TV, especially broadcast TV, is not some high art form. It's a way to pass the hour or two before bed in exchange for watching some ads. People like the shows to keep going because it's not the storylines that pull them in, it's getting to live in this world that they like. So those seasons don't get replayed as much on streaming; so what.

The size is unbelievable to be honest. The 12MW system when constructed will be taller than the Eiffel Tower I believe, and that is the section above water, there will be 20-50m in water then considerable length piled into the ground.

Fair enough. I just think certain people's personal Overton windows have become remarkably narrow.
The problem with this is that the per-episode cost of a 1-2 show terminal microseason is much higher than the normal per episode cost, because you've got to pay people to come back for it and give up the opportunity for other work (or work around their replacement work, which also has costs.)
> I guess it shows that novelty is probably what drives people to the platform and gets new subscribers.

It assumes that novelty is what drives people to the platform and increases/maintains the subscriber base.

However, Netflix's evident model is not capable of falsifying this assumption. By cancelling series as soon as they plateau (not even _decline_, given reporting (https://www.wired.com/story/why-netflix-keeps-canceling-show...) of its production cost escalator), they do not generate a large library of "complete series" for later viewing.

This also puzzles me, since it contradicts Netflix's willingness to pay a pretty penny for established series like Friends. Its current show-commissioning practices seem to be incapable of generating a new generational hit like that.

I'd agree if it were a full color map, but it's a single color map, where the color is used to make the subject (ice) pop. Not to mention artic ice is indeed blue(ish), so the color does accurately represent the subject of the map.

The problem is that they don’t give them a chance to stick. One of my favorite shows, Tuca & Bertie, was released in May 2019 and canceled in July — less than three months later. By the time I’d watched it, it was already canceled. (Luckily, it’s since been picked up by Cartoon Network).

The interface to Boehm GC is that you call GC_INIT(), then you get some pointers from GC_MALLOC() and GC_REALLOC(). Nothing in ISO C requires that a function returning a pointer must guarantee that pointer remains valid forever. Which section number of any of the ISO C standards do you think Boehm GC violates?

The implementation details of the Boehm GC certainly exploit implementation-defined behavior and there's likely some undefined behavior there, too. However, those are implementation details of the library itself. If Boehm GC were written in assembly, then it could function exactly the same and ISO C would be irrelevant to its implementation.
In case of compute purpoused FPGA designs you could just have pure LUTs and internal routing blocks, and for significant increase of speed and reducing power usage math blocks like multipliers or dividers would be a big improvement to pure FPGAs. And except programming and communication interface that would be all that AMD would need to introduce FPGA based compute solutions.

The biggest issue is that a lot of GPUs are blacklisted by browser vendors to force software rendering due to bugs in the GPU drivers that might cause security or overall software reliability issues. And a lot of those GPUs are AMD GPUs. And a lot of those AMD GPUs are in MacBooks. Thus why a lot of MacBook users complain about WebGL stuff pegging their CPU and kicking in the fans.

I'm curious, when wind farms do go into the ocean bed, how does it affect the ecosystem? I'm guessing it might not be a problem since I've never read about it, but it seems like it could cause reverberating problems in the ocean which is one of our biggest natural tools in fighting climate change
Why do people like the Mandalorian? It's really just not that good. The action sequences are very low quality. The writing is fairly mundane faux-gritty tropes. Would people like it if it didn't have the star wars backdrop? Does the star wars backdrop even make that much sense?

I know this one won't bother many people but I particularly hated their depiction of the bounty hunter droid, which was orders of magnitude more competent than any other droid in the universe. Droids in star wars aren't immaculate AI like other Sci Fi. I hated that they used this as a plot point.
Writing about the finale, the NYT's (or may have been Time magazine at the time) TV critic wrote that people who watched the show through the lens of relationships between characters were generally fine with the way the show finished up. While those watching the show for the mysteries hated it, in part for the reason you say.

I can't accept anything less than "factual reporting: HIGH", so... The Guardian is out. :(
My local Amazon website customer service was also pretty good every time I had a need for it. On the other hand, the English customer support of Amazon.jp is just straight up terrible. Wanted to send back a damaged product which I had bought as new and which wasn't damaged during transportation. Sent an e-mail, asking for specific information regarding that return. Got reply lacking such information, asked again, different person answering, still unsatisfying answer...rinse and repeat. In the end, I had sent seven e-mails and got a reply from a different customer service representative every single time whose answers contradicted each other too even. Went with the reply that made the most sense and seemed the most right in the end and eventually got it returned (despite some wrong information still) and my money back.

Another thing regarding wrong information on their product pages: Reporting wrong product names/descriptions and providing sources via the website was pointless and they never fixed it. After the whole ordeal with the return, I took the opportunity to tell them directly. Was told to provide a source (URL to some official website for instance) since they need it to confirm that there is something wrong there. Gave them all the URLs which included product titles, product pictures etc but they replied that they can't "use" (whatever that means) the URL (despite saying I should link it) and I'm supposed to screenshot it, upload it and then provide a link to the upload (or send it directly I guess). Of course, after everything above and now this, I was already beyond fed up and just stopped bothering since I'm certainly not gonna do their work for them. That, in addition to a website that is just getting worse and worse and worse stopped me from buying there. No point in having a bad buying experience and also knowing that, if you ever have an issue, support is gonna be an experience that will make you want to flip any tables you see for at least a few hours.
The same reason I can’t just enjoy 10 chapters of a book. If a book only has 10 chapters, that’s great. But if the printer just decided that’s all the chapters they were willing to pay for and the story has no ending, that is completely unsatisfying. I love mini-series/limited series because I know the story is going to have a conclusion. I have no interest in investing in something new that will likely be axed with no ending when there is plenty of great content out there that I know does have a complete story, however long that happens to be.

That's true. I find that most of the "not worth it" crowd seems to be making post-fact justifications for why it's not worth it after they've already decided they don't like quarantine.

There's no reasonable evidence suggesting, for instance, that a shutdown is causing more deaths than it is preventing, and yet we continuously hear that take.

Moderates and Progressives war over small differences because they are in competition with each other, even if the type of competition is in its nature internal to the power struggles within the Democratic Party. If you can’t distinguish yourself from the pack in some small ways, it’s going to be harder for you to win elections. Taking that back to the Special Mayoral election, London Breed managed to do just that, over Mark Leno and Jane Kim who had this kind of mutual endorsement deal going on exploiting the nature of the ranked choice voting.

But it is a power struggle internal to the Democratic Party. Sure you have different people with different ideas about where to go, what to do, but overall the trajectory is largely the same, and to be frank, it isn’t a direction I like. I still don’t know if I was naïve in hitching my wagon to the Democratic Party when I came of age, if I was never really in agreement with it, or of it just left me, and I’ve been trying to figure that out. What I do know is that there’s no place for me in it anymore, but whether I was naïve before, then and now, they’re still the only game in town and the combination of Ranked-Choice Voting and Open Primaries is further cementing them both here and in localities around here. I have my ballot in front of me, and for every race below President, it is virtually indistinguishable from a Democratic primary ballot because that is in effect what our General elections around here have become, a question of whose career do you want to advance or maintain under the auspices of this particular party banner?

Since nobody has mentioned anything of the like in this comment chain, I’m forced to conclude you’re making certain assumptions about me and insinuating something unsavory there. Maybe my conclusion is wrong, you tell me. Unfortunately for you, that’s never been something I gave a crap about. I’m not some bloody transplant weirded out by the Castro, I grew up in the Castro, and for the moment it is still my home.

You're challenging a perspective that I don't hold. I want to avoid talking past each other.

I think one can appreciate that the FinFisher group has done terrible things and is working against a free, democratic society. I do not really want to defend them, so I think it's important to say that up front. I took aim at the idea that "they must also be anti-semites because they specifically criticized Israel." I do not want the criticism of Israel to be the bar we set for the anti-semitism accusation.
This has been going on for quite some time, and I would be embarrassed if I were a part of Twitter's engineering team.

I think the biggest issue: there's more money behind "successful" US series compared to "successful" British. When a show gets big, more money is dumped on it. The issue with that goes beyond the standard creative problems that occur, it's also the management. When a show starts having budgets in the millions upon millions per episode, there are more eyes and thus, voices involved in the process that originally ignored said show when it was a "nobody". Eyes and voices that any logical person knows should be blind folded and gagged from having any sort of creative to artistic opinion. But, because their signatures are on the cheques, their word becomes law. From what I understand (please correct me if I'm wrong), that doesn't happen all that much with British shows as there's such a finite overall production budget and personnel to that market demographic compared to the US. There's budget increases to good shows, but it's no where near as drastic as what may happen to an American one.

Short series/seasons can limit what you can do. Which means by show 8, you know there will be a falling out that reaches climax at show 10.. cliff hanger.

Shows like glee hung on too long but it gave them space to make unexpected story lines... split the season in two..

It's money not controlled by any single government or entity. It can be exchanged almost as easily as cash. If you don't see the use in that, then good for you, your needs must be met by the existing financial services.

Personally, I used it to buy electronics in Japan, worked well. Also used it to sell my VR headset in person, because Paypal and our banks didn't allow the transfer. I use it to tip and donate to various online creators with no fuss. It's really quite simple, no need to overthink it.

Sure, maybe one day the price will crash or the peg fail, but for most intents and purposes it works fine. Monitoring crypto prices and fundamentals is not so bad compared with traditional finance folks having to read through hundreds of all-caps tweets to know how much value the USD will lose this month, or sifting through reddit WSB troll posts to know which stock to buy.

As an American, I agree. I would love to see more forethought go into the planning of series in the US. Plot it out for 1, 2 or 3 seasons of, say, 4 - 6 episodes and then just stop.
