You have support for Korean and Japanese and Hebrew. How about the rest of unicode? My guess is you have a static or fixed size texture atlas. To put all 140k glyphs of unicode in a single texture atlas would require a 12k by 12k texture assuming 32x32 pixel glyphs. Plenty of devices don't support textures of that size and you'd be limited to just that size of font. Handling this in an actually "all of unicode" way so a user can read documents and type names in all the languages etc ("use facing apps") is not something Dear ImGUI as currently designed can handle AFAIK. It's not just a PR waiting to be written, it would be a large change.

There are other issues with ImGUI paradigm as well. How does it handle accessibility for example. With OS level widgets the OS itself can read the content and deal with accessibility. Same with HTML. But with entirely internal data and just a list of GPU commands that's a huge open issue.

I'm a HUGE fan of Dear ImGUI and have donated $$$$ to it. I think it's awesome. I think there is lots of room and inspiration to be had from Dear ImGUI for making it easier to make UIs. I've written articles on it (https://games.greggman.com/game/imgui-future/) But I'm not blind to its current limits

> Intel has clearly been caught out by its inability to get 10nm - which I understand was overambitious - to work and pretty much everything else follows on from there.

It's more than process node. Zen 3 now has superior IPC as well; the now unqualified performance lead of AMD devices happens at lower frequency. The process node problem is just the most visible and embarrassing problem Intel has. It is not the only problem. Intel's 10th gen is also still well behind the curve wrt side channel attacks. That gap will persist until Rocket Lake appears.

The rot at Intel is old and runs deep.

The one area that Intel has managed to maintain superiority is quality. Intel is still the thing to buy if you want minimum glitches.

> Requiring frequent "calibration" printouts that use vast amounts of ink

I use my personal printer once every 2 months, on average, and every single time it prints the calibration page.

It would make much more sense from a UX point of view if it just asked if I want to calibrate instead of forcing me to waste ink, paper, time and patience in the process.

Many people have difficulty distinguishing between what they enjoy, and what benefits humanity.

For example, a group of children might derive pleasure from singling out and making fun of a classmate. That they enjoy behaving so doesn't mean it improves their school.

There are online communities that service humanity's worst instincts. It would be nice if people who get off on sites like that were able to recognize that their enjoyment doesn't make the sites a net benefit to everyone else.

Yes, in theory. In reality, the premise is that they're looking for attacks in protocols that aren't encrypted, which is part of the reason the approach doesn't make much sense anymore --- the signatures are all tuned for attacks that only really matter in internal networks, and internal networks are already insecure.

Intel now and 10 years ago are not that different. If not a success of TSMC with EUV process, Intel would not be in a such troubled spot. Few years ago a reasonable assumption in the industry was that EUV would not be production-ready for quite some years. So Intel made a reasonable bet that they would be better with pushing existing technologies further.

But then a company in The Netherlands solved the extreme ultraviolet generation and optics problem and Intel failed to push their existing process to 10nm allowing TSMC and Samsung to overtake it as a technology leader. And Intel now has to deal with a situation that it had no experience for the last 40 years when the company was a technology leader.

This is true. You can always try to convince people but if you're not string puller, you're in mercy of listeners. If they fix on something (e.g.profit, own promotion), your story should be aligned to that(their KPI). Then only you can have hope.

Thanks for that excerpt. The part I found most terrifying is that not only was the patient given no real treatment, but "Eight years passed without...neurological follow-up", meaning even an examination to see what his status was.
This use case is part of why I'm so disappointed in some python 3 changes. 2 was definitely more suitable for a newcomer experimenting in a REPL by virtue of its greater simplicity and intuitiveness.
A global pandemic is a pretty big deal, yet the US is bitterly divided over it. Maybe unity helps deal with big events like world wars rather than world wars causing unity. And disunity in the face of catastrophic events is what tears societies apart.
True, but we (humans) are always aspiring to be better, even if things aren't broken per se. My point was that we don't always know what we can't do, so when do we stop trying?
Then there's the fallacy of composition. Each of us may be powerless as individuals to make a change, like political or social reform, but collectively we often can.
One of the other issues to keep in mind is the actual amount of light output by the point source. Some SMD LEDs output a non trivial amount of light in a very small area - if you put black electrical tape, the high power density (over a very small area) can cause the tape to start smoking and burning.

A friend had a Razer Phone 2 which melted its camera lens and would cause burns if you covered the LED while it was on. While I'm sure that particular case may have been a faulty device/faulty design,

I'd think that to make a brighter LED flash, you'd need more than one LED source. While this would be fine for general illumination, perhaps if they were not tightly coupled together some odd shadows could result. And it'd look kind of funny to some.

As for the actual amount of heat output by a relatively bright LED, it should only add about a watt or two to the budget at most, which I'd say is manageable given current LED flash implementations aren't really thermally managed or coupled with the device's internal heat sink.
I don't know, but I can tell you why it won't get better. Anyone smart enough to get promoted at Intel is smart enough to move to Apple and make 50% more. I know because I did that. The ones I know left at INTC tell me that financial engineering is off the charts.

One could have alarms for low/high temp/RH to alert the beekeper when the colony is threatened. Also maybe a weight sensor so they know how much honey there is in the hive. I'm not a beekeper so not entirely sure what they'd want. Anti theft beacons can be easily disabled, especially LoRaWAN and SigFox which need a bigger antenna.
My grandfather was a beekeeper in Montana and swore by spotted napweed honey. Of course spotted napweed is invasive and should be ripped out when found outside of its native Europe.

It's probably also a great way to avoid head-to-head competition.

Apple marketing always reminded me of how for decades, Rolls-Royce advertisements never would explicitly say things like the engine horsepower and displacement-- just "ample."

Now it will be that much easier to dodge performance questions. "Our machines are not built to run (mainstream software or game), so of course the performance is sketchy in the emulation penalty box. Just run the seven pieces of native MacOS software and it really flies."
Of course, the hazard is that you then have to deal with offering a value proposition that's still appealing after adjusting for your target userbase having to give up all the plugins and tweaks they configured into their editors.

How did you manage that? Graduate degree in the field? I dont have a bachelors degree so thats probably the biggest hurdle for me (and I've run the number several times I cant afford to go back).

Indeed. Which begs the question. Why would Apple pay AMD or Intel when you just as easily emulate.
Pay disparity is something that you’ve gotta fix early on. If you wait until the results of losing top level talent are finally being felt by everyone, then chances are your business might not have enough cash left to rectify the problem.

wgpu and bgfx might be good options. Creative coding frameworks might be work looking at also (Processing, Cinder, Three.js, etc). Also lightweight "engines" like Sokol, Oryol, Raylib and Macroquad might be good options. There are a lot of options just not well known. Someone wanting the perfect high level but not too low level graphics API, where high and low are kind of arbitrary (don't want an engine, no or minimal boilerplate, most work done with code instead of a editor/gui, etc) is a common theme.
The bad reputation of Greyhound bewilders me. I've taken it from NYC to Baltimore (5 or so times that trip), Columbus, and somewhere I forget in NJ. The buses are never dirty, never had an issue with passengers, there are usually outlets to use, and there's free wifi albeit with some services like video streaming blocked. I always found it a good value for the price and it remains my go-to bus service. Maybe crazy things just happen on busses sometimes, Greyhound picked up some cultural momentum for being associated with this through coincidence or more people using it than competitors, and there are 1000 people who had a good ride and didn't post about it for every 1 person with a weird story.
In my experience knowing when to refactor and when to not is a main distinguishing factor for a senior vs junior role but seniors generally account for that in their planning and knowing when to push some additional time to prune the code. Similarly identifying when over-engineering is occurring is the flip side of that coin. One is preventative and one is reactive but they are both important.
We know very little about how the body as a whole functions, especially from a systems perspective. Sure doctors can set bones and give you drugs that are in many cases the physiological equivalent of a sledgehammer, but try asking them what the mechanism of action is of those drugs, or you have Crohn’s or rheumatoid arthritis or insomnia or pinched nerve pain in your back. They have no effing idea.
But for certain businesses, there is a case to be made for not serving these kinds of customers.

> No, he did not. The meaning of a technique not being scalable is that while it does work for small instances it does not for large ones.

I see, so a complete and correct multiprocessing operating system running on unreliable hardware is a "small instance" according to you. This is the sophistry I promised to dismiss. Consider it done.

> There are now complexity theory results that show that decomposition cannot always work.

Obviously decomposition can't always work. Primitives can't be decomposed by definition. Yet another trivial truth.

>It's not a constraint as much as saying that the claim you have a technique that can more effectively yield programs that we already know how to get more-or-less right and the claim you have a technique that can effectively, feasibly and scalably produce programs that are otherwise very hard to get right are two very different claims. It's like the difference between improving a polynomial algorithm by a constant and finding a polynomial algorithm for NP-complete problems. The first might get you published; the second will make you world-famous.

This word-salad has nothing to do with anything I've written.

> The proof is relevant because it precisely proves that your claim, as stated, is, in fact, false. Your claim might be made about "common cases" etc., but that would require a much more careful wording, as well as a careful empirical study rather than insistence.

This is more interesting, but also misleading. Obviously every single program ever written falls within the class of "common cases," since, asymptotically speaking, very nearly all program texts have never been written, let alone studied. Look ma, I can do sophistry too!

> "come back to life" are plainly uncharitable phraseology

There are many meanings to the phrase "come back to life". For example, my car "coughs into life" when I start it, and "comes alive" when I floor it, though nobody would infer it is actually alive. If someone "steps lively" that doesn't mean they are otherwise dead. A "live wire" isn't expected to be living, and also a person can be called a "live wire" meaning they're very engaging.

To "come back to life" in this context appears to mean simply that the person becomes animated and responsive to his surroundings. It's a phrase that would never occur to me to be offended by.
Still good thing about kitchen is fixed menu (either small or big). Sadly today's agile software-world, nobody works hard to know customers and fix deliveries. It is like, you'r running italian restarunt. But if someone wants indian curries, you will run to market, will buy ingredients, learn recipes and deliver before customer leaves.

So Final result -

- you delivered food which looks like Indian cuisine but doesnt taste like one.

- now your customer is unhappy

- so your boss is unhappy

- you're tired after doing long circus but you feel good as you learn little bit about Indin cuisine.

- Now let kitchen die (anyway your boss is not happy) and start applying Indian restarunts saying you can also cook Italian

- Mean while in next day, you will do same circus for Japaneses cuisine

- Now you will start applying Japanese restarunts also, saying you can cook Indian and Italian
>Wait, what? Instead of using specialized hardware... you can use an Nvidia GPU (specialized hardware)?

> there is no ability to tune the difficulty

FWIW, this isn't actually true; you just need to manually apply the gameplay changes that a difficulty setting would normally affect. The two main one's I'd recommend are increasing the number of embark points (in init/world_gen.txt#EMBARK_POINTS) so you can buy more starting resources, and increasing dwarves' speed (in raw/objects/creature_standard.txt#CREATURE:DWARF#APPLY_CREATURE_VARIATION:STANDARD_<x>_GAITS), which just generally makes everything much easier, including increasing your fort's economic productivity to give you better ability to absorb any disaster that do happen.

Your overall point stands though; we proudly call it a learning curve^Wcliff^Woverhang for good reason.
Back in early 2000s Charlie was a beat reporter for The Inquirer. The Inquirer was written like a British tabloid (in fact they were split from The Register.)

As for his grudge, it probably stem from Intel's underhanded tactics. AMD had the Athlon XP that buried Intel's Pentium 4 in every measure.

Intel made some very backhanded and immoral moves-
* Bribed Dell to not use AMD
* Threatened Taiwanese mobo manufacturers to not build Athlon mobo by withholding North bridge chips
* Blackmailed the said manufacturers to not even show up for product conventions held by AMD
* Forced RAMBUS down everyone's throat until Athlon forced them to release the i815 chipset (finally supports DDR1!)

As a result AMD never managed to grow their revenue to a level that can sustain their R&D. When the Intel's Core arch arrived 4 years later it was over for AMD.

The Inquirer had a lot of contacts that suffered greatly, and it must have left quite an impression on Charlie. I remember that one of his reports was that during a trade show, a Taiwanese mobo rep had to meet Charlie in secret in a hotel room to talk about AMD, in fear of Intel catching wind and retaliate.

BTW Charlie also has a grudge against Nvidia for similar reasons, but Nvidia has been competent enough for the last decade that Charlie couldn't find anything to complain about.
