I agree and the timing was pretty poor for that game. Windows Vista was JUST out the door and the graphics card drivers were downright terrible at the time, often crashing. Reason being Vista used a completely new driver model (WDDM).

I recall HGL also had some unfortunate memory leak issues.

In general I think that game was largely hamstrung by performance issues for one reason or another.

The idea of a FPS Action RPG like that wa as simple as it was brilliant. I've wondered why it hadn't been done before and still hasn't quite been done again. Games like Dark Souls exist but I don't think they're quite the same. Rumor is Diablo IV was going to go there but Blizzard later changed their mind, rather opting for a traditional isometric view. I think they lose a lot of immersion doing that. Imagine sneaking through damp, dark cellars and have demons lurk around the corners, and everything built upon a solid itemization system and replayability with randomized maps.

This is absolutely not correct. It's correct to say that Fleishman and Pons shat the bed for everybody when their University's PR had a press release before a paper had been accepted.

It's not correct to say that all research into cold fusion (LENR as it's called now) is psuedoscience.

However, were I a professor, anybody who proposed LENR research to me would get a lecture: hey, there may be some interesting science in there, but you're gonna have to work harder than anybody else in the room to get people to trust your results. Some scientists don't mind signing up for spending 30 years proving their case, others want faster results, in which case you should find areas of research that are more likely to lead to accepted publications.

There is a lot of wind and road noise on the highway - it's not as well-isolated as comparable luxury sports cars (BMW, Audi, etc.) No, this isn't an illusion due to the lack of engine noise, the car needs more acoustic insulation.

The BLE phone-as-key works about 95% of the time. Not good enough.

Some parts of the car feel cheap and insubstantial - the doors and front trunk, notably.

These are minor complaints. I agree that it is by far the best all-around everyday car available today. Unless you want a purpose-built 2-seater sports car or convertible, need the cargo capacity or ground clearance of an SUV/truck, or have some other special requirement, the Model 3/Y is a far superior car to everything else on the market.
If anything is being “reskinned” it is Webkit, the rendering engine, not Safari the browser. Webkit is by far superior choice on anything macOS/iOS related because of performance and energy use.

Despite what people say, main problem with hydrogen (when compared to other energy storage/sources) is not efficiency or safety, but overall cost. What drives the energy market is $/watt for a given solution, not raw efficiencies.

That said, cheap hydrogen production is an active research area. Some ideas under research include hydrogen producing bacteria and analogs to photosynthesis. Some methods, even appear to be nearly perfectly efficient [1]. Now could hydrogen become a major source of power in 10 years? Probably not, as there are lots of costly problems to overcome - not just in production. Will it be in the distant future? Probably, given that it's the most abundant element in the universe, the power source of most stars, the easiest element to do fusion with - that it's hard to fathom us becoming a successful space faring civilization without it...

While Atlantropa is a silly idea, and lowering the level of the Mediterranean Sea is an invitation of disaster, the current through the strait of Gibraltar is quite substantially powerful, and most of the energy involved is currently dissipated. Without damming the strait or lowering the level of the Mediterranean, and with limited disruption to the ecosystem an enormous amount of stable hydropower could be generated there. The geography of the Mediterranean basin is really an incredible opportunity, that concentrates the Sun’s energy throughout the whole basin at the Strait.

Their reputation has indeed hurt them — at least in one instance.
>electric vehicles have far fewer moving parts than IC vehicles

Not true. You still have the suspention system which has a lot of moving parts. there are also the moving parts of the brakes. Then the steering system. In theory you don't need a transmission, but in practice you do.

There are a few less moving parts, but not substantially less. The moving parts you lose are mostly in a controlled environment with plenty of lubrication and no dirt (though there are other acid combustion byproducts).

> I can't recall a time that I've used a cordless drill and thought to myself, "man, this thing would be so much better if it were powered by a two-stroke motor".

I have a cordless chainsaw and weed whip. Both would be better with an IC engine. Batteries are much heavier than gas, and this is really noticeable when using them for a while. These are new Dewalt 60 volt systems, not some old technology. Of course there are advantages to battery - I won't got back to gas, like I would have 20 years ago when I first used a battery weed whip. I like the low noise and there is plenty of power. However the gas engine would be lighter.

I've also seen gas powered drills and I'm sure that the same applies, batteries are good, but the extra weight to get the same power is a factor. Most drills are used indoors of course so gas was never a real option and that is why battery drills become popular as soon as they worked at all.

That we have made progress 'over here' doesn't discount the risk 'over there'.

Also, the advantages of 'farming tech' may not be of the same scale as 'climate change'.

Specifically 'forest fires' are a pop culture issue, we're not ever going to be threatened by them.

Regular temperature increases will likely yield 'systematic problems' that go far, far beyond 'possibly more fires' but the issues is different because of the 'risk profile' and the 'existential' nature of climate change. It's not like 'a chemical in some food products' we can get rid of. It's an issue that affects 'everything' with potential catastrophic outcomes at the riskier end of the scale.

All of that said I would much more prefer 'Mr. Face' Governor to be investing more heavily in solutions rather than just happy legislation.

That impression is correct; the precedent is here (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubby,_Inc._v._CompuServe_Inc.).

A lot of people don't really seem to understand that about S. 230- services that exist basically to pass messages have never needed the protection and that won't change. The best example outside of messaging services is probably content delivery networks, and I'll pick on CloudFlare because they're a great example.

As long as CloudFlare is fine with just taking money and serving content, no matter whose it is, they have the legal immunity as intended. As soon as they decide (on a whim) to deny service based on content, as they did a while back, that legal immunity vanishes.
It would be catastrophic to their business to make that decision (especially considering everything else CloudFlare hosts), and that's the point.

It's also very interesting considering that the changes also appear to affect Patreon (and similar) and, perhaps a bigger deal, PayPal, since it's an interactive computer service used to fund the creation of information (among other things). In fact, I think that's an even bigger deal, because it's not necessarily traditional platforms banning certain people that causes them to be denied a platform these days, it's the inability of them to get funding in a way that isn't "send cash to this PO Box".

> You'd think hackers would understand that rules are for show.

I may be misinterpreting your wording here (my apologies if I am), but I'd assume the opposite. I'd think people who operate in a realm where text becomes action executed by a machine designed wholly around faithful, reliable execution of text fed to it would come to learn the reality-defining power of rules.
Honestly not as big of a deal as many make it out to be. With EVs, the cars can be constantly charging when stopped. Even for longer trips, the newer, faster chargers can do 180 miles of charge in 15 minutes. This, combined with being able to charge virtually any time the car is stopped, can make electric cars even more convenient when it comes to filling up.

Also, having your car at 100% at the start of any day more than makes up for those rare occasions when you're going on a 500+ mile road trip.
Stop fires? No. In the long term it's meant to address the conditions to lead to the size and severity of fires we're seeing today.

GitHub and Azure for sure are the best services from MS.
But while the former is easy to use, and I would say the lowest friction for getting developers building and deploying, I think AWS is easier for developers than Azure.
Look at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/common/storag... and see the power Azure offers, it's impressive, but it's also confusing. AWS is simpler and still effective.

I think a lot of Azure fast growth was migrating existing corporate IT workloads. These are Windows servers, SQL Server databases, etc and Azure is a great place for those.

But if you are building a new app, I am not quite sure why you would choose Azure unless you are afraid of Amazon.

Just got the HPL2 engine from TDD to build on Linux/aarch64 right up until it needs to link against the FBX SDK. Only real PITA was getting Newton on ARM going. After that it was a few cmake hacks in HPL2, and a few symlinks in the lib/linux directory of the dependencies archive.

Looks like the culprits are "MeshLoaderFBX.cpp" and "LowLevelResourcesSDL.cpp" - any workarounds for FBX SDK would need to rework and/or replace those.
For sure -- hopefully they're making the input and brain interfaces modular, opening the possibility of upgrades as things get better.
Thanks for your response and agreement. No comments on bill but I'd like to respond to this:
>It is safe to begin with the framework and work within its constraints to achieve a relatively predictable result. However, that also averts any risk inherent to failures along processes that discover novel relationships, test outcomes, compare against known outcomes.

I'm abstracting this to a question about creative process and whether you should use a conventional process or try something new. I think this depends on the organization the process exists in - the answer could be both or either.

You may find the book "Teeming" that speaks to anthropology and organizational evolution interesting as it speaks to creating organizations that have both structure and fluidity.
The experience with js-heavy sites even on a very capable desktop is still negative. Too much js introduces bugs, latency, and lack of stability. A page like that will sometimes jump around and resize for no apparent reason.

Making wikipedia noticeably js-heavy would definitely ruin the experience.
Not really.

Again, it's kind of stuck in the middle: energy density by volume sucks compared to hydrocarbons, and if it isn't cryogenic, it really sucks, and cryo is expensive. Transporting fuel by truck is volume limited, not weight limited.

If we're comparing to batteries, then... ok, but you kinda only have to move the batteries once, and then you can either recharge on site with solar or connect to grid. With hydrogen, you have to keep bringing it, and you may as well have hydrocarbons at that point.

The lack of carbon emissions on-site is what makes it tempting, but it's just easier to work around this problem in various ways than it is to pay the hydrogen penalty on an ongoing basis. To a first approximation, all commercial hydrogen is cracked off of methane anyway, and electrolysis is a pretty inefficient way to use renewable electricity, so even that just displaces emissions to fossil fuel plants unless none of those exist anymore.
Doesn't need to be equally fast. If you roadtrip a lot, it matters. But if you charge almost exclusively at home, then the number of times you have to recharge on a strict schedule is quite limited. The time savings from never going to the gas station is pretty significant compared with taking a half hour to recharge when you're on a long trip.

Obsidian.md is doing them pretty well in plaintext. It has scaling issues, but think they come in a couple orders of magnitude above the "toy" threshold you mention. It might suffer a bit for a well-populated Zettelkasten until they optimize more, but for most users it'd be fine. I think a lot of the scaling issue was in the link graph analysis, and they've been steadily working on that.

To your point, I'm sure it caches a fair amount of that analysis in its .obsidian directory, but to mine, it can still calculate them from scratch on a new (or newly synced) note set. It does so invisibly the first time it sees the Vault (or the new file in the Vault directory, if you add it from elsewhere), so it's still portable, just with an indexing phase if you want to show a backlink or graph pane.

The important thing for me is that most other plaintext notes editors support the forward [[links]] that are the only real "source" data. The implied backlink analysis is just that, results of an analysis. It'd be nice for the cache to be portable, but not necessary.

Transclusion is where I'd agree with you, since that actually appears in the notes themselves rather than as part of an active sidebar. You're more or less stuck with proprietary software that knows how to look for anchors and render their targets inline, at least until/unless we get a generic format for it. But so far that's been more a reason I can't have transclusion yet than a reason why I'd move off plaintext notes in a directory.
