I've often thought about doing this or something similar. Can I ask, how long have you been at it? How did you pick your initial round of public domain pictures? What was your growth curve like?

And did you automate the print/production initially or do it only after you'd been around for a while? If you don't mind me asking, what print/production company are you using, how did you find them and why did you settle on them (vs. someone else, say)?

Any more information would be welcome.

Yes, I want you to go case by case, and understand what most of them are like, instead of picking just those that are examples of bad policing.

Why not both? We do have police problems. We also have mass criminal psychosis. (Just look at the news recently...)

Yeah, that's why I edited in that last paragraph.
This topic has been circulated around any forums in Hong Kong for many years. Yet people, especially the Hong Kongers, still don't get the fact that why would they want to isolated themselves somewhere in other nations, instead of blending within their society.
The title isn't even the title of the article. Change the title to that of the article: "Understanding the lives of problem gamers: The meaning, purpose, and influences of video gaming"
Are you looking forward to it as a consumer or a business?

I think it will be great for businesses that are struggling with revenue due to the internet. Newspapers that don't have paywalls are going to re-evaluate considering that paywalls could now feasibly have a "day pass" option. Even sites like Reddit could adopt this model.

Could get a bit more annoying for consumers, though; constantly making purchase decisions when trying to browse the web.
The title of this submission should be changed to reflect the content of the paper - it neither talks about gaming in general, nor does it imply that video game achievement is false.

To clarify, this study focuses solely on "problematic gamers," a categorization that is still under flux, and also depends on other diagnoses that are also not well formalized, or require rigorous examination of a patient’s life beyond what is normally required for mental illnesses that are more apparent.

Neither does it state that video games give a false sense of achievement. It only observes the prevalence of achievement and challenge as a self identified motivating factor for why problematic gamers continue to play games, despite knowingly suffering from functional impairment.

At this scale, and with the speed of light being so ludicrously low, you can't benefit from that much.

If there are billions of Earth-like worlds, but distances between most of them are all in millions of light years range, we are still effectively alone in the region of the Universe which we can reach in the duration of existence of our species. Any communication even to the closest Earth-like planet, even if it builds a civilization like ours and we have something to talk about, becomes impossible, too; only one-way broadcasting could reach us (or them).

So no, Earth-like planets abundance has a lot of implications for our species (or our close descendant species) to be able to ever settle in another star system.
that one is was the first test with that brush. It turns out you can't really just drop the brush, you get strange twitch marks...
I recently went on a journey of setting up a pi hole. I eventually gave up and set up NextDNS instead. I didn't want to have to use a VPN for everything.

I was previously using Adaway on mobile. I think NextDNS produces the same result.
Hmm yeah that's a bit confusing. I think there are two effects here at play:

* The higher data density of 5G per spectrum allows you to just upgrade towers instead of having to place more dense towers with 4G. This is the "5G is cheaper" point as it allows you to avoid having to build more towers.

* Due to the increase in data demand in some few places places, you'll have to place 5G towers very densely to meet it, more densely than in the age of 4G. Not because of the technology just because it's now a different era where demand has increased even more.

Reinstalling every 6 months? Why on earth?

I'm still using Ubuntu 16.04, which I think I might have reinstalled once (after I upgraded to an SSD, so it doesn't really count), and dragging my feet about upgrading because it simply works marvelously and I don't like change. It does everything I want, coding, watching movies, gaming.

I came here to suggest Vivaldi. I’ve been using it for nearly two years as my primary browser. It’s not perfect, but no browser is. However, it’s the only browser I’ve found that treats It’s users like an adult and lets them setup the browser the way they want.

You made me chuckle. I mostly agree with you [1]. Though, to be fair, Ubuntu has been accused of being an open source Windows (or rather, OS X) almost from the get go.

I'm really conservative about software and I want to keep my apt, dammit it! I did like Unity, but only because I was never too attached to Gnome.

When I used to maintain a linux machine about 10 years ago, upgrading the kernel was a huge pain on a fedora system (basically required reinstalling the entire OS IIRC) but could be done using the package manager on ubuntu and thus was incomparably less painful. Has this difference gone away?

I’ve been doing a lot of eBay reselling and it’s been quite profitable despite minimal effort. Forces me away from the computer so that’s a plus. I also like shopping and spending money so it fills that need while making money.

No, in my book, these are different things.

Rare: if we take a sample of N random planets, only n << N of them will be Earth-like. E.g. 0.1% is "rare".

Scarce / few: if we take all the planets in the Universe, only a small absolute number of them will be Earth-like. E.g. 100 Earth-like planets is "scarce" or "few".

That is, Earth-like planets can be not scarce at all, but still rare. Much like while all water in Earth oceans contains 20 megatons of dissolved gold, molecules of gold are rare among molecules of water, which makes extraction of them impractical.

Did micro USB have different keyings for different power levels? No, we just plugged in our device and it charged at the rate the charger could support, and if you needed fast you found a fast charger.

Broadly speaking faster charging and faster speeds are just... faster. The beauty of USB is that you can plug into a billion different chargers around the world, anywhere, and while the charge rates might vary, you can charge up anywhere. Keying breaks that.

To be fair, it's not necessarily clear what to do with those transistors. When people think of Moore's Law, they usually think of all of CMOS scaling, Dennard scaling, faster clock speeds, etc

Power may soon become the bottleneck as it's not clear that energy per op is going down as fast as transistors are going up

Watched a video of a girl essentially abducted off of the streets last night in San Diego. 3 unmarked minivans pull up to a family walking home from protests and plain clothes cops pull up and grab her right off the street and threaten to shoot the group if they try to follow. It's literally impossible to tell from the video if this person was just grabbed as part of a human trafficking crime or if they really were cops.

It _was_ the cops, in the end, and she was eventually released on bail, but that shit is _nightmarish_. All of these videos that we have been seeing on social media are exposing how this style of policing that we live with today has absolutely no place in our society.

I suspect that's part of the answer, the other part is what they show is probably technically the easier ones to implement. The actual experience in some of the big name titles I tried isn't as good (yet, I'd assume) as some of the games they show. It works, but there are some odd glitches.

Machine Learning Racially Profiling on Instagram?
This is a post from the Root Institute, a Buddhist temple "offering a tranquil place to stay, to study & practice, or do individual or group retreat" which engages in social service projects in Bodhgaya. This is a video of people showing the food they are giving away to communities on a holy Buddhist holiday.

It doesn't get much more wholesome than this. So why did instagram mark this video as "Sensitive Content", warning "This video may contain graphic or violent content"?

The explanation that pops into my mind is that Facebook's ML algorithm is racially profiling the people in the video with darker skin. What do you think?

Note: When I opened the post in an Incognito browser, it didn't show the warning. I had to be logged into instagram to see it.
Covid-19: The T Cell Story
Ok, so, for one, you're miss-understanding the MIMO designation, or at least miss-representing it's meaning. 128x128 means that both sender and receiver have 128 antennas. Not that it's an array of 128 * 128 antennas (16384).

Also, the 128x128 5G MIMO deployments I could find were distributed deployments, placing remote radio heads very densely at relevant indoor locations. I assume they're referring to places like large train stations or shopping malls.

Also, regarding the "massive amounts" part: there is little incentive to transmit more than a few hundred mW per channel, just because the mobile device needs to transmit at a similar level anyways, and there are battery and cooling considerations, even neglecting the cost of power amplifiers for these frequencies.

And, the 1 million devices per square kilometer is actually just a dense, standing crowd. It's the average density that can be reached over any sizable area (putting a school class's phones in a box until the end of the lesson would imply some insane density in that box, but there'd be a limit for how many boxes could be arranged into a dense grid).

It is a matter of economics. Even at $20 per liter, that research group only pays $8k per year. It would be hard for them to justify dropping $100k on a liquifier to their funding agencies. Doing that would bump up the amount of money they ask for on a grant by an order of magnitude. Most groups use liquid helium even more sparingly than them.

I'm in a huge research university and I am only familiar with one group that has a liquifier and it's because they move through Helium on the kiloliter scale.

> A lot of people are talking about changing the laws so that officers aren't protected by qualified immunity or unions, but as far as I understand, one of the main problems is prosecutors.

It's all connected. The police unions push back hard against reforms in the prosecutors' office that might subject them to more scrutiny.

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/06/us/police-unions-minneapo...

> In St. Louis, when Kim Gardner was elected the top prosecutor four years ago, she set out to rein in the city’s high rate of police violence. But after she proposed a unit within the prosecutor’s office that would independently investigate misconduct, she ran into the powerful local police union.

> The union pressured lawmakers to set aside the proposal, which many supported but then never brought to a vote. Around the same time, a lawyer for the union waged a legal fight to limit the ability of the prosecutor’s office to investigate police misconduct. The following year, a leader of the union said Ms. Gardner should be removed “by force or by choice.”
I'm constantly boggled by stories about how the "economy" is doing badly. Of course it is. As part of a reasonable response to a pandemic people have decided (at least until recently) that venturing out and exposing themselves and their loved ones to a deadly virus is a bad idea and have stayed inside rather than spending. Further, many governments have (until recently) instated reasonable restrictions on businesses to curb the spread of the disease. Complaining that the economy is doing badly is like a family in WWII complaining that it's dark because they've shut off all the lights due to an air raid.

All the hand wringing about the economy indicates a great failing of our society, that we are incapable of viewing world events through a lens other than that of the artificial and arbitrary statistics that have come to define "the economy".

What's important is not whether "the economy" is doing well but whether people are able to feed themselves, whether they have shelter, and whether they are able to protect themselves from the virus, things that the numbers that define "the economy" are unrelated to for the most part.

Governments should focus on those things rather than propping up some "economy" by forcing people to decide between being exposed to the virus and being able to provide food and shelter for their families.

We certainly don't lack food or shelter, at least in the US, so we should make sure people have those, at a minimum. Certainly there's no collapse of demand for those and I have no doubt that they can be provided to people in need without endangering either the producers or the consumers until the virus subsides.

The whole point of the entire thread (which you seem to have missed) is that the protesters were peaceful and wanted to stay that way, and this guy came in and screwed that up, while dressed like the very force that's supposed to help defend protesters and keep things peaceful.

That's the very definition of false-flag instigation.

I guess tl;dr not all videogames are bad - it's just a medium after all. But the interactive nature of games and game designer's needs to maximise engagement has led to certain game mechanics which are designed to tap into our desire for achievement.

For me at least it is about difficulty and the feedback loop from delayed gratification and self-improvement that entails.

If you climb everest you have to be physically fit - and you have to train for months/years. In reaching that goal, you will be both physically and mentally stronger so your sense of achievement is paired with some degree of improvement.

But there are definitely games that are designed to tap into that human desire for improvement to snare you into the game. I arrived at this personal opinion after pumping ~15000 hours into an MMO: one day (while hiking, incidentally, I realised that MMOs were designed to feel a bit like real life. The grind felt a bit like a job/training for sports. Except it was easier: doing sports training for an hour everyday is HARD. Logging in to an MMO to craft for an hour or grind xp for an hour when you boil down to it is quite menial and fundamentally easy.

But I realised when you're stuck in the weeds, the chase can feel real and the achievements in the game feel satisfying.

I guess to me there's not much to personally gain from artificial strife of RNG and long xp grinds which you get in MMOs and mobile games. But I think they are designed to tap into our basic need for a sense of "achievement".

I don't think it's impossible to find a sense of achievement through video games though but it will be games that require skilled input from the gamer. For PvE games that might be your Dark Souls or Hollow Knight. There are also input heavy games like Street Fighter or Devil May Cry. Similar to those are the music games like DDR or Guitar Hero

On the other side of games you have PvP, and if the PvP is fair (ie not imbalanced by grind or P2W mechanics) then competition dynamics come into play and achievement there is really about beating other people.
