If you don't know why it is called 5D then you need to watch the video that best explains it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjsgoXvnStY

Hint: 4D is spatial + time, 5D is spatial + all possible timelines.
The multiple timelines can interact, however.
do you live in a hospital? because if not, those studies are of very limited utility to you, proving only that masks can possibly lower spread in a highly controlled environment, with no more than a suggestive hypothesis in any other scenario.

the CDC provides no plausible causal chain to believe masks by themselves would contain the outbreak.

you've provided no plausible causal chain that a falling droplet will suddenly shoot a virus particle right up your nose into that juicy bronchial mucus the virus loves, that a mask would prevent with high certainty.

in the real world, where masks are of highly varying quality and the general usage is poor at best, distancing, even modestly, does the heavy lifitng.
Getting approval once per campaign, or maybe every few months, is pretty different from petty micromanagment.
I can't seem to find a single page that lists all of Nvidia's current vertical software stacks, but they are legion. Aerial(5G), Metropolis(smart cities), Drive(self driving), RAPIDS(big data?), Clara(genomics), IndeX(visualization), Isaac(robotics)... etc.. etc...

They basically have to move towards vertical software stacks requiring their HW. GPUs are becoming commoditized, with integrated GPUs from AMD and Intel becoming good enough to play modern games now. 8k(haha) may keep things interesting for a while, but eventually AMD/Intel will compete there as well.

I don't know about user-facing apps though. So far, most of what they've released(i.e. Gaugan) seem more like demos.
> But, you forgo the (often hidden) benefits of past mistakes and standard techniques that have all the kinks ironed out.

I think it would be super interesting and useful if different disciplines could condense that process down into relatively readable technical histories, and make those a core part of their curriculum.

I think that would be super useful in software engineering, given the frequency that people seem to reinvent the wheel, some areas seem to oscillate back and forth between the same few concepts, and the path dependence that's locked us into others.
How has it worked at tabloid newspapers for longer than I care to remember? Same problem. This is not about tech.

Might have been because of the Godaddy CEO killing elephants or something. I vaguely recall some drama about that.
Definitely do it. I got easily 20X the value out of my home inspector than what I paid him. Not just here on the drainage problem but on other stuff as well. I paid him $800 in total to inspect two homes, he gave me detailed reports for each one plus all sorts of useful insights during the several hours each inspection took, and then he answered a bunch of questions via email for free after I ended up closing on the second house and discovering the various problems with it. And for consultation on just a single issue I'd expect you'd pay a bit less than $400.

Does anyone "hire" a tattoo artist to do their tattoos? Other than a tattoo parlor?

For this to be true, "hire" does not just mean pay someone for a service, it has to mean that that person has become an employee of your company.

For example if you "hire" (contract with) a photographer to shoot your event, the photographer retains copyright on those photos unless you negotiate work-for-hire and document it in the contract. But if you have a company with a photographer on staff, the employment contract would typically specify that the company owns the copyright to images taken in the course of work.
It is 5D because of following progression:
3D = spatial dimensions (space)
4D = single timeline in space
5D = all possible timelines (3D of space plus 2D of time)

The game is 5D because you don't only move through time, you can go back and generate multiple timelines.

I don't think it's particurly interesting or novel - they're just creating a complete ecosystem to keep customers within so they keep buying their hardware. It's not exactly vendor lockin, but it's that same vibe.
We'd love that! Although, some are trickier to support than others.
You can't "help" me understand your claim because it is baldly false!

There's an entire field that models different grids and transitioning to carbon free energy. Using fine-grained weather patterns, they optimize for various factors such as cost, by timing out deployments of renewable resources, nuclear, transmission, storage, etc. using projected costs over the next few decades.

There are huge fights in the field, particularly over nuclear, but nobody, literally nobody has said it's impossible. The debate is how much cheaper nuclear energy will make the energy transition.

So if there's some sort of "physics" that precludes the possibility of what people have already made detailed plans for, you should probably publish that result. But it seems unlikely that you have found something they haven't.

Response to your edit: you are shifting the point, without bothering to back up your initial claim. Nonetheless, you are shifting to a new false claim, that "renewables don't decrease carbon output. This is also clearly false:

https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/indicators/overview-...

The term that is used in the industry isn't "controllable," but rather "dispatchable" energy source. Europe is showing that we can get awfully close to 50% renewable, non-dispatchable energy, without really any storage and reduce carbon output. Storage, demand response, and increased transmission will likely close the rest of the gap.

Out of curiosity, how do you deal with all that bandwidth? Are you self-hosted?
Hasn't software been (almost) everybody's job for the past decade? Many millions of people use Excel on a daily / weekly basis.
Are you in Seattle? I’ve heard it said Seattle doesn’t have an architectural style, and what if has isn’t suited for the environment. It’s all imported ideas.

We passed on a house because a solid floor deck with a plugged drain had dumped water into the house, right next to a lintel. Not dealing with that.

I don’t understand how the houses with no soffits (not tiny soffits. Zero soffits) haven’t rotted out ages ago.
Cool - it looks like a well-designed board, although the timing is a bit unfortunate with the ESP32-S2 emerging as an ESP8266 replacement with USB.

A few questions:

* Should the relay have some sort of isolation, like an optocoupler?

* Is it FCC-certified?

* Like other people asked, any information on how the antenna was designed?

I like the old-school dome LEDs. And it's cool to see another project with a CH340 USB/USART bridge, even if they wouldn't need it with an ESP32-S2.
Confess your unpopular opinion: Frank Lloyd Wright is terrible.

Fallingwater was unsound from the day it was built, and despite extra-reinforcing by the contractor when built, the cantilevered balconies needed to be fixed multiple times to ensure the safety of the building.

New York's Guggenheim has a design that looks good on paper and in isolation, but in person looks shoddy, as the smooth concrete seams are not quite so smooth as in the design drawings. Additionally, Fifth Avenue in the 80's & 90's on the Upper East Side has many absolutely gorgeous Gilded Age mansions, museums and churches, which fit well with one another, while the spiral of the Guggenheim thumbs its nose and screams "Look at me!" like an obnoxious teenager.

I'll see myself out.
>Keep in mind that lifetimes have the opposite behavior of generic types. A T: Trait type parameter means "something that implements at least Trait, but might implement other things that you won't have access to", while an &'a returned borrow means "something that lives at least up to 'a, but might live less".

I don't know what you're trying to say here, but taken at face value it is wrong, and your own `fn bar` example demonstrates it being wrong. "something that lives at least up to 'a but might live less" is a contradiction.

Perhaps you meant "... but might live longer" ? If so, it would be correct, and also would not be "the opposite behavior of generic types."
usps does scan packages though...
I work in AppSec for a Very Large Company. I've worked in large companies before. These are not new trends. We have programmers who do F# and other functional programming. I would think the bigger inhibitor to functional programming is that most of the existing apps are Java or .Net so unless you are building a brand new team, you reuse the skills and technology you already have working for you.

Our devs use plenty of small open source projects. We [Security] like to recommend software that we are comfortable with, but any determination of "stacks" we leave to the actual software engineering teams. If something is pretty bad, not updated, constantly having problems, etc - we might ban it... but what's your case for using poorly engineer software given alternatives?

Not sure if mom and pop is supposed to mean commercial, but not OSS? OSS we can patch and modify if necessary. We can even PR patches back based on what our "scanners" and manual testing find.

Generally, we don't care about language, most issues are in implementation not the language, and less so in more modern languages where the creators have heard about security.

The basic type of code scanning needed for PCI and other compliance is a commodity offering and is manageable cost compared to marketing and relationship management costs needed to pursue big clients.

I am not sure the OP understands what a SOC2 report says/does. It talks about pretty high level controls and practices. You certify an app/service, not a stack. If you scan and fix your bugs and have a proactive security training, it doesn't care about how you do it. There is no golden stack that will help you pass a SOC2. You may be able to make your life easier with certain services/SaaS, but the issues come up in your practices and in the actual code implemented. If you have bugs in procedural or functional programming, its the same problem from this perspective.

Vendor due diligence? Some companies have their own questions, there are also agreed standards for these that some companies opt into. I am not sure why a big company should risk their bottom line on something unproven or that isn't ready for prime-time. It's like getting an inspection when you buy a house. In the same way, your org can improve and make improvements. This is no different then adding in features some customer wants in order to win your business.

I don't understand the ultimate point, people who build functional apps shouldn't have to care about security? It's just another non-functional requirement that helps you win a broad audience. It's the same argument that says government should regulate this or that, that financial advisers shouldn't need to act as fiduciaries. It's the cost of doing business.

Maybe the OP has some weird experiences where auditors jumped on functional programming as an issue to justify not doing more work or make their lives easier, but I don't think this is something that is a commonly held belief across audit and security (if people even know what functional programming is).
What kind of dirt is your soil?
>> portion sizes are gigantic

If anybody in the US thinks like you, we shouldn't have a problem with weight. After my dad passed away from a massive stroke, my revelation is that to combat obesity "you could eat most food, in reasonable amount, exercise wisely". I say most because for people with pre-existing conditions, some kind of food you are to avoid.

I'm tired of all of the diet tricks out there. At some point, my weight is going back up again. But, for the last year or so, I eat less meat/dairy and more of the veggie/tofu. I lost 10 lbs and still maintain that weight even though I did not skip or fast any meal. I reckon that if I reduce my intake, I could easily lose another 5 lbs. My family doctor approves!

There is a very unhealthy mentality in the US that exercise is the cure for obesity. It's easy to point out the flaw in this with simple math: count how many calories you burn running 3 miles or doing power lift, then compare to that of what you get from 2 slides of pizza or a big mac and you know what I mean. With our excessive food portion, you would need to run a marathon a day to keep up with the calories you take in.

Totally this, I get having ads injected into the home timeline(gotta keep the lights on!), but inundating people's feeds with 'publisher's stories' showing them news that is blatantly false/overly negative/polarizing and just not wanted for a vast majority of people.
But isn't that only happening because of FB allowing disinformation to spread so easily?
Okay, I've now paid my water bill.
Unlike the Wayback Machine, Archive.is for example does not censor & remove certain pages because of "hate-speech" and other motives that are more or less political.

Shame really, but i guess compromises are necessary to stay in "business", even though an internet archive should be exactly that, updated but never removed.
>The rolling upgrade cycle for software and games is running afoul of our assumptions about what you get when you pay for a product.

>With RL, customers have lost Linux support and are now losing the ability to opt-out of the EGS.

What should people assume when they buy a game that is more or less entirely multiplayer online? As an example, I paid $20 for Rocket League 2 years ago. Does that mean I get to play it online, in perpetuity, without anything changing? Probably not.
Because the alternative to the nuclear plants that have shut down has reliably been ramping up fossil fuels. Note that nuclear has the longest of power up/down cycles, so it's mostly practical for providing the base load. I.e. you cannot practically replace nuclear with solar, as its home turf is night time.
Thanks for that info Ted. Anyway, the timing seems like too much coincidence. I didn't want to imply that namecheap was at fault here, I don't really know how the domain lookups are implemented.
From the surname of the implementor.
French drains are not permanent! My dad had to replace one that was going on 20, and the guy who replaced it told him not to count on more than 10 years. There was a sump involved, which might shorten the life, but they are a temporary solution.
I was confused by this article because the 3DS has been unavailable for months now (except for random editions from Amazon sellers for above MSRP).

The main change seems to be them removing the 3DS page from the Nintendo website? My impression was that they stopped making them long ago and were only making new versions of the 2DS (which kind of defeats the entire purpose of the device).

They also don't make enough Switch consoles to meet demand, and they don't update basic things with their software (friend codes really?)

I'm not sure what the culture is like at Nintendo, but there's a lot of low hanging fruit that would make things a lot better (and make them a lot more money at the same time).
- wind turbines have a 20 years lifespan, after which the blades are buried and forgotten, and will stay there forever

Nuclear power plants have a lifespan of about 50 years, after which the reactor and other parts will be radioactive. This waste must be buried, will be forgotten and will remain there forever.
They're standard for deployment, too.
Taking Notes on Our Feelings – “Affective Note Taking”
You're right! Didn't think about it much before posting.
I use the bookmark manager that is built-in to Firefox. I also use a browser extension that checks for dead bookmarks and redirects in order to update them for me.

I try to keep them organized and tidy in a hierarchy. I bookmark any website I find useful so I don't have to use search engines unnecessarily and most of my websites autocomplete within a few keystrokes.

In summary, I am happy with the bookmark manager. In the future I would like to switch to a plaintext format, perhaps like org-mode if I can get it integrated with the browser. The reason I want this is so I can put that file up on my website to share with others.
1,2,3 are maintenance

4 is unavoidable

5 is maintenance

6,7,8,9 are not PG&E

10 is "bad management"? Sure, that's a root cause, though a massively vague one.

11 is not PG&E

So yes if you're concerned about external problems then there are things you can mention. I'd never argue that housing location and fire management and climate aren't factors! But in a discussion of what PG&E did wrong it's basically all maintenance.
It damn well should. Baut and switch is not ok

Eloquently put, thank you. I happen to be a left-wing libertarian - when it comes to preference for utopian projects that is - and that informs my opinion of "the general direction things should go in", if you like. I like to make the distinction between left and right-wing libertarianism wherever possible.

When you look up on Wikipedia, you'll even find that "libertarianism originated as a form of left-wing politics such as anti-authoritarian and anti-state socialists like anarchists, especially social anarchists, but more generally libertarian communists/Marxists and libertarian socialists."

Another quick search, and you'll find that:

> Right-libertarianism, also known as libertarian capitalism or right-wing libertarianism, is a political philosophy and type of libertarianism that supports capitalist property rights and defends market distribution of natural resources and private property. The term right-libertarianism is used to distinguish this class of views on the nature of property and capital from left-libertarianism, a type of libertarianism that combines self-ownership with an egalitarian approach to natural resources. In contrast to socialist libertarianism, right-libertarianism supports free-market capitalism. Like most forms of libertarianism, it supports civil liberties, especially natural law, negative rights and a major reversal of the modern welfare state.

So I do think it's right to make the distinction between left-wing and right-wing libertarianism.
I appreciate your desire to evangelize a thing you believe in. I am not really asking about the benefit of a ketogenic diet, I am asking specifically about the ways in which a Carnivore diet increases the benefits of ketosis as opposed to just a normal Ketogenic diet. The book you linked seemed to be in advocacy of dietary fat, which both Ketogenic and Carnivore diets both agree with. That is again not really what I'm asking.

I'm also not really sure why I would donate money to a cause I do not believe in/that is not backed by science.
In my understanding of DOD, I'm not sure there really is much of a basis that can be explored in a general way, beyond just adapting to whatever platform you are ultimately targeting. "The data" is supreme (this, along with an information theoretic understanding of "data," should be a hint that something is rotten in the state of DODmark; EDIT: this is extremely dismissive, which is not my intention, and I think DOD makes total sense in combination with other design approaches) and so the programmer tweaks representations of the data to best fit the platform she's working with. Thus DOD would have different positions for x86 or AArch64 or GLSL. DOD seems like a map of constraints x capabilities to strategies. For example, use struct-of-arrays when you need to access sequential elements repeatedly in a von Neumann system with CPU cache. A GPU-based solution might be entirely different, involving weird zipping and index mapping or something. The DOD approach (if it can be called that) seems undecidable when considering how an FPGA might be configured to solve this (or any) problem.

Maybe I'm way off-base, and if so, please correct me. Everything I've seen with DOD (from its inception years ago) seems in line with it, though.
Man, I'd love to be able to get a really high resolution print of this framed so I can hang it in my living room.
Not the parent but I specifically transferred away from namecheap because you attempted to increase my renewal on a .club domain by 15x, claiming my previously-registered domain was now a premium domain. Google Domains charged me the regular price.

Ok, if it's not a matter of quantity, surely it's indisputable that Obama normalized the idea that if Congress "fails to act" it's completely fair game to break the rules and legislate from the oval office.

If you are mixing it yourself, the waterproofing stuff (SikaLatex here in France) will avoid this, make it easier to work with and stronger after it cures.
I think perardi is referring to how the touchscreen gimmick of the Wii U wasn't as successful as it was on the DS and 3DS, not to any problems with the emulation.
You can think of it like a generic type parameter. The <'a> is essentially saying "for some lifetime 'a...", and then we refer to that lifetime elsewhere to bind those usages together
Namecheap is one of the best registrars ever. I am constantly transferring domains there because they're just so much better than the others.
Definitely true for my domain, mechanical engineering. Enough reviews and bugs will be found and corrected.
Each package owner probably knows much better about the dependencies than the "OS". Save for a handful of Python packages that have extra-Python OS dependencies, relying upon the explicit versions called out by the package owner is generally more reliable.
Ask HN: Why is LinkedIn so broken?
I wrote a little script in python which uses selenium to unfollow everyone on LinkedIn. After a certain amount of unfollows, LinkedIn stopped showing me the people that I follow. The total number of people that I follow remains ~50, but the page doesn't return any more results. I should be able to see those 50 people in my follow list (so I can click unfollow button). Something this simple shouldn't be broken.

Because there's not very much of it. The whole reason why nuclear is good is that fission of uranium has a much greater energy density than combustion of hydrocarbons.

And crucially this waste is solid and can be buried underground. Unlike carbon dioxide which is more or less impossible to store.
