Don't confuse politicians with "everyone". To be honest, being an east coast transplant on the west coast, I was shocked that no one remembered Trump during the Clinton era, or when he was pulling real estate cons. Either way, this isn't the place for me to get into politics. I hope that isn't what this forum becomes.

P.S. Everyone is bitter about how the "older generation" handled things without the lens of modern values. I'm Gen X and we were angry all the time.

EDIT: phone changed east to easy. They are not equal.
No they are not. People claim they have them. I simple don't believe them.

People usually have problems when they have bad hardware, gunked driver installs. As for the overhead of Windows. Linux and Windows benchmarks on games (from many many sites, even places like phoronix) show that framerates on games that have native versions of each are about the same.
I think you misunderstand the ECS pattern. You want:

class DrawSystem{
Draw(DrawComponent)
}

With some mapping of DrawComponent to MyEntity. That mapping would most likely NOT be in the MyEntity class definition.

Or you can put the DrawComponents on the Draw system and simply track mapping back to the MyEntity instance they correspond to. New code lives in the systems.

In a game you'd have some kind of scene system that could track what entity has what components and then you don't even need a MyEntity class at all. You wouldn't track that composition in a class.

The sugar that Rust is bringing is that it feels like the implementation is being added to the instance instead of an external system outside it, but you can make that work in C# with some extension methods. It would be nicer if/when C# gets extension interfaces.
It did mention videos. That makes me think they're deep fakes.
Electric trams of the era used essentially large resistors banks and series parallel switching to control power. I expect it was much the same for electric cars, perhaps tapping off or rewiring part of the battery bank. The total amount of power probably made simple on-off control almost practical anyway.
I think a nominal fee is necessary to ward off bots. $1 to potentially get your site listed someplace where like-minded people might see it is not bad.

The majority of these sites will never have enough content to rank in the top 10 for some query on search engines. And if you're not top 10, your site is essentially invisible.

without some kind of old-school directory/webring structure that users can peruse, the odds of people continuing to make and share personal websites (that aren't shilling a course or product affiliate links) will dwindle to nothing.

Just today, I discovered this site by pure chance: http://ratbehavior.org/PawPaintingRats.htm

An extremely information-dense site about rats, hand-coded sometime in the '90s and last updated in 2012. A site like this to me is fascinating, but increasingly a very rare breed.

Not so. Traumatic events can cause an acute stress disorder that begins immediately after the event, while post-traumatic stress disorder by definition has a latency of at least six months.
There is absolutely no need for gravitomagnetism to explain the bullet cluster.

If it accounts for rotation curves, or even just a substantial fraction of rotation curves, that's a box checked: GR and (those) galaxies' rotation turn out consistent after all.

Then it will be DM's problem to explain why DM shows up only where a fudge is needed.

My expectation is that the universe will not cease to mystify for a long time. We can live with the Bullet Cluster losing its (maybe too-) convenient explanation.
AMD's drivers are built into mainline Linux, and Nvidia's drivers are basically just the Windows ones with a different kernel module. I've honestly had a better experience with AMD cards on Linux than I have on Windows.

That's too much assuming, btw I read in this thread a comment from a well-known Nim dev working in multithreading (with much knowledge on the subject) and it was downvoted to oblivion.
The traditional way to do this would be something like building a domestic search engine and levying steep taxes on foreign ad buys, rather than this bizarre attempt at backhanded protectionism.
I remember it like it was yesterday. Before App Stores and widespread Internet access software had to ship relatively feee of bugs. There was no “We’ll fix it in post”. When you bought a game you got a physical copy of it, not a revocable license to an online service. Software wasn’t blocked from running on your device because the creators’ political views differed from the manufacturer.

Best of all, when you purchased software it went directly to the developer instead of a rent-seeking middle-man like Apple or Google. Even security was better, because you weren’t forced to connect your computer to the Internet to use it. Yes, I’d say those days were an improvement over what we have now!
This is sadly spreading... you have a thing, that is old, well tested, and works (and had worked for years).... but someone wants to reimplement this same thing in Rust, or whatever language of the day, because it's "safer" than (eg.) C... so you get something that has 40% of the features of the old software, 20% of the features that were done with another standard software, and one or two really important features missing.... but developer and distro-makers don't care, because it's "modern" and written in Rust (or whatever).
Photonicinduction's 10-second kettle[1] doesn't use a battery, instead it uses his 100A 240V input through a big variac to run at 10kW (440V, 22.7A). This isn't good for the longevity of the kettle he used, sadly.

I don't know that they've addressed your concerns but they're one of the few organizations publicly documenting their thought process, what they've reviewed, rejected, and accepted.

The crux of the problem is going to be finding someone or some organization who cares about preserving information on that timeline. Aside from a non–profit the only pragmatic option is a governmental organization or NGO of some sort, with all of the attendant problems that come with that.

No capitalist based corporation is going to be able to make a 500 year commitment when the CEO and board are evaluated on quarterly returns.
The best pilots most certainly use instruments when in clouds, storms or nighttime.

The trick with startups is that half the time you don't know you're in the clouds until too late. Especially in companies with immature reckoning of what customers are costing you, how growth is actually going and what users are doing, it's easy to hit a mountainside before you even realize you're off course.

It's worth pointing out that most KPI dashboards tend to be simply bad, and people tend mismatch their metrics to their cadence (eg looking at total numbers in a nightly email or quarterly numbers in a weekly kpi dashboard). Stop me before I rant for 20 pages on whether KPIs in the wild actually have anything to do with predictive performance of a function vs a backward looking number of convenience.
Sure it's written about all the time.

Interesting perspective, thanks for sharing.
OpenSSL had its own memory-recycling allocator, which made the bug guarantee leaking OpenSSL's own data. Of course leaking random process memory wouldn't be safe either, but the custom allocator added that extra touch.
Agreed. Inter is one of my favorites to use on web stuff.

Coming up with a new threadsafe queue design is worthy of a paper even though it's just enqueueing and dequeueing items.

You've been overposting about this. It has become repetitive, and you're starting to reliably generate "here comes the nano shill" comments in every thread. While accusations of shilling are against the site guidelines, posting predictably like this is also against the intended use of the site.

Also, these Bitcoin flamewars are supremely boring. They're exciting in an activating/agitating sort of way, but they aren't intellectually interesting. You're not the only user responsible for that, of course, but you're contributing way too much to it.

I had a look, and it feels like template programming but with even worse guarantees.

Having a type declaration dependent on #define P whether it is plain old data or not, and needing to know what that means, is not the kind of ergonomics I'd want. That requires learning a whole new paradigm to ensure I am not doing wrong things.

In my mind it is so big an extension of the C language, that it leaves the C headspace and becomes its own headspace.

A nice comparison. So for Bitcoin we acknowledge the fixed gain but for our planet the gain is limitless, steaks, cars, and heating.
Indeed wasn't Germany the first to stop them from pulling this shit? We in the US allow our advertisers to lie to us about any- and everything, and they wonder why we hate advertising in general.

If your graphics are atypically simple, it hardly matters.

For the vast majority of games that compete on graphics, you need to use modern APIs to take advantage of modern GPUs.

When looking at all HTTP headers, after so many years of probably doing the same, I realized that Referrer was misspelled. This wikipedia entry has some details on why, mostly attributable to the fact that ispell (?) did not recognize either word at the time.

> More work gets done in a dedicated space for work, surrounded by other people engaged in related work

I don't think that first part ("dedicated space for work") is so significant.

In my experience working remotely answering bug bounty reports, what most helped with working was the presence of a chat channel containing the rest of the team. It was used, in part, to discuss or ask for help with difficult reports, but primarily for making fun of stupid reports. (One of my favorites in this category being "If I zoom in too far on your mobile app, the text starts to become blurry.")

That might not sound especially productive, but you can't do it if you're not looking at the reports. You could view the channel more abstractly as providing irregular notifications of the form "I just did some work" -- participating requires you to do some work, and that helps you keep working.

I thought so too, but then I re-read the article and the original report linked from the article, and they both seem to use “video” and “photo” interchangeably. Whenever specifics are given, though, it’s always a photo. Despite the headline, the reports provide no evidence that there were actual videos involved, AFAICT.
The word is misrepresenting the problem of synchronization and reducing to only memory safety.

You would probably agree that the point of a start-up is to learn, i.e. to validate hypotheses as quickly as possible. That's what KPIs are meant to track.

I'm not sure what you mean by "Rubik's cubes or 99% of complex challenges". Do you mean actual Rubik's cubes? Are they not fairly well-understood now? Here's a 3-year-old girl solving a Rubik's Cube in 47 seconds. That's a pretty clear Key Performance Indicator.

There are two drivers at work here:
- Luring customers to buy your brand (and not someone else’s)
- Enticing customers to upgrade (think cars jam packed with undesirable features).

It’s very easy to list features, whereas a good portion of your list is harder to quantify; or taken for granted until it’s bought.

Another standard practice is to stuff more “smart” settings; that also drives up cost so corners are cut elsewhere (or now, your information is sold; I’m looking at you, Neato).

As long as consumers let themselves get fooled by this, this will continue on.
We have more space, so US auto manufacturers used the space differential to change the dynamics of the market. Small cars have been removed from the situation by the SUV Wars. They were able to shift the Overton Window so they are no longer a valid answer.

I think you're technically correct, but that's not how these games used those graphics modes.

A game with "CGA graphics", used the 320x200 mode, which had one of two fixed four-colour palettes, red/green/yellow/black or cyan/magenta/white/black. It was godawful.

A game with "EGA graphics" used the 320x200 mode, and the 16 colour fixed palette. This mode overlapped perfectly with graphics modes on the Atari ST and the Amiga 500, which allowed game developers to make games that looked exactly the same on all three.

So all the classic LucasArts games, from Maniac Mansion to Monkey Island simply ran on a port of SCUMM on each platform, and re-used the graphics assets straight up.

Sierra did the exact same thing in this era, they had their own game engine, and games like Police Quest II, Quest for Glory and King's Quest IV looked exactly the same on all three platforms.
Hi HN!

A survey with over 200 responses reveals why product research is broken and how we can fix it.

We analyzed the results and discovered some interesting findings.

Product research, a necessary task for purchases, should be a breeze. Unfortunately, it's not. There are many points of frustration, but these are the biggest ones:

- Fake reviews
- Sponsored content / Ads
- It takes time
- Inconsistent metrics and info across sites
- Lack of long term use information
- Availability in my country

I'm sorry that Discord streaming doesn't work for you. It sounds like an isolated issue judging from the reactions of other commenters here, perhaps you should contact Discord? And as for Windows, I honestly don't know what you're going for here. Yes, games run "fine" on Windows, we are in agreement here. Many games also run "fine" on Linux, and that has been my argument from the start. If your concession is "it runs fine if you aren't tech savvy", then it sounds like this whole point is moot and we're back to square one.
I'm worried about State-grade tech...and with that political propaganda power.
That all depends on the player.

I has a SONY car changer for a decade or so. It was made in the 90's.

It played everything near perfectly. Seriously. I took scotch brite to a promo disc once, and it still played, the only difference being about a 2x buffer time to get started and a bit more sensitivity to road bumps.

I have never owned anything as good.

It played discs I could not rip a track from.

In my view, and based on that experience, the format was way more robust than most of us experienced in practice.

Cost cutting on the error correction and laser handling had a negative impact on overall robustness to a fault.

That SONY was so good, I could go to the street market and buy discs a few for a buck and nearly all of them played well. I got asked how I was playing them regularly by the vendors selling me a lot of cheap, too scratched to work discs.
