also "LED" fixtures may not be the answer. The astrophotography community has software to remove both high and low pressure sodium lights' color frequency. LEDs can be in several different frequency bands, and makes them harder or impossible to remove, even if there is less overall "light pollution" from them.

I live in a purple area (one step brighter than black - none or close to none) on the pollution maps and even so, when a nearby city switched to LEDs for the "main drag" it made the city lights really apparent even further out than before, about 7 miles further out, due to the high humidity and other local effects.

However i do think that something needs to be done, i lived in a suburb of Los Angeles growing up (quite far though) and i remember being able to see the milky way during the summer when i was allowed to stay up later than usual or play outside later than usual.

No Doubt - - I told my son just 3 hours ago he likely bought his LEAP call options a month or more ago at $5 or single digit stock prices for ~$150 per 100 options x 550 blocks, then he conspired with several deep pockets on wallstreetbets to PUMP Game Stop like never done before in history, earning him like $48 million, but the IRS and the SEC will tripping a path over each other and be knocking on his door very, very soon.

One BIG question was whether he was still employed by Mass Mutual at the time he started this PUMP job, either way, his professional licenses are now the noose around his neck that the Gov't will take all his money and send him off for Shaw Shank Redemption. He would be in MUCH better shape now if he was a simple amateur trader, not licensed.
Your argument appears to be that people under the influence of a drug aren't able to accurately judge its positive benefits due to being intoxicated. But that doesn't really apply if a person is reflecting on an event from years prior, does it?

I believe there is also thought that this concept could get some people in trouble.

There are a fair number of "sounds right but actually aren't" accusations floating around about GME (along with complete garbage[0]); if you know that these are false statements when syaing them (which in some cases is definitely provable), then you could be in a bind.

I agree that it's harder as the project gets bigger, but at the beginning you don't have to worry about that.

Well as we all know, all of computing revolves around Unix, and therefore effectively begins at 1970-01-01.

For sure as far as MVC frameworks go. Those are two of the best. I enjoyed Django when I worked on it. It was enjoyable to work in and had a lot of power. It was clearly a great framework. Also tons of big sites use it. And if a boss somewhere said they wanted the team to use it at some point in the future I would be totally happy about that decision.You cannot go wrong using django in the least as far as I'm concerned.

This is a stunning article. Imagine if everyone focused their deplatforming efforts on sites like this.

- DDOS attacks, if those don't work aggressively go after Cloudflare or their DDOS shield

- Pressure their payment processors to deplatform them

- Get Visa and Mastercard to drop these sites

- Once they have no DDOS shield, pressure their hosting providers to drop them

- Set up landing pages to bump them out of search results

- Aggressively pressure Pinterest et al. to take down any posts with "Ripoff Report" or "Cheat Alert" in the name

A similar playbook to Gab/Parler, but efforts like this would really, tangibly help people and right a serious wrong that can affect anyone, regardless their beliefs or politics.

Which is great until the answer is "nothing worth watching", which is pretty common in my personal experience with my personal tastes (i.e. take this as a valid datapoint, but only a single datapoint).
Note that this post doesn't really cover how to stream media using WebRTC. First and foremost, because WebRTC mandates the use of DTLS to encrypt the RTP flow, thus a plain RTP stream won't work. A more apt title would be "How to use FFmpeg to generate an encoded stream that happens to match the requirements for WebRTC".

Still, thanks for the article; it is always interesting to see specific applications of the FFmpeg command line, because in my opinion after having read them top to bottom, FFmpeg docs are very lacking in the department of explaining the whys.

Random example: You read the docs of genpts and it is something on the line of "Enables generation of PTS timestamps". Well, thank you (/s) But really, when should I use it? What does it actually change between using it or not? What scenarios would benefit from using it? Etc. Etc.

I'm playing devil's advocate here. But Python has a ton of useful libraries that other languages don't have. I'm fully aware you can access those libraries in a serverless function or via docker. But some people may just want all of that native to the code to keep things super streamlined.
The UK is a small country. Their "Britain first" clause, in absolute terms, has little impact.

If the EU had done the same with the Pfizer/BionTech vaccine, then the only countries with any vaccination success would have been the US, the EU, and whoever made a deal with either China or Russia (assuming efficacy there).

The EU has a moral obligation to supply the world, given that the BionTech vaccine was the first to be available and still is the one with the highest success rate.

So, personally, I am glad that the EU did not follow the UK with an exclusivity contract. It would have been a literal disaster for many countries, including the UK.

I am less happy about the EU's reaction. There is really nothing to be done right now, AZ played the UK and EU against each other. The EU should remember this - and also the UK's "Britain first" contracting very well indeed. However, this grandstanding and sable-rattling is unbecoming and will accomplish nothing.

Several British people, even here, don't even acknowledge that the overwhelming success of the UK's vaccine efforts are in large part due to a vaccine funded, developed and produced in the EU, and the EU's unwillingness (or inability) to prioritize its own population. In turn, they also don't acknowledge the qualitative difference of the UK's priority contracting with their own vaccine.
Lacking such perspective, how would one perceive the idiocy that the EU now perpetrates?

What is happening now is a diplomatic disaster. The EU should have just published the numbers of how much vaccine was sent elsewhere, how much of the vaccine successes are due to doses produced in the EU, how the "trade balance" of vaccines looks between different countries (say with the UK), and how the EU's deficient vaccine program can be seen in that light.
Then, the reader could eventually draw their own conclusion about the moral and ethical behavior of certain countries in a global pandemic.

No matter what AZ did, cutting large parts of the world off from the main supply of the most efficient vaccine is still not justifiable. And threatening this is simply absurd. Yet, the EU commission did just that.
That's the shameful part.

The naive contracts are not, at least not in the bigger picture.
> We find that GeForce Now and Stadia use the RTP protocol to stream the multimedia content, with the latter relying on the standard WebRTC APIs. They result in bandwidth-hungry and consume up to 45 Mbit/s, depending on the network and video quality. PS Now instead uses only undocumented protocols and never exceeds 13 Mbit/s.

Is this relevant without comparing the picture quality?
I’ve been playing Watchdogs: Legion on geforce now for over a month and I’m extremely happy with it. I play from my ipad with a wireless xbox one controller. Quality is really good and I only see some stutters very rarely. I’ve played other games with the same experience. I would love to see SFV but I imagine the lag might make it a bad experience. all the games I tried were single player first/3rd person view and lag was not noticeable, I’m assuming there’s a lot of input prediction happening, but even in menus things were instantaneous.
(The quoted paragraph is no longer in the article. But I'm still curious about it.)

> Therefore, the parameter -force_key_frames expr:gte(t,n_forced*4) is needed, which produces a key frame every 4 seconds.

How often would you like it to be producing key frames? My video experience is mostly with security cameras, and the ones I've used produce an I-frame every 2 seconds by default. Their encoders don't seem to be real high-quality; sometimes there's visible pulsing where the image will get worse until the next I-frame, so I wouldn't want to increase the interval much beyond that.

> WebRTC solves this problem using the RTP Control Protocl (RTCP). When a new user consumes a stream, they send a Full Intra Request (FIR) to the producer. When a producer receives this request, they insert a keyframe into the stream. This keeps the bitrate low while ensuring all the users can view the stream.

I'm writing an NVR that does live streaming with HTML5 Media Source Extensions, sending one-frame .mp4 fragments over a WebSocket connection. My approach to this problem is different: when a new client connects, I send them everything since the last key frame. IIRC there's more data in the I-frame than in the (up to 2 seconds of) P-frames since then, so this seems to work pretty well. If there were only an I-frame (say) every minute, I'd probably look at that inserting a keyframe approach...there is an ONVIF command to insert a key frame IIRC.
On all XMPP server implementations I've worked with, the push notifications mechanism supports (and usually defaults to) not including any message body in the API call to the push server. Usually it's also possible to leave out the sender name/JID, e.g. with prosody's mod_cloud_notify.
I think it might be that some terms are ambiguous, and people have either been tripped up by it, or have exploited it, so the next time someone brings it up, they are on guard.

And like "truth", you have "justice" and "freedom".

For example, you can have a judge and a defendant both talking about justice with two radically different mental maps in their heads. And a year down the road you talk to the defendant and he might have updated his mental map and ask for clarification.

The one that annoys me is "advertising" which people view as benign pictures showing up on their browser, but might really be extremely invasive surveillance and profiling of everyone.
HPDI support on Linux is terrible. After stuggling to make it work consistently accross various applications on my Dell XPS 13 with HDPI screen, I conciously choose my next laptop to have just HD screen. I am so happy as everything is finally working normally.
I guess it comes down to latency requirements?

I would expect where latency isn’t a huge concern, the best user experience would be to start the new receiver back at the last keyframe and fill the buffer up to “present” so they can start watching instantly, and keep a few seconds in the buffer for stability.

In more latency critical streams where you still want the perception of instant video startup I suppose you would have to start at the last keyframe and then as soon as the next key frame came through you could just jump ahead.
But how many apps have only one view? That a single view is only 100 lines doesn't solve the maintainability problem when you have dozens of views.

What was that bit again?

"The whole point of protesting is to make ppl uncomfortable.

Activists take that discomfort w/ the status quo & advocate for concrete policy changes. Popular support often starts small & grows.

To folks who complain protest demands make others uncomfortable... that’s the point."

There were no problems shutting down freeways this summer. I wonder why?
Personally I think protesting is ok but they should be moved so that they’re not blocking people who are trying to inoculate themselves.

Is it not possible for the police to kind of guide them to protest in areas where they don’t block the others?

I suppose one could argue that their message requires them to block the people. I guess it’s tricky.

Normally I’d be all for the civil disobedience but Covid is a uniquely time sensitive issue in that the longer we wait more people die.
> Truth is somewhere in between

In current case it’s not somewhere in between, it’s just my way or highway kind.

If you understand the nuances, India has many special laws for every community like Muslim, in India there is a Hindu marriage act which has many inconsistency so your point 3 is not correct. All those reforms are targeted at specific community to promote a narrative which follows dictatorial style to follow a specific Hindu way of living (inspired by Nazi, supremacy of Aryans).

India is in a downward spiral on every measure which matters like mal-nourishment, infant mortality , poverty (i.e. HDI), education, economic development, healthcare even before COVID-19. This is made worse by the pandemic. This is not somewhere in between enough research and UN data is available to verify it. Neighbouring countries of India did much better in many parameters.

Current protests of farmers are a result of disrespecting India’s diversity and consensus based approach. If you look at the actual text of the reforms there are two sides and government should have put this text for consultations and than accommodated the changes. They didn’t go through the process, just diluted it and rammed through the reforms taking advantage of pandemic lockdowns.

You can read many accounts how constitutional safeguards were diluted or twisted to pass many so called reforms, this is the reason of widespread prolonged outrage. There might be some vested interest trying to take advantage of this, but that’s due to authoritarian non-consensus based approach.

> But history would suggest that, as a general rule, it is not a great idea to hand extremely large amounts of power and control to a few entities who are only beholden to (and whose only real aim is to) generate money for investors.

I’d like to see this general rule somewhere. People say it often, and cite a few examples, but nothing that amounts to a general rule that I have seen.

Also, it’s simply not true that these companies only real aim is to generate money from investors. If you look at the incentive structures for the people involved, that starts to look like an untenable position. For example there are a lot of subject matter s experts whose incentive is to build careers based on their contributions and expertise - e.g. Chris Lattner. This is just one example of how this reductive idea of what a company is simply breaks down. Certainly some companies - usually financial ones - have no other goal, but outside of the financial sector this is just not true.

And really - the companies we’re talking about have only had this ‘power’ for just over a decade, and frankly all of their products, Google, Apple, and Facebook are quite lacking.

There is no room to compete head to head with them, but plenty of room to innovate and compete in way that they are simply under delivering.

The EU is in a position where none of these things can be fixed now.

The fact that the vaccine was developed in the UK and is produced in the UK can not be an argument. In light of the UK's reliance on the EU vaccine, all this does is show the UK contract with AZ as ethically deficient.

After all, the EU is currently the only supplier for the UK for the Pfizer vaccine - the one that kickstarted the UK's early success. How would the UK's vaccine program look now, if the EU had acted similarly from the start?

Sure, the EU could have mandated exactly this last year. But they shouldn't have. It would have been wrong and morally despicable.

The EU SHOULD now deal with their choices with grace. They don't, which is the real shame.

But if you are British and feel smug about your government's cunning, then I seriously doubt your moral compass.
