True. As sibling noted below it sounds like there's no additional instructions used here.
Good point about private insurance. Market forces might sort that one out. The other coin is public.

FEMA bails out people who built in risky storm and flood zones like New Orleans. At the very least, I feel FEMA should be a one-time thing, if you insist on rebuilding in the same place, the government shouldn't be there for you again next flood.
There's a little button that looks like a globe in the lower right corner. When it was introduced, it used to be the default, but apparently isn't anymore. If you toggle it once, Google will remember your preference, so for a lot of people, when they zoom out they get a globe without manually switching over every session.

Of course, rendering a globe in WebGL or whatever and drawing it on a 2D screen is still a projection, and it still introduces distortions in shapes and areas, but the 3D-ness of it gives your brain the cues it needs to "correct" the distortions.
Liberals and conservatives will rarely condemn the violence of their pet terrorists. As far as violence is concerned, that's the problem with conservatives and liberals. They generally lend tacit support to violence against people they dislike. All with a wink, wink and a nudge, nudge.

That's why we end up with dead police who walk into ambushes, dead black guys who make the mistake of relaxing in their own apartments when lady cops burst in guns blazing, burned stores, dead little old ladies who go to bible studies while black, and dead walmart shoppers who made the mistake of being minority while looking for a San Antonio Spurs dart board at the wrong time.

Extremists are just dangerous people. We should really be bringing the hammer against all these groups wherever we find them, but again, they are protected by their patrons. So they walk the streets tatted and masked up waving around AR's because they know their benefactors will not allow our counter-terrorism units to do what military sense would demand in a sensible world.
Broadly speaking, it would mean that you are subject to tribal laws instead of state laws. Exact details vary greatly based on what the treaty the US wrote with the exact tribe in question, and to what degree Congress has explicitly expressed its intent to ignore said treaty.
This is more a function of your successfulness and competence than whether you happen to have an incorporated business wrapping your daily operations.

A successful and competent employee has built relationships with colleagues, supervisors, and reports. He knows them, and they know him. He won't be asked to subjugate his principles to the company in an inappropriate way, in part because others know that he will go above and beyond within his principles to do well for the company.

For a business owner, the exact same thing, just replace colleagues et al with customers, suppliers, shareholders, and other partners.

On the other hand, a weak business and/or business owner will be very vulnerable to principle-based compromise. Out of the need to keep customers, suppliers, et al happy, he is subject to whim and every demand. Walking away from his business means the collapse of his reputation, failing his employees, and failing his family. He is no more free than your average entry level employee.
Yeah, Steam seems even more dead on macOS at this point.

On the other hand, there are probably more PC game ports to iOS than there ever were to macOS, and they may run better than ever on the M1.
> [Software certification] is something that needs to change, because in the future, we will have more and more sotware in medical devices.

I think this is wrong thinking. Software which drives safety critical systems needs to be perfect, and that is an impossible bar. Whether or not such a target is achievable, it is much MUCH harder if the software is under continuous development. It needs to take enough time to do it properly, and therefore software for critical systems ends up basically being your MVP. It does only what it must, but it does it right. You really don't get a second chance on safety critical systems.
Disagree, see my other posts on this thread.
I'd expect such a system to severely ramp up tensions during development. "Our nukes are about to be useless, and theirs will work fine" is not a great thought to have in an adversary's mind for a 5-10 year period.
It's not defensible, because you still have to social distance even when outside.

There is no "Linux" operating system. There is Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and 1001 others. This is the primary reason GUI interface is lacking. So you must resort to command line, 50 years after computer mouse was invented.
It is more than likely that Geekbench will use CPUID to establish what it is running on, and then adjust its kernels to suit the host CPU architecture. Rosetta2 would be using a CPUID that excludes the AVX and any other Intel ISA extensions that it does not support, therefore, Geekbench should be running without issues on the fastest vector extension supported, most likely SSE3 or SSE4.x.
Yes, the word "gypsy" comes from "Egypt". It's not immediately obvious why the term was applied to the gypsies.

We know with certainty that the gypsies came from India, though we don't know the details.

And yes, the voting machines have evolved to deal with that as well. Now, the printed paper is clearly displayed, the citizen looks at it and then they press OK if it's fine, and it falls straight into the ballot box. A bit easier :)

> The single largest contributor to the decrease in global poverty you cite is a communist country.

This is debatable, as all CCP statistics are.

The Chinese peasant class (hundresds of millions of people) in 2020 is not paid enough to plant their crops. That's absurd, since even on a good day China is major food importer - you don't disincentivize your own farmers from growing in a situation like that.

The statistic you're talking about is a top-down demand by the CCP that local officials claim a per capita income is met to get their own bonuses. Guess what - the officials all say they're 100% in compliance, as always.
Let's assume, for the sake of the argument, front-customer jobs are off limits to Gypsies. I can assure you there is plenty of work in agriculture and in construction in Ukraine, yet close to zero Gypsies interested in such jobs (lots of vacancies unfulfilled).

Near my residence in France there is a town called Lezignan-Corbieres. During the working hours the Gypsies parade on the main street; 99% of them are living off government hand offs.
A demon, indeed.
Fair enough! Looks like there is a big difference in electricity between US and UK as well? I am in Australia and we use our kettle (with several different preset temperatures) all the time.

It's not so much a 'Karen comment' as actually respecting human life. But sure, let's all spread the disease whenever we feel like it just because other people spread it worse.

Yeah, it's a tradition that stretches way back, to the Blair years at the very least - when "King SPAD" was Alastair Campbell, also known as the main inspiration for the character of Malcolm Tucker in "The Thick Of It".
I think your number is wrong right? Fiber should be 60% OF the speed of light, not 60% slower, so like 180km/s instead of 300km/s.
The persistent underfunding. Everyone who can afford to send their children to private school will do so because OK public schools are plain awful. Of course it's impossible to raise taxes to attract any sort of decent teacher or buy equipment or even paint because it's Oklahoma, no one is using public school anyway, so why fund it.

But what's wrong with Catholic school? They have a tradition of being quite secular and open to different worldviews.
Even if TSMC is western comany, monopoly on bleeding edge process is bad for world. I wish no more fabs (TSMC, Samsung, Intel) drop out from the race.
I would tend to agree. Linux has been my main OS for the past few years in part because I agree with the principles behind it, but also simply because I _feel_ better using it than using Windows. I'm not at ease with the user experience and the behaviour of Windows. So I'm using Linux and I don't really run into any meaningful issues day-to-day. The biggest issues I had to solve lately were on my VPS, not even my desktop.

But as the GP said : you can always use both, and there are a lot of ways to do so. A few games and softwares I use can't run on Linux so I keep a windows on dual-boot. WLS 2 is a great experience for a lot of folks, etc.

When you have a two-party system, you get binary outcomes - ie. divisiveness.

if you're getting paid a tech salary to live in Tulsa + $10k who the FUCK cares if a clerk is rude to you? They probably make $2k per month and live in a $500 / month apartment and can't afford to leave, can't afford to fly anywhere. Financial success should give you some fortitude to withstand really minor insults like that.
Would highly recommend watching the Dion presentation (last presentation of the 2nd. day) and the raylib one (fourth presentation 1st. day).
Very interesting. We once had a microwave link setup that would fail during the rain. Admittedly this was maybe 20 years ago so maybe the tech is different, but this would manifest as latency spikes presumably as there was a failure to extract signal and TCP backoff kicked in. i.e. it wasn't physical layer latency but transport layer latency.

But my knowledge of networks is fairly rudimentary and old now and now that I think about it, pings would get sudden spikes in the rain too and that's just a lower layer than I'm talking about. hmm. I was also a child then so I might be misremembering.
> I can usually distinguish between Japanese/Chinese/Korean just by realizing there are differences and noticing, but most other people just think "Asian" (or, even worse in my country, "Chinese").

You must be from the northern hemisphere. Globes seem to be mounted upside down usually, Antarctica belongs on top.
Is anyone else amazed that we are sending data to a satellite orbiting in space and getting a response that is 50-100 times faster (down) than the T1 links (1.544 mbps) our schools paid crazy amounts for when I was in high school almost 20 years ago? I mean that's pretty cool when you look at what Space X has done.
Seems like culture and poverty are one and the same, in this case.

If you are poor then maybe you will behave like that, but if you behave like that then you will certainly be poor.
The goal is to achieve best outcome that have the less harm. Lockdown cause harm that is more than the covid itself. It is because the human life is important that lockdown shouldn't be taken.

The lockdown cause harm is based on science and data.

The data shows that the disease is not that bad compared to lockdown.

If you want lock yourself up then I won't prevent you. Majority of population will oppose to lockdown if they presented with actual data, not fear mongering.
>It's also not at all clear what symptoms the participants are rating

I don't see how this matters? If the symptoms were the cause of the underlying condition, they would show up roughly as often between "no pill" and "placebo."

Exactly. I've heard this same type of criticism about Native Americans. "their towns are filthy, you will get robbed, (they aren't proper people, and being friends with them lowers your social status)".

Having experienced them, US reservations are definitely shitty places, but everything the OP said applies. Yes, they look like 3rd world counties, and passers-by attribute that to the people living there. Rather, the real reason these places look terrible is poverty and lack of investment.

I had the misfortune last year of having to attend a funeral on a reservation (misfortune in the sense that my friend died), and there was a stark line between the ranchland surrounding the res and the res itself.

I can't speak to Europe, but even in NA it really isn't about color of skin. I'm of French Mediterranean background, so during the summer I'm browner than most of my Hispanic friends. Doesn't matter, I 'pass' as a white person, while my Hispanic friend who is whiter than me gets treated like a second class citizen. It's fucked, but in America I don't actually think it's about race, americans just hide classism behind race since racism is more acceptable than classism.

Edit: not to say that reservations are unequalled places of filth. In my experience, even if you aren't native people are willing to help out. I was cross-country traveling on a garbage old Harley that needed help every 75 miles, and I had the most generous offers when I was in Native country vs. anything else. This agrees with the OP, in these places people are more willing to help out. For example, in a reservation town in SW SD my magneto died. I struggled with kicking the bike for 10 minutes, somebody eventually saw I was struggling and offered to call their cousin with a truck. Towing the bike behind a truck got it to fire, and everyone involved refused money (common response was "you'll need it later"). I get I was driving an absolute crap piece of machinery, but the reservation towns were much more helpful than other towns that I broke down in over that trip (and I broke down in a lot, I was driving a 71 harley sportster, they weren't even reliable when new).

It'll be interesting to see whether SpaceX allows, relatively easily and simply, Starlink to be used by brave people living under oppressive regimes: it could allow for far freer information than what's currently available.
The modern tech is indeed quite different, a modern microwave ptp radio system in rain susceptible bands (11,18,23GHz, etc) will be capable of adaptive coding and modulation to change to looser modulations on the fly during rain fade. With no change in latency, but drops in aggregate Mbps capacity. Of course no amount of ACM will help if someone has engineered the link wrong, at a distance too far, antennas too small, or similar.

For an example of a modern radio google aviat wtm4200.
What would be the use case for hft? I assume this would be slower than any existing microwave networks, or whatever is fastest right now. Cities that for whatever reason can’t be connected via microwave like nyc-London? I’m aware this possibly/probably reads like amateur hour to anyone actually in the hft biz...

how many satellites are up now & how many users are there?

what happens to get to the next 10x users? 100x?

it's cool that latency seems good.b that is the very first hurdle to viabity. but what hope there is for the future for this being real, useful, affordable broadband I think is still completely unknown.

whatever is happening today is being done at a radical loss, with a radically undersubscribed batch of satellites that is in no way going to reflect what kind of numbers people see if this goes anywhere, succeeds. maybe it can keep acting growing accommodating, providing magnitudes more bandwidth to people. maybe. while retaining this so far moderate price. maybe it's possible this works. but how it grows to serve orders of magnitude more folk, well, there are some constellation size asks, some guidelines, but it's very much indeterminate that the price point & offering now is viable, is really for real. there's a lot more finding out to do.

I think the death of the PC won’t happen until phones and similar have the same power user capabilities as one. As long as we need a PC to build things for our phones, they’ll exist in some form.

Recently had enough with windows and gave linux a try. Love it.It’s really good for SW development especially for experimenting and exploring languages. For work I still use windows but as soon as work is over i reboot into linux.

But Im no tipical user, I don’t play games and don’t consume a lot of modern media or crazy new hardware, but do watch some youtube, listen to podcasts and read a lot and linux offers more than what I need. Linux got to a point that installing it is way frictionless. I had some attempts to install linux 15 and then maybe 10 years ago and gave up quickly. Nowadays not only that it runs live off a usb stick, it also installs easily on an existing windows system with a choice of partition of any convenient size.

Also playing with python, racket, chicken scheme plays a whole lot nicer under Linux. I am really thrilled to be on Linux.
I just wanted to point out that the latest (RTX+) Nvidia cards support hardware dense optical flow calculation which sounds really fast from their docs. I quickly checked the repo for TFA but didn’t see mention of it. It would be interesting to see their method when designed to utilize hardware calculated optical flow, if that would help at all.

Here’s the NVIDIA library:

I’ve played with the NVENC hardware and it’s fast! I’ve not specifically tried the hardware optical flow calculation but docs say it can process flow for 4k video at 150fps!

> Horrible font rendering that makes me not even want to code

I know every system does font rendering a bit differently, and what people like to see really seems to have a big subjective factor it. Personally, I've always had a preference to how fonts are rendered on, for example, Ubuntu compared to Windows 10, especially with 2x scaling on high-DPI displays, but I acknowledge everyone's different.

> But the most important thing is that I am just tired of tinkering. Nowadays I just want to open my computer and get on my programming job and have everything just work.

Not disagreeing with you on this point. However, when it comes to "tinkering", I find all the cloud-connected nonsense and "extras" that Windows comes with turned on and thrown in your face by default after an install a much bigger annoyance, and I often have to go digging through all kinds of settings windows to get a good deal of that turned off, and even then it's not always possible (see telemetry, for example). A new Windows 10 install is a lot more effort in "tinkering" with all the settings into some sane configuration than any Linux distro where you're not compiling your own kernel and/or packages (and maybe even then).
