There comes a point where you need a minimum amount of money before you can tell if something is working. If you spent 10 cents on advertising, that would be pretty meaningless.
This decomp is the basis for a Super Mario 64 native port to the 3DS. It's really incredible work that was done here.
No, that is selective quoting of case law in support of a narrative. There are significant due process hurdles and evidentiary standards of "threat to public safety" in this same case law that are ignored here because they are inconvenient to the argument but nonetheless part of that same judicial precedent.

A thorough reading of that case law makes it plain that the proposals with respect to COVID would never pass judicial muster. In fact, there is considerable case law where attempts at such prohibitions were rejected outright but little curiosity in the above link as to the conditions and circumstances that caused the courts to throw them out.

The government knows that the courts won't allow them to cherrypick and selectively quote case law. It isn't an accident that every State in the US, across the entire political spectrum, came to the same policy conclusion regarding freedom of travel.
On Mac I finally got the example to run had to brew install glew and glfw3 and change the makefile to point to the include and lib paths. A lot of the interactions don't seem native, for example tap to click doesn't work, I have to do hard clicks on my Mac. Also dragging doesn't seem to work like other apps, it stops dragging if go outside the boundaries of the element. Overall this is pretty epic and I wonder if serious alternatives to XCode and JS based wrappers like Electron are possible.
Seriously, the nonchalance in that phrasing is really off putting.

Interesting, thanks for letting me know!
And the price for it is China being able to shut down a big chunk of your multi-trillion dollar economy with a few pen strokes.

Look for example how SMIC sanctions effectively shut down the car industry, and few others.

A murmur I heard is of US now backing off on SMIC because of the car industry, but that will send an even worse precedent.

It will mean that nobody else will come and fill the SMIC niche, and it will still have a chokehold on a very well moneyed, and full of lobbyists industry.

The next time, sanctions on SMIC may come not from US, but China itself.
Looking at the raw data [0], cases reported on Saturday/Sunday are a little higher than last week, but the weekday cases rates match up week to week. Seems more plausible it's just noise in the data to me, but time will tell.

The actual power is in the hands of the elites, so a minority. Just because you happen to be a part of the largest demographic group doesn't mean you hold any power. For example, would you say the same thing about Africa back when it was under white rule?
Almost definitely not, but it still shows that pilots aren't too concerned about engine outs to the point where it's an automatic mayday, especially on a four engined planes. I wouldn't have shared the anecdote if it hadn't violated my preconceptions.

What MCU are you using? Have you run into issues with shortages? I'm asking since I'm also developing an e-paper product, for a different purpose. Are you doing full refreshes each update? Seems like it would be OK in this use, since the content doesn't change often.

You mentioned batteries as a complexity-adder: I agree, but ideally, this makes sense as a battery-powered device. It should be capable of running for a very long time on a few AA or AAAs. (The limitation being internet connectivity for refreshing) The advantage is reduced cable clutter, and flexibility in where it goes. Maybe for a second edition, as not to delay release.

There’s really nothing to infer - it’s in the public record. Keeping black people out of white neighborhoods (towns even) has been policy for generations in America.

Including where you live. Real estate is devalued in Prince Georges County because its population is largely black. Why is it largely black? Because white flight.

Public transportation in the US is inefficient because it is underutilized even where it exists (nyc notwithstanding). Riding a bus carries stigma that is racial as well as economic and this leads to transportation systems that few use, reinforcing a notion that they are wasteful and inefficient.

The true metric for comparison is not what a public transportation system costs to build, but how many people per capita use it. That’s where Americans show their stripes.

I’ve lived and ridden public transportation in Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Texas, Germany, Japan and NYC. This is a sociological problem, not a technical or financial one.

Not in this context. When "let's not base our judgements on race" is responded with "you're a privileged white male", we're never going to reach any agreement. It's simply not going to happen.
Most people did not know about the Holocaust until after WW2 started.
The US produces 2,000 metric tons of nuclear waste per year. There's also about 90,000 metric tons in storage.

Falcon Heavy is the most cost effective rocket in operation. For $90M it can send 8 tons to GTO (its harder to get things into the sun but the numbers are available for GTO).

So just the launching would cost would be $22.5B per year. And it would be $1T to take care of the existing waste. But that's way too low because transporting the waste and preparing it for launch would be very expensive in itself.
I've worked in over twenty languages in my career, and you can't pay me to work with PHP anymore, even though there was a brief period where I thought it was the best thing ever as a new programmer. But that's just an artist being picky about his tools.

What matters with a startup is executing, and that means using tools that let you execute well. If you're most familiar with PHP and MySQL, then that's what you should use.

As someone biased against your tech stack, I fully support your decision and think the expert and the investor have no idea what really matters, hence I stand by that they're a bad investor.
Where did I claim that I was the right person to judge this for all of society? I make these choices for myself by choosing what types of people I associate with, and I am a tiny part of making this decision for society at large by voting.

In my opinion, society is more tolerant when we do not let the intolerant people hijack it to spread intolerance. In other words, intolerance is some of that "bad behavior" that should at least be softly prevented. I am expressing this opinion on this discussion board in the hope that other people will agree with me and maybe even change their minds slightly (or maybe I'll have my mind changed instead!).
Yep. Dropped the entire verse and a chorus.
I understand that reckoning with racism is uncomfortable, but I don't understand how that 99 percent invisible episode is a personal attack on you. If anything, it's a reminder that well intensioned design (saving downtown) can have consequences (increased policing of Black men).

I have seen and listened to a lot of race-conscious content over the last few years. As a white man, I can't say I've taken any of it as a personal attack. I'd be happy to talk more about this out of thread.
Tell them you're thinking if you want to do it or not... see what their response is.

After that you need to be willing to explain that "I appreciate your interest, but I want to keep my side project separate from work" and take whatever comes next (if anything).

How fires have spread to previously untouched parts of the world
The sanctions on SMIC were imposed by the US which incentivized a stock piling and cut global supply. So it was US hobbling itself and not Chinas doing.

Instead of this ham fisted approach it needs systemic solutions. For eg - make college free. Make corporations subservient to state planning of strategic priorities.

It’s clear that China has the upper hand as long as US is a bunch of warring corporations that think of the next quarter.

US corporations will eventually force a retreat to protect their Chinese profits. China just needs to offer them some returns. As the largest market in the world they now can.
Boox Poke3 is a 6" e-ink display that runs Android 10, as a general-purpose computing device, and is available for 160 EUR. Since you're selling a significantly less usable device (it only does one thing), I wouldn't want to pay more than 80 EUR for this. It's cute, but... when the price of the product is dominated by the screen, it's hard to sell a single-use device.
> I don’t know if the sort of performance issues I was seeing was tied to SQLite or not though

It's certainly doable to serve million-asset libraries with SQLite (PhotoStructure is proof of this).

You need to be careful with indexed queries and make sure you've set up a large enough RAM cache, but for PhotoStructure, almost all queries are kept under 10-50ms.
Yes. As recently as last month.
Nuclear power plants are absolutely massive, and don't have big wins when it comes to the amount of material needed versus, say, solar. Here's a presentation touting the AP1000, which needs ~5x less concrete than Sizewell B's design (slide 11):

https://web.archive.org/web/20110722031413/http://www.nuclea...

At 2500kg/m^3 of concrete, and excluding the rebar, that's roughly 4.5W/kg of material. For Sizewell B, than's 0.9W/kg.

Meanwhile, a 300W solar panel weighs ~40 pounds, and even if it has massive mounting structures that weigh twice as much as the panel itself, that's 5-10W/kg.

A nuclear powerplant has a lifetime of 40-60 years. Solar panels have warranties of 25 years, but often operate a decade or more longer. Nuclear does not have an "exceptionally long lifetime" in comparison.
Then why would race be relevant? Why would someone not just say "you're too privileged to understand"? Why would they instead say "you're just a privileged white male and don't understand"?

I disagree with that logic you are using. Your logic seems racist to me. You are assuming a black person = less privileged and a white person = more privileged. I view both of these assumptions as racist. I think it is wrong to associate a race with a level or privilege. I think it is wrong to assume someone's race, gender, and level of privilege due to a view someone holds. I think it is even more wrong to then use someone's race and gender to dismiss their points.

If someone is having a discussion what positive effect would calling someone those derogatory (and in my opinion: racist) terms be helpful? It's not going to make me see their point of view. No matter how good of a rebuttal and explanation they may have had for me I am no longer going to care. Once someone is making assumptions and calling you names the whole conversation loses substance and value. This kind of bullshit just continues to propagate further divide and hatred between races.

I think it is perfectly valid to think that maybe someone holds a viewpoint because of their status in life. But I don't think that is a valid reason to attack them. I would rather look at that as an opportunity to exchange views and have a conversation. But unfortunately especially on sites like Reddit I no longer am able to do that. I used to be able to, but now anytime I have a view that is slightly conservative leaning I am called names or called racist. And what's ironic is that I really couldn't give a shit about political sides or parties. I have a lot of views that would be classed as pretty "liberal" while I also have a lot of views that would be classed as pretty "conservative". For some reason there always has to be a divide. It always has to be an Us versus Them mentality.

So people will assume status, race, gender in order to create an imaginary enemy and destroy any conversation that could be had.

Whether you think someone's viewpoint is something typical of a "privileged white male" is not relevant to almost any conversation.

If someone gives me a recipe online I don't assume they are a chef. Nor do I assume they don't know what they are talking about if they are not a chef. Someone being white or a male doesn't imply they are privileged. They may have had a harder life than most black people. I don't like using a stereotype to dismiss what someone else has to say. I think it is incredibly toxic and creates further hatred and divide.

Nobody will ever understand the other "side" if they are viewed like an enemy they can't talk to.

They're used to operating in the physical world. For example, that approach (until very recently) worked quite well for nukes. You can control physical things that cost money.

Obviously this doesn't work for digital information with the internet. You see the same attitude every time they lement that cryptographic doesn't have backdoors. "Oh just make one for us, no one else will know how to use it"

You could probably amend it to "No one in history has ever gone to war against a country they might lose against to stop a genocide."
Would you consider selling it ? If you don't have customers it probably isn't worth much other than it protects them from future lawsuits initiated by you. As a side note, my buddy sold his side project to his employer for $350,000 but granted he had customers. But he also worked on it shamelessly while on the clock and using company equipment and using a sales guy who worked at the company. I sh*t you not.

Funny, at the non-dodgy URL, the opinion is the opposite: https://foreignpolicy.com/2021/02/19/china-uighurs-genocide-...

"Despite the Trump administration’s declaration of a genocide in Xinjiang, upheld by the Biden administration, some legal experts suspect China’s behavior may fall short of actual genocide."

This opinion by those legal experts with their nitpicky definitions of 'actual genocide' is probably related to the absolute lack of any mass casualties. Not that such technical concerns should stand in the way of nationalist rhetoric.
Not going to fully defend the OP but the problem is things like the USSR were, in retrospect, unsustainable. The CCP, on the other hand, may have created just the right blend between totalitarianism, communism, and capitalism that is both sustainable and has global reach. We should not want to end up all-consumed by this form of government given how oppressive it is, and only time will tell just how all-consuming it can become.
You do not need manual version management if you have multiple versions of Python installed. By default, it will use whichever interpreter supported by the application is listed first in PYTHON_TARGETS. If you want, you can override that by calling the python interpreter you want manually, eg `python3.8 <program name>` or `pypy <program name>`. But if python3.9 is the "default" interpreter (because it's listed first) but the application only claims support for python3.8 in the ebuild, if you just run the application with no qualifiers it will start the python3.8 interpreter.

Obviously there were many, many years when python2 and python3 needed to be installed side by side, and it's reasonably common for people to have multiple versions of python3 installed side by side. My VPS has both python3.9 and python3.8 installed side by side, for instance, because apparmor is slow to pick up python3.9 support.
