I have often used the comparison to early personal computers. The things were mainly switched and lights, but there was potential for where it could go.

I heard that even early Apple people would say "A computer in every household", and people would ask, "What would I do with a computer?" and their best answer was "It's a great way to store and file your recipes."
This effect is indeed strange, and rare, and underlines the severity of the mechanism and the result.

It is mentioned and described somewhat in the Norwegian articles that are linked to. As I understood the Norwegian text, there is severe clotting in unusual places like the brain and stomach, and the blood is effectively left void of platelets. As I understand - as a layman - is that an autoimmune-related reaction causes what I would consider to be an implosion of the platelets.

This is still rare, but it will of course be investigated and we will of course figure out why this happens, and then it probably doesn’t have to happen to anyone! Maybe there’s a genetic component ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I agree that some of the VGA art looks better, but here's the curse of the higher definition: if you look at the crypt scene, the VGA flavor has more detail, but now the crypt walls look as if made of modern concrete and the stalactites look as if made out of clay. This is not an issue with the EGA version because these details are left to the viewers imagination and it will tend to superimpose the details exactly according to the viewers expectations. In the VGA version, there is nothing left to the imagination, the brain is just confronted with the fact that the crypt walls are made in the style of brutalist architecture from poured concrete. This does not mesh at all with the setting of an ancient tomb! At least my subconscious has strong views on how ancient tombs are supposed to be :)

There's a similar issue with the first scene inside the nazi fort, where the wall in the EGA version is made of rough hewn rocks and whether you imagine them to be slimy, moldy, smooth or rough is entirely up to you. There are only the broad strokes to guide your subconscious. The VGA version presents a done deal of what looks like modern masonry. Again it's jarring - we are supposed to be looking at the ancient foundations of the fort.

In other cases, the artists did a better job with VGA so it's either OK or in rare cases better than the EGA version. Perhaps it also comes down to how vivid one's imagination is. Someone who has no preconceptions about the scenery or does not have a particularly strong visual imagination will just see a bunch of rough lines in the EGA flavor, and they won't mind the somewhat off putting lighting or details in the VGA screens - they'll just assume that's how it's supposed to be.
They've been scrounging for a long time now, but have had little to show for it. Years ago I'd arbitrage between a handful of exchanges, keeping fiat only on those where I'd have a chance of legal recourse - and the bitcoin only showed up just in time to execute the order. So over the years a bunch of those exchanges have gotten popped by hackers, which means those transaction histories got sold on the carding forums. Interestingly enough, the only impact that had on me was a few Wall Street outfits reaching out to buy large blocks off-exchange. How'd they get my number, ya think?
Exactly that. We destroy our tourist destinations, beaches, food sources, areas where to live, landscapes for desktop backgrounds, the air and the water. Lost in useless economic abstractions.
I think FTL travel can't be useful unless FTL communication exists first. Otherwise you're just spending a lot of resources to seed competing civilizations.
To put it more concretely, how many people have you been able to promote into a role like yours where they are defining the architecture, in the last 5 years?
Interestingly it seems to mainly affect women. In Germany in over 90% of cases the blood clots occurred in Women.
> I didn't know what an ingress controller was

I've seen this comment a lot when discussion introductions to Kubernetes, and it is probably one of the biggest "first step" problems I see, and a perfectly legitimate complaint. If there was one thing that Kubernetes could address to help "onboarding", it might be thing.

Kubernetes is essentially a collection of controllers, that each control a different aspect of the system. These are all "internal", and you don't need to know/understand them in order to stand up Kubernetes in the happy-path. If you're using a managed solution, these are all managed by your provider anyways.

The ingress controllers are the exception. It brings the concept of "controller" out of the "Kubernetes administration" space, and into the "Kubernetes user" space. It opens up a whole can of worms around "What exactly is a controller?" that you shouldn't have to understand in order to get started using Kubernetes.
I spend $6/mo on my singlehnode kubernetes vps and I'd say my ops burden is about zero. it takes about 20 minutes to set up k3s and boom, it's running. since all my projects & manifests are in git, it takes another 40 minutes tops to reapply them on a fresh node, & I don't feel particularly worried about maintaining this one.

fear is the mind killer.
In one of his descriptions of the publishing world, Charlie Stross described publishing as "supply chain management". And after three successful but stressful Kickstarters for my comics[1], that really rings true.

If you have the option to get your work published through an Actual Publisher, I strongly recommend doing so. You will make less money but you will also spend a lot less time dealing with wrangling the money, printing, shipping, distribution, and maybe even promotion if you're lucky enough for the publisher to decide to put some actual energy into that for you. Building a distribution network that gets stuff into bookstores all over is a lengthy process that will consume a lot of your time, and doing it right really requires having a lot more product flowing through that network than you will ever be able to generate yourself.

If you have someone in your DIY circles who has made the choice to take on the handling of some part of this network as a part of their DIY career, I strongly recommend paying them to handle this part of things if you can afford it.

So what? Find out which contraindications there are and then no longer use it for people that are suspectible to those problems.

Vaccinating with AZ is much more useful than it is dangerous. By several orders of magnitude.
> Now you're changing the argument to if Bitcoin can be used for "a stable store of value" and if it's a "large useful network".

The point of Bitcoin is to serve those purposes. My critique is that it cannot because it is based mostly on ephemeralities.

> The housing market in 2008 is hardly relevant to Bitcoin,

The housing market collapsed because of government inaction, not action. People valued CDOs as AAA rated when the actual underlying reality was worthless. Eventually reality caught up with us.

> That Bitcoin set that as a goal, and still is achieving it after many years of attempts of being taken down

This is agreed, incredibly technically successful. I do not agree that violating democratic rules is always a good thing, but I do see it as a good thing for countries that come under the gun of US imperialism such as Iran or Venezuela. However, in general, I am not a fan as the people that will use it the most are likely to be large corporate actors to escape any kind of accountability.

Censorship resistance is the only thing I can see in Bitcoin that is not ephemera.
This is obvious if you have a dog, but cool to see it studied.

My dog is a velcro dog, he follows me everywhere. If I change direction he will too. If I start to run he will too. One amusing thing on our walks is he will walk confidently, determinedly in one direction, as if he is rushing to a destination. Then if I change direction, he immediately does too, as if forgetting about his original destination in the first place. Anthropomorphizing a bit I know.

This article suggests all dogs are like this, mine just might do it to a stronger degree.
Actually in their example, no data is processed.

The query compiled to a loop over natural numbers that was optimized by the compiler:

uint64_t x = 0;
for (uint64_t i = 0; i < 1000000000000; ++i)
x += i;

print x;

This loop is completely eliminated by compiler optimizations.

But it does not make much sense to run these queries in SQL :)

Yeah I think the term "Reddit investors" is fine - along the lines of "main-street investors" or "wall-street investors".

I think it probably is more ambiguous to people on this board than the general population since people here are particularly VC-minded.

I don't see the relevance. Criminals aren't cave bats - they're not going to reconsider an act because there's a street light. They'll just move on to another opportunity or do it anyway.

I echo globular-toast's complaints because I have a bright LED street lamp right outside my window which prevents me from sleeping unless I close my curtains, meaning I can't wake up to natural light in the morning.

Street lighting is excessive and unnecessary and unless there's a study that says otherwise, I doubt it has any impact on crime.
As someone with a toe in the deep learning research space, were you to look at commonly used ML code, then you'd find software engineering problems that are far bigger than just pickling. I think it underscores the distinction between computer science and software engineering; that is, the theoreticians of the former and those who actually deploy them in the latter.

Researchers, especially sleep-deprived grad students, have borderline unreadable code for papers since they don't care about deployment. I'd imagine the enterprise engineers who create development pipelines, however, take such risks into consideration.

Are you sure about this one?
If drivers were the only ones impacted, I’d agree. For example professional race car drivers have all consented to the risks, so what they do on the race track is up to them. But when cars are used for general transportation there are all kinds of negative externalities that people can’t opt out of.
Is there any reason to think different lighting would have prevented Sarah Everard's murder?
Good point, hormonal birth control is very popular here in Germany
Author here, this was a fun project with some interesting results. The AI model is trained on 40 years of scraped historical data and it has some pretty interesting takes.
This is not necessarily the case, and based on excess mortality data if the number is off it is most likely under reported (look at the senior home reporting in NY state and the reluctance of certain states, like Flordia, to openly share this data).

In the case of the motorcycle accident: the man was in a crash and hospitalized for over a week where he died of COVID related respiratory failure. While he would not have been in the hospital had it not been for the accident, had it not been for COVID he very well may have survived his time there.

Regarding the Flu, it is way down this year precisely because of the measures that have been taken for COVID. It is less transmissible than COVID, so it stands to reason that it would die out during a time when most people are taking precautions to prevent the spread of a more transmissible virus.

Anecdotal, but, Authy has been very buggy for me lately. Locking up (100% CPU) on my computer and sync across devices sometimes not working.

No specific reason to assume Obsidian is better, but, its annoying enough that it turned Authy from something that seamlessly "just works" into something which I feel like i'm fighting with.
This is like bringing an actual gun to a water pistol fight. Way overkill and the type of thing only engineers care about
Maybe this is the wrong definition but I read “true hologram” to mean a 3D image made of light, this looks more like one of those images that used to be on the cover of Guinness World Records.
For speed's sake could a hover or tap bring out the hex code? I understand that was not the function of your site. It would be cool to just be able to quickly see/use the hex if one is searching for color combos.
I think it doesn't really matter what the name is as long as it's a common word that's easy to memorize. Trunk, master, main, default, current, etc. are all the same to me. But "main" saves me two characters in my shell prompt so it's marginally better IMO. The entire thing is mostly just a bikeshed.

It's not that simple. You can be an apparently healthy individual with some undiagnosed condition that makes you prone to clots.

Unfortunately someone is going to wrap up super-resolution for critical tasks and sell it likely causing many people harm or at least inconvenience. I have already tried to talk some companies out of using it for police/surveillance type work. People who do not understand the technology are determined to use it and someone is going to.
Even if using this, remember to get a bitwarden license. It’s $10 for a whole year and keeps their dev afloat.
That’s mostly because the UCI has very strict rules about bicycle design. They banned recumbent bikes very early in the history of the sport; more recently they banned Graeme Obree’s “superman” position and other changes to the geometry of a normal upright.

That's absolutely horrifying and funny at the same time.
For anyone interested in 'real' super resolution, we use these techniques to overcome the diffraction limit in microscopy (my field is neuroscience):

- stochastic optical reconstruction (PALM/STORM)

- structured illumination microscopy (SIM)

I see it as a "faster" altrrnative to the kanban widget in Notion, clearly not a replacement. I use Notion to collect bookmarks, quotes, code, media, every bit of information I need for a project and despite its relative slowness and the lack of offline mode is serving me well.
The artwork doesn't remotely strike me as the kind of thing one would typically see on Facebook. More 4chan, Tumblr, etc.
What I find interesting about that is that after seeing the face in the super-resolution image you can kinda see it in the original
I guess in my mind, the point of the adoption is that the "adopter" has a point of personal connection with the funding they are providing, and they can hang a picture on the wall to remind themselves why they are supporting this cause.

Given that almost none of these "adopters" will ever see the gorilla in question in real life, it seems unreasonably jealous to insist that this organization should forgo funding so that they and they alone can have a financial relationship with this particular gorilla.
Another thing worth calling out, there's nothing wrong with over-engineering solutions in pursuit of knowledge.

Especially when it's just a personal project.
In most cases, they already serve the entire content to the browser and just put a paywall overlay on top. It’s usually trivial to remove the overlay in a desktop browser by inspecting the source. You may also need to enable scrolling with css if it was disabled.
Several European countries are already finding that millions of people are refusing the AZ vaccine due to unfounded and disproven aspersions made against it by political leaders in Europe. So either way vaccine deployment gets hurt. If you suspend usage vaccinations get delayed and people wonder if there are real problems, otherwise why is it's use being suspended? If you push ahead people complain concerns aren't being taken seriously. It's lose/lose all round.

Meanwhile Britain has got on with the job and vaccinated 25 million people (including me on Monday, with AZ), and avoided the fresh waves of infections crippling Europe and flooding their hospitals at the moment.
Interesting. What do you think about Seagate's claim that dual actuator decreases their costs because it takes less time to test the drive? Is that the real reason for dual actuator?

That's because they live comfortably. Unexpected famine and drought would motivate migration.
> you should think of it as getting a flu but ten times worse that also gives you a permanent heart condition

Perhaps we should think of it as getting SARS-Cov-2 and as much as 1/3 of people don't even know they're infected.

Unhealthy people are often really hit hard, the most vulnerable have a substantial risk of death.

But an overwhelming number of healthy people are fine, and given the prolonged disruption of normal life, those people suffer vast consequences from interventions that outweigh catching the virus.

Children especially are being sacrificed for the elderly and chronically ill.

I still don’t understand what you mean, please correct me where I’m wrong.

Branch prediction is a CPU level thing, and mis-predictions has a cost. You can do things like partitioning data beforehand so that a given if condition will take the same branch each time in the partition, but I don’t see how does it apply to templates at all.

You can’t avoid branches that depend on runtime infos, and those branches that depend on compile time known infos can be elided either automatically by the compiler if it can prove it is constant for example, or by things like constexpr, templates as you say. But it’s nothing too fancy, the dumb C-preprocessor macro can do similar things.

JIT-compiled languages can sometimes elide branches based on runtime data, so there is that.
not just the light temperature (2700K would be better), but the idea that a street light must be a bulb boxes in the design. led lights can be made in any sort of configuration, since it's an amalgamation of bunch of small point sources, not just one big point source.

it would be neat to have light strips alongside the sidewalk and the road, as well as above. that way, the light can be lower intensity in aggregate while still providing the necessary illumination (via surrounding light vs. flooding) to make out details. our eyes are highly adaptive, and we don't need a lot of light, but rather, light from many angles.

also, the safety argument is often overstated in relation to the intensity of light. you only need a little light to reduce crime and accidents to its threshold. more isn't better in this regard.
SATA3 is 6Gbps at 8/10b encoding: or 600MBps.

SAS is 12Gbps or 1200MBps (I don't know if it uses 8/10b encoding, but I'll assume that for simplicity)

------------

Hard Drives are no where close to breaking the SATA3 barrier, let alone the enterprise SAS 12Gbit barrier.

Yes, but there in nevertheless a stereotypical "Islington Set".

Basically they think that deflationary assets irreparably cripple the debt market, and therefore the government bonds market, and therefore wars will be harder to fund and less arbitrary.

There is some accuracy to that. Would raise the stakes and the resources involved in funding a war. The last 70-80 years of US hegemony have been based off of the market tolerance for US debt and slowly being paid their money back, in US dollartoken. And before then, US hegemony was not a thing.

So there is nothing to say that the market won't find a way to have fractional speculation on bitcoin/crypto asset backed securities, and there is nothing to say that a governing body won't find a way to sustain itself and gain compliance with its peers through it. But there is also not a history of US hegemony supporting it either. Not a panacea because the world was much more of a tinderbox before US debt based hegemony.
