The comment of laurent92 doesn't read as if he needs acknowledgement.

It reads like he thinks he's done enough "good" or has enough "accomplishments" in his head that he is definitely owed affection from women now, because clearly he's good enough as he is now. While also "refusing to budge" on the amount of what he's owed.

And I also read an anger at the inability to receive what he's owed, and some violence angle on top of that.

(Sorry, at this point this turned into a reply to Laurent92 themselves.)

That's not how it works, however, - you don't take what you're owed in a personal relationship (if you want it to be good and long lasting, anyway), and you don't treat the other person like they have to give you what you're owed. You're not against your partner.

However bad you think men have it today, women have it worse, and had for a long time. It's really only fair for the pendulum to swing another direction till everything settles in a good fair balance.

And that balance will look like people from different social groups working together, understanding each other, instead of taking what they're owed from each other.

What you need to do is look at your partner as you look at yourself because they are a person, too, not a device that gives you your reward.
Are there major differences in battery life?
The change here, from what I can tell, is that you could have consumers directly dealing with the central bank, holding accounts directly with it, cutting out the traditional retail banks.

I'm not sure one way or another if that's a good idea, and I guess they aren't either, hence the forming a committee to investigate.
Anyone else here old enough to remember the Mac Portable? It had a monochrome reflective (no backlight) display fast enough to display video (a rarity at the time) and worked great in sunlight. Apparently it wasn't so great in low light. There was a backlit version sometime later, per wikipedia.

That's my take as well, and I think that's already known by most users. So nothing new for Signal users.

For WhatsApp it would be nice to change the defaults so that no information (other than the fact that the number is registered) is shared with no interaction.
I agree with the decision against freeloaders.

Too many people expect to be paid for their work, while not giving anything to upstream only entitlement of what should be provided as free beer.

For those there is GPL license for Qt.
OpenGL has a model of the hardware pipeline that is quite old. A lot of things that are expressed as OpenGL state are now actually implemented in software as part of the final compiled shader on the GPU. For example, GLSL code does not define the data format in which vertex attributes are stored in their buffers. This is set when providing the attribute pointers. The driver then has to put an appropriate decoding sequence for the buffer into the shader machine code. Similar things happen for fragment shader outputs and blending these days. This can lead to situations where you're in the middle of a frame and perform a state change that pulls a rug from under the shader instances that that driver created for you so far. So the driver has to go off and rewrite and reupload shader code for you before the actually requested command can be run.

More modern interfaces now force you to clump a lot of state together into pretty big immutable state objects (e.g. pipeline objects) so that the driver has to deal with fewer surprises at inopportune times.
Yes that's probably a good analogy. I think the problem is the current systems require being able to take over the controls immediately. If this is required more than an insignificant number of occasions, with potentially fatal outomes, it may be an unreasonable thing to ask of a human who hasn't been driving recently, is not engaged with the road situation, and is likely to be distracted / not concentrating / getting sleepy.

Mary Lou Jepsen (who created the One Laptop Per Child laptop also developed transflective displays for the laptop, which could switch between backlit color mode and sunlight-readable monochrome mode.

Later her company Pixel Qi even developed a screen with solar panels inside it, to charge the device while it is used outside. Pixel Qi is now defunct.

Today Jepsen is working on Clearwater, a non invasive brain imaging technology (an infrared headband which reconstructs a 3D image from scattered photons), which can be used for brain computer interfaces.

Alan Kay is opposed to the "principle of least power" and instead believes the web should consist of turing-complete "objects" which manage their own rendering.

Basically he wants a web consisting purely of "black box" Java Applets rather than of web pages. I think this vision have failed multiple times for obvious reasons.
Nope. Those are local problems, like when your road doesn't have power, but the next road does. Load shedding is announced days in advance and publicized in newspapers.
> A cryogenic cooling system usually just vents the gas into the room, it may just be a little well around the part which gets filled with ln2 from a dewar.

It depends on the scale, and whether the cooling is only required for a short while.

Large scale cryogenics (such as at CERN, an LNG tanker etc) will recompress the vapor as it forms.

If so, the loop basically IS as refrigerator, just a much bigger, higher performing unit.

For an extreme example, see:

In a previous comment[1] I mentioned finding a paper that made a neural net cache predictor with seemingly great success.

A key thing however was that their actual predictor was a simpler model, SVM, designed using insight discovered from the behavior of the neural network one. In particular the source address was a strong indicator for the model.

If you take this CPU with its 280W TDP and scale it down to 18W like an Apple M1, you get a score of ~7200 while the Apple M1 gets 7700. Actually pretty amazing how close the performance per watt is to be honest; totally different form factors, different CPU architecture, different R&D (both having spent billions of dollars), different fabs, but still within 10% performance/watt. Makes you wonder how close we are to the physical limits.
You could use suction or flow of air to overcome this. Or perhaps even a spring.

I don't need a screenshot, I have it running here. By default GNOME does not display all running applications on the desktop, you always have to do an extra step (mouse click, hot corner, key press, swipe) and activate the Activities screen, which is not necessary on basically any other desktop system, and that is precisely what the author complained about.
I would also appreciate any advice you could provide to find such a person.
This is... way cheaper than I thought it would be at $250(pre-order price?).

But I don't understand how it works. Seems like... head/hand tracking? But then why the weird-looking screen?

A bit disappointed, at first I thought it was something similar to those cards we had when we were kids, that change image depending on which angle you look at them (forgot the name).

Edit: seems like it's a bit of both: https://docs.lookingglassfactory.com/KeyConcepts/how-it-work...

Edit2: Okay so it does work like the cards we had when we were kids. The screen shows 45 different views of the scene at once. I'm back at being non-disappointed.

Of course there are, e.g. the ones who wrote the Baidu Baike article on "yellow people": https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E9%BB%84%E8%89%B2%E4%BA%BA%E7%... But a term that groups them with Japanese, Mongolians and Indonesians doesn't have much relevance for most Chinese people anyway.

How do you know nobody uses them? I'd be willing to bet that there are many older in-house scripts puttering away in some dark, webbed corners of internal networks, which rely on this functionality, e.g. because they are getting their input from some obscure network appliances which print IP addresses like that.

I would fully expect support for these "weird" formats to be a (enabled by default) build-time option, but it's a good thing that curl maintainer is not just cutting it off right away.
The same report still says that the US and UK are the most attractive destinations.

This is some of the worst development advice I've ever received. Ten years ago, I was most comfortable with Flash, C and Objective C.

Wow am I glad I learned JavaScript in 2012/2013.

A few years later, I was most comfortable building web servers with Node/Express.

Once again, wow am I glad I learned RoR and then Elixir/Phoenix instead of halting my education and sticking with what I was most comfortable with back then.

It's been a huge productivity boost in multiple domains.
Happy Humio user here. Love the product.

I think there were some recent changes to the front-end too that makes it feel snappier than before. Great job on that too.

However, at the risk of sounding like insensitive clod who makes critical comments on a post talking about its front-end, if I can offer one criticism of the web interface it's that it doesn't responsively adapt to mobile resolutions nicely. I get that the primary use of a tool like Humio will indeed be from desktop browser (which it works well on) but it would be nice to do some quick error checking on the go using my mobile.
Thanks for the feedback.

If a business wants to hold cash outside of a bank, it has to use bank notes. This would give them the option of holding digital currency directly.

>But odds are you won't make all that much. You might write far better than JK Rowling and still not sell very much because you write something that just doesn't catch the imagination of book buyers.

Really like that sentence. Very true.

>One of the things a publisher gives you, that many who choose to self-publish don't want, though, is an objective third party assessing if you've written something that they think is likely to sell. Of course they can be wrong, and frequently are. But they're investors, effectively, considering whether it would responsible for them to put their resources and time at risk to back a book or an author. They're selective because frankly most authors are not very good, and many one the ones that are good or even amazing are unlikely to sell or unlikely to sell to their audience.

I slightly disagree here. I don't know if this is true for fiction, but I don't think it's true for non-fiction.

Publishers can only asymmetrically help. They're able to somewhat accurately spot which books might work, but they can't do the inverse (spot which books won't).
Clickbait title. The original even includes “here’s when it's coming”, yet they are guessing based on previous reports and admit they don’t know:

There’s no leaked Macbook Pro. What they do have is more information on who will manufacture the new chips and assumptions on what that means:

> A new report from DigiTimes suggests that Apple has now booked the production for new in-house design chips that will very likely power the next generation of Macs.

> (…)

> Being manufactured by Taiwanese firm TSMC, these new M2 chips will be based on a 4-nanometer fabrication process node, which in layman's terms means more transistors packed onto a slice of silicon and thus more power.

There's kind of two sides to your question: the reading experience and the writing experience.

The reading experience is obviously important if you're blogging for your content to get shared or at least be accessible to people. Personally, I prefer any platform that outputs static HTML because it's fast and highly customizable. Jekyll, Gatsby, Hugo, and other static site generators are good for this.

On the writing side, you want to remove friction. The more mental effort required to get started writing, the less likely you'll stick with it. So, CMSes are nice for this. I have used Netlify CMS, Strapi, and plain markdown files in git for this in the past. If the blog doesn't have guest writers, I prefer the simplest path (writing markdown in git), but if you're opening up to guest posts in the future, you might want to give people a user friendly CMS.
Minecraft is also a prime example for why Java is bad for game development.

The GC is constantly overworked because Java has to allocate immutable vector and matrix classes on the heap.

It doesn't work this way from a macroeconomic perspective.

If a foreign nation runs a trade surplus and the US runs a trade deficit as a result, that means that spending by foreigners is smaller than their income, in other words, foreigners are saving money which they can invest in the USA. If they invest then the money flowing outside the US will also flow back to the US.

The Chinese buy US treasury bonds, that is where most of the USD China receives eventually end up. The government can issue debt to tap into the savings and invest them on behalf of the people buying treasury bonds. The investment will create new jobs and hopefully a return over the long term that beats inflation.

Of course the assumption was that the money is being invested. From what I have seen Donald Trump merely used the low yields on the treasury bonds to cut taxes for the rich. This will increase the corporate savings rate at the expense of the household savings rate. It's entirely possible that the additional savings end up in treasury bonds again and we are stuck in a loop.
