As other posters mentioned, using extra chunks might make it incompatible with hosting sites that remove them.

Plus consider that they can be removed even perhaps unintentionally, if the upload process manipulates the image, it might convert the PNG file into a format-independent "Image" structure while in memory, which possibly discards this extra information.

Steganography is a bit more resillient since it will survive basically everything but scaling or lossy compression, as the information is in the image itself (and thus a format-independent program doesn't need to take into account that data).

Naturally, it is still liable to websites that assume images are photos and thus can be scaled and otherwise tampered with much less consequence.

There is a witch hunt against Google that is politically motivated happening now.

If Google is funding its own research, it should be able to look at whatever it wants. Why do we hold Google to a standard that most other companies are far worse at following?

The appropriate place for independent critical research is outside of the company itself.

Google is actually a pretty well intentioned entity to put out as much self critical research as it does.
Haha guess it wasn’t such a good example then, I had no idea. But I do think Slack or Discord works as well as native Mac apps from the user perspective. I can’t really tell the difference between Atom and say the old Sublime Text or Textmate. If you told me they were all Electron I’d believe you other than Textmate being so old that it couldn’t have been when I used it

Hydrogen pipelines with probably never be a thing. It's safer and more convenient to just produce h2 at the distribution point. The oil refinery/pipeline model exists because of the difficulty in synthesizing hydrocarbons, whereas h2 is (relatively speaking) far easier to create.

I’m not going to pretend to be as well researched on this point as yourself but one thing you hadn’t mentioned is the environmental impact of disposing batteries. Isn’t that the biggest complaint against electric cars (in much the same way that fission reactors are criticised for the radioactive matter that needs to be disposed of — albeit the timescales involved are different by orders of magnitude).
Isn't this a bit exaggerated?

Inflation = quantity x velocity

Velocity is low/zero, and so the product will be small/zero.

People have been going on about inflation for literally a decade, since QE1 started under Bernanke:

> We believe the Federal Reserve's large-scale asset purchase plan (so-called "quantitative easing") should be reconsidered and discontinued. We do not believe such a plan is necessary or advisable under current circumstances. The planned asset purchases risk currency debasement and inflation, and we do not think they will achieve the Fed's objective of promoting employment.

* https://economics21.org/html/open-letter-ben-bernanke-287.ht...

Meanwhile Keynesian folks like Krugman have been saying we're in a liquidity trap because of the ZLB on rates:

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_lower_bound

Japan has been in this situation for decades, and Krugman has been writing about it for just as long (1998):

* https://www.princeton.edu/~pkrugman/japans_trap.pdf

So we have a testable hypothesis: the inflationistas have been yelling about this for over a decade, and the (e.g.) Keynesians have been saying 'we'll be fine given the conditions'.

Given the (empirical) results, I'll continue to follow the Keynesians. If at some point they end up being wrong, then I'll re-consider (assuming they don't self-correct and figure out why their models got it wrong).

That duality is a few degree too far removed to map to CS->SE.

Alogrithms, & data structures are one of the obvious fully shared concerns between CS and SE.

Also, as a software practitioner, I can give you multiple examples of reaching into CS research and then directly appying it to code. A favorite ~recent example was discovering "Power of Two Choices" (for bins and balls) a few years ago, and then, that very day, doing a prototype of a cache using that approach. I seriously doubt a Mechanical Engineers would have the same experience with ~contemporary fundamental physics theoretical papers.
$1B is a high bar, but there are probably examples. Another comment mentions MCAS, but maybe that's too easily classified as a management failure. Out of curiosity I looked up a couple of other contenders, but neither made the cut.

However, that search took me to an example that I didn't recall, resulting in loss of life. I'll probably reference this story about the Therac-25 in the future as it hits on a number of clear software engineering failures:

What we need is a law that when a business unreasonably delays or denies a rightful claim that there are substantial additional costs for them. As it stands garbage like this makes economic sense, the only way it will stop is if throwing up roadblocks costs more than simply paying what they owe.
Simple example: monitoring your systems when data only increases, like number of hits to your site or queries to the db. That graph is always up and to the right. However, if you look at the rate of change (cough, derivative/calculus), the graph now tells you interesting things. Granted, the calculus understanding there is superficial, but it is there!

Aside from blending small amounts on hydrogen in existing methane feeds, no one will do this. Pure hydrogen is a dangerous gas that burns much hotter than methane, can seep trough the tiniest of cracks that methane/propane cannot and can even penetrate the crystal lattice of common metals such as steel, leading to embrittlement and catastrophic failure under normal use. By the time you upgrade the methane infrastructure to handle it, you will build a whole network all together.

And there is also an economic argument: methane/propane work because they are pure energy coming from the ground, you can only burn them to recover it. To produce Hidrogen, you need electric energy, or some very hot source that could be turn to electricity at a high efficiency. It makes zero sense to generate hidrogen in order to burn it for domestic heating, when the equivalent electric energy could give 3-5 more heat using electric heat pumps.
Windows used to provide hex error codes with nearly every error message that couldn't be translated manually. Very often, these error messages can be traced to a generic error message if you look in the MSDN docs. Helped me solve quite some annoying Windows issues back in the day.

Since Microsoft went the UWP route, these nice error codes have been starting to vanish. Probably because when end users see an error they don't understand, their mind goes blank and their instinct is to click whatever button that makes the error go away, leading to confusion. A simple "try again later" will be a much more enjoyable experience for non-technical people than "Could not update your computer. The foobar failed to parse the widget tree (0xc0000005). Try again later."

When I did customer service, this trend had always irked me about Apple devices. I've had to tell a lot of people to contact Apple (which they never did of course, silently blaming us for their device not working) because all Apple's software said was "try again later".

And now it's spreading to other devices as well. Even if error codes are available, the error messages have been simplified and most error codes aren't documented. I wish there was some kind of generic standard shortcut or gesture that copied the stack trace of any fancy exception to your clipboard so people with technical know-how can actually solve the problem instead of getting told to "try to reboot my router" by a vague, generic help page when Netflix can't find a video stream that matches my video decoding hardware.
I live in NYC and order domino sometimes. Reasons:

1) Open late

2) Variety and style of toppings often better than traditional NYC pizza places.

Ex. Dominos uses thin pepperoni that crisps on the edges, regular pizza places use fat ones that grease up your pizza. Dominos uses dried jalapeno, regular pizza places use pickled that gets some brine on your pizza. etc.

> I don't think anyone is claiming that the N64 is finally unleashed with this, or anything.

Just trying to temper people’s expectations.

> It will knock down an entry barrier for some people, though, and there's no harm in that at all.

To be honest—I don’t think this is lowering the barrier of entry to N64 development much. Those are the expectations I’m trying to temper here. If you want to develop for N64, you’re going to go through a lot of fuss getting an EverDrive 64 or a similar alternative, setting up an accurate emulator like CEN64 (the popular emulators are not suitable for development), getting toolchains running on your development system, etc.

I think some people have equated “Linux has been ported to system X” as “development for system X is now solved”, when Linux is only a small part of the solution, and for smaller systems (like the N64, which has only 4 MB RAM base), Linux is probably not your kernel of choice anyway.

The Nintendo 64 development scene would definitely benefit from more people pitching in and doing tools development. This is a good time to do it, there are a lot of gaps ready to be filled, and the number of people doing N64 development has increased quite a bit over the past couple years.
No, it’s a plain CRT.

Monochrome CRTs can use any color for the phosphor, and cheap displays usually used some variant of green or orange.

It did? When? Teams is terrible, slow, bugged and bloated software. I will never use it again.
Really, the term "micro" is about size, not functionality.

The fact is, the Linux kernel can be compiled with features to suit constrained environments. It is just that these features are determined at build time, not run time.
This only makes the problem more difficult, as software architects also exist.
Zoom didn't take off "out of nowhere", it was used by plenty people and places before too.

One of it's main strengths probably was how easy it is to use (e.g. plenty of the competitors you can't just sign up for a free account and then invite people without an account) while working very well (which many of the WebRTC-based competitors in the "easy and free to use" category struggle(d) with). And then it quickly becomes self-reinforcing: if people get introduced to it they'll use it too unless they have a good reason to seek something else, which gave it a boost once video conferencing suddenly was something many people needed. (by now Microsoft Teams has anecdotally taken over lots of the corporate use, tech-y communities have gotten around to bring their own jitsi and BBB instances up, ...)

Shredding happens on site but your point would stand otherwise.
Hirundo, I see. So perhaps a non germinating mixture would be good. I agree with the parasite problem. Perhaps 4-6 dunk tanks, so the new full top can be attached and the empty one immersed to soak in the detergent tank(no insecticide) and when you raise the next one, the soaking ones are drained and then a few rinse tanks. That way a crew could have them in the back of a pickup and do the swaps and dunk/rinse changes as they go from feeder tp feeder. This will have to be a short term production line in motion for the 4-6 weeks of the migration. Foods can change as the migratory species change over the various species migration patterns. This needs to be a major continuing state/national effort in many global areas to sustain the birds as the warming and concimmitant changes occur - or we witness the end of many species of birds.

Any chance this is related to that bombing in Nashville that took out some major communications services? Sometimes a big disruption in one area can cause problems with seemingly unrelated services far away, and Apple does have a major data center in the South (although I think the only thing they have in Nashville is an office and I don't know what they do there).
Jonathan Blow has a good talk about this. He says when he interviews he wants somebody that will default to a naive implementation (because most code is not performance-sensitive and you should optimize for development time in those cases), but he expects people to have a wide knowledge of tricks and techniques for the ~10% that is performance sensitive. That seems fair to me, as somebody who probably wouldn't pass his standards and needs to develop my algorithmic knowledge to handle that 10% better.

The EU has strict rules around exactly this. If the flight is outside the rules, you submit the paperwork and wait for a response. I've done this 5 times the last year and won more than the flight cost, even those times I received a hotel and replacement flight. It makes EU flight planners very careful, I imagine, due to the expense of losing an entire flight income and more.

There are obviously chemical-based processes for recording photos and video. They can be adapted for high temp. Balloons can be used to lift those records and other data high into the atmosphere, where temperatures are lower and they can be recovered and converted to electronic data by more conventional vehicles. It's very, very difficult, but not impossible.
Nope. This is incorrect and a common myth. Most engineering disciplines do not need professional accreditation.

General purpose automated storage solutions are in general hot garbage. There is so much context around what to store and what not to store, how long to store it, and how important information is for a user willing to expend and prioritize resources that it's highly variable and subjective on a per person basis.

"Cloud" storage services have taken the "save everything, worry about it later" approach since context is an issue and people are paying for this lack of data storage understanding with service agreements for never ending storage demands.

It's one thing to setup backend infrastructure and manage the storage transparently to the user for your application needs--you're the developer, you understand the context of what is and isn't important in the frame of the application. Here's a case of even that shooting developers in the foot.

The flaw in your reasoning is that you yourself have accepted a prison for your mind. I see this often among self-described liberals from the states.

You assume that someone who didn't arrive at your conclusions is not aware of what's outside the cave. That's elitism. Conservatives are not stupid. Maybe they prefer 'tried and true' over 'new and better'.

Taking the red pill (I'm aware of the bullshit ideological association, this is irony. My pop cultural point of reference is Matrix) is a taking a leap of faith. Given who's offering said pill ("liberals" like you), passing on it is actually sound decision making.
Healthcare, education, nursing and any other industry affected by cost disease likely won't get any cheaper either.
I think you underestimate how hard it is to differentiate your product in what is essentially a commodity market.

Most cities have a hundred pizza joints to order from, with quality and price being the only differentiator. That Dominoes was able to do that by branding might be "management school BS" (I love how tech people use that as a slur btw), but it has paid off for shareholders.
I think the identity of google as a search company continues to drive innovation. They have a deep desire to provide you the exact answer you’re looking for.

All Tylenol figures are in daily totals, and Tylenol lasts 4 hours. 500-1000mg taken 4x daily is 2-4g. That makes the therapeutic index 1.875-2.5 as I mentioned. 12g over 2 days is 1.5X. Again that’s without alcohol which folks do not seem to appreciate.

People can and do exceed these numbers hence the 50,000 ER visits per year. It is the leading cause of acute liver failure in the United States.

The bar shouldn’t be “often enough for most cases” when 1.5X the dose for 2 days can kill you. Either the safety margin is too low or the warnings aren’t nearly big enough, but the numbers don’t lie, the status quo is bad. Especially when the alternatives require way less diligence on your part and are sold as equivalent adjacent products.
The value in talking is that it sometimes increases the stock price, and that has material benefits for companies.

But besides the rise in stock price - talking has no value, in my opinion.
