Surely VGA would have more latency than DP for an LCD? It's gotta convert from digital to analogue and then back to digital again at the other end.

Is the overhead of the protocol really greater than that? (genuine question)

Here’s cupy’s postmortem—
https://github.com/cupy/cupy/issues/4787

Salient points being that cupy releases a new named package for each cuda version, so future package names are of course predictable. Since PyPi doesn’t allow namespacing, cupy’s plan is to register new names ASAP when cuda releases a new version and monitor and report other packages purporting to be cupy that get uploaded.

This is correct. Chandler Carruth gave a talk about unfortunate pessimizations imposed by the ABI. Where the call is inlined, that stuff is optimized out, but functions that take a moved unique_ptr or pimpl object -- taking ownership of a heap object -- tend not to be inlined unless they mostly just pass it along to one that isn't inlined.

So, the cost of moving a smart pointer onto the stack and, presumably, off again to someplace less ephemeral might matter, on a critical path. But it would be a mistake to exaggerate this: we are talking about a couple of unfortunate ordinary memory operations, not traps, function calls, or atomic synchronizations, when you might have hoped to be using just registers. If you are already touching memory -- something pretty common -- it is just more of that.
This article classifies differing opinions into 2 categories, those I like (disagreement) and those I don't like (deniers). The strategies outlined here will further decrease the publics faith in science.
Top Tools That Every Front-End Developer Should Know About

Tangent: a lot of the rocky planets we have found in the universe are larger than Earth.

With Earth's gravity is seems like we are just barely able to make a reusable launch system by pushing the physics of chemical propulsion to its limits. Better technology can only help so much. We are already close to the limits of physics for things like rocket efficiency, material masses, etc.

Make Earth even say 10% bigger than we'd never be able to build reusable chemical rockets. Make it even bigger still and disposable chemical rockets might be infeasible, making nuclear propulsion the only viable way to get out of your gravity well. A nuclear first stage launching from inside your biosphere is not a great idea, and making nuclear rockets reusable is harder than making chemical rockets reusable. Keep increasing gravity and it only gets exponentially harder still. At some point any kind of space flight become impractical even if you're willing to irradiate yourself.

But... make a planet smaller than Earth and pretty soon you start to have trouble holding onto an atmosphere! Look at what happened to Mars.

This could be yet another Fermi paradox answer. Earth may be right on a knife edge between too small to have a long term stable biosphere and too big to get off the thing!

Of course maybe an intelligence would eventually develop a propulsion system that could crawl out of a super-Earth gravity well using something like nuclear fusion or microwave beamed power, so who knows... it's just another possibility.

Given that scientists had essentially zero say in the food pyramid, I fail to see how it's relevant here.
Lastpass is the same way.
In principle I agree.
I certainly don't think they used to be evil, they set out do create a product and brand that stood for safety and security and trust.

I think they've lost focus of that now, their incentives have shifted (maximum cash extraction) and they're also tone-deaf. You just can't add 7 trackers to such a product without losing credibility.

Look, nowadays, some telemetry feedback (aka. trackers) is extremely valuable to iterate quickly and improve your software, also to the benefit of the end-user. What you certainly don't need is seven (7) trackers or to make them compulsory instead of opt-in or at least opt-out. I mean, the amount of "non-evil" stuff you could learn with a tracker in a password manager is certainly so limited that it doesn't justify 7 trackers. Anything above one self-hosted, non-third-party, non-adware telemetry server does seem slightly... evil in this context. ;-)

And if you add 7 trackers AND try to trick me with bait & switch tactics, well then, indeed, you're gonna lose a lot of business. Hope the bit of extra cash they got from people who panicked and didn't have time to set up alternatives was worth it...

> Citi credit-card blocks my card when I was on vacation in Canada and tried to buy shoes from the store.

With my Irish bank, I have to tell them when I plan to use the card abroad otherwise they'll block it. It takes about 30 second through an online form. Since I've had cards skimmed multiple times while traveling I think this is a reasonable precaution, however, they didn't make it very obvious and the first time I found out about it was in Bali airport trying to withdraw money to pay for my visa.
Did any of the studies calculate or estimate the non pathological impact of a lock-down? job and business losses, suicide, tax revenue impact, etc...

I assume they are convex, typically cuboid. This is the type of space you get when each parameter is searched for a certain range.

Surely there could be search spaces that aren't convex. In that case the range of a variable would depend on the values of other variables. If you have an example of such a case I'd be interested in knowing about it.

I would rather see the banners. They're a good indication of how much a company is likely to respect my privacy: no banner is best (because it means they're not tracking), a banner with an easy opt-in and a way to dismiss it is okay, and a banner that doesn't allow an opt-out I'll just leave active forever. It'll annoy me anytime I visit the site, and that's the point; I'll avoid sites that do this when I can.

One example: PayPal has a huge banner (often blocking the "pay now" button) asking for permission to use my data for targeted ads, and there's no way to dismiss it other than agreeing to it. So I leave it there forever, and every time I use PayPal I have a little bit more of a negative impression of it.

It's also good to know about them when I'm sharing links with friends - I'll be very hesitant to share one with someone who I know is using a mobile browser, because they definitely won't have the tools to avoid tracking like this.
I read the headline and thought, hey, isn't this the web site where I've read all those articles about how the BUSINESS of science has been completely perverted by the weird interplay between universities, funding, and journals?

The blinders came off when the majority of people finally saw that you could pay doctors and university researchers -- two of the most respected types of people in the post-war world -- to produce "studies" to show that, say, smoking was GOOD for you, against all data on the subject.

I'm 50. I can't tell you how many headlines I've read over my adult life that flip-flop between eggs being good for you, versus that they're killing you.

In my 4th-grade science textbook, I was told that we were entering a new mini ice age, and that we'd be completely out of oil by the year 2000. (Which kind of sucked, because I was going to be driving by then.)

We all know where the climate thing is now, and I don't hear ANYONE making noises about "peak oil" any more.

THIS is precisely why it's so hard to sell the public on the dangers of climate change. The BUSINESS of science has destroyed their credibility, and they only have themselves to blame.

IANAL and I'm certainly not intimately familiar with French law. However, I think since they're saying Frogwares is in breach and has been ordered by the court to continue the contract that Nacon's course of action here should be to tell the court Frogwares isn't fulfilling the terms of the contract. I don't believe anywhere in the economically developed countries of the world is it okay to decide on your own vigilante solution and pursue it in violation of other laws.
That’s a neat hack. It follows the “tiny habits” philosophy by tapping into workflows you are already using. It does mean you have a permanent records in the history so be careful with the message. Culture of the company may change!
> If your argument for the market economy working in a way that shouldn't inspire paranoia is based on trust and distinguished consumer choice, you've not been paying attention to world news or you're arguing in bad faith.

No, I think you missed the point. It's based on greedy organisations being predictable. Amazon will send stuff we order so that we buy more stuff from them. Electricity grid with zero regulation will fail to invest in preventative measures against extreme events. Trust or distrust arises from the particular game theoretic situation we're talking about. Simply thinking every corporation will screw us at every moment is the paranoia.
Well...there was the small matter of a violent insurrection at the Capitol Building by people who variously: flew the Confederate flag, believed Democrats eat babies, refuse to believe the results of the election, all of which are nonsense beliefs or causes that were magnified on social media.

At some point people in general - and HN in particular - have to decide when to rein in bad actors crying wolf. Otherwise they take over - literally.
Basically everything quanta writes is so good. They have some of the best science writers around in my opinion, and their efforts to make science and discovery accessible to non-experts and the public is admirable. I highly recommend their podcast that breaks down some of the popular stories, as well as "The Joy of X" which are long-form interviews with leading scientists.
Monetization on Vimeo basically requires you to already have a following of some sort to sell subscriptions or pay per view videos. So I've seen some people use Youtube as a funnel to get viewership and send them into other services like Patreon/Vimeo/etc.

I don’t want to drag this more, but it seems like you didn’t get my point at all. All I wanted was for the author to say what happened or at the very least add a sentence in that terse update that more details would follow. If a Twitter thread (which is where this originated) could be written up as a post, certainly one more sentence could be written up in the update (since the author did have time to add an update) so readers would know whether to check again or not for more details. It’s really not too much to ask.

> What is he supposed to do - go hang out with white supremacists?

Do you imply that the only groups in society are liberals and white-supremacists?

This is the problem liberals have...they have to get onboard with all the progressive stuff because they don't realize that everyone else is not a white supremacist as they are told by the NYT.

A lot of Trump support came from former Democrats who realized that they are no longer onboard with the ideals of the modern Democrat party pandering to the Progressives. These people didn't want a traditional religiously crusading Republican - they wanted opposition to identity politics and globalism.

There are good people in the center, and this Peru guy will be fine - but he should have realized a long time ago the NYT is not for people like him.
