I see this mistaken assumption repeated everywhere by people unfamiliar with the display technology industry. You can attend display conferences and see lots of startups trying to make stable displays. The limitation is not patents. You can ask a simple question to prove this to yourself. Which E Ink patent is blocking progress and will suddenly cause the industry to become amazing after the patent runs out? At best, you'll get lazy answers like ALL of E Ink's patents.

Not sure if this is a good example of "know how to build dams". It's a dam foolish design, built on an earthquake fault zone that's been made unstable by the excavation that's being done to build the dam. The design has been changed to include this ridiculous earthfill section (https://www.sitecproject.com/about-site-c/site-c-project-com...) to compensate for the weirdness of the geography there. It's probably going to fail catastrophically at some point and destroy a lot of homes downstream from it, and the controversy over the project basically caused the downfall of BC's last government.

Right, but your experience is rather different from that of many players, especially console players.

I played it on PS4 and while I mostly able to enjoy the game with only minor issues, there definitely were many issues and I could imagine some people aren't as tolerant towards bugs as I was for a game they paid full price for.

My experience has been roughly this: every 4 hours, the game crashes. Guaranteed. Luckily I haven't lost more than a few minutes of gameplay, between auto saves and just saving very regularly. I have a lot of bugs related to content not loading in quickly enough: eg I can pass through objects/people (including doors!) before they load properly. This has occasionally meant I got into a place I shouldn't have causing me to have to reload (eg one mission you were meant to interact with the doorbell, but I glitched into the building by passing through the not-yet loaded door. Now I was stuck because the doorbell triggered the next part of the mission and I was now behind a closed door. I had to reload). I have experienced tons of audio glitches (subtitles not disappearing, audio playing on top of other audio especially multiple phone messages, etc). I have experienced tons of physics glitches, floating people/objects/cars. I've had at least one mission where a door wouldn't open (I actually "fixed" this by glitching through the door and opening it from the inside... I checked online and yes, it was definitely meant to open from the outside). I've experienced lots of times where things just weren't there and eventually loaded in and just appeared: objects, people, items people were holding (eg guitarists), cars.

I've also seen bugs other people have hit: lots of physics and animation issues (eg T poses, I haven't personally experienced many of those), corrupted saves, missions that couldn't be completed, performance issues much worse than what I've noticed (mine mostly plays well enough).

So, count yourself lucky that you only had one bug where you had to reload!

Even with the bugs I hit, I still enjoyed the game a lot, and didn't have it as bad as what many people report.

Are you familiar with Photoshop etc workflows? Krita is pretty similar to those, whereas Gimp is the outlier in UI/UX.

This was a joke based on Google's tendency to suddenly shut down popular products ;) I had no negative experience with its Cloud so far.
I agree with you. Editing a direct quote should be a last resort, with a light touch, and only to provide clarity. Editing quotes for grammatical correctness is going too far, especially if the meaning is self evident to most readers. For the given example, it probably doesn't require editing. If rather Billy-Jo Bob was shouting to his neighbor Joanne about her house being on fire, then yes, adding that context is helpful, and wouldn't be apparent from the quote itself.

From what I've read, SMT gives about 20-30% more performance. So 4 cores * 1.3 is 5.2, so 6 cores should still be faster.
> Accurate positioning is needed

Accurate timing is also needed to shift and combine the signals from the various dishes.

> often be achieved to within a couple of meters using google maps and a sat image of your back yard.

Position accuracy requirements are fractions of the wavelength being observed. So for this 11.2 GHz dish (26.8 mm), the position of the dish needs to be known to much better than 2mm.

In practice this can be done by observing a bright source with a well-known sky position and then solving for the antenna positions. Aspects of this are discussed in Memo 503 from the Atacama Large Millimeter Array Memo series. http://legacy.nrao.edu/alma/memos/html-memos/alma503/memo503...

A new report by the Brennan Center for Justice, released on Monday, reveals that legislators in 33 states have introduced 165 bills to restrict voting rights. This is not typical. At this time last year, just 35 bills to restrict voting had been introduced. Many of this year's bills are rooted in the same lies Trump used to claim the election was stolen — and sponsored by the state officials who backed Trump's efforts to reverse the results of the election.

The war on mail-in voting
As more Americans avoided crowded public spaces during a pandemic, mail-in voting "constituted nearly half the votes cast in the 2020 election," a significant increase from previous years. But the process was "a remarkable success," which was "less prone to errors than expected and had almost no documented fraud."

What’s the proof of that? There are enough probe points for them to gather data. For example, iCloud push notifications must give them some data on your activity in apps that they don’t control. They’ll have some idea of the apps you use and how frequently which is enough behavioral data to do targeted advertising if they wanted to in the future.

Now you may say that some data collection is unavoidable given the nature of the device (eg push messaging) but that’s often also true of other company’s products.

"14 bills in nine states would make the 'excuse' requirement more stringent for absentee voting or eliminate 'no excuse' mail voting." In Pennsylvania, for example, HB25 would repeal no-excuse absentee voting, which was passed with bipartisan support in 2019. The sponsor of the legislation, Representative Michael Puskaric (R), said he introduced the bill because of "mass confusion and mail-in ballot irregularities" and concern "about election fraud through this mail-in ballot system." One of the bill's co-sponsors, Representative Jim Gregory (R), signed a letter to Pennsylvania's Congressional delegation, urging them "to object, and vote to sustain such objection, to the Electoral College votes received from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania during the Joint Session of Congress on January 6, 2021."

> I don't have any TAs, professors, peers etc to ask or grade my stuff when working my way through a text book in my spare time. How can I be sure I understood stuff correctly?

I definitely agree with you on this. However, there are three things self-learners (or even students) can do.

1. Find a textbook with worked solutions or a different presentation of material.

2. Look for course material that has problem sets with solutions, worked tutorials, or worked examples.

3. Learn numerical or other methods to evaluate your solutions. I know this isn’t possible for proofs, but if it’s an algorithm’s run time, I don’t see how implementing the algorithm and plotting run times over different input sizes wouldn’t be a good way to see if you have the correct run time.

Amazon reviews could potentially be salvageable. The way I see it, their problem is that items sell more when they have a plurality of reviews, so there's a disincentive for the platform to take down positive reviews (because they drive revenue). But Amazon is a platform that depends on repeat business (hence the existence of Prime) so it also has an incentive to ensure that the totality of a product's reviews give a useful idea of the product's pros and cons.

On the other hand, sites that let you remove bad reviews or showcase good ones are running a 21st-century protection racket.
Absolute positioning is not that important as long as the relative positions are constant to within a small fraction of the wavelength, in this case to within a millimeter. Which is feasible if you mount it to the side of a building and there isn't too much wind.

The much bigger problem is that you need a very accurate clock. Much better than what you can get from a GPS receiver.

And lose the blockchain bullshit.
Workstations aren't just load every core up at 100% and see how it runs. That would be a server like workload. Yet nearly every benchmark in this article is for the most part just a core count test.

People use their workstations for office/web browsing/etc tasks, so a large part of the workload continues to be single threaded. Which is why the Threadripper exists at all (its a epyc with faster single threaded perf).

So a good workstation is one that does well with both single threaded as well as multhreaded workloads. So to ignore the other half of the desktop workload performance doesn't give a complete picture.

How much have you played?

It seems that applied postmodernism takes a very anti-materialist stance that rankles left wing (old school) progressives and centrist liberals as well. Standpoint Theory and Social Constructivism contradict materialist conceptions of knowledge and power, and they contradict classical liberal ideals of progress.

Also, we often see criticisms of social constructivism as "alt right" and the evidence for this are people who are on the right. But there are plenty of people on the Left as well who criticize applied postmodernism and it seems they get swept up unfairly in labels.
You seem to have exaggerated the 'stands' you give as examples. The problem with that is that I'm instantly reminded of all those times where I've seen critics of some 'Thinkers' accuse them of taking 'stands' like these, and after more or less digging (depending on of unpopular they were) it indeed ended up being either words taken out of context, or just strawmen.

Numerical Elixir? Exciting news! I wish it would be something like Numpy. It would be awesome.
As someone who started a few years earlier, and speaking as full-stack programmer, as it's called today, I can tell you it was always like that - an ever increasing complication graph. However, I like it. I don't miss the tcl, perl, coldfusion, php files all mixing everything up. I don't miss FTP as a means of deployment. I don't miss configuring the first Apache webserver, or setting up the Sun servers and using csv text files as databases.

I embrace the complexity because it's there for a reason. Most of it. Some of it at least. It solves problems we already forgot we had. And it's cyclical. We'll soon forget what the problem was, go back to square one, and given some time arrive back to where we are today and then some.

My advice - embrace the complex, reject the complicated.
The Mac OS That Can't Be Tweaked
Some Clarence Thomas quotes would be nice too, preferably with context.
very good take here, and it gets to the heart of the issue: Chomsky comes out of the analytic tradition where the goal is to rigorously explain and define everything that can't quite be pinned down by mathematical symbolization. French intellectual traditions owe way more to existentialism and phenomenology, where the goal is rather to understand experiences in new, historically appropriate ways. the latter partakes, even where Foucault, for instance, is apparently undertaking a historical analysis, far more of poetic language, because the thinking is "we here in history are disclosing the historically unthought that everyone before us couldn't see"

Not really; it's their data, and you're allowed to use it.

Yes it does, because while you (the individual) are allowed under GDPR to use the personal data of your friends for personal purposes, that doesn't automatically entitle Facebook to use it for their purposes. Only on your behalf for your purposes.
Casting the trend as a religion is rather the humanist thing to do of course so I'll just ignore that useless categorization

Systemic racism is real, but if you're just looking at Twitter and headlines you'll never pierce the insight that its anonymous network of individual behaviors that, at scale, have real effects; this is no different than thinking about the economy, which we're perfectly comfortable with as a reification of the tremendous graph of individual behaviors.
It stands to reason that most papers will not be impressive, so even if the filter is biased it likely has some sort of value.

In the same way that you described reddit communities, HN is essentially a tech bubble.

Eth2's design supports staking pools though, so it just takes ~$20 to participate, depending on the pool. Granted, some of the staking rewards go to the node operator, but it's a competitive market, so the difference should be comparable to the costs of operating a node.

There are also some sharded PoS designs where staking can be done in a really lightweight manner -- the process can be mostly idle, and only sync when it's the user's turn to do something -- even on a mobile device.
