Character animation is still a field that is lacking, compared to otherwise more and more realistic environments. So Raytracing may help make interiors and exteriors really impressive, but you'll be stuck with characters that have the same looping animation when they run and move around.

That’s assuming many things... including that countries actually shutdown. It’s also assuming the 2nd wave is bad and there’s not enough partial herd immunity to slow it down and assuming we don’t have a better treatment course or even a vaccine. Even if a vaccine is only 50% effective it would be a huge win.

While I've never set things up that detailed for myself, I'm aware of many multi-screen flight sim setups. The general effect aimed for is that each screen shows the accurate perspective that you would see if you turned your head in that direction from the cockpit seat you're 'sitting in'.

Edge of screen mappings can be a little tricky but the higher level rendering engines can make near seamless transitions.

Military and commercial simulators try for displays that absolutely minimize visual artifact distractions so the experience is as close to sitting in the seat as possible.
Become a Ninja with Vue 3.0
We just released our new ebook about Vue 3.0!

https://books.ninja-squad.com/vue

You can pay what you want for a DRM-free ebook, available both in English and in French. You can also give part of the price to support the Vue team!

Vue 3 is not final yet, but we've been contributing for quite some time, and this ebook explains what we've learn about the 3.0 version of framework (TypeScript, the Composition API, the new Vue router, the new testing library, etc.).

There is also an online training that goes along the ebook if you want to go further!

I don't know what it would take, if anything. I was talking to some twenty-something folks in Berkeley about a decade ago and asked them what they thought of Snowden. They didn't know who he was. When I explained, they dismissed the whole thing. It turned out that they assumed the government was spying on everybody anyway. I don't know what to make of that, I'm just passing along the anecdote.

Anyway, from what I've heard these marketing companies are not very selective at all. More precisely, they are selective but don't dig too deeply. But this is just my impression, not fact.

I can make 10M polygons just by opening blender and asking for a UV sphere with a bunch of sides... Artists using the sculpt tool can produce models with humongous numbers of polygons, and then they have to work really hard to optimize them. I would argue the exact opposite of your claim. Models with more polygons are easier to end up with than models with fewer.

The researchers found that a problem with brainstorming is the verbal component - due to social factors and limited oral and aural bandwidth, less ideas get shared, and people forget what they were about to say.

They decided 'brainwriting' is more effective, particularly 'asynchronous brainwriting' which alternates between writing your own ideas in a group, then reviewing others' ideas. This method would support want you want - getting all the ideas out quickly, because people are less likely to hold back, then iterating on them.

CO (carbon monoxide) poisoning happens the way it does for this reason: You don't feel lack of oxygen - you feel abundance of (uncleared) CO2. If you have too much CO, you lack oxygen but don't have too much CO2, you just feel sleepy/drowsy but suffocate and die unless you do something.

It's not clear that it has been. Singapore was at that point, until a sudden spike in new cases overwhelmed them and they had to lock down. South Korea just re-closed their bars and pushed back school reopenings, because a single guy started a cluster of 80 cases and they don't trust their contact tracing to handle that many. Taiwan and Vietnam are either lucky or have better strategies than simply "do a lot of contact tracing", but in either case it's not obvious that other countries can replicate their success.
I don't get the downvotes for the above comment. The "choice" between "stay at home forever" or "open all the things up" is a false one.

The nice thing about them is they're not just laptops but tablets as well. I love my Surface Book 2, the only iffy thing is the detachable portion, it is not 100% stable and if they can fix that I'd be set and buy only this laptop type for the rest of my life, not sure if they fixed it in the SB3 or not though.

I would love to buy a Surface Go but Windows 10 lacks some apps I'd like to see on a tablet that are already on both iOS/iPadOS and Android. If they matched the top 25 apps both platforms have in each respective app category, they'd probably have a better chance to have me buy Microsoft only tablets. I guess their niche they can fill is Office on the go, but life's about more than just Office.

Mind you, I tried the PWA version of some of the top apps, but they lack features on Windows 10 (who apparently adds PWA's to their store).
Loyc: Language Conversion and Interoperability
Ok but those comments are pretty hilarious browsing through
Mathematics does have a notation problem, and that means you effectively have to learn a foreign language to be able to understand it. And like foreign languages, learning it outside of a structured, classroom environment can be difficult to sustain. Even worse is the fact that while terminology like "monad" can easily be searched for to find its definition [1], how is one supposed to search for ℜ?

Dismissing this foreign language aspect as easy to learn doesn't get to the heart of the matter. Is it really too much to be ask to be taught in vernacular English rather than foreign Church Latin, er, Mathematical Notation?

[1] Assuming that you don't get an answer like "a monad is a monoid in the category of endofunctors," which unfortunately does tend to be the case for higher mathematical concepts.
I find it very very true, however.

I'm not entirely sure what you're getting at, but there is a recent study showing that COVID cases correlate well with commuting in NYC - it's not the case that people who stay at home are getting infected just as much:

> Problem with this society is, that it also requires people who are working, to cover the cost of the poeple who are not working. Curretnly most countries do that for a very small percentage of unemployed (welfare), and most people in those countries are already complaining about the high taxes.

You seem hung up on the idea that "working" is equivalent to "producing value".

We live in a society where the system is frequently optimized to employ as many people as possible. This creates incentives to encourage a lot of work being done to win zero-sum games rather than producing value for the economy as a whole. I would argue that we are already in a situation where the majority of the population can be supported by a minority of the workers. We have long been living in a world where the limits on economic growth is consumption, not production.

If we instead have the need to encourage people to find what motivates them and provide tools to the motivated to maximize that productivity I think you will see very different social structures arise.

Beyond that, I think the removal of the lazy from the work force is actually a net positive. Employers can spend less time filtering the mostly useless to find good workers. The 10x producers among us don't have to spend as much working around the lazy coworkers and managers. Even the "lazy" among us have the freedom to discover their passions and find ways to contribute more to society than they would as a low end wage slave.

> Yes, non-workers will create music, art, will travel, write blogs, etc., but none of that generates enough income to cover even their own cost.

I think you are selling people short here, or perhaps projecting your dreams on others. There is also a great deal of work that people want to do but the value of which is not easily captureable by an employer.

> If you raise the taxes on the people left working, and let others live relatively normal lives without working, you'll get less and less of the former and more of the later.

This is actually a good thing as long as you maintain sufficient production. As production declines, the standard of living provided by basic income declines which increases the incentives of the semi-lazy to work, which then leads to increased production. As long as UBI is carefully phased in, the system should equilibrilize.

Most of these dynamics aren't possible to explore in limited studies like this one. All these types of studies can do is dispell common myths about individual bevaior and the only way to really find out what will happen is to gradually phase in a UBI.

This is a nice example of private business picking up the mantle of what is ordinarily thought of as a government function. All the hostile comments (on the blog) are probably being made by people that favor small government and therefore theoretically in favor of a private company doing the survey.

Besides the fact that most people are not all that great at writing, it is also often not to their advantage to write at all. At worst, they are in an organisation that will offshore their job at the earliest moment it seems they are easily replaced. In the more benign and common case, writing a lot is not directly detrimental to their career but it will not be that advantageous either. Written documentation is by nature usually technical in nature and therefore not often read or noticed by management. It does however take a lot of time to write, time which can not be spent on the parts of your job that get measured with KPIs or OKRs or whatever. This means that spending a lot of time on good documentation will make you "less productive" according to the measurements you are graded on for career advancement. I wonder how that would fare if you have a separate "documentation secretary", since helping those understand the code you just wrote has the same drawbacks as working on the documentation yourself.

Keeping a daily journal with relevant work and discoveries is great. You can use a simple text editor and keep appending the current date to the top of the file and writing a few a lines. You can do one per-project, or a general one for your daily life and activities. I reel back through the tape every few months when I'm curious about the timeline of development/research/discovery.

Whittling it down, I think of it as Data, Insights, and Execution. First you need lots of data, then you get insights, and finally you can execute when you're close to maximizing on insights. Writing helps keep track of the first two, and if you want to teach then execution = communication, or how you package and present something.
Not only that. But even after they "come around", I will be avoiding those businesses that acted recklessly. For instance the Walgreens nearest me employees weren't wearing masks until recently. Some restaurants are open _now_ with table service outside being served by people not wearing masks.

You're making a lot of incorrect assumptions about my worldview, and I don't appreciate it.

No matter how grounded one's perspective is, each person has a finite amount of emotional energy to spend at a given time. This is a universal truth. Articles like this one can trash one's energy reserves - causing distress - without introducing any meaningful new information or perspective whatsoever. It's simply a bad cost/benefit ratio. I didn't learn any new hard truths by reading it, and I don't need your assistance to consider all of the bad things in the world, thank you very much. What I have trouble with is ceasing to do that even for a brief moment.

Yea, I agree people should focus on solutions instead of ratting people out. This entire ordeal has produced an insane amount of 'snitching' .. three Australian boys face a $1,000+ fine for having beer together on a roof.

It all comes down to the software. While the Shield has CUDA and a “real” Maxwell GPU it’s much older than the Pi4. However having said that the Pi4 GPU is completely new and developed specifically for their board. Rasbian uses a new rendering engine and all, with potentially a little more compute headroom.

As of right now they are at parity in my experience, both can do Dreamcast and prior except N64. Which both struggle with, but I’d say the Pi4 has a better chance of catching up. They both do PSP poorly as well. PS2 and beyond is simply not possible on this tier of hardware.

It's not that nobody cares about physical security, it's that physical access opens up entire classes of attacks that aren't possible otherwise, like physical keyloggers and bridging airgaps.

If you follow defense in depth as a security architecture philosophy, which the industry does, then you still implement defenses against physical attacks, but you recognize that those defenses are either (1) defenses against opportunists, or (2) last ditch defenses.

This is not fair to people that have spent their lifetimes building businesses and are watching them go bust, or people that derive satisfaction from their employment.

Worse, for those that would rather not go back to work and are suffering, your comment comes across as "shame on them for not asking for more". This crisis is hurting so many people, and its impact will be felt for a long time. We don't need comments like this.
Considering most countries try to avoid overwhelming the healthcare system, your child is affected by it though not directly. It should just not get sick, or have any form of preexisting condition about to pop up, or infect it's parents to name some possibilities.
