The drivers it installs is often a built-in Windows/Microsoft driver. It's easy to see in the Device Manager. It's just windows works differently. Every device that's connected first registers as am unknown device and then Windows searches all currently installed drivers for one that matches and configures the system to use that driver for the device. It's not "installing" a driver as much as "assigning" a driver.
Oh yeah, I was floored when I plugged a DS3 into my Linux laptop and the KDE UI came up prompting me to pair the device over Bluetooth. Sure enough, I unplugged it and it seamlessly switched to Bluetooth. That was a level of integration I wasn't expecting, and without ever installing any DualShock-specific package.

Unfortunately, one of the reasons I bought the controller was to try out the pressure sensitive face buttons, and PCSX2 on Linux didn't seem to support that? On Windows, PCSX2 can do this with ScpToolkit, but that seems to be abandoned. Still, for the 99% of games that don't need pressure sensitive face buttons, the DS3 integration in Linux was literally perfect.
One might argue that the "late 1960s to the present" does constitute at least part of the past.

Even if we only go back to my childhood in the 1960s, standards and mores were quite different back then.
If going to a gym is not an option (not cheap around here for one), I've had plenty of good experiences finding outdoor groups on Meetup or similar.

Got myself a bike, started riding in the forest with one group. Hiking with couple of others.

While getting out into nature is great in itself, the social aspect was really nice as well. Very relaxed, nothing forced.

But yeah, getting in better shape really helped on feeling more positive.
> I promise, it wont be overnight, but it will be FAST. you will feel better, youll make friends without even trying. Its impossible to go through an hour of physical suffering every day with the same people and not end up gradually talking more and getting to know each other.

I really encourage people to try a martial art like boxing, muay thai, or brazilian jiu jitsu once COVID lockdowns are over.

These sports are extremely effective at fighting depression and loneliness for a couple of reasons:

1. You get plenty of one-on-one interaction

2. Shared suffering really does create bonds

3. There is a lot of positive validation ("great jab!", "nice hook")

4. You will see the same people 2,3,4 times a week

5. Exercise releases endorphins

6. You will be proud of how your body changes for the better

7. You will get many compliments on your new figure

8. You will get more romantic interest (looks do matter, and doing a fun/exciting sport can be bonus points in dating)
A tree... like a Directory tree?

Being caught in a lie about your main product being fake is a win for the public in my book.
It probably doesn't make too much sense from a business perspective.

Domains are dominated by the long tail. Some people have built multi-million dollar brands off the TLD, but how do you raise prices to take advantage of that without losing the 100,000 other registrations that will just churn away?

In your example there's a fair bet they'd lose 99% of their existing user base, and kill any new use acquisition.
I worked at a startup that hired a designer that worked on Tron Legacy to design the main product interface and we built it. It's a very complex UI with lots of graphs and information and it was damn sexy and the information was actually useful.
I disagree. Garmin's high end watches are styled just the same as standard timepieces, but they just happen to be serious fitness trackers (in particular, see the Forerunner 945, Fenix series, and Marq series). Even with the standard wristband they generally fit in where any other timepiece would, and even more so if you pair it with a classic metal band (which is easily swapped in). Likewise, the watch face is customizable and subdued, unlike the glaringly bright screen of an Apple Watch. It's hard to pass off an Apple Watch as anything but obvious, chintzy tech gear.

Because of the weight of the particles that are being moved. They have to shake them, move them a bit, shake them again, move them a bit again. Moving a blob of plastic takes a lot more energy than what LCD's do: who just moves something like 1 electron per 10000 in the layer between the polarization filters.

The way multicolor e-color displays work is by having multiple size/weight particles that are moved by different field strengths, but require being even more careful (because every field, shaking and moving, will move every particle)
Try 77gb of high-resolution audio with realtime DSP happening, I guess? That's just for a piano instrument. https://synthogy.com/index.php/products/software-products/iv...

To be fair most sample-based instruments are not so data-heavy, but the very best-sounding high-quality ones are. They usually include some degree of software processing to dynamically alter the sound to make it sound as realistic or organic (or whatever) as possible. That's before any post-processing effects are layered on, per-instrument.
was that by backing carbon based fuels such as fracking and also by wanting to sell their gas abroad (see Nord Stream 2).

I've heard this statement made many times about start-ups. The problem is often that, in changing their economics to generate a profit, they could allow competitors to take all their market share.

In the case of AirBnB with their $93b market cap to get a P/E of say 35, they would need to generate $2.6b in profit, so could they do that and not crater their market?
It's not the fidelity, it's the human factor.

An concert, a play, or any other live performance is much more than a single night, 2 hour performance. It's countless hours of practice, errors, emotional up & downs during the journey.

The performance one watches is the tip of the iceberg and the underlying depth is what amazes us as humans. The unmistakable performance or real-time and invisible improvisation during the show.

I used to played in a symphony orchestra. Even the slowest of classical pieces is a storm for the orchestra, if not for the spectators.

I personally like Keith Rabois' and Ben Horowitz' material, in the list provided here. Those two individuals have built stuff, have suffered through painful moments in their entrepreneurial life, and have helped several startups do the same (with money and advice).

I am less of a fan of the rest of the material, but that might be just my preference.

I keep seeing lots of "bashing" when Sam Altman writes or says anything, and I'm not sure why. Agreed that he has his own way of interacting with the world, which sometimes suggests (at least to me) that he's living in a very thick bubble, and/or that he's not really able to be empathic with "normal" people. But besides that, I think he's a decent human being and his intentions are good, which in my book is more than enough to cut some slack and appreciate what he can offer.

I am also sometimes a critic of YC's material and "cool aid" approach, but again, I just try to take what works for me and simply ignore the rest. YC has the great merit of having democratized part of the process.

I think that right now founders have usually a decent deal; VCs are the top of the food chain; and early employees, and then mid-stage employees, got the shorter stick. But it's overall much better than it was twenty years ago. Again, IMHO.

On "how to start a startup", it's almost the year 2021, and I think that while some principles apply, we might need new ones; and that large corporations are making it harder for startups to succeed. E.g. try to build and "enterprise IT" startup, and you'll quickly see some sort of competition from AWS, Azure and GCP (in descending order), way earlier that what it would have been 10 years ago.

Or try to build b2c stuff, and wait for the big guys to show up at your door with a competing product or service very quickly.

I still admire the ones that start a startup these days. There's a huge difference of "opportunity cost" between white guys with a Stanford/MIT/etc background and a wealthy family behind them, versus a "normal" set of founders from a non-US background and very little money as a backup plan. I root for the latter, perhaps unfairly. I want to see more "rags to riches" stories, I want to hope that inequality and unfairness are going down in the world.

And finally, I also hope that instead of simply building "something that people want" (YC's motto), we see more and more people building something that is good for the world.
Well, I think that the sense of humor comes from the urge of enjoying every moment as it goes by. If you are fine by being the present version of yourself, then I think it is perfectly fine, noone is asking you to always be chirpy I guess.

But yes, if you do want to be a little more full of life then I guess you just have to push yourself a bit a day.

Moreover, I would like to share something from my personal experience. How you talk and watch and your reflexes, and generally the way you deal with life, it also depends on what you watch.

I would recomend watching shows which are really humorous like Friends, obviously! All the rom-coms and sitcoms which are funny, a bit childish would also work, but they must include a lot of sarcastic comments and laughter!

I hope it helps. :)

Also, you can read about it. I am deep into web comedy shows and sitcoms in general. I am a psychology student and I also like to study humor.

There are a lot of humor types and you can choose what kind of humor could possibly bring out the best of your spirit. https://humornama.com/featured/education/types-of-humor/

I would like for myself to have some positive sense of humor but I don't know how I master Self-depreciating humor. Lol.
This put a smile on my face, happy holidays
If young people in the UK genuinely didn’t want to do “menial” jobs, employers would either increase the pay until they filled the roles, or invest in the more highly skilled labour necessary to render those roles redundant.

I should point out I’m talking about both skilled and unskilled labour here.

British university graduates don’t stand a chance when they’re undercut by French, Spanish or Italian professionals with a decade of professional experience willing to work for peanuts.

By the way, when I wrote "code refactoring", I didn't mean "refactor Pijul", but rather supporting the following scenario:

- Alice splits a file into multiple smaller files.
- In parallel, Bob changes one function.

At the moment, when they merge, they will get a conflict (both the same conflict, obviously), but I think it could be possible to remove the conflict.

This is what my girlfriend is going through right now in England 12 months after divorcing her Indian husband. Even though we reset the iphone and change icloud he somehow manages to phone spy again within a month.

No way, I learned Ruby after 20 years of programming. Languages that earned me money before Ruby: C, Perl, Delphi (or something on DOS similar to it), Visual Basic, a little Visual C++, PHP, Java, JavaScript, even some Cobol plus a number of other languages for fun (hello to Postscript, Tcl, Forth, Pascal, BCPL, several assemblys and too many others to remember). Ruby was so much better. Garbage collection as in all interpreted languages, no types to write and a number of niceties that made me happy.

As you wrote, I started with Ruby because of Rails and I slowly migrated all my scripts from Perl to Ruby. Ruby is the language I use for my projects, plus some Node when I have to. Everything else is too hard, life is too short to waste it wrestling with those other languages. If I had to write something very parallel I'd go with Elixir. We'll see what Ruby's Ractors will bring to us.

Since you are aiming at more casual users, consider intuitive intelligent audio controls. Beginner and often intermediate users often do not understand the importance of good audio in a video. When they do it still takes a steep learning curve to understand the complexity and nuances of even the basics.

Most video editors don’t help users with audio.

Ideas:

Templated signal chains for individual audio tracks that include simple things such as gate, subtractive eq, compression, additive-eq

Templated master audio signal chain that can include simple compression / limiting , eq, and maximizing with a specific target LUFS in mind (based on where the user intends to upload as different sites have different ideal loudness)

Level suggestions for tracks, based upon if they are dialog, music-bed, room tone etc

Automatic level adjustment to bring the music bed up and down based on other tracks. Or simply the ability to generate suggested level automation.

Actually, automatic suggested level automation on any track independently would be really useful for things like dialog and interviews.

Not specifically audio, but being able to output multiple different renders depending on target website with a single click. (Ideal container, codec, resolutions, ratios, LUFS, etc). Even with predefined templates in other editors I have used, I still need to select and queue each render specifically.

Of course these suggestions are very reductive, but even the basics go so far in making a video not be bad.

Ultimately bad audio can make the best video unwatchable. Give the user some optional guard rails.

Oh yeah, don’t forget to transparency account for audio processing latency. Else lips won’t sync with dialog. Saw that happen with a beta version of an editor a few years back when they added VST support.
The injection of politics and fuzzy notions of morality into science and technology is corrupting the objective truth seeking foundations of these fields. NeurIPS needs to abandon this direction immediately or else its legitimacy will be in question. This will lead to the publishing authors affixing pandering impact statements to cater to the personal politics whims of those judging their work, and will also lead them to avoid risky exploration or challenges to the political status quo. The legitimacy of AI Ethics as a subject is in serious doubt already after the Timnit Gebru fiasco, but if NeurIPS wants to invite politics into the AI world, they should invite those writing papers on ethics to analyze others’ work instead of requiring such impact statements of authors who are focused on core technology.
So I personally didn't know that and it is interesting, but it doesn't change my basic perspective. That means the UK can't single out German cheeses if they have the same quality as other cheeses - but that still only means that any issues importing cheeses are created, on purpose, by the UK regulators. Because they explicitly want to control foreign cheeses on their market.

Thread ancestor was pointing out he likes having a big market to sell in to. I sympathise. And I really like the sound of the no-tariff low regulation UK cheese market, I'd vote for that if I were in the UK. But, and this is the focus for me in context of the article, these restriction are fully in the control of the UK and have very little to do with the success and failure of an EU-UK deal. It is simply a basic and well established observation that regulation makes it harder to run a business.
Might is right.

Also I don’t see the risk, as I see the British as much more dependable than the “tarzans”.

Isn't "victory" over competition a bad thing?
Why are the greatest achievements of 2020 the things most beneficial to the parochial interest of the United States?

The rebalancing of the US energy sector to natural gas has locked it into a new fossil fuel economy, at the very time that we need breakneck renewable investment. Oncoming carbon regulation, consumer reaction against gas, and the declining price-point of renewables, mean that the US is sitting on a carbon bubble waiting to explode.

One of the real silver linings of 2020, conspicuously absent from the Vox article, is that South Korea, Japan and China all committed to reach net zero emissions by around mid century, while the EU also brought forward it's targets. I would add that the Iranian nuclear deal is now being revived, breaking the power of militaristic hardliners in Iran, and quashing a nuclear arms race in the Middle East. Note that both were achieved despite the US: it left the Paris Agreement and reneged on its commitment to the Iranian nuclear deal.
I do feel that I could easily translate natural languages into a diagram as well. I am a very visual thinker, but that visual seeps into natural languages as well.
