You can script it in Lua. I once used that to make a presentation in it for my wife to use in class. Showed the Solar system from above, then visited Sol and each planet in turn, doing a split-screen with Earth and zooming whichever pane had the smaller body to compare sizes, that sort of thing. It was like having a scriptable Magic Schoolbus. Pretty cool.

This reminds me of when owners of a company told me to just give paracetamol to my 1yr old and leave at the nursery and come to work.
For those wondering, this appears to be not nearly as expensive as I thought. The 20" square panels used are available for around $1000 each if you buy a lot of them used. Compared to a typical production budget for a high-quality franchise, it's surprisingly cheap to build one of these walls. The equipment to run it, on the other hand, is likely not cheap at all.

Has anybody found a good model for scaling display filtering that respects users' priorities and sensibilities, rather than platform owners' and governments'?

One thing I keep hearing is that doing moderation that gives users an experience they like is a ton of work, is very experience, and can be hard on the moderators' mental health if they do it a lot and the user base is large enough. (For example, some of the moderators might be watching videos of real people dying or getting raped all day long.)

In Mastodon and so on there are instance administrators, typically volunteers, but they don't scale well and probably don't deal well with large variations in people's beliefs, culture, and interests, nor with overlapping group memberships.

Meanwhile, major platforms are spending millions of dollars paying people to do moderation as a full-time job, in a heavy-handed, error-prone, arbitrary and centralized way where the only options are sometimes "delete this for everyone", "ban the user", or "allow this for everyone". (The "sophisticated" systems may also allow things like "hide this behind a sensitive content button", "hide this from users who don't claim to be over 18", and "ban this in certain countries".)

More sophisticated, nuanced, and pro-speech filtering work that doesn't aim to uphold a single worldwide standard seems like it will be even more expensive; who will do it and how will we incentivize it?

The renewable generators get a subsidy for each kWh that they pump on to the grid. The logical thing to do if electricity were oversupplied, i.e. you have to pay people to take it, would be to temporarily shut down some renewable generation, but then the renewable providers would lose out on the subsidy for those kWh.

Looking back, I'm surprised at how well SimCity performed on an XT (monochrome and only one screen at a time). Once the 286 came out, though, things flew. It's interesting how game play hasn't changed all that much, and how many newish games hearken right back to this era and genre.
Which is where district heating comes in. Utilities, who unlike households are fully exposed to fluctuations of the electricity market, are increasingly switching their cogen pants to decoupled operation where large heat storage elements are added so that the plant can run as a peaker plant. It's not glamorous because they are still burning fossil fuel, but it's a huge improvement not only over separate burning for heat but also over synchronous cogen that would follow the heart demand. It's even a reasonable long term investment because a fully decarbonized economy would shave supply peaks with power-to-gas.
Do you think many users will be willing to adjust to the complexity and unpredictability of that environment compared to what they experience now? Just because it's mostly way better in terms of issues of freedom and power?

What is this, the ski team? No popular USA scholastic winter sport takes place outside. (It's cold outside in winter!) Indoors we have artificial lights. In my experience, high school basketball teams regularly practice in the morning before school anyway; they would not complain about that starting at 7:30 rather than 6:00 AM.
These are actually valid points for any DSL creation. I have been working on DSL for a few years. More precisely I'm working on a DSL tool that allows people to create "simple DSL that looks like english" so that normal people can use it. Here are my thoughts on those arguments.

Indeed complexity is there for most real domains. But DSL is meant to be another abstraction layer on top of the complexity. My lesson is constraint is the most important as this lays the foundation of its usefulness. I don't mean you should not have things like branch or loop. You certainly could add them, just in a domain friendly way that doesn't hurt the readability and writability of your DSL.

In order to tackle arbitrary complexity, the DSL itself should be designed with extensibility in mind so that technical people could easily add language constructs or vocabularies by using script or general purpose language. Further, those features should be able to be turned off for some scenarios. For those inherently complex stuff, they should be left to general purpose language anyway.

Tooling support is another big problem. In my opinion, DSL is never just the tiny language, it is about the language and tooling. However the tooling requirement is often not as standard as general purpose language. Domain users normally don't need an IDE(an editor should be generally required) or debugger. Rather, they want something that can be seamlessly integrated with the host application.

And more over, different people (even in the same domain) may have different requirements on DSL maintenance, eg, governance, versioning. This often leads to a case by case customization. I do not have a good answer for this other than the general advice: treat DSL and tooling as a whole and make the API as easy as possible for integration.

Edit: For anyone interested in my DSL(still work in progress), here is a glimpse:

I never liked the space a bed takes up so I decided to look into alternatives some years ago when it started to offer less support.

I always had a futon so I immediately switched to that. I also bought a cheap hammock and built some hammock stands to use it indoors.

I didn't have any problems adjusting to the futon; that's what I sleep on most of the time today. I'm also pretty sure I'd have no problems with a japanese style roll up beds either (it's basically like a futon anyway).

Hammocking, though, took a bit longer. I really wanted to make it work too. To make a long story short, my initial hammock was too short and now I do have a hammock I can sleep soundly in (which I do every now and then).

I was also initially interested on trying to train myself to sleep on a flat floor... but, ummm, that did not go well and I've never returned to trying. Maybe...

Ok, there are many serious questions here, but really now, even with the proton crisis and all that stuff, how is the vagenas model useful ? There is no known mechanism for gravity in such scales, and he abuses relativity, assymetrical rotating gravitational objects emit gravitational radiation so they are not stable, the neutrino mass he uses is his own choice since we don't know it yet and there is so much experimental stuff from the detection of quarks and the standard model that i dont really think it can really match up to them. In the end with the way he uses relativity and neutrino masses you can deduct any number you want with slight changes of one or the other, how is that helpful ? We already know all the stuff he tries to deduce. Also there is the experimental verification of Higgs and all that..
It's being done by the biggest power utility in Germany: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-01-13/germany-s...

You're not hearing about it because it's very embarrassing to Germans, as it should be in my honest opinion. I get that Germans have a very unique and real perspective on the use of nuclear power. I get that nuclear power has very real and serious risks. It's still done less harm to the planet and the things that live on it than the use of coal. Furthermore, the forced dependence on fossil fuels as a result of shunning nuclear power has all kinds of add on effects. There's no Germany without Russian gas, and Putin knows it.

Maybe I am wrong, but the way I see it Germany is sacrificing the overall less negatively impactful option (nuclear power) for fossil fuel because they are unwilling or unable to confront the cultural stance on use of nuclear power. That's the norm for cultures so I don't blame them for it, but I do think it's leading to the wrong choice here.

Api calls could be treated as events. Furthermore, match groups should be more powerful allowing any query of the form [field] [operator] [value] (e.g. Text equals {value} or URL contains "/checkout"). However, the challenges that come to my mind are:

- (i) How to handle the request/response being essentially two events

- Should they be merged into one event?

- (ii) How to handle request/response bodies and http headers?

- Passing the bodies as event properties does not seems intuitive and it would be valuable to query them with XPath / JSONPath.

- Http headers could be passed as event properties

Wherin dick gabriel rolls up his sleeves to get into the language wars and calls more popular languages than his favourite "viruses" and says they are "worse" by definition without proper justfication. It's like catnip for those around here who want to ride a technology to career success through early adoption so then put on their language warrior garbs to hunt the heretics who dare question. Old greybeards did since the time of the dinosaurs. And it sucked then too.

Sensible argument and discussion are so much more productive, interesting, enjoyable, educational than language war flame-fests of which this is one.

The most interesting aspect to me is that the system is pulling double duty by displaying both a dynamic, perspective-correct backdrop for the camera's POV and a static view for environment lighting and reflections outside of the camera's view frustum.

It isn't a legal arguement but a propaganda push. There is no publisher/platform duality. The concept is pure unadultered bullshit. There is no legal precedent for that concept but a later invention.

Ruby is one of the few languages optimized for developer happiness. It consciously makes tradeoffs in favor of that primary purpose. It is natural to expect a focus on the developer experience among its users, such as ensuring code is highly readable (as embodied in the short method reasoning). I do think some developers become overzealous and do sometimes overstate Ruby's features.
I don't know what's more surprising, that they need 30 grand to get a prototype out the door (I feel like this could be done with off-the-shelf parts way cheaper than that, starting fires electrically is something every undergrad EE should be well versed in) or that they say they've spent five years working on it.

This is super nice. Love the clear explanation and the app design.

I'd use it, except there seems to be a total lack of context. If I add this button to my (web based) single-page app, I want to know what exactly the user was doing when they clicked it.

Giving the user just a text box and hoping that they'll include all context unprompted is a bit too optimistic IMHO. Maybe your JS thing could accept a context argument, and you can show that context in some way along with the complaint.

There is no way that is true.

First of all, Udemy doesn't "steal" anything. They're a platform for people to post videos. Like if a Udemy course appears on YouTube, you cannot say "YouTube stole videos from Udemy."

If someone stole videos, that's on the thief. It's called piracy and it's been a thing on the internet since the beginning.

Second of all, people who steal other people's videos often given them away for free. Post them to black hat sites, etc. So most of those 12,000+ are probably free.

And finally, Udemy holds the money for like 45-60 days, so if a course is found to be pirated, all students get refunds and the instructor gets banned. And doesn't make a dime.

Find me a real example of a pirated course in 2019 where the pirate made money. Go on. You can't find it, because it doesn't happen.

> the resources I want most are space, peace, and silence - all of which increase with a smaller population.

Sure, it was great when you could just find a place you like, break out your axe, build yourself a cabin, and just live there. You still needed an axe, though. Even if you were a blacksmith, the iron came from someone else - several someone elses, in fact.

But that's not enough these days. Now you want a solar-powered cabin. Producing those solar panels takes people. And you want to not die in your cabin unnecessarily, so on occasion you need people like a good cardiologist.

Many of us want space, peace, and silence. We just don't want to live in the kind of world where we could get it, because we also want chunks of modern civilization available on demand.

There's also some innate complications with the nature of a company adopting an open source tool. it's classic 'build vs buy', so if a company is investing in engineers building their own in-house solutions on top of open source tools, the additional cost of licensing support/additional tools doesn't really make sense. so there's immediate friction to monetize open source users.

on the other hand, SaaS products are optimized to sell to business groups who want the hard parts taken care of for them and they perceive value in saving time/money thanks to the SaaS product. I've seen both situations (monetizing open source versus monetizing a SaaS product) first hand, and it's clear that open source companies can be at a bit of a disadvantage. If they DO monetize their users, it's usually via their own SaaS offering to augment the open source tool.
That has to be a consideration. But I don't know how much it would really speed up production of a AAA Mandalorian game. Some... maybe a 6 month head start on a 4-5 year game.

It would definitely help make the game environments higher quality and be a cost saving to the studio.

I have complained about this in the past. (If there's no food in it, it's not "the cost of living", it's "the cost of buying stuff while you die of starvation", which is not a number that I actually care about.)

But, if I understand correctly, the feds took food out of the CPI calculations because it was noisy, and because it was running less than the rest of inflation. At the time, that was not a clearly unreasonable thing to do. But, um, I'm not sure food has continued to run less than the rest of inflation...

I slept on a hammock for years indoors slung between two huge hooks I screwed into my walls.

It took a couple weeks before I fully adjusted. One nice thing is that when I went camping or on a three month bike trip, I had my every-night bed with me! It felt so luxurious!

I loved it, and if I was single, I'd still be sleeping in a hammock every night.
