They retain me with the 1.5x value if points are used for booking flights through their portal.

I'm too lazy to run the numbers, but I think I'd lose value on the points I have/will have next year if I downgraded, especially since you can move all your points over from other Chase cards to that account.
Man, it literally says "It's CSS, with just a little more." That is not what I mean. I know about less and sass already.
I do not see how that is disagreeing with my statement. If the security architecture of your IT system can be compromised by stupid mistakes in some selection of hundreds to thousands of dependencies and that selection was not audited then the security architecture can not protect from simple attacks which, almost definitionally, means the security process is largely useless as attackers do not care to attack only where the systems are strong. If auditing dependencies is viewed as "too hard" or "too expensive" I do not see how that has any bearing on the security of the system. It merely demonstrates that improving the security is not worth the cost tradeoff, it does not somehow magically improve the objective security of the system.

The objective evaluation of a comprehensive security architecture depends on its holistic effectiveness, not merely the effectiveness of the parts the designers thought about. By that metric, I am not aware of any commercial IT system that even meets the low bar of protecting against an attack with a mere $10M in funding, let alone the billions a state actor has access to. So, a question for you, are you aware of any commercial IT system in the entire world that you think would survive a $10M open bounty let alone $1B? If so, what objective, empirical evidence do you have to justify that claim? Hopefully one day I might get a convincing response to this question.

Mercurial was officially named after Larry McVoy. (No idea about git.)

That said, in his defense, causing the creation of multiple open-source competitors to one’s moneymaker can be stressful.
You can have bones that are parented but don't have one of their vertices directly attached to one of the parent's vertices. It's really just a hierarchy of transformation (child's overall transform = its transform relative to parent + parent's transform). Put differently, the "attached at the joints" notion is often approximated just because that's how human skeletons work, but it's by no means required. And "bones" in this sense don't always even correspond to actual skeletal bones; they're really just a tool for moving around groups of vertices without having to mess with hundreds or thousands of them individually.

That said - and I haven't done this myself, I'm just speculating - if you're using motion capture data directly maybe it makes sense to ditch the hierarchy altogether and have each bone be independent? Though, that could be problematic if you wanted to blend some "artificial" animations together with the recorded ones. I'm not sure what the standard practice is.
From what I hear, the Stadia version is actually really good. The solution to their problem might be porting that version around.
I can't really speak to the early history, but I mean they bought most of the Tubesites back then which we all know had a fair amount of piracy - so from a guess, I'd say they were aware and it was part of the strategy, yeah. For the takedown requests, no idea.
I would recommend checking out other GPU APIs, OpenGL is kind of terrible. DirectX and Metal are nice (and also have a nice debuggers) or WebGPU. WGPU is a nice WebGPU implementation https://github.com/gfx-rs/wgpu
Laurel and Hardy never won, either. There are a lot of parallels between D+D and L+H. If you haven't seen them before, checkout "The Music Box".
It mirrors a regular startup which is more male.

Agencies in general are more populated with women,gender minorities for a variety of reasons.

Porn doesn't hang on the walls. And you are more likely to find harassment outside of a business like this because everyone would try harder to make the female welcome because of the sigma.

Just last night, I was looking to buy some kind of less-expensive version of Apple AirPods, but for each item I checked on reviewmeta.com, they were filtering out 70%+ of the reviews as suspicious. I decided I'd had enough of the appearance of sketchiness for now, and instead bought the cheap (supposedly genuine) Apple wired earbuds as an interim measure.

> Not sure how using a VHDX or partition would solve that

The problem with WSL1 is limited to disk IO performance, because the compatibility layer that's easy to do with system calls isn't so easy to do with the filesystem.

> We'd be back to square one, with things like containers being unusable again.

It's complementary. WSL2 when you play with containers, WSL1 when you don't.

Personally, I don't bother with containers for about 90% of the development cycle - and it's just for testing before being deployed to a genuine linux, not some VM.

Also, if you want to run servers with WSL (say, postgres), having containers is the last of your problems.
It stand for geometry buffer. It looks like none of the replies led with that. If you render positions into a pixel buffer and normals into another pixel buffer, you can shade the pixels and avoid shading lots of fragments that will be hidden. It gets more complicated obviously (material IDs, reflection roughness, etc.) but those are the basics.
If you can turn it into a bunch of python (or bash) scripts that should be scheduled after each other you could probably use airflow. I'm not saying you should, but it's perfectly doable. Airflow works best when you're free to restart jobs though, that's probably something to keep in mind.

And Airflow is designed to spread tasks between a set of available workers, so while you can make jobs that trigger something remotely through SSH (for example) I'm still looking for a way to have a 'remote worker' that runs airflow jobs on the remote system itself rather than through an SSH connection (mostly because of a rather peculiar use-case where we'd prefer to run jobs on a remote network without two-way communication).
Yeah but I have to buy the soldering iron then spend my time figuring the kit out and doing the job.

I’d be happy to pay OP for their work and everyone wins.
If you looked at it head on and something was in a bubble deflecting light around it, could you tell that it's there because that light takes longer to get through/around relative to the immediate surrounding. Probably still not perceptible.

This article is relevant to people who nap. (And I think napping, over nighttime sleep fragmentation or other sleep stuff, going off the supplementary materials of the original study)

And we also know people who have Alzheimer nap more. Which they are not sure quite yet on correlation or causation related to this study.
While that's technically true, it isn't in any practical way. What K/V API does CockroachDB offer you as a user? The closest you can get is:

CREATE TABLE kv (key STRING PRIMARY KEY, value STRING);

But calling that a "key-value" store is disingenuous at best.

Might be cruel, but people are on their own anyways and stronger than most people think.

Trickle down healthcare, education, civil rights, jobs, and housing hasn't worked either. Power uses problems for their own gain resulting in command economies and authoritarianism which are miserable compared to self-educated motivated individuals.

Because everyone can mess up, laws declaring no mess-ups are impossible. Might as well plan for the western sunrise or uphill running water.

What works? Respecting others. Leaving people alone. Problems fix themselves regardless of what powerful people do. Political arguments deserve the most cynicism. Violence with words by men in makeup who do very little and it's all only for themselves.

If raising taxes hurts growth, lowering taxes helps growth. That's a fallacy, but take that thought one step further. Bad people get a tax cut too. They horde or harm. Why does that mean we need more intervention and taxes? Federal governments can be corrupted just the same. Often all the same people just putting a cap on the next horrible war.
Yes, this is kind of what I am talking about. Thanks for the link.

But we should have more, and better ones. I didn't sit down and think about how it would be, I was just curious why we didn't go that path already, if a lot of people don't like CSS.
Although I agree more with the idea of free SW than with open source I cannot help finding here a resemblance of the obsession of all religions with heresies. And the smaller the community the more ridiculous it looks.

In particular attacking open source by downplaying the importance of collaboration, by giving quite absurd numbers IMO, it's attacking one of the things that I find transcend technical merit, like the freedom that is at the core of the free SW movement.
Decide what I want today : pasta, rice or a steak with mashed potatos.

Defrost some fish or meat. Do other stuff while it thawes.

Chop some vegetables, cook some water, cook & fry. 30 minutes while I do other stuff.

Pasta, rice, beans, potatos, fresh vegetables and meat & fish, I have plenty of stock. And I live really small.

But yes, the whole point of brand marketing is to invoke a relationship in the mind of the [potential] buyer. And when you have people who devote their life to it there has to be someone out there who is good at it using whatever pysch tricks they can.

So no wonder some people fall for it. It's almost inevitable.
Companies take a big brand hit if they increase prices to match their low output. Adidas, too, can sell Yeezys for $1000 a pop, but chooses not to. It also helps keep the hype for the products up.

The important bit is that bitcoin is not technically capable of being a threat to the US dollar or any other major currency. As currency for use in real world transactions, bitcoin is a huge step backwards.
Joe Rogan interviewed David Fravor, a retired Navy pilot, alongside a documentary maker who was interested in UFOs.
The conversation was cautious but not particularly skeptical.

It sounded like Mr. Fravor saw something in his airspace with his own two eyes. I don't know what it was (blimp, foreign aircraft, whatever), though I doubt it was extraterrestrial. (Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence)

I couldn't spot anything obviously wrong with Mr. Fravor's story by itself.

On the other hand, if the DoD wanted to nudge their pilots to report things they see, and had a story like David Fravor's to put out there in order to encourage current pilots to report what they see, that would be a propaganda event to encourage, so to speak, at least by declassifying harmless footage and not squashing the story.

This behaviour is not unique to the PRC, and, for an example, you see it all the time in political law-and-order rhetoric in the US. The law is sacred, the law must be obeyed, people are rightly punished for breaking the law, yet the law is enforced incredibly inconsistently, and for what are often quite political goals.

It comes to a particularly poignant moment at the top of the political structure, in the form of presidential pardons, many of them self-serving. (How their existence can be reconciled with claims about all men being equal under the law is mind-boggling.)

Rule of law is a sliding scale. Some countries have more of it, some have less of it, but from having lived in four of them, my observation is that none of them have enough of it. Violations of it simply manifest in different ways.
Why did you skip the Swedish example? That's the most similar to this. It's just a shortcut.

This is English speaking folks that have adopted a Spanish word and are now making it gender neutral by skipping the last letter. They are under no obligation to continue to follow the the original language's grammar. We would have a major linguistical crises on our hands if that was so.
Current games look much better than what was ever done on the unreal 3 engine. It doesn't have much to do with smaller worlds and lightmaps are still used all the time. Look at the most recent doom and compare it to anything done with unreal 3.

This expands what CF means as a potential developer platform. I plan to test Pages this weekend with a Jekyll Stackbit site.
Google Volga pollution.
But it's a homogenous platform instead of the mad set of different driver versions/-implementations, desktop environments, windowing protocols, audio protocols, etc. that is colloquially referred to as the GNU/Linux desktop. If Google brought out a stadia console with one consistent OS image, hardware, and driver, it might become easier for devs to support it.
Thank you for your candid feedback. Those reasons were also echoed in our user research as we were dedicating ourselves to the project.

Could you please share why you think those arent good enough reasons? Ofcourse, social proof is important regardless. SuperTokens is being used in the real world, in production. Would you like to see more people using it or some recognizable entreprise brand names?
Many of the sellers on Aliexpress are the same sellers on Amazon. The FBA model makes it easy to cut out the middleman.
My lunch was always covered by my employer way back when and was written off as a business expense. You’d be surprised how many things can be written off as a deductible business expense. And these days..for certain contracted jobs at the farm, I always order lunch for the workers. I consider it part of their pay even though it’s not included in the hourly rate. Maybe it’s her job’s perk?

When it comes to food, I find it difficult to fault people ..even those with questionable budgetary discipline. It is one of the most basic wants in life. Food and sex...I won’t judge.

When I was renting a room in London, I’d eat basic food for days just so I can try out Michelin star restaurants once or twice a month. And it was worth it. When I eat good food, I am out of the rat race. I become the most important person to me.

If this woman is working multiple jobs to make ends meet, getting food delivered for her is probably making her feel good.
> This is a regulatory problem

This is a consumer problem - "you get what you pay for."

If you want to buy something from a retailer that gives a shit about their wholesalers, shop at a local superstore for whatever items your looking for and eat the difference in cost.

> If Amazon was a corner hardware store it would have been fined multiple times and the owner might well have been jailed by now.

If Amazon was a corner hardware store and not a marketplace, they would have been run out of business by all the customers returning garbage and counterfeits they bought from them. But that's not what Amazon is, they're ostensibly connecting buyers to sellers and providing logistics - not behaving as a retailer that selects their wholesalers and manages their supply chain besides getting shit from point A to point B.

What Amazon shouldn't do is have it both ways, either they're an Ebay-esque digital flea market where everything is buyer-beware, or they're a retailer who is responsible for the garbage on their shelves. They don't want to be either, and if there's regulation to be had, it should focus on that difference (as well as regarding their own products - you don't see flea markets driving their merchants out of business by stealing their products and undercutting their prices, while stores can stock generics alongside their curated shelves).
> Its a declining regional power

It's a declining global power, but a rising regional power. It's nowhere what it was in the soviet days, but it certainly has been growing since the post 90s collapse.

"Companies who spend $$$ to buy ads" are the customer in FB and Google's case...

That's a good point (especially for anyone considering making store-bought honey a staple of their diet), and an interesting observation, but even so, they would still, at the extreme end of 50% larva, be getting something like overall 25% of their calories from a "rocket fuel" of simple sugar.

So I remain convinced that the main problem with modern processed food is not the amount or makeup of the carbs, but more likely the novel ingredients and quantities of fats.

The Hadza do move a lot, but not a crazy amount: about 2 hours per day of "moderate to vigerous physical activity."

https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2017/01/03/5075628...

I would predict that 2 hours of exercise a day are not going to save you from a diet of twinkies and oreos; exercise is great, but eating healthy food is critical.
There's an alternate history where Stallman did the Aikido move of accepting the descriptor of "open source" to simply describe a subset of the free software philosophy.

After all, in his initial announcement to create Gnu, he didn't say, "Of course it might turn out to perform worse, and it won't have near as many features, nor attract many other developers, or have a sane review process, or be secure... but that doesn't matter because it's all in the interest of freedom and that's the model people should follow." No, as with the OSI, he set out with some bold claims, then inspired people to help by incrementally making those claims be true.

Anyway, I fail to see how anything bad would have happened from him making this clever play. What would have been wrong with going to open source conferences, and eventually reaching a larger audience with his prescient warnings about mass surveillance, DRM, and whatnot?
Ironically, I called to cancel mine a couple days ago (without knowing about the retention offer) and the CSR asked why. I said that the reduced benefits and increased annual fee made it no longer worth it for me and I was then offered the $250 statement credit. I accepted since that drops the annual fee to a reasonable level. I don't know if I'll stay next year without an additional offer, though. At the previous annual fee of $450, before COVID when I traveled a fair bit for work, and with easily-transferable points for personal air travel, the benefits easily paid for the annual fee. Now work travel is all canceled, the annual fee is up to $550, and their points can't be redeemed for travel on several of the airlines that I flew most frequently. Ah well, first-world problems.
Good idea -- that would work for my larger Levoit unit, which takes a pair of flat rectangular filters, though not for the smaller cylindrical unit.

For now, I'm going to try to keep buying the Levoit filters, since I think they have more "layers" than the furnace filters, and I don't have a good sense of what all I should to be filtering in this location. But it's good to have a backup plan.
As a consumer, I can unequivocally say that I enjoy and prefer aggregation features and some OneBox features, I want the search to return an information-dense page with good summaries of, for example, Wikipedia articles and Oneboxes with the financial status of companies.

I've read part of the complaint, and it is fairly persuasive, but I do feel like most of Google's actions that "reinforce" their monopoly are somewhat morally acceptable. Like Google requiring Android manufactures to use Chrome and its search engine as default or Google paying Apple to make its search engine the default in iOs. Google is spending most likely billions on developing and maintaining Android and thus deserve to impose some financially beneficial requirements. However, Google blanket banning manufacturers from forking Android instead of just prohibiting Android-forks from using "Google Play Services" is clearly anti-competitive and shady.

Here is the PDF of the complaint https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/20431671/colorado...
Why doesn't Amazon hire an independent third-party company to review and compare products and then highlight those in the review section? At least it would make it seem like they care about increasing the trustworthiness of reviews and restore some confidence in the system.
Thank you! Best of luck :)
I'm humbly trying to upgrade from an i5-4670k to an i7-4790k (both of which are 7.5 years old) and it's a steal if you can find one for $150 + tax used on ebay. Madness.
It makes sense to me. Here is my understanding of what they are trying to say:

"The existing services were either too expensive or too complex, we thought we could do better"

That is a typical iterative product design that many companies choose.
This article is an excellent argument against reference counting.
The free software movement is not opposed to you writing software in-house, software which you do not ever distribute to anyone, and hence, are not required to distribute the source of that software to anyone. Hence, never-distributed closed-source software can be privately owned to generate economic profit.

The freedoms the free software movement tries to realize are not comparable to what you are saying. https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html
