Your comment is a Straw Man. My intention was not to summarize the case. Changing the Founders intended meaning of the 2nd to include self-defense was really outrageously skew to the case itself, and entirely unnecessary and irrelevant to the case and the 2nd. It is brazenly false NRA propaganda from the early 20th Century come to fruition and provably not the Founders' intention. The case is incidental, because its effect on the 2nd that is relevant --because the subject was the "difficulty" in changing the US Constitution: it does not take 2/3rds majority of both houses of Congress and a majority of the States legislatures. All it takes is a senile gunnutter on the bench to go beyond the mandate of the highest court and the judicial branch of government: Judges do not legislate. Yet Scalia did, and that part of the decision came out of left field (the idiom would have worked better if it was right field, but that isn't the idiom). The 2nd had a purpose, the purpose was militias, whom the Founders were devoted to, to make a standing army unnecessary, to prevent the consolidation of executive power. But now as an individual right to be armed for the purposes of self-defense it leaves the nation with less and no protection against tyranny. But at least pride has been elevated from an indulgence to a virtue. The last proper exercise of the 2nd will be the Black Panthers at the Alameda County courthouse. That was how the Founders intended the 2nd to work, not as a way to say "don't touch my stuff," not as a source of paranoid mass-delusion.

I'm just saying investing in your house does make your house value increase, not that it's financially interesting. And in an ideal situation, I would anyway never sell this "house I love".

The point i'm trying to make is : if you put your extra money on your house, it's never going to be a total loss and if you do it well it can increase your happiness by a lot. It's a personal thing but I think that feeling well at home (not only materially, but that's another point) is the foundation of stable happiness.

Isn’t this just an argument for nihilism? Over a long time anything is possible, but that’s not an excuse to ignore the data that we have right here and now. Never mind that there will never be a point where there isn’t a “long period of time” in front of us, which becomes a convenient excuse for permanent inaction.

Also, anything being possible is not the same as anything being probable. The vaccine might make me grow a third arm too, after all anything is possible in the long run, but you would laugh if I said that I wasn’t getting a vaccine for the fear of my tailoring bill.
This back and forth is so ... weird. You are trying to somehow use one metric of population and migrations to measure what I have to think is quality of life. Why not then just use studies that tried to measure this? Do you reject them because all Scandinavian countries score higher than the US?
They might be thinking as follows: a human can self-drive a car. If we give the car enough sensors to get all the sensory data that a human driver gets, then implementing self-driving is just a matter of software.

It's not clear from the article, but I think what they are doing is delaying part of the frequency range of a signal. All this talk of negative delays is really confusing, it's just that they are delaying frequencies outside the range they are considering by a larger amount than within their range of interest. The overall effect is the same, there is going to have to be latency through the system.

So, I presume, their listeners are hearing a timbral shift caused by the harmonics being advanced/retarded. This is not the same effect as feeding a delayed signal into one ear and a non-delayed into the other (the relative phase being used for locating a sound).

They are I guess exploring how accurately they need to reproduce an impulse response to make an accurate transducer, and from the article, I believe they have concluded that they need to be more accurate than they previously thought. Given Genelec make a range of speakers with DSP for this sort of thing, it's I guess partly a marketing campaign to convince people that there is some benefit from their DSP corrected monitors.

Of course, for a producer to have an accurate monitor is useful, but if the listening public have non-aligned drivers, the sonic benefits from worrying about this stuff are of somewhat limited value.
M1 is nearly a year old now, and the replacement (M1X, M2?) is rumored to be released in a couple of months. So far no other SoC has been able to come close to even the current-gen M1 in terms of performance + efficiency, with a remarkable x86 emulation on top.

On the software side, Apple has the unique position to force every developer who cares about their user base to rebuild their stuff for a completely different CPU architecture.

M1-based products are anything but overpriced. The Air’s price is comparable to modern flagship smartphones.

I initially thought about synchronisation with video too (aka lip sync). However, I don't think they are talking about video but merely whether a difference is detectable (rather than acceptable). I suspect the threshold for lip sync acceptability is a lot higher than what they measured here. I would have thought the threshold was higher than 5ms, but I haven't done any rigorous testing.
Some of the comments in here about the vaccine and the pandemic are shocking to me. I guess I was wrong, we have become a society of selfish and narcissistic people.

My comment was for laptops primarily. On the desktop side, I'd not buy an Apple branded system unless I need macOS specifically, but on the portable space, their systems are superior to most of the offerings.

They're not EliteBook/Thinkpad tough, but they're more than enough unless you're going to handle it rough.

I can calibrate a screen regardless of the OS I use with the help of a good calibration device, and having a good panel is a good start for that. On desktop, there are possibly better panels for pure color accuracy, I won't argue that.

OTOH, on the portable space, their hardware formula is pretty robust.
Posting Too Fast?
I have been posting here for some time now. I post in earnest and follow post and comment guidelines.

I have been trying to post a singular comment replying to a comment and this is the first time that I am engaging with this comment. I’ve posted 2 other comments on this thread. Despite waiting 3 hours I’m still getting this “slow down, you are posting too fast “ message.

It feels like a thumb on the conversation, like a bully taunting you by holding their longer armed hand on the helpless smaller persons forehead, others are free to post and downvote, but I get to wait out an arbitrary opaque amount of time before I am a full human here.

Considering that the thread in question is about Facebook allowing fossil fuel industry misinformation on the climate crisis to go unchallenged despite their alleged commitment to doing something about climate change, and considering the viewpoint I advocate for, I’m not surprised that oil industry shills here downvote me. That this should handicap my voice here is a testament to the HN system. I cannot post a considered comment after 3 hours and that’s your private right as a privately owned forum, but it should be brought to your attention before I disengage with your community. It’s only the fate of humanity being decided here, no big deal.

I'm pretty sure this generation of Dalai Lama didn't kill anyone, he never had that kind of power, but it should be noted his previous generations have, and consistently did. It should be noted that DL was not just a religious leader, but also had the status of a king, with more power than your typical medieval dictator, who just treat people like trash, and kill, and torture, and rape whoever they want, which really shouldn't be surprising to anyone.

Although, the Catholic Church have also killed gigantic amount of people anyway, modern day priests seems to continue the habit of raping little boys regardless. Those organizations still exist, and will keep existing, so whatever, that's just this world. I'm forever a non-believer for instituionalized religion for those reasons alone.

(Also note DL never did reform Tibet to democratic society on his own, so regardless, I don't think he should be the symbol of Tibet, or as a leader. Afterall, the theme for these last centuries was that ALL despots must be abolished unless they made democratic reforms.)

I'm reading Wilding by Isabella Tree that contests this view of the past flora in the British Isles. The impact of megafauna on the development of woodland is seemingly not accounted for in the accepted view of the historic landscape.

While it's true that if you leave a patch of land to its own devices currently, it gradually becomes scrub, then dense woodland, it turns out if there are deer and other large herbivores about they do quite a good job at reducing tree cover and turning the landscape into a variety of other ecosystems.
It is certainly a mix. Eg one of the demographic groups least likely to be vaccinated are blacks, who obviously lean democrat.

That’s been my experience too. I asked one holdout I know, and she said she was waiting to see what effect the vaccine had on us, even though many of us have been vaxxed for six months or more. She’s so afraid of the vaccine that she gave up income due to loss of employment.

That is always going to be a compromise between the chance of a buffer underrun and annoying latency. Compared to analog digital audio solves some problems but introduces a whole raft of new ones.

The context of the thread is the idea of "avoiding Apple ecosystem while still buying M1" (See paulcarroty's post and my reply). If you install Linux, you don't get their Rosetta x86 emulation or any advantage from 'forcing developers', etc. etc.
Not true. Windows 11 can run "snappy" on even 10 year old hardware (with a SSD of course).

Just to be clear, I'm gonna call you out now because you falsely accuse me of being a fascist sympathiser: russdpale is so uncertain in his beliefs that he cannot allow himself to even look at an 11 minute historical analysis of the proud boys by a California liberal turned conservative.

It's your loss, he's a gentle spirit and a clear thinker.

All your huffing and puffing, denouncing people who you do not know the slightest bit about with hollow words like "fascist" that get flung around carelessly without regard for the actual definition of the word or for consistency of application, is nothing but a smokescreen to hide the intellectual insecurity that is the result of being trapped in a 'liberal' group think bubble.

You know who else denounced their fellow citizens as evil and wouldn't allow anyone to challenge their beliefs? That's right: Fascists. Now, I'm not saying you are a fascist. I'm merely saying that you exhibit the same kind of bad behaviour that makes actual fascists bad.

I think GP made a good argument, if you state it in somewhat more friendly words.

The world is different now from 2019; history has forced on us the unfortunate choice between the vaccine and the novel Coronavirus. The idea that the vaccine might have unknown, rare, long-term side-effects isn't nonsensical per se; but you have to weigh the probability of that against the certainty of you and / or your loved ones getting the virus if you're not vaccinated.

What we definitely know so far is that such weird "dark horse" side-effects that only appear long after the actual studies are a very rare phenomenon for vaccines in general, there is no biological reason for why they should appear in this case, and none have been observed so far, even though the first people got these vaccines a year or so ago.

Probably the underlying problem is a general fear of vaccines or pharmaceuticals in general. Side-effects in general occupy a way too large space in people's imagination. It might help to consider the dangers inherent to common everyday activities to keep things in perspective.
Which is why the US has been trying to discourage the use of the dollar as a reserve currency for well over a decade now. There are no real upsides to being a reserve currency (i.e. the strength of the dollar is because of the size and strength of the US economy, not because it is a reserve currency), and a big downside: financial problems around the world lead to the buying of dollars, causing the price to go up which makes imports more expensive and costs for American businesses and consumers to go up.

First rule of law is anyone can sue anyone for anything, but that doesn’t mean they will prevail. All this talk of which group has a legal claim against Facebook isn’t really relevant. Plenty of users have sued Facebook even though the don’t pay for it, and we can’t know what kind of indemnification clauses Facebook has with political or other advertisers etc.

Plus all those legal contracts are usually littered with words like “reasonable” which is a great term for lawyers billable hours.
> Can someone explain to me why the vaccine is safe even though it’s “experimental”.

The COVID vaccines are a trade-off... possible but unlikely long-term consequences vs. definitive and massive long-term side effects of catching COVID.

Australia and New Zealand aside, if you are not vaccinated you will get COVID eventually.
I suspect the argument about long term effects is intentionally misleading. It will be impossible to convince most of those people about long term effects until the long term has come to pass. The chart in the article even alludes to that, with < 15% saying they'd get vaccinated if there was full FDA approval. That is likely as close as we'll get to a statement of there being no long term effects in the near future.

As for "shortcuts" being taken in the approval process, the normal process is intended for situations where there is less urgency. The combination of a high infection rate and relatively high mortality rate has a large social impact and it has a large economic impact, regardless of whether anything is done to mitigate spread. The provisional approval is necessary, it still reflects high standards for safety, and it does not imply a lack of safety.

Edit: for clarity.

If we are talking about phone numbers for humans - maybe true. Phone network routing numbers can and do contain A-E.
The chip that would read RAM and generate a video signal was called a CRTC or RAMDAC back in the day - though RAMDAC, standing for RAM Digital to Analog Converter, only really applies to VGA which is analog. Some game consoles had an equivalent chip (Brooktree/Conexant) that was called an encoder.

This is separate from anything that blits textures, rasterizes triangles to video RAM, performs parallelized math operations on big vector lists, runs shader code, or does MPEG/etc. decoding. All of that stuff is what constitutes a GPU.

I'm not sure what the modern term for DAC is given everything is all digital.
