This is a good point. As far as I understood, Keybase's main offering, i.e. key discovery for accounts you knew little about, was never about "the best crypto that scales to Zoom levels".

Though what the main features were got very muddled anyways, especially with the odd Stellar cryptocurrency wallet implementation. I'm very interested to see what they do with the existing tech, or whether there will be open-source forks that are somehow compatible.
Modeling electrons as tiny objects that have probability distributions has a weakness. There is no sensible value to assign to the 'tiny'. I mean there is no experiment to determine the 'size' of the electron.
I'm not convinced that self driving cars are pandemic proof, on the contrary. Who's gonna desinfect the car seates and handles of an autonomous self driving car during a deadly pandemic? It's a lot safer to use your own car than a virus and bacteria ridden shared car used by God knows how many infected people. The customer isn't gonna clean it. So you need workers to clean and desinfect the car after every single ride. Even if you use robots, the cars must drive to the cleaning facility first, dramatically reducing their availability on the streets and profitability.
The Unsafe Class: Unsafe at Any Speed
It’s hard to be proud of liking games, perhaps distinctly so as a man, when so many men are such poor examples of good sportsmanship when playing with others. I’m not really going to put too fine a point on it because it applies in many contexts surrounding gaming, including journalism, but also in livestreams and online play. People can talk tough without any intention of gatekeeping, but interpretations and effects matter as much as intent. Harming others because of their gaming or association with gaming isn’t fun, and it isn’t part of the game. Just leave it on the field.

Am I old? I feel like I shouldn’t even have to say all of this, and this isn’t directed at OP but more at gamers generally, and friends of gamers.

I might agree with the author but why focus on a small part of the process? What is the ideal way to fund, recognize and reward scientific efforts? Has there been significant progress in each of those fronts?

May be it is my biased opinion, I feel that universities used to have a better balance in terms of exploration/exploitation by giving more space to non conformists and eccentric characters. These days, the system seems to be very skewed towards conformists.

I'm sorry but it does require proof, both ways. If you follow a particular political view of course everything you seem to think is the right view very conveniently supports that political viewpoint. When it opposes your viewpoint I'd would be great to see how you shift opinion drastically.

I have to say riotx is miles ahead of riot android. If only it could do voice and video yet.
For desktop I have to say riot has been really on and off. In particular voice/video calls are hit and miss. Sometimes it rings but one can't pick up, sometimes it just does not ring.
I actually have been experimenting with some of the alternative clients (I particularly like nheko reborn) unfortunately non do voice video yet.
Interesting tip. Additionally, I believe attacking the cause of procrastination can be helpful in the long term. Just asking "Why do I need to check my Twitter feed?" and "Is it more important than the task I am currently tending to?" can go a long way in reducing procrastination.

I have not read it, but I believe that whilst a seminal work that modern scholars draw a great deal from, it is neither the entry point for the casual reader, nor is it the latest thinking on many parts.

Can I recommend 'SPQR' by the wonderful Mary Beard as a better entry point.
Roman culture was initially just Greek culture, and Greek culture would remain a heavy influence on Rome throughout its existence. Hence why we refer to it as Greco-Roman in a historical context.

These "general strikes" are but one way that the conflict between the plebeian and patrician classes manifested itself. A central pillar in Roman society, it persisted long into the imperial era, but since by the time of Augustus, the powers of the Senate and the Tribunes (which still existed) were evaporated, the conflicts weren't as dramatic as the republican ones.

You can counter-argue your static culture question with since the fall of the Western Roman Empire to the rise of capitalism in the 18th century, Western Europe maintained the same economical structure (i.e. feudalism); was European culture pretty static for a very long time?

History is a lot more complicated than that. If one only focuses on one aspect, then similar events may crop up occasionally, making one think people did not change much over long time spans. But sometimes re-introducing old protests can be a way of honouring one's ancestors as well as inspiration for a solution to one's new conflict.
I rather have the comfort of frameworks, and the occasional edge case than dealing with creating the world from scratch.

This is what gives "hunt for libraries" mentality of Khronos versus the comfort of using MetalKit or DirectXTK.

Damore hasn't said much of his idealogical beliefs publicly and I think it's unfair to criticize him on his choice of legal counsel because he just wants to be well represented which is his right. Regardless of your political beliefs Dhillon is an accomplished attorney. Other attorneys on the left in California don't want to touch the case because of the pearl-clutchers and public political implications so the enemy of your enemy becomes your friend.

I don't identify ONLY as a gamer... I'm a gamer, a Dad, a Canadian, a jr developer, a painter, etc etc etc. If I feel like consuming content about a specific one of those subjects it's useful when they call out who they are targeted for.

You are confusing the use of labels or even self identifying as belonging to those labels with the attitudes of those who are in those groups.

You're taking a vocal minority and painting the entire group with it ... think of other areas in life where you wouldn't do that...
Obviously, on the one hand we have risks posed by the virus. That itself is complicated because of everything we don't know. Will we be able to create a vaccine? Does the lockdown actually save lives or just delay deaths until the lockdown is lifted? Exactly how deadly is the virus? How much of the population has already had the virus? If we stop the lockdown, will healthcare be overwhelmed?

On the other hand, we have the cessation of useful work. That's going to have consequences. There are reports of crops going to waste because they can't be harvested. The lost productivity will lower everyone's standard of living, which will translate into additional deaths. The isolation imposed during the lockdown will also damage people's mental health.

So, yes, I think there is a complex trade-off and I think its immature and naive to think otherwise.

Using virtual desktops regardless of OS. Also assign hotkeys to them. I always find other developers wasting so much time with their mouse to focus a window when they could have placed a group of related windows on a designated virtual desktop which they can navigate to quickly with keyboard shortcuts. Virtuawin is what I use on Windows, but for Macs or Linux, you can configure the native virtual desktop equivalent well enough to make usable with hotkey. It cuts down visual clutter and gives you focus on a specific task way better.

They generally work fine. They just annihilate battery life and processing capacity while doing so.
Neat! So this is the kind of tool all those hip programmer folks on Twitter use :)

In all honesty I believe the crypto offerings were a smart idea that didn’t undermine Keybases reputation , it attempted to highlight a user friendly exchange of Stellar and any further crypto to come along .
What did undermine the reputation was allowing a system that could be scammed which called for the closing of the offering .
Clearly not thought out enough .
> at least one mass grave

You mean Hart Island, which has been used as a mass grave / “potter’s field” for more than a century and already contained over a million deceased?

Certainly New York was hit especially hard, but it’s sensationalist to refer to “mass graves” when it’s in fact a routine thing.
I totally get what would have gone in to come up with this. Often frameworks are released and their versions are bumped up with major changes without thinking about the struggles/emotions developers might face. Speaking from experience, just recently I had to sit together fixing and upgrading my codebase to the latest version of a framework that I was using. More than the development process itself these take more time and the developer frustrates himself going over StackOverflow and reading through comments on GitHub issues to figure the point he is missing out on.

More importantly, I think that framework writers need to think of their developers as their users and make sure everyone is notified about the updates happening and are on the same level. I know it is a lot to ask for given that these projects are open source but a huge gap in the way we leverage open-source products for its use.
Interesting to know. Though calling the terminal only version an "inferior version" to me sounds like they are aware of its caveats.

This is Ada behaviour when doing stack allocations actually.

Now, if only they could spin off all the gaming content...maybe create a separate website for that. How about Justin.tv? That sounds nice, doesn't it?

I've been using the website for over ten years now and it's somewhat sad to see how it has actually deteriorated over time (from the perspective of how it used to be). Having been part of the community that made Justin.tv win against its competition, it feels like they built on our backs, only to slowly abandon us over time. The initial honoring by spinning off Twitch.tv for games exclusively has long worn off, as it was supplanted by non-gaming categories who continue to grow as they happily copy from other streaming websites (Afreeca first and foremost).

I really wish there were proper alternatives in the West but network effect is a thing and somehow, their websites are even worse than Twitch.tv (Mixer doesn't work at all at the time of writing this).
Wouldn't that apply to both sexes? Can you really tell someone what their interests are?

"happy with" is not the same as "interested in" however it seems like the last 2 decades have had a lot of focus on letting people follow their passion.
The hobby is oppressing you or whatever subset of people you are inserting yourself into is oppressing you.

I don't see how simply being a fan of games, playing them, collecting them, or creating them can be oppressive on it's own.

Ada/SPARK does not allow for dynamic allocations, all of them must be proven at compile time.
Agreed. People think it is important to them. It may even impart information they can use to better themselves, not that it necessarily must. It’s entertainment primarily by virtue of usage if not of intent, as in the case of HN.
Yep I absolutely love Miro. It has a lot of neat visual features, but however is aimed more at team collaboration rather than organising note taking for individual use. Regardless I think there's a lot Miro has to offer!

Edward Gibbon does not concern himself much with the republican era, when the secessio plebis occurred. As his title foretells, he concerns himself mostly with the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire (not its rise). Thus he begins after the five good emperors, i.e. Commodus, as a pinpoint from whence the decline begins in earnest.

He reflects on earlier terrible emperors, like Nero and Caligula, and contends that even though terrible, they were nowhere near as terrible as Commodus, nor did their behaviour have lasting influence on later emperors, hence the five good emperors following them.

Gibbon suffers in perspective from the era he was writing in, late Renaissance Enlightenment era, where blaming the church was a recurring theme. He lays heavily blame on Christianity for the collapse of the Roman Empire, and downplays the church's official perspective on the persecution of Christians before the Empire became Christian.

While I can heavily recommend his work, I also strongly advise people to view Gibbon through the lens of when he was writing. Gibbon's usage of original sources and footnotes makes him a founder of modern historical sciences. And in that regard, his work is incredible. But as another commenter said, we have learnt a lot about ancient Rome since the 1770s.
Well considering 1 hour of spring, summer fall skin exposure at noon will generate between 10,000 and 20,000 IU of Vitamin D, I’d be interested in what would constitute a high dose.

These scientists believe the RDA of 600 IU was a statistical error, and that the correct amount should be 8,995.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28768407/

Considering how much vitamin D is generated during sun exposure, 600 IU seems ridiculously low.

Is the site worse for gamers now than it was before, in your opinion? Or is there just more of other kinds of content and the issues that can cause. YouTube for example seems an even stranger and worse site compared to Twitch in this context for gamers. However, I haven’t used it much other than to catch some 2d fighting game tournaments, but I had a link to that so I didn’t have to search or browse much. The little I have seemed serviceable, but I am not an expert familiar with its pain points and limitations.

Funny you mention Justin.tv. I used to livestream on there with a potable rig I made with an Asus Eee Pc before it was cool. If it was ever cool, it wasn’t on my stream. But I digress. Even back then, people were using it for game streaming and it felt somehow off in the way I think you mean, so thanks for that insight.

> Roman culture was initially just Greek culture, and Greek culture would remain a heavy influence on Rome throughout its existence. Hence why we refer to it as Greco-Roman in a historical context.

This is about as accurate as describing the culture of the Abbasid Caliphate as Persian. They were Arabs whose high culture was deeply informed by Persian culture, not Persians. In the same way the Romans were not Greeks, any more than the Carthaginians and other Phoenicians were. Their language was different. Their political culture was somewhat outside of the Greek mainstream. They were more liberal in regards to women’s social role than the Greeks. Their cultural production was pitiful compared to the Greeks’.

The Romans stand in a similar relation to the Greeks as the English to the Romance speaking Western Christian world. Nothing about them makes sense without reference to the other but they’re very different.
I will be honest and tell them it is because these are more productive and I enjoy being productive
Correct, though just to be clear, "hold" doesn't correspond to anything in the Chinese. (I only mention this because on a character-by-character basis, "royal" and "house" are fairly decent glosses of 王 and 家.)

"King" is also a decently well-known English surname, so we can draw a pretty close analogy to the distinction between 王家, the royal household, and 王家, the 王 family. Compare the English sentences

1. That's the king's house. [The king lives there]

2. That's the Kings' house. [The Kings live there]
“Artisanal” is very broad here: the opposite of anything mass-manufactured, impersonal, “soulless”.

Artisanal beer, cheese are already part of big-city hipster culture.

I think if you watch anyone you'll come to that conclusion.

The original iPhone's width in portrait orientation was 320px, the viewport was 980px. When a page loaded it was rendered to a viewport 980px wide, like a browser window 980px wide. Without setting a viewport setting Safari would render a page as if it was a 980px side browser window.

The viewport meta tag let's you adjust this virtual window size. You can set it to whatever value you want but "device-width" will just use the screen's current width according to its current orientation. You can add it to a page's header and in many cases it'll look way better on mobile even without specific CSS targeting mobile.

The default viewport size of the original iPhone was in place to let it use the "normal" web. At the iPhone's introduction this was a big deal because other smartphone browsers worked best with simple "mobile" layouts. Safari on the iPhone rendered web pages as they looked on the desktop. Making the viewport sized to the display usually makes it so a user doesn't need to zoom in to read text or horizontally scroll to read wonder content. This behavior makes modern mobile browsers render pages more like old mobile browsers where the viewport was usually the portrait screen width (320px typically).
