Any proof that it went viral or it is just a marketing term?

The problem is that there are too many enemies and unlimited bullets, so the best strategy (in a keyboard) is to press:

up-space-up-space-up-space-up-space-up-space-...-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-...-up-space-up-space-up-space-up-space-up-space-...-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-...-up-space-up-space-up-space-up-space-up-space-...-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-...-up-space-up-space-up-space-up-space-up-space-...-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-...-up-space-up-space-up-space-up-space-up-space-...-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-down-space-...

and form a wall of bullets, without aiming. You should reduce the number of simultaneous bullets, or discount a small amount of health for a miss.

For the theme of the game, I think it's better to reduce the amount of bullets, because vaccine availability is not infinite.

Anyway, it seam to be too short, only 30 seconds. I'd like at least 5 minutes.
Many of us have been warning of this for some time. There are similar problems in Europe, but not so culturally extreme. Due to local history, the blindspots are not so prevalent and populists tend to go away.

What is most disconcerning though, is US people seeming to vote against their own interests. Maybe a third party instead of co-opting those who clearly don't have your own interest at heart. But then we see the predicament since the system/culture/billionaires don't support more parties and hard compromises.

Yeah, that post made me sad. Was enthusiastic about purism. Not interested in it anymore.
Seems like something that could be replicated with a square piece of cardboard and a QR code sticker the drone reads.
It is certainly interesting. If you want to check out some free alternative, that are pretty neat for longer writing, I really like Quoll Writer.

It does have few more useful features like password protected writing, pretty ergonomic, but less standard interface and few UI translations.
I had the impression that the inputs were one 2D and one 3D array. Are they both complex? Also it seems like they did not have the same sizes, as well as dimensionalities.
>The fansub quantity, for sure, has decreased, but not the quality. Speedsubs are no longer a concern for fansubbing these days.

That's exactly why the quality has gone down, due to these speed subs. Back in the day speed subs were not a thing. They popped up when legal subs started popping up, almost as a way to compete.

I think the first big name speed sub group was horriblesubs, and they still exist today. Today fansubs are dominated by these groups. They're quality is okay to good. Sometimes they're the only option now, so I'd say the quality has gone down.

Back in the 4:3 days when anime was vbr and sources were interlaced fansub groups would go through frame by frame doing pulldown and denoising. It was amazing. They'd have high quality karaoke in the opening and ending scenes. When's the last time you've seen high quality karaoke on fansubs?

No, quality has gone down. They don't even do color correction today. Maybe in the last 3 years or so fansub quality has gone up a bit, but it's not a lot.. not enough for me to notice much.

I think that's not quite right. While it's true that for each node they build different manufacturing lines, generating the required know-how is an iterative/evolutionary process in the same way that process node technology usually builds on the proven tech of the previous node.

That's a pretty thin technicality. In many places those were majority opinions and the representatives were doing exactly what their electorate wanted them to do.

If you'd like, I'm sure there are referendums and initiatives that are directly voted on that I could dig up. A quick search in my local area says WA initiative 192 was a case where the majority chose to deplete a shared resource (salmon) and failed to protect minority interests.
> If light were a wave that carried energy, this wouldn’t explain why an equal amount of energy has a different effect depending on its wavelength.

Not by itself but the accompanying theory - classical EM theory - does explain why different frequencies interact differently. Absorption/dispersion spectra are well described by wave theory. What the classical wave theory can't explain easily are coincidence counts in extremely weak light (antibunching), or things such as the Compton scattering.
I've been using Firefox since its inception, and was a Netscape user before that. I _briefly_ tried Chrome, but swiftly returned to Firefox.

Half my extensions are still broken on Firefox Android. I've been using Firefox desktop on my PinePhone off-and-on and not only do all of my extensions work, but it's snappy and has a superior UX. I can actually access and manage my bookmarks with a sane interface.

And yet even desktop is sullied. Each major version tries to hide my bookmarks, or something equally egregious, and Mozilla frequently abuses my trust by promoting products and services through privileged channels.

It's getting hard to justify using Firefox.
I believe the answer is yes. Should you run into any issues, please do let us know.
I wonder if there is some geographical variation in the alarm sensitivity. I rarely hear car alarms in Helsinki, the capital of Finland. I have never noticed that any slight bumps or vibrations would set car alarms off. I have even scratched a few cars in the parking lot with my own car back in the days when I had just gotten my license, and still no alarms.

Car theft is relatively rare here too.
I'd love to read a blog post detailing exactly how is this done.

“nevertheless the big US platforms dictate on a global level what is correct and what not to us”

This makes little sense to me.

Who is preventing you from saying what, to whom?
Man, there sure is a lot of crime for a town of 300. I’ve lived in a big city for 20 years and never had anyone mess with my car.
We actually had a rare experiment to revalidate this in the 2008 recession. The US went with money printing and inflation while the EU chose austerity. The result was the EU suffered a prolonged and deep multi-year recession while the US had one of the longest growth periods in its history.

Economics as a field has lots of issues with respect to lack of validation. But this is one of its major successes and is repeatedly backed by empirical evidence.
Easy has nothing to do with it. It was possible to move cities/towns/state/country, start fresh and have people judge you by your current actions and things you say... not something you said 10 years ago late one night on twitter after a few beers.
Yeah "we need to break all encryption to catch people planning terrorism in Facebook groups, e-mail, and unencrypted SMS..."

Most terrorists are idiots because most people who are not idiots are not terrorists.
> KFC’s current marketing team is on fire. My teenagers sat us down recently and forced us to watch the kfc lifetime special, and have been asking for their gaming console (comes with a warming bucket for chicken, natch). HBS cases are going to be written about these mad geniuses very soon.

What the absolute fuck is this... I can't wrap my head around what seems like an AI based structured sentence, that I presume you wrote, and is starkly reminiscent of that story written about an app based darknet economy that is really just an AI meant to kept Humans addicted to devices and plugged into 'the matrix,' but I can't help but be intrigued.

Can you provide links to this console and this series... I want to give myself a reason to stop being on the internet for a few days and I'm sure this would do it.
As someone who's car has been broken into several times, to steal "stuff" it seems there's a market for something to prevent property theft from within a car. I don't know what it is and maybe cameras like Owl are the solution but I'd pay good money to keep my car from being broken into.
This is one example of when it’s useful:

Really? If someone comes over and you say "help yourself to anything in the fridge" you shouldn't expect that someone will take a snack and not clear out your fridge and load up there car with groceries for the week?
This isn't about my mother-in-law. She will be gone either way, so at most it hurts here for a couple months. This is about my family looking at our last chance for memories. We are sad for us because we did enjoy spending time with her. We are sad for the grandkids that will never remember their grandma. In a couple months there will be no long phone calls. Already she will never again send us home grown pecans (too painful to get out and process them so they are selling this years crop to generic processors). Those are but a few of the things we are going to miss.

Note, the above is not a unique case to me, if it was I wouldn't say anything as my grief is a private matter. The details are different, but stories like the above happen every day. COVID just made this case slightly worse because it isn't safe to make the final visits.
This is not true in most of the world. Unless you are using their likeness to advertise a commercial product, you don't need the subjects permission to publish it on the internet, sell the photo, upload it etc.

>and/or the parts if the vehicle is broken down and sold.

In the US, there's a product/service called Phantom Footprints that many dealers offer as an add-on. They affix tamper-evident stickers (the sort that leave a 'tattoo' if removed)/laser engrave a unique identifier that ties the vehicles/parts back to the owner in a database maintained by Phantom Footprints. On some vehicles, getting it installed and registering can even get you a discount on car insurance.

If you're going to make claims as serious as attempting a coup, you'd better have evidence.

NOBODY was charged with rioting, let alone sedition or insurrection. Less than 30 in a crowd of a couple hundred thousand got charged with anything more serious than some variant of unlawful entry (and only about 100 people are wanted at all).

If such charges could be reasonably made, don't you think they would make them? The prosecutor isn't an idiot. He/She knows that no reasonable jury will convict on those charges. It would even be a great political win if they could get them to stick, but it's so far out of reach that they won't take on the loss and resulting publicity.

It's far easier for the media to make claims than to substantiate them. I'd guess that there's a serious risk of several big media companies being sued.

Yup, that's what really stinks about these protests. You could go to several social media sites and see the 6th plans.

It was incredible to see so few Capitol police guarding the capitol. Further, the fact that they didn't employ things like tear gas sooner was incredible. They just sort of let the rioters through the weak barriers they setup.

Security HAD to have known this was coming. This wasn't some secret plot. I knew this was coming just because I like to keep tabs on what the trump supporters are saying. It was all over the reddit knockoff (win).
In some circumstances, and for a while. For example Parler has found a new host in Russia, probably with a big helping hand from Russian intelligence.

And sure that host could be deplatformed over it too, but if that continues to escalate then the ultimate endpoint is a balkanized internet where we don't tolerate traffic from ISPs that provide peer exchange to ISPs that provide data services to datacenters that provide services to hosting services that provide services to Parler. Effectively if Russia is willing to continue to escalate then the only practical solution to "de-platform" Parler would be to cut off Russia from the rest of the internet entirely.
You say my point is fair but then seem to just dismiss it, and throw in a straw man.

Obviously no single news article causes a riot.

But a series of fake news articles cause people to hold false beliefs.

False beliefs lead to bad decisions.

However I agree with you that fake news alone is not the problem.

It’s fake news combined people with shitty lives combined with no sense that the system cares.

Seriously. I've been considering bricking a couple of the street racers in my neighborhood lately. One of the idiots likes to rev the engine to vent his frustration as he drives back and forth looking for parking.

The funny thing is, a lot of the loud cars aren't even that fast. My 2.4L SUV beats a lot of those fools sporting straight pipes.
Far-right terrorism in the US has never really been taken seriously. No one took them seriously. Until the Capitol was attacked.

The Feds are starting to roll up high ranking militia members, so hopefully they learned their lesson this time.
I agree with your general point, but the claim "everyone other than a few pedants pronounce it the correct way" does not match my experience at all. People I talk to seem to be pretty evenly split on the matter, and most are entirely unaware that there is any controversy about the pronunciation at all.
... and perhaps for good reason.

The most frustrating thing about the whole debate around censorship/deplatforming that no one seems to want to acknowledge that there is probably no good answer, only acceptable compromises. Everyone wants to paint those who came to a different conclusion as stupid or acting in bad faith, as if the answer is as clear as the sky is blue. No wonder this discussion never goes anywhere...
Compared to other DC protests, the absence of preparation was the preparation.

A coworker has a lot of conservative friends. All of them were banned from FB until the 23rd. Even her daughter, who has never written any posts supporting DJT, but liked a few posts, was banned for the same time frame.

I've read absolutely nothing about this in the news. She even shared a screenshot one of her friends shared with her. It said:

"Your account is restricted right now.

You're temporarily restricted from doing things like posting or commenting on groups, Pages or events until January 23 at 3:19 AM.

Dismiss"

I take this to mean they are afraid of a 2nd around of problems.
Yes it does. There are still issues with benchmarking in global scope, though, which is why it is better to use BenchmarkTools.jl

Anyone with a car alarm enabled in a city is just straight up rude and inconsiderate. I can't imagine the mindset involved for someone to put a device outside someone's bedroom window that will somewhat randomly start blasting loud sounds at all hours of the night.

I'd support legislation making it illegal. Why are car alarms exempt from noise ordinances?

I think there are serious concerns about Qualcomm's commitment to competitive performance instead of just being a patent troll. I think if AWS Graviton is followed by Microsoft[0] and Google[1] also having their own custom ARM chips it will force Qualcomm to either innovate or die. And will make the ARM landscape quite competitive. M1 has shown what's possible. MS and Google (and Amazon) certainly have the $$ to match what Apple is doing.

> through your firewall in non-obvious ways. People don't realize that with a default Docker configuration, containers are ignoring any normal firewall rules you may have setup with iptables or ufw.

What do you mean by non-obvious? If I bind a port of the container to the host eg. -p 8080:80 only this port is a hole. Do you have something different in mind? (I'm a docker beginner)
That's a prediction. Evidence is so far inconclusive.
"Turn on by default the tools to amplify factual voices over disinformation."

One has to read closely to pick up on the doublespeak. They are calling for the use of algorithms to hide ideas they disagree with and artificially promote ideas they agree with. It is soft censorship but far more sinister.
I build my first lambda 4 years ago and it was great: no servers, no complicated tools. Just one function which I upload and it works. The amount of tooling which exists now is just daunting. At this point, is it still worth it if the technology is so complex that people are building the whole SaaS for managing it?

PS YC is still bullish on selling shovels I see.

And I feel 0 empathy for you. With the digital platform you are stripping away ownership rights from the purchaser.

I was looking at the same image.

A very large part of the die is not labelled and it must include some blocks that cannot be omitted from the CPU, e.g. the PCIe controller and various parts from the memory controller, e.g. buffers and prefetchers.

The area labelled for the memory channels seems to contain just the physical interfaces for the memory, that is why it is small. The complete memory controller must include parts of the unlabelled area.

Even if the CPU part of M1 would be smaller, e.g. just a quarter, that would be 30 square mm. In the 32 nm technology that would likely need much more than 1000 square mm, i.e. it would be impossible to be manufactured.

The number of transistors claimed for various CPUs or GPUs is mostly meaningless and usually very far from the truth anyway.

The only thing that matters for estimating the costs and the scaling to other processes is the area occupied on the die, which is determined by much more factors than the number of transistors used, even if that would have been reported accurately. (The transistors are not identical, they can have very different sizes and the area of various parts of a CPU may be determined more by the number of interconnections than by the number of transistors.)
