I have a theory that offensive weaponry advancements produce peace, while defensive advancements produce war. If you're in a castle, it's easier to send armies around, knowing that you'll be safe. But if there are nukes and ICBMs, just stick with the status quo.

Any validity to this theory?

Yeah, exactly; if Intel is a "failing business" then I don't know what a successful business looks like. It's still one of the most profitable companies on the planet.

Look at IBM; while Big Blue was once seemingly omnipotent and they've since fallen from that position, it's still a double-digit billion company with over 300k employees. It's not as big (relatively speaking) as it once was, but it sure didn't die either.

Other companies have died, such as Digital Equipment, but that was the result of 1) a massive paradigm shift in computing and computing equipment (introduction of "personal computing"), and 2) some pretty bad business decisions (not just failing to get a hold of the PC market). Thus far, I'm not really seeing 1) happen, and 2) alone probably won't be enough to completely kill intel, just cripple it temporarily.

That list simply reflects the fact that older movies are forgotten and newer movies are more popular.

The rate of studio releases has been flat for decades and is even declining.[1] Television shows have certainly grown in number, diversity, and quality. But perhaps that's just because we spend more time in front of screens and have more disposable income, not because the pace of art and culture has sped up.

[1] See https://stephenfollows.com/how-many-films-are-released-each-... But before you argue that this is evidence of acceleration, if you read further down, and if you follow the money, it's more a reflection of a deluge of independent "releases" that nobody is actually watching. And it's not a long-tail phenomenon that's growing the viewership market; the vast majority of people only watch studio films.

Without having read the spec...

* `2021-W02` means the second (ISO) week of 2021. Perfectly valid and used in a lot of planning.

* `--01-14` - I'm assuming this is a recurring date: every 14 Jan for every year

* `--1013` - at 1PM every 10th of the month? Guessing here

I believe ISO 8601 is a ISO codification of a DIN standard, and based on other standards processes I'm guessing some German manufacturing companies were the only ones who bothered showing up, so their internal software practices were encoded into the spec because no-one else cared..

To add a data point: Ruby and Elixir developer here (and Python and JS). I never wrote a macro in Elixir. All that weird quote / unquote stuff is too complicated. I get the idea (code running at compile time) but the syntax is just unwelcoming. Furthermore macros tend to make code opaque and onboarding difficult. I could wake in terror if I dream of my coworkers implementing some new functionality by adding macros instead of functions.

Armchair general here, I've never been in any war. The biggest highlight of my general career was tower defence rushing unsuspecting human players in Warcraft 3 with orcs.

With that said: I think that whenever a human or organization has a stable situation with their current affairs, they can afford to take more risk. Attacking weapons don't necessarily make a situation stable, they simply give an edge when you have them. However, when you're the only one that has them and are stable enough, then you might be able to annihilate entire civilizations (e.g. the Aztecs versus a few hundred Spanish people). But when more people have them, then they can point them at you, making your own situation more unstable if you provoke those people.

> If it notices that the driver's head has turned, it adjusts the HUD elements being projected in less than 300 milliseconds to compensate.

It is very slow.

People feel discomfort when different "overlays" lag by as little as few tens of milliseconds.

People feel uncomfortable working with touchscreens because they feel "unnatural" when they push the button, and it only reacts, and plays animation half a second later.

What people say what feels most "fake" about touchscreens is stuttering, and lagginess.

I believe you really need to go to sub-millisecond levels of latency for it to feel "glued" to the real world.

I had a touchscreen project in the musical instrument space, with a pressure sensitive touchscreen, where button animation had to match the touchscreen pressure.

Even with all tricks, lag on Android was making it completely unusable, not to say Android's audio API is completely not suited for serious audio work. In the end we went bare metal with it.

The lowest latency we got was 18ms by using the touchscreen interrupt to set the sensor value as a pointer to bitmap image of a button animation frame.

Yet, some more experienced musicians said that it was still "felt off."

I'm thinking to go full FPGA next time I need to do any latency sensitive HMI with kinetic-screen interaction.

It should be acceptable. I am not sure what perspective you are making that statement from. I am coming at it by looking at the actions of Senate Republicans for the past decade. We absolutely must judge parties by what they do. A party that exists simply for the sake of obstruction, while claiming lies as its policy platform during elections, must be called out as such: https://www.americanprogress.org/issues/courts/news/2016/07/...

> In the real world the democratic system should also protect against "tyranny of the majority". Many checks and balances exists in particular to avoid that tyranny, not just three branches you mentioned.

They haven't really succeeded in doing that, if you look at American history. The majority in the US has always behaved in a tyrannical fashion, making it difficult or impossible for the minority to succeed. This happened first with the Protestant majority, then the White majority. When it couldn't do so explicitly, it did so via implicit structures that enforced this.

So the argument of filibuster as a check against the "tyranny of the majority" also doesn't really hold, through experience. Its also a fundamentally racist structure: https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/06/senate-fil...
Google is private corporation which produces own device & own operating system for them (aka "Android"). Google is not government of USA. US citizens may not buy Google device with preinstalled Google apps.

The most scarce resource is time. Switching job would presumably require more work from me at least temporarily. I'd perhaps need to commute initially at least, for example.

I'd like to know this: if I got 2x the pay in the US, could I instead ask to work 1/2 and get the current pay level I have?

Most likely no, right? So in what way is that higher pay actually helping me pursue passions? I'd be working at least as much as I do now, and most likely more, for that money.

When exactly are those passions supposed to be pursued? When retiring? I'm pursuing that now. I have had 6-8weeks off in summer the last 10 years. I like to travel, etc.

In my experience, a 3080 and PCI-E 4 NVMe is not enough to mitigate all bugs, it's certainly better than console videos I've seen on YouTube but many bugs seem to stem from the game engine itself.

In no particular order:
- cars drive on rails with no AI, this leads to an amusing bug on one of the highways where cars clip through a railing and destroy themselves, repeatedly
- NPC's often get stuck in t-pose, the game either cannot work out what to do with them or animations were not completed
- the game rarely maintains state of cars and NPC's if they're not visible (e.g. turn around 180 degrees), this can result in cars spawning where your car is while in motion
- unbalanced perks such as the body perk which stops enemies from knocking you over has the unintended side affect that a minimal hit and run by an NPC vehicle on the player character results in instant death because you cannot be knocked over
- enemy characters path finding failing and clipping through walls, I had to restart a section of the Panam ending 3 times because of this
- delayed physics calculations resulting in the player either moving at superhuman speeds or being catapulted through the environment
- the number of times my player became naked

There are many more bugs I encountered which I do not imagine to be related to loading times. In addition to the bugs, the game is simply incomplete, the lack of police AI (they instantly spawn behind you and are never seen driving vehicles) being the easiest example to provide.

This is not to say the game cannot be fun, I've put nearly 100 hours into it, but even after the 1.06 patch, I feel cheated by CDPR. The game is so full of bugs, glitches and missing game mechanics (compare what we got compared to their 2018 45 minute gameplay teaser) that it should have been delayed.

As it is, I feel that I've paid £50 to be an alpha tester for what I believed to be a completed retail game.

TSMC's lithography machines come from ASML, which is in the Netherlands. I always find it surprising that people talk about TSMC so much and not mention ASML; people talk about "TSMC's 5nm process", but it's really ASML's tech that powers all of that.

Setting up a new factory to replace TSMC is not trivial of course, as it's operationally hard, but none of the core tech would be "in China's hands".

You should also consider the liquidity risk when selling a house. The MSFT stock is traded thousands of times per day, so there is strong consensus on its price. A house like yours in a neighborhood like yours is maybe traded once per year, so there will be less consensus and you would have to wait longer for a suitable buyer or discount the price.

>Blackberry lost because of their keyboard.

Controversial take. I think Blackberry lost primarily because of their locked-in/niche OS at a time when the app scene was exploding. The keyboard if anything was a compelling reason to stay with them, especially in the exec/professionals sector of the market.

If blackberry had successfully executed a full iteration of their build/design quality with Android OS at a point where they could have retained their enterprise dominance, I think they would still be a major player today.

But it didn't go that way (a major cause for which was the scale of change that would have been needed to pivot BES/BIS early enough). I don't think the keyboard contributed to Blackberry's demise.

That weird scroll nubbin, on the other hand.... and let's not forget the 'haptic' touch on the Storm.

Exit scams are also a problem whose likelihood increases with time. Either the fed's bust in and take the user's money, or the market makers take off with the user's money, or both sides wait for the pot to get bigger.

It kinda seems like fees and taxes, but instead of paying them on every transaction the users gamble on whether they'll be the one stuck with the bill.

I'm also interested in the particular opsec failure for this iteration, I just think don't think it's the only factor.
It seems that "professional designer" means a person who makes changes that are generally bad. Once the UI is perfected, it must continue to change (and thereby become non-perfect) because how else would customers know that they got a new product?

If the professional designer in question really is expected to do something different, such as make usable software, then a review of job performance is sorely needed.

I could easily find similar posts on Facebook and Twitter. The questions are: how prevalent is this & did Parler really not delete this stuff?

Parler claims to have deleted every single post reported by Amazon. You claim that they didn't delete any of them. Do you have proof? It would be pretty weird for Parler to flat out lie on this point, so unless I see some evidence I'm going to assume Parler is (in this particular instance) telling the truth and you are lying.

You fail to imagine any other reason for Parler to exist other than for "threats and violent plots"? That's so outlandish I don't think you believe it yourself.
