which is "building WITH LED strips". I once "built" a LED-matrix display from strips, because it was a demo project and money for HW was scarce (and time to short to look into fabrication for a non-EE-person; also brightness maxes out at 1000cd/m² last I checked) - I seriously came there for some info how you created your own, cheap DIY high-density setup for the WS-LEDs (cooling becomes also a problem eventually for high brightness, so I was looking forward to a solution to this problem). Instead I got the blog equivalent of a YT-video: how to decorate your room in 5 easy steps.

BTW: You actually did do nothing more than buying a bunch of strips, I don't see a big technical difference between hue and chinese strips + a chinese hue-bridge except for the soldering (but afaik they also offer connectors for solderless application...). So you might change the title to: "setting up a chineses hue replacement for cheap with soldering" (though I would expect pictures of your soldering then...

The TS80P also supports Quick Charge in addition to USB-PD, although QC3 limits you to around 18W (versus 30W for USB-PD).

I wonder how the ergonomics on the production Pinecil will end up. I never ended up liking the TS100s feel for soldering, which made the TS80 my go-to iron. The wide tip availability is great, but I'd rather take a limited tip selection and better ergonomics.
This is why I'm not hot on big corporations virtue signalling to us consumers.

It seems that they all have moral, entanglements (to borrow Jada Pinkett's parlance), with China that they cannot seem to reconcile.

But they want to lecture us about important cause du jour?

Please! Spare me the self righteousness.
Another huge benefit of physical note taking is that if you are doing it in a meeting other people won't think you are on Slack or otherwise distracted and not listening. Instead people will feel more appreciated, since you are valuing what they are saying though to write it down.

The same can be accomplished with some iPad note taking apps.
you're right. I should have said "less and less so". In any case it's definitely trending down
The problem with this binary thinking is that the justice system has become horribly draconian, so a parent would never willingly entangle their child into it unless all other options had failed. One shouldn't have to effectively disown their son just to have the system handle unauthorized transactions as unauthorized. Really the donations themselves should be easily refundable, especially as they were done with a reversible payment system.

Your comment is about 15 years out of date. There isn’t much that is “excellent beyond what is available” in China anymore. This type of thinking is why western foreign policy continues to get China totally wrong. Chinese people who study abroad are more often confused by the things missing in the west than they are liberated in the way you describe, in my experience.
Fascinating.

I had only just learned about "evanescent wave" interactions. The idea is that, alongside wave propagation, E-M mechanics admits numerous non-wave, and therefore short-range solutions. These solutions are necessary to explain total internal reflection. E-M interactions with materials a short distance beyond the boundary can change the reflectance. ATR is clever in using multiple such interactions to sample properties of a material close enough to the boundary.

not the person you were responding to, but most of AMD's gpu troubles come down to the windows driver being hot garbage. They opened the linux driver enough that others can do a lot of the work for them. Things that don't work under the windows driver usually work great under linux.

Radeon Tech Group's in-house software support has always been abysmal since the days they were called ATI. It's been a chronic problem for both their drivers and their GPGPU ecosystem, NVIDIA can afford more engineers and better engineers to develop libraries that support the ecosystem and to make sure that everything works properly on their hardware. AMD's greatest successes have been when they get the open-source community to maintain and develop something for them.

Yes, AMD is operating on a much smaller budget but in the end it doesn't matter too much to the consumer when they can't play Overwatch for 9 months because AMD has a driver bug that causes "render target lost" errors leading to competitive bans for repeated disconnects, or... whatever the fuck happened with Navi.

Part of what you are paying for when you buy a graphics card is the ongoing software support, and AMD has always fallen flat on their face into a dumpster of rusty used syringe needles in that department.
Every school in China has a Basketball field. Not common for other team sports.

Edit: Japanese comic “slum dunk” has a huge cultural impact to those were born around 90s. NBA starts broadcasting to China around 95, Jordan, Iverson, Kobe became super idol since then. Not to mention Yao Ming. Also China team sports is pretty weak, only volleyball and basketball stands out(China’s soccer team suck, tell that to any Chinese and they will agree lol)

> you have to discount that audience by the risk of it getting destroyed overnight by an unsympathetic Twitter admin/moderator

While I have a lot of issues with Twitter, statistically speaking, the chances of this happening seem to be very, very, very small. Twitter is not full of rogue "moderators" running rampant permanently deleting people's accounts left and right. You have to be (a) willfully spreading material that clearly violates Twitter's terms of service (cf. Alex Jones), (b) ignoring repeated warnings and essentially daring Twitter to enforce their own TOS (cf. Alex Jones), and in most cases, (c) high profile (cf. Alex Jones). It's easy to find people who are temporarily banned from Twitter for dubious/spurious reasons, but it's pretty hard to find people who are punted without warning for "going against the groupthink, man."

This is function operating on values with slightly relaxed type checks. Default mode in dynamic languages:

let list_add = (n, prev, next) => {
prev[1] = n
n[1] = next
n[0] = prev
if (next) next[0] = n
}
foo = [null, null, 3]
bar = [null, null, 5]
list_add(bar, foo, null)

Looks a bit cooler with C structs names as offset.

Inheritance would be building container hierarchy on top of that. Could be brittle in any language.

I found the real world reaction to be perplexing and also ignorable.

I found the story of the game to be very nihilistic, and that just doesn't make for something that feels good, but portraying that took real effort which I can appreciate.

My litmus test is asking myself "If this game had a different name and wasn't part of a franchise I liked, would I appreciate it" and the answer is yes, a resounding yes.

Legitimately, not a lot. Musk is a founder too, and no, he doesn't know anything about AI. The few actually technical people in there (Schulman, Sutskever, Zaramba) are the ones that know their stuff, yes. Musk, Altman, Brockman are basically nothing more than hype men with tech connections.
Why would that be defensible or desirable?

While this can be very annoying, I have two thoughts on this.

First, I'd say there is no practical way to "require" this. Some companies are just going to suck here and we should avoid them when possible.

Second, lots of the comments focus on never allowing "no reply" addresses, but in my experience we're monitoring and sending out automated alerts and notifications to our customers. We include a link for more info/actions and a clear email address for contacting support. Before we switched to sending from a no-reply address we were bombarded with out of office emails (this is a B2B platform). As a small team it was significantly slowing down our ability to reply to real support issues quickly. If there was a better OOO system widely used that didn't send an email to my support I would gladly switch back.

An app is hidden away on my phone, and I need to actively open it to use it. But my bullet journal is always in my bag. It serves as a physical reminder. And it oddly gives me way more flexibility in how I structure it.

Is there "anyone who just blindly supports American military misadventures"? Is there anybody "scared of the truth"?

It could be that other people hold different values than you do. They might be fully aware and thinking, and still prefer military action that you detest.

Blind opposition can also exist. Maybe you need to re-evaluate your position.

People say this so much that is now used as a way to dismiss any study. It’s almost becoming a meme.

I think is clear that the baseline of any study is that correlation does not imply causation. You start there. That’s a basic intelligent start. You never take for granted that one thing causes the other. The ideas is to try to identify if there are any potential paths for causation.

Otherwise there’s not even a point in sharing or discussing these studies.

I’m not saying that bringing this up is wrong, but does it need to be said so much? I think it’s more interesting to analyze beyond that and try to see if there’s causation. We already know there’s an abysmal amount of correlated things but there must be a percentage of those things which are in fact caused by another at a certain level. I would love these discussions to be more focused on this and not just doing the plain classic dismissal of “correlation doesn’t mean causation”.
Sounds good to me, but I don't think it would fly. It's too reactive. The FDA needs to be able to take proactive steps to avoid mistakes. So, I take your idea and raise you:

Put cameras everywhere in your lab/factory, and give the FDA inspectors 24x7 access to every feed. This is in addition to allowing onsite random inspections, of course.

I mean, as a consumer, this would make me feel warm and fuzzy about buying drugs from that company. I mean, you could even allow the public access to those feeds, as a marketing tool!
I am pretty sure having to care for small children at home trumps commute savings.

Thank you for your work and love on Worms Armageddon. The latest patch is bringing my favourite gamemode "multishot boomrace" to worms armageddon natively. :-)

Because my oldschool and nostalgic memories are about worms world party i always wondered if it could be possible to get the two games together. It's a little bit sad, that the online-community of wwp is nearly dead, and the remastered version did not get too much momentum.

I always liked the theme/ui of wwp more, because wa's UI feeld a little bit clunky to me. (e.g. the selection of worm-pots does a neat integration of this features) Do you also do/plan some work on the UI?

On the topic of things unexpectedly not named after people...

There's a big sign on a somewhat run-down looking building on a main street in my city, that says "GENTILES". Turns out it's a company that makes flooring - i.e. short for "general tiles".

Also, there's a chain of restaurants in the northeastern US called "Friendly's" that was founded by people named "Blake", not "Friendly". It was originally named "Friendly" ice cream from 1935-1989, but eventually added the apostrophe-s because people insisted on calling it that. It still gives me a little Mandela-effect type dissonance because I remember when the logo didn't match what people said and now it does.
You might even pay someone like the Vertitasium guy to do a walk through of how everything works, and then give the public access to your feeds.

I don't think it's the tools' fault. They were built to solve problems, and they solve those problems quite well IMO.
Same. I guess I'll continue saying it that way. But I always feel so awkward about it!
ME1 was groundbreaking for the time but really has not stood the test of time all that well. The gameplay mechanics are significantly rougher than ME2, ME2 feels like a shooter with strong RPG elements and ME1 feels like KOTOR where you get to aim the guns, it is very much an old-school bioware RPG title. The mako planet exploration is excruciatingly bad. Droid scavenger hunt on the citadel is excruciatingly bad. Endless elevator rides are excruciatingly bad.

There are some sequences that felt tedious but the story is definitely the best part overall.

ME2 is definitely the apex of the series by modern standards.

Also you forgot to mention ME:A. Maybe your face was tired? ;)
Or the Destiny 2 bug (broken RDRAND implementation). Or the segfault bug (manufacturing error with broken uop cache). etc etc. There have been a fair number of teething problems affecting AMD users.

They are not incorrect that there is a certain turnkey nature of using Intel, and certain merits to using a core that has been basically only incrementally refined for the last 10 years.

And yes, Intel has processor errata too, but AMD had to work through some major ones because it was a brand new architecture. They also chose not to take corrective action for some rather major ones - the fix for the segfault bug should have been disabling uop cache, or to do a recall, instead they just let people go on thinking the intermittent crashes they experience (including in windows) are software-related. They entirely declined to patch the Ryzen Take-A-Way bug, which leaks metadata about page table layouts and breaks KASLR on their processors, leaving users even more vulnerable to spectre v2. etc.

There is a long list of tautological place names, most often where multiple languates are ised in the name.

"Rio Grande River" means "Big River River" (rio being river and grande big).

"Kill" is Dutch for creek (e.g., Fishkill).

"Avon" is Celtic (Gaelic, Irish, Welch) for river (River Avon).

"Hatchie" is Choctaw for river (Loosahatchie River)

"Mississippi" is Anishinaabe for "big river".

Similarly Mekong, Cuyahoga, Wadi (or the Hispanified "guada"), Molopo, Ouse, Reka, Upė, Walla, "ci-" perfix (Java), Owen, and otheers in different refions.

Bothmia, Chad, Laguna, Lagunita, "-kal", Loch, bach, Michigan are all other terms for bodies of water (lakes, bays, etc.).

Gibralteer, knock (cnoc), Montana, Morro, Killimanjaro (killi), pen or pendell, pic ("peak), mesa.

> Twenty one of the 24 multivariate GWAS loci reaching genome-wide significance had directionally consistent effects in the three studied datasets and 18 were nominally significant (P < 0.05) in two or more datasets (Supplementary Fig. 1).

Unrelated to the content of article but why are “twenty one” and “three” and “two” spelled out but 24 and 18 are written as numerals? Is there any rhyme or reason to this? I find this kind of inconsistency so distracting when reading technical papers. It makes me think some of the numbers were edited/changed last-minute in subsequent drafts.

So, assuming I've built a site, how do I tell other people that I've written something?

It turns out, talking with other people who are interested in the things I write about is important in the initial stages of alerting people who may later choose to follow my website.

Where do these people talk? Today, that's Twitter. (To a lesser extent, HN. Reddit has a community, but most of those communities frown on submitting your own content.)

Creators stay on twitter because it is a free way to announce to interested parties that you have made A Thing. Any other service that has sufficient people will end up having the same problems we see on Twitter.
Generically quite easily - use actual evidence that the thesis isn't accurate. It gets harder when proof is fuzzier but unfalsifiability should be in itself a useful hook.

To give an easy to disprove example if someone claims that the very existence police brutality is a conspiracy theory from criminals and their apologists and is denying the existence of criminals it would be trivial to list a long list of police brutality cases and just listing the definition of "excessive force" doesn't deny the existence of criminals.
