Parent knows this, but maybe other readers might not: Gacha is the Japanese name for those machines on the street where you put in a coin and a plastic sphere with a random toy comes out.

Collecting a set of toys can get obsessive for some, in the same way collecting whatever in micro transaction games.

I also have a question: other than the graphic styles isn’t genshin impact closer to the online final fantasy games or even modern jrpg such as xenoblade?

I’ve never played genshin, but from the little I’ve seen it just seems it’s only the graphic style that matches BoTW
apparently android doesnt allow that on wifi so out of luck.
Exactly. The police don't choose to pursue it. If they just made an example out of one or two of the scammers, sending them to prison, that would go a long way.
I don't have a Nintendo and will never buy one, but I do have a phone.

And yeah, the first time I played Genshin I was amazed at the quality for a mobile game. It quickly ran out of content so now it just sits there, quick fun for half an hour.

imo Dragon Raja was better (amazing pvp, damn addictive) but was absolutely ruined by the microtransactions and small servers aspects.
It's going the other way that's the problem. I understand .net nullable, including some of the weird edge cases and trivia. None of that seems to provide any illumination into the working of more general monads.

A reminder about Xapian which the author did not include (it is only a library)

https://xapian.org/
I really like thought exercises like this, but find it troublesome when authors (like this one) do not offer alternatives that address the weakness of the common approach, they just just point the weaknesses out and metaphorically “shrug”.

Left with this, people will still revert to the status quo because they’ve been offered no true alternative that provides more value.
...why are you playing this game when your comment seems to boil down to "I don't like it"?
The appearance of a trend does not guarantee the continuation of that trend to its logical extreme.

I'd argue that they're just doing the obvious: refining and maturing iPadOS, and unifying the vibe of all their products. This makes sense. Just as one band influencing another doesn't mean that the two bands will eventually converge into an amorphous blob, two products by the same company influencing one another doesn't mean that the two will become a single product.

I'd just take Apple's word for it that they've maintained all along: they're letting the device do its thing as best it can. If iOS were swallowing everything, then why did iPadOS split out into its own thing? People don't give enough credence to the fact that these platforms are splitting just as much as they're merging.

Also, even if all devices were going the way of "dumbed-down iOS," someone still needs to develop for it, and you best believe that Apple won't loosen their grip on that segment. Just as Mac Pros are loss leaders just to keep the creative class, macOS devices in general will stick around, hell or high water, just to retain the developer class.

I for one welcome the iPadOS-ification of macOS, the macOS-ification of iPadOS, and so on. They're just allowing the products to slowly evolve and (ideally) be the best version of what their interface dictates, just as they've always done and always said they're doing.
> Lifelong Californian here. We're not victims - that would imply some outside actor. In reality it's almost entirely our fault.

Understandable, hiding behind a left-to-right merge where you have to choose between getting hit by the truck that's tailgating you or speeding for a few seconds is far more important police work.
It's a proxy war like many of the proxy wars happening in these contention points. War is expensive and destructive. Which means you'll have difficulty collecting any revenue and you'll need a constant stream of money to finance your soldiers. Don't be deluded but most of these militia are working for money, not for "god".

In the case of Afghanistan, you got yourself with Iran, Russia, China, Pakistan, and the US (and its allies). Afghanistan is a great place to yield control over the region. So it was a war of attrition. Of course, the biggest losers were the Afghan themselves but they had little say in this conflict.

Now that the US left, there is a tab to pay to the Taliban. That, or they'll look for a new sponsor. Leaving at this point (where Taliban are quite powerful) is not that stupid (might actually be smart). Pakistan and Iran (and maybe China?) have created a monster that is quite hard to control than a traditional army. Now, they are all living near this monster.
The US directly trained the Afghan special forces, who in fairness to them did their job well but were often left with hardly any ammunition or air support. The Afghan government was in charge of funding operations and recruitment of the ANA. You can find countless evidence of how they frequently betrayed their units, fled, sold their equipment or were otherwise immensely incompetent. Added to this, the taliban forces stand between 50-100k troops across the entirety of afghanistan with no air support,tanks, or heavy artillery. Its often simply 100 guys with AK-47s on motorcycles going into a capital and claiming it. You cant solve will to fight as a foreign entity.
VRML anyone?
But it's not a waste for the Taliban though! They now have billions of dollars worth of military equipment kindly provided by the US government!
It's interesting because I just don't see it. The game's monetization is just a new character every month or something like that.

I'm impulsive as hell, but I never had the urge to spend money in Genshin. And I spent almost immediately on Dragon Raja, yeah that game got me good. Fortunately the devs ruined it.
Here again, one of those cases where as a non-native English speaker, despite 12+ years living in English-speaking countries and working for English-speaking companies, I encounter a term for the first time in my 44-years old life: "wet-bulb".

The wet-bulb temperature is defined as the temperature of a parcel of air cooled to saturation (100% relative humidity) by the evaporation of water into it, with the latent heat supplied by the parcel.

A few more notes:

- You'll easily get 30+ hours unique of content with the main story without any need to pay money, which is good value for a free game.

- As with all gacha games, you get a ton of free currency playing through the story naturally; more than enough to get a couple 5* naturally through pity or otherwise.

- As noted, the 4* units aren't bad; in fact some of the higher tier ones are given for free with no strings attached.

- Unlike other gacha, this isn't a difficult game for just playing casually (which is normally a meta-incentive for you to gamble with the gacha) unless you are doing super-endgame things.

- Unlike other gacha, there is no competitive element with a leaderboard/other players (which is normally a meta-incentive for you to gamble with the gacha)

The biggest problem I have with Genshin Impact is Artifact RNG, which is heavily layered with no determinism.
> Be the change you wish to see. If you think Biden was lying here, don't defend him for it.

Me criticizing Biden on an internet forum for offering comforting falsehoods will do nothing. He's responding to a tendency in human nature or perhaps American culture that is far too big to be moved significantly by so small an act, or even thousands or millions of such acts. So I'm happy to continue discussing this in realistic terms rather than idealistic ones.
It's not just about sugar though. Salt can make you hungry, and more likely to eat more than you should.

According to Google, Snickers has 189 mg of salt per 100 grams. Strawberries have 0.

Anecdotally, I have noticed I can basically eat an entire large pizza and still want more. Once we switched to making our own pizza from dough at trader Joe's, I'm stuffed after about 2 slices. I think the difference is that we don't add a ton of salt and cheese like a pizza place does.

Totally agree on the giant circle jerk that is California conservation politics (which IMO are all show and hot air, no realistic action - except when it comes to stopping any sort of actual necessary stewardship work like fuel reduction or development of higher density).

That said, the reason new dams haven’t been built is simple - all the areas worth damming already have been. There are only so many areas with enough dammable area and enough precipitation to make it even a little worthwhile, and those were all obvious by the 40’s and dammed up by the 70’s-80’s at the latest.

It isn’t even about how close something is - hetch-hetchy slaked the thirst of most of the Bay Area, and that is a solid 5+ hr drive away.
I think at most top of line places, internships are viewed as a two way interview. Firms get to see how the intern performs over 8-12 weeks, and the intern gets to see company culture/fit for 8-12 weeks. The work the intern is doing isn't the goal of the internship.
I wonder if the bulk of the The Princess Bride counts as a nested flic, since it's a bedtime story. Or Aladdin (1992), framed as a tale told by a peddler. I was disappointed that the story didn't come back to the peddler at the end, it felt like an unclosed parenthesis.

Sure, it's not moving mitochondrial DNA to Nucleus directly, but the vector allows a specific mitochondrial gene to be expressed inside the nucleus.

I didn't say they do. I said they are useful only because Haskell doesn't allow side-effects. In ML or Lisp you'd just update a local variable instead.
At one point I dug a bit into the python impl of Flatbuffers, and while I forget the exact details, I was struck by how inefficient it looked. Basically every accessor call requires parsing/casting (into python) bytes into objects, without any awareness of whether it had been parsed before.
There are already 1500 reservoirs in California. It's a myth that there are un-impounded streams waiting to be captured. There really are not. Just look at the area around Placerville. There is Sugar Pine, Loon, Big, French Meadows, Ice House, Hell Hole, Stumpy Meadows, Union Valley, Sly Park, and, of course, Folsom Lake. That's all in a diameter of only 30 miles.
You mean without? Well you're wrong. It's not a security concern at all. Allowing anyone from the outside to connect to any port they want is a security concern, simply because there's a lot of insecure software people run that doesn't account for malicious connections. However, allowing a user to intentionally let a piece of software listen for outside connections is in no way insecure.
Here I’m referring specifically, and only, to Afghanistan. Sorry if that wasn’t clear.

If our intentions were ever fully or even mostly pure anywhere else that’s a whole different can of worms.

Yes, and all software had to be rewritten to use UTF-8. If you tried sending UTF-8 bits through an ASCII-only system, you'd display a bunch of garbage and even cause larger issues (as some bit sequences could have been interpreted as control/escape characters).

So, just like expanding address space (IP: 32-bit to 128-bit; ASCII: 8-bit/1-byte to multi-byte), you had to rewrite all the software to handle things.
It was never a thing. NAT isn't security.

The hideous workaround is why it is here. Super interesting to see someone else carve an unintuitive path forward against seemingly unmovable obstacles. Very much a hacker mentality.
The BotW comparisons come because of the world traversal mechanics, mostly. Genshin very-exactly copied the free-climbing + stamina + glider system that's pretty distinctive in BotW.
Dunno if this counts but it’s not unheard of to return nil from init methods in Objective-C.
> No women in arms defending their way of life.

I've long thought that we should have done more to arm the women of Afghanistan. They stand to lose a lot more from the return of the Taliban than the men do. Some of the men might even welcome the Taliban's return.

I doubt 300k women in the ANA would have surrendered to the Taliban so quickly.
Apple is very clear that they don't know anything when photos are uploaded. The system does not even begin to tell them that some may have CSAM until it's had like 30 or so matches. The jump from this type of system (variations are used by everyone else) to some kind of child porn charges is such a reach it's really mind boggling. Especially since the very administrative entities involved are supporting it.

A strong claim (apple committing CSAM felonies) should be supported by reasonably strong support.

Here we have a blog post where they've talked to someone ELSE who (anonymously) has reached some type of legal conclusion. If you follow the QAnon claims in this area (there are lots) they follow a somewhat similar approach - someone heard from someone that something someone did is X crime. It's a weak basis for these legal conclusions.
Totally silly question, but isn't the NAT-upon-NAT(-upon-NAT) a bit of protection in the sense of additional privacy, and hence a good thing? Doesn't this mean the website cannot directly tie back an incognito user back to a specific IP but instead to just a pool?
As climate bands move, which areas become suitable change as well. I don't think it's obvious yet exactly where, if anywhere, makes sense since the place you move it to might be untenable ten years later at this rate.

Of course such moves would heavily entrench large agricultural companies who have the resources to build speculative farms.

I'm personally expecting that farmers will adapt to local conditions and grow crops that use less water and don't mind the heat, or else find a way to reduce water losses from evaporation.

If fruits and vegetables that are no longer tenable to grow in California become more expensive, and they probably will, there will be more incentive to both find a way to grow them more carefully in California as well as more reward to exploring growing them elsewhere.
And how exactly is it "harmful"? Your comparison isn't even right. This is free food that comes without ustensils and without a table. You have to pay for a table and ustensils, but the food is edible without them, and the ingredients and the way they're prepared stand on their own. Especially if you consider that not long ago, this part of the world couldn't prepare such a meal at all, even if they provided all the tables and ustensils in the world.

I've been playing this game for almost a year now and I just don't see the parts where they "harm" you if you don't pay. If you can point out concrete examples of this "rat poop and heavy metals" that you get unless you pay, please do let me know.
For sure. Motivated reasoning is a huge problem around political issues. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motivated_reasoning
Complexity has multiple dimensions and aspects, some of which conflict with one another.

Charles Perrow’s model in his book Normal Accidents is Interactions vs. Coupling, though that seems overly simplistic.

Banning something is different from it not existing.
Afghanistan is never going to have a "stable situation" because it's not a single country with a single national identity. The various ethnicities (and tribal identities) are far more important to the people there [0]. It only has national borders because its neighbors enforce their national borders. Its border with Pakistan is another in a long line of the British Empire's poorly considered border delineations [1].

As for retaking areas, it takes a much larger force to take a defended region than to hold it. The same force holding that area doesn't have the strength or supplies to retake it once it's lost. The only reason the Taliban has moved in so easily is the ANA has folded at every encounter leaving regions effectively undefended once the US pulls troops out.

Hindsight is a great thing but perhaps we're reaching the goal that might have been achievable within a year, namely punish the Taliban for supporting international terrorism and make clear that it won't be tolerated again. Hopefully, if they have a little sense the Talibans understand this this time.
So maybe come back to old BlackBerry with physical QWERTY keyboard?
Of course there was a "winning strategy." China is about to embark on it. There must have been clear signs that the Taliban was capable of doing what they just did. Even if the goal is to exit Afghanistan (which we should have done a long time ago) you still need to build a bridge out and not simply let the cardboard government collapse on itself spontaneously. We should have been making concessions to the Taliban, acknowledging it is a legitimate political force in Afghanistan. At the very least we should have negotiated a permanent military base in Afghanistan while accepting Taliban control of the rest of the nation. We spent too long trying to do too much and ended up getting nothing and looking stupid.
Anger is actually stage 2. Stage 1 is denial.
I believe there should be criticism on the current withdrawal. It is definitely a catastrophe in many ways.

However, I remember the chorus of opposition when the Bush administration decided to send half a million troops to Iraq instead of Afghanistan. Rumsfeld wanted to try invading Afghanistan on the cheap so the US could afford two wars, and because Iraq had a legitimate military and “all the good targets.” They were so delusional they thought both would be over in months. Here we are twenty years later, with the same problems and 10 trillion dollars missing from the treasury. We tortured people and imprisoned them without trial or due process. We debased ourselves on so many levels and we have nothing to show for it.

Dig into the origins of the Taliban, and you’ll find US and Saudi Arabian meddling in the 70s and the 80s exploiting that extremism to counter Russia and communism. Saudi Arabia needed a way to rid themselves of radical theocrats, and the US was looking for soldiers to counter Russian influence. So we helped them fund and train militants by building madrassas in Pakistan and Afghanistan. With haunting irony, Russia was trying to impose similar reforms by invading: gender equality, secularism, and their version of political freedom.

Do you want to know why the second Bush Administration never investigated Saudi Arabia after 9/11? They were all the same people from the first Bush and Reagan administrations, and they knew the paper trail would lead right back to themselves.

Meddling in the affairs of foreign nations always has unintended consequences. Democracy spreads through attraction, not enforcement. I sincerely hope the lesson we learn is not to blame the people who finally accept it, but the people who always think that this time will be different.
The us military is not a get girls to school organization. Try accepting the culture of others without interfering. Give up your global liberalization and homogenization campaign. Worry about your own country and culture.
Winners: China, Pakistan, Russia, Iran, Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.

I don't mean that the game is unwinnable (to the extent that such games are winnable) without spending money. But the core mechanic is swapping between different characters for combos and synergies. You're severely hampered without paying to get other characters and increase your weapons.

I remember getting Hu Tao when she was just released. She was (and I guess still is?) one of the best characters. But I didn't have the roster to really play her to her full potential. So it's back to the loot crates to try and pull other characters that synergize with her and help her reach her potential.
> "5* unit you want after 180 pulls"

A casual search says "The minimum you can spend for a single Wish roll is $2.97" from https://www.gamespot.com/articles/genshin-impact-microtransa... so that's $534.60 to get a single character you want? Even if it were 1/10th that much with the pity system, that's still outrageous since new characters are released frequently.
I think you might be overlooking network effects (pun intended).

Yes, the current incumbents will buy up all the IPv4 addresses they can before trading stops. That will cement them as the permanent winners for IPv4 services.

But with IPv4 addresses no longer tradable, hosting companies and ISPs will have no choice but to adopt IPv6 if they want to grow. New hosting companies and ISPs will be IPv6-only.

I'd expect at that point most large mobile networks, which are largely IPv6 already with IPv6 compatibility bolted on so customers can reach IPv4-only sites, to go IPv6-only.

There will be legacy applications that still need a real IPv4 address on the server side. The current incumbents will end up cemented as the winners of that service.
