to test it in many different problems using a standard interface. That’s how I see this.
This is why I never buy a game, before a crack is out. For me DRM has the opposite effect of intended - it delays my purchase.
Why not stick with Korean pronunciations? The pronunciation is deterministic from the alphabet.

I said "it's possible I might choose your approach", meaning the option is open to me - CRA defaults or completely custom. You have the option to go either way. Whereas a noob should just use CRA.
If you want to learn more about what makes GPS tick, here’s a home made receiver that was build from the ground up. A stunning project with an incredibly detail writeup.

http://www.aholme.co.uk/GPS/Main.htm

One of the things that really caught me by surprise is that the GPS signal is way too weak to be detected out of the noise in isolation. It’s only possible to receiver it if you know what to expect:

“All GPS satellites transmit on the same frequency, 1575.42 MHz, using direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS). The L1 carrier is spread over a 2 MHz bandwidth and its strength at the Earth's surface is -130 dBm. Thermal noise power in the same bandwidth is -111 dBm, so a GPS signal at the receiving antenna is ~ 20 dB below the noise floor. That any of the signals present, superimposed one on another and buried in noise, are recoverable after bi-level quantisation seems counter-intuitive! I wrote a simulation to convince myself.

GPS relies on the correlation properties of pseudo-random sequences called Gold Codes to separate signals from noise and each other.”

That's a possibility, though there's a long history of transit users prefering through routes rather than transfers. If Muni could maintain 4 minute headways (or shorter), consistently, in the subway, that might be an option. It would reduce the wait times inbound on the subway to an average of 2 minutes, which is tolerable.

You still end up with the service irregularities on the surface sections, unless those rights of way are dedicated. Something which really should have happened long ago on Geary and Irving/Judah, 3rd St., etc. Maybe with the dedicated transit route on Market the idea will spread.

Extending the subway further out is another option, though expensive and fairly unlikely.

That makes no sense when you factor Portugal in, for example.
I played around with it for a year or so (had three consecutive Raspberry Pis running it as a VNC/SSH console and general tinkering machine), and quite enjoyed it, except for two things that turned out to be the ultimate dealbreakers:

* no truly useful self-hosted browser (when you can’t even log on to your home router to troubleshoot things, an always-on console is useless)

* mouse chording (I understand the history of it, but it was a constant pain)

I would have loved to (for instance) hack my Chromebook into running Plan 9 natively, but being fundamentally unable to use it without an external mouse made it impossible. And no, key combos are not the answer here.

Another thing I played around with was running Inferno on the Pi (I have a bunch of resources for both listed on https://taoofmac.com/space/os/Plan9), and that was a lot of fun (for the low-level stuff).

Now for the controversial bit:

Porting a full browser to Plan9 is not likely to ever happen, but I do wish the community would make an attempt at modernizing it ever so slightly rather than assuming it’s perfect (I’m on the 9fans mailing-list, and it is a fascinating cross-sample of hard-boiled traditionalists and almost ascetic pragmatists)

> The eff doesn't exist to defend pirates so that is irrelevant.

That depends on your definition of piracy. The EFF strongly fights against the DMCA.

> Pirating in every shape in form has to be one of of the lowest crimes to get caught for.

Low in terms of what? Punishment? A fair number of people have received harsh punishments, as already mentioned. You mention you were caught distributing a lot of pirated material, so the probability of getting caught seems high. The fraction of people that received a non-trivial punishment of those caught distributing a lot of pirated material is higher than 1/180 million.
why do you think its a good idea to keep touching the mouse? it's not about emulating a teletype machine. it's about not picking up your (probably right) hand and moving it to the mouse constantly. this is something the teletypewriters of the past never had to deal with. I guess you don't yet have RSI?
I can't fathom Missouri getting away with imprisoning someone for 22 years and not paying him any compensation. An entire life down the drain due to incompetence.
Language standardization is not something that exists.

You could hope for merging of communities that create an unified language, but whenever two communities are not completely merged, each will coin new words, the pronunciation will drift, etc.

That is because locutors create languages, not ruling bodies.

Examples of that include canadian french, and english as spoken in Europe, for which many words are not known to native english speakers.
Peer pressure. As one of those who consciously refused the smartphone there are people in my environment who won't let any chance go by to tell me that 'if I had a smartphone' and then followed by some inane reason that is probably one of the reasons why I don't have one.

I totally agree with this.
Pretty much everything is dubbed in France, Italy and Spain.

Another article on that page https://qz.com/1213443/the-world-is-getting-better-at-englis... lists English proficiency by country. English proficiency is measured by average score on a test by a certain English testing company, which is obviously a flawed measure but ^\_o_/^.
Plan9 tools are great to use on thinkpads since they actually have 3 buttons. Most would find a dedicated mouse more appropriate however (the vertical one with 3 buttons and a separate wheel for instance).

Plan9 workflow is mouse oriented and it's fantastic. Its keyboard workflow or the lack of it is infuriating, for me, your typical linux/vim guy.
The linux mouse oriented workflow, or the lack of it, is equally infuriating for me now that I have used plan9(port), acme, editable dumb terminals, etc. So I hack it in my tools, however I can.

I would warn newcomers that experimenting with plan9 and its tools can create strong frustration :)

Taking everything said at face value, you pay 120k for 6 years in the job market. That's 20k a year, without interest.

edit: please don't read this as an "oh, only 20k a year" comment. My intention was just to make the number approachable by connecting it to the given return.

In the same way one would explain unreasonably high college expenses.

My guess is people still think Webpack is hard to configure despite that being quite simple now.
No one cares about perfect English, queen's English, when speaking with Europeans. The place it matters is in writing, where improper constructions can be really irritating. And writing well is a real skill.
That's really not true. Many people I know also speak English, but that doesn't mean that they somehow forget how to speak their own language. If anything, small communities with an own language tend to be fiercely proud of that language, and do everything in their power to protect it [see e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_German]. And if these languages do disappear, it tends to be because the national language is taught in schools and slowly replaces it in younger generations.
Well, if I were your friend you'd be roughly halfway there, and if you couldn't pay back then I probably would not lose sleep over it. It depends on your friends, on your standing with them and possibly on who their friends are.

That said, the American legal system is totally fucked up and of course it should not take that kind of money to stay out of jail if you're innocent. The burden on society in the longer term is terrible, the burden on these individuals unforgivable. The fact that there are no penalties for prosecutors that wrongly convict, no proper compensation for time served and that prosecutors tend to do dick measuring contests based on their conviction rates doesn't help either.

It is not that they are failing in English, rather that they are less dependent on foreign content, having localized versions from whatever might be relevant.

As polyglot speaker, I am really thankfully to have been brought up learning multiple languages.

A more charitable take on machine learning: you decide that your criterion is predictive accuracy, and you evaluate it on a holdout set (or you cross-validate).

The idea of evaluation on a holdout set is actually frequentist: it's equivalent to "I really want my model to work well on the true distribution, but that's unknown, so I shall approximate it by the empirical distribution of the data." The empirical distribution is the maximum likelihood fit to the data, if you allow yourself the entire space of distributions.

Compare to how Bayesians do model selection... I've seen several versions:

-- "I have a prior on the set of models, and I compute the model evidence using Bayesian principles, and thereby update my beliefs about the set of models." (This is a clean principled approach. Shame no one does it!)

-- "I compute model evidence using Bayesian principles. The model with the largest evidence is my favoured model." (This is nonsense.)

-- "I compute model evidence. I then use gradient descent to find the hyperparameter values that maximize evidence." This is what is done by all sorts of "Bayesian" frameworks, such as the Gaussian Process models in sklearn. (This is classic frequentism, but for some strange reason Bayesians claim it as their own.)

I certainly wouldn't argue that "predictive accuracy" is the be-all and end-all of modelling -- but it is a nice clean principled approach to model selection. I have honestly never seen a Bayesian who takes a principled approach to model selection.

> When you're innocent you think that your innocence means something. It doesn't. Discount it and move on. ... If you're guilty ... no idea how to help you.

Not sure how to read that. Is this consistent?

I'm not trying to bait or anything. Judicial institutions aren't about some objective truth somewhere out in the universe. Best case scenario is that their processes provide stability. (The nice, good governance kind of stability, therefore creating legitimacy, being predictable etc.)

I can therefore fully understand the first part. No idea why they chose to return to the question of guilt again later in their comment.

It wouldn't change a thing in the usefulness of their advice.
On a related note, I have been looking for good references on cursive writing. While there are many references for cursive writing popular in the US such as D'Nealian, Zaner-Bloser, etc. there aren't many as many references for joined-up writing popular in the UK. I was looking for something where the joined-up style resembles printscript as much as possible. Here are a few resources I found during my search for anyone interested in British-style joined-up handwriting:

- https://www.cursivewriting.org/joined-cursive-fonts.html

- https://linkpenfonts.co.uk

Although the second link is the more recent website, I like the fonts presented in the first link.
