I'd argue another point; satellites are a major bottleneck to GIS as we're familiar with. With only ~300 or so commercial imaging satellites in orbit, current revisit rates are sufficient for most use cases. Maybe one or two images/day for X point depending on weather. Low earth orbit is getting crowded, fuel to raise and lower orbit is limited onboard, expensive maintenance cycles, etc.

I'm working on a startup trying to solve this problem now. The idea is to "crowdsource" aerial imagery using a network of camera arrays on 80,000 commercial flights/day. We stream the video feed back to earth using in-flight wifi and overlay the visual diff to create a map that shows minute-level changes. There are huge built-in cost savings that come with not having to develop, launch and maintain a satellite constellation, and with a vastly higher revisit rate (as high as 4,532/day in some areas).

Net 5 looks great, but it's unlikely to land in Unity any time soon. Unity runs on its own fork of mono, and if you're trying to build for mobile you'll need to use the il2cpp backend. Official support is for some versions of C#, not all of dotnet (eg, F# and VB are not supported).

I haven't played with it yet, but I think Stride3d is an open source engine that's actually built on dotnet - I'd expect newer versions would land earlier and wider language support.

It does stink to some (many?) people, much the same way some people think that cilantro tastes like soap. Which is why you see "no durian" stickers in public places throughout Asia.

>Lincoln was anti-slavery in the sense that he thought it was morally wrong, he just didn't see any way of ending it that was constitutional.

I think that is the general consensus of Lincoln's thoughts at the beginning of his administration.

>...Ending that balance meant effectively the game was over,

Well it is debatable that the "balance of power between free and slave states" had shifted because Lincoln had been elected.

>...The people of the time understood the implications and acted based on their understanding.

Slavery had existed in many other countries. As other countries have shown, just because slavery is prohibited, that doesn't mean you need to rebel against your country and cause hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths.
"Durian does not stink of death"

Sounds like you're the one spreading lies. Durian is without a doubt, the smelliest, nastiest fruit I have ever had the displeasure of ever smelling or eating in my life. My wife is from SEA and literally laughed out loud when I showed her your post.

I work as IT-Support for a university and during the last months I mainly had to do with video conferencing both on and off work (a person living in my household still studies and they have been in conferences as well).

My feeling is: video conferencing took hold for two main reasons (in the university context):

1. It is the most straightforward continuation of whatever existed before (those who talk, talk and those who listen, listen)

2. People have desire for beeing close with others

However in terms of efficiency, I noticed that the raw educational value of some (often 4h+ long) meetings could have been summarized by watching a well produced 15min video and reading a 10 page PDF, if one were to skip all the chitchat and pointless hollow remarks. In terms of information density the seemingly unlimited nature of video conferencing doesn't work out well in practise (especially if paired with people who like to hear themselves speak).

Most of our educators are certainly not happy with what it does to the way they have to teach (less interactivity — anything other than a 3-way conversation is nearly impossible, the rest has to be passive). They say it leads to more frontal and less communicative education.

As musician, artist and programmer i know async collaborations and projects — the best stuff was always a combination of sync and async. This is why I tend to recommend to our educators to view video conferences not as the replacement for their usual seminars, but as part of a strategic mix with synchronous (video conferences) and asynchronous components (email, collaborative text editing, etc).

There's some discussion in this thread about the less-sexy corners of the market that are getting eaten by software. What I'm wondering about is whether these corners yield the incredible levels of profitability that we've seen in the past from the tech industry. In other words, with something like Facebook, once the basic product was operational, every additional million of users came with negligible acquisition costs. With something like SAP, every new customer requires a gargantuan integration effort.

So what I'm curious about is this: It might be true that there is a long tail of industries that remains to be eaten by software, but do we expect the software in those industries to be as scalable as it has been in "tech"?

I don't think they's a problem with hiring workers based on market wages, but we're talking about these companies who seek to disincentivize existing remote workers and take advantage of the current situation to decrease worker salaries while keeping them on board. If your worker is remote, their location doesn't matter so long as they have a good internet connection. This all comes across as opportunistic and bordering on coercive. Honestly wage decreases in general seem exploitative since the worker doesn't really hold much bargaining power especially in an economic downturn.

> Again, it’s dual intent

“Dual intent” refers to a nonimmigrant visa which does not prohibit applicants from intending to apply for an immigrant visa without leaving the country when they apply for the nobimmigrant visa (suspicion of this “immigration intent” is grounds for denying other nonimmigrant visas.)

> and is functionally the only way for skilled immigrants to get green cards

It's not a way for anyone to get a green card, which you can only do with an immigrant visa. It is, however, a way to get into the US while trying to qualify for an immigrant visa. (Or while already qualified for one for which there is a long delay.)
Crispr as an Antiviral Strategy to Combat SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza [pdf]
very valid points, even my siblings (in their 50s and 60s I might add) struggle immensely with even already aging tech, if i want to facetime my sister, I must first make a costly international telephone call to alert her to the incoming almost free video call, mostly so she can turn on the device (an iPad)! If she hands that device to my father, in his 90's, then it's a real struggle, as he doesn't relate the voice chat to the video chat, and to be honest he gets so little experience of it, he never will. My Uk resident siblings are a little slow on modern tech, and quite comically to me, believe they are up to the minute.... My brother for the longest time found it easier to send me a "linkedin" message than add my email address to his address book!!!! never mind use the WhatsApp he had all along! Slowly they're catching on....

as for Skype, well they missed that completely I think, yet I use it almost every time I make an international call....

oh yes, one more important thing, as my parents aged, we tried to get them to use a handphone (mobile phone), again, a huge problem, as they would never leave it turned on, and again, never knowing when the batteries had drained, so my father would take it cycling, if he needed help, turn it on (or try to) then try to use it, as far as i am aware, it sat its entire life beside a few similar hand me downs on the living room window sill, next to the coiled up charger, waiting for that time when it may be useful (if only it were charged), I am certain that none were ever used. I suggested an Ipad some years ago when they first appeared, my sibling simply cried that they were too complex, it seems even for them, never mind the parents!
Thai durian is nothing when compared to the smell and taste of Malaysian durian.

Provided that the software is correctly written, ARM's weaker memory model allows for more flexible instruction and I/O scheduling.

It seems most people feel that the DEC Alpha went too far in weakening the memory model to improve performance, but A64 seems to at least be near the sweet spot.

It's also not a huge amount of work that gets thrown away decoding x86 instructions in parallel, but there's non-zero overhead introduced by having the start location of the next instruction depend on what the current instruction is.

Edit: I'm 50:50 on whether they take the negative press hit of publishing this anyway. If they publish without name included - everyone still finds out the name of the "flippant" writer. If they don't it just concedes that their attitude was wrong to begin with. They are in a tough spot now - hard to feel sorry for them given the asympathetic position they assumed.

SlateStarCodex shutting down in direct response to the hubris/disregard of one NYT reporter hungry for a story. This parasitic appetite for airtime come-what-may approach to journalism needs to be checked. There's no reason the writer couldn't leave the real full name out of the article once requested and with legitimate concern aired by the person hes naming.

I'm glad "Scott" is taking this stance if only for the fact that it puts the onus of hard/difficult decisions back on the NYT - i.e. why despite legitimate concerns are your writers comfortable doxxing people?

The key highlight for me -

"When I expressed these fears to the reporter, he just said that me having enemies was going to be part of the story. He added that “I have enemies too”. Perhaps if he was less flippant about destroying people’s lives, he would have fewer.

(though out of respect for his concerns, I am avoiding giving his name here.)

After considering my options, I decided on the one you see now. If there’s no blog, there’s no story. Or at least the story will have to include some discussion of NYT’s strategy of doxxing random bloggers for clicks."

It smells like death though? Really?

I'm sure there are differences in how people perceive durian, among other foods. Most Cambodians don't have a particular aversion to durian though and it's definitely popular at the market, but sometimes you see it prohibited in touristy guesthouses and restaurants.

Here in Australia, you can actually get fresh durians!

There are only 50 odd trees in the country, near Darwin, so the fruit cost a mint by the time they are flow to Melbourne and Sydney. They're good. The consensus is better than the Thai ones, but I hang around Malaysians, who have a low opinion of Thai durians.

Around 1980, there was talk of growing tropical fruit in Northern Australia. Our seasons are out of phase with Asia's, so that would have made a lot of sense. I don't know why it didn't happen.

There is one problem that the article doesn't mention: people who haven't been to Southeast Asia tend to mistake the durian smell for a gas leak, and call the fire brigade. You have to be careful where you take them in the west.
I'm more interested in running a non-Apple OS on Apple hardware than the other way around. After seven years of running MacOS on Apple laptops I want to ditch the walled-garden and MacOS.
My personal takeaway was that I don't know as much as I think. I didn't produce any data at the time to prove my point (not that I would have known how to), and because of that it's hard for me to analyse the situation more meaningfully as to why I was wrong.

Why they were successful in the end: the team struggled for some time before they got momentum with a single really large customer that put in resources, and made other customers follow. It's not that the tech got better that much, customers were just more willing after they saw one of the leaders in that space invest in that approach, and they were afraid of falling behind. It was not because of machine learning, but despite of it.
It’s fun with even two players but it’s definitely more interesting with four or more.

When I started at Google, I sat next to a guy who used to write compilers for DEC and Intel. I asked him, given the huge amount Google spends on hardware and electricity, if he thought that switching to ICC was worth while. His answer was basically that ICC is tuned to maximally exploit undefined behavior for marketing purposes and he wouldn't want to use it in production, at least without heavily tweaking flags to disable some optimizations. ICC gets most of its speed advantages by enabling optimizations that are present in GCC/Clang, but deemed too dangerous to turn on by default.

of waiting for/talking with multiple "customer service" reps?

After NYT's all-too-credulous parroting of Barr's mischaracherization of the Mueller report I tried to cancel mine, but spent over an hour on the phone with no progress, and gave it up. I should have persisted — I don't want to give them my money any more, and this is all the more reason to cancel. At the same time, I don't have the time or patience to subject myself to phoning them again in the near future. Surely there must be an easier way? Certainly there should be.
