Yes, you can.

But it still means attack-moving 108 units (aka: 9 groups, all labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) requires 18-actions.

That is: 1 (select group 1), then a, then left click on the attack-area. Then 2 (select group 2), a, left click on attack area. Etc. etc.

That's a difference of 18-apm (Starcraft Brood War) vs 2-apm (Starcraft 2). Furthermore, that "Group 1" in SC2 could have 150-units or 200-units (or 400-zerglings, lol) in it. They pretty much made death-balls have 10% of the APM requirement in SC2 compared to SC:Brood War.

I'm all for making the game easier and more accessible: but the death-ball tactic was a little bit "too obvious" and kind of unfun to watch, compared to the tightly coordinated groups of 12 that SC: Brood War was famous for. The groups were too big, numerical advantage was the biggest advantage in SC 2 IMO.
How does this compare to OpenMP? Does it support nested parallelism? (disclaimer: haven't read the post thoroughly).

Yeah, I wish mergers and acquisitions didn't make so much money so that there would be less incentive to let companies merge and get acquired.

> That being said, the "super like" I used yesterday to match with a woman who I'm taking out for dinner tonight cost me the equivalent of half a cup of coffee. Worth it? Who's to say.

I guess there's a part of me that wishes this were pure serendipity or good strategy on your part, and another part that feels suspicious that Tinder could just manipulate the process somehow by front-loading your match with people she'd really not find attractive or even would anger her, then land you right after. Maybe I give them too much manipulation credit and yet without any insight into how their algorithms work, I guess we just take their word for it or leave?

Also, just came up with a slogan that could maybe change how these orgs work (perhaps less so for Tinder but for more social media platforms): "No creation without representation."

If the risk of say 'gang banging' is higher but it's not a problem because the number of people involved in the activity is lower then I think that is a bad argument for treating 'gang banging' differently.

For example what if I was to claim there are really two distinct groups of 'unvaccinated' Covid people. Group A and Group B unvaccinated. Group A only contains 1 person and very clearly is not clogging up the hospitals. Someone claims to be 'Group A' unvaccinated and asserts their actions are not a problem because they are not clogging up the system.

A more realistic example is there are 20 smaller groups of people that in total are the same size as the Covid unvaccinated group but these groups have twice the risk as the unvaccinated group. If we make decisions based on group_size * risk then these groups are fine but we see that combined they have a much worse effect on capacity than the unvaccinated group. If we make decisions based solely on risk and not risk * group_size then the 'triage' protocol is going to make more sense.

Practically, you might have to treat groups differently because it's impossible to make efficient rules for a lot of small groups but ignoring the practical costs of rule making it is risk that is important not the size of the groups.

There has been past discussion of RaveDJ, but it has improved significantly since then.

In college, I would frequent the Mashups room on turntable.fm and use it as background music for studying, so I was pretty excited to see this.

I spent more time than I'd care to admit when I found it creating new mashups and also comparing/contrasting them to some of my favorite human created mashups.

Here's an example of one I actually enjoyed. (Note: Ads will autoplay prior to playback) https://rave.dj/G7AS9HjKvBK6Nw

If you'd like to compare and contrast with some mashups created by humans, I'd encourage you to check out The White Panda, Super Mash Bros, 5 & A Dime, 3LAU, and Kapslap. Fair warning, a lot of this material may only be available on YouTube or SoundCloud.

Finally, I know some of the people that created RaveDJ are on HN and if they happen to see this, a technical write-up of how RaveDJ works would be of great interest to me, and others I'm sure, if you have time.
Well good thing independent contractors are exempt from minimum wage laws! And union protections, mandatory breaks, sick days, workers compensation, health insurance, overtime pay, discrimination law, unemployment insurance, employer liabilities to social security pay...

Wait a minute, I think this is intentional! Can you imagine an employer trying to subvert the gains of the labor movement?!
Honestly that's also sort of a sad statement on the current state of affairs as far as corporate consolidation goes these days.
I think this is a pretty reasonable article, particularly the section on unintended consequences of these policies.

In a bureaucracy, policies are designed around fixing what is measured. If the only thing that is focused on is COVID-19 cases rather than general health, far more overall harm might be imposed on the public health from the vaccine passports.

> One of the most important risk factors for severe COVID-19 illness is obesity. Many people rely on gyms, especially during the winter months, to access physical activity and maintain their ideal body weight. Those who live in apartment dwellings may not have access to green spaces for exercise. Thus, by barring access to gyms, we are restricting physical activity, which in turn contributes to increasing rates of obesity and greater risk for severe disease.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who tends to gain more than a few pounds during winter. What do you think is going to happen when you impose significant barriers to a large number of people from working out? Many people are going to stop working out and gain far more weight. Not only does this have a significant impact on COVID outcomes, but also heart-disease and other health conditions.

Humans are pleasure-seeking creatures. What do you think will happen when you block them from going out peacefully anywhere fun for the winter? Winters in cities are already miserable experiences. People are going to turn to things that are accessible to them for pleasure: maybe drugs, alcohol, risky sexual and other behaviors, stuffing their faces with sugary food, etc.

The unintended consequences of vaccine mandates may lead to dramatically worse overall health outcome on a population level.

No one encrypts their email because the content is boring stuff that isn't worth encrypting. The lack of context itself serves as a mild form of encryption.

The real problem with email is not secrecy but privacy --- or the lack thereof. Anyone who gets your email address can start spamming your inbox at will.

What's really missing is an easy way to control your inbox and restrict it to only allow approved contacts.
Funny, you probably harbor none of the same ill will (or desire for political retribution) to the people living in high comfort as a result of the relentless drive to profit-centered care in this country, which slashed the number of hospital beds from 1.4 million in 1975 to 900,000 in 2015, even as population increased by almost 50%.

I don't really see how an engineer at Blue Origin is more willing to take risks or has more ownership in the results than say an engineer at NASA JPL.

Honestly the way I look at it, these issues all have such a simple solution. The user experience can be so much better, but MSFT does not want that. They want a confusing experience that pretends they aren’t monopolizing their platform.

Even if the lowest common denominator can navigate the settings (eventually) it’s still not an excuse to make shitty UX paradigms.

Profit-driven enterprises automatically fail when the product is not desired by the market, or the firm is not operating sufficiently efficiently.

The formalization of this is "Lanchester's Laws", equations that estimate the strength of unit numbers. Here is an excellent video explaining these laws in the context of Age of Empires 2:

https://youtu.be/wpjxWBwLkIE
From the Abstract:

"""
It is estimated that companies located in the EU invested around €1 billion in OSS in 2018, which resulted in an impact on the European economy of between €65 and €95 billion. The analysis estimates a cost-benefit ratio of above 1:4 and predicts that an increase of 10% of OSS contributions would annually generate an additional 0.4% to 0.6% GDP as well as more than 600 additional ICT start-ups in the EU.
"""
D'oh, yes I did. Thanks.
It's worth noting that this has been an informal rule for over 20 years, the organisations in question are Postgres specific specialists and the developers in question have long histories with the project. I don't think it's quite the same to be honest.

> But please no hourly pay.

You might be willing to work for less than minimum wage, but in reality minimum wages exist because without them they create a race-to-the-bottom for workers, and it's very hard to write a policy that's something like "you can pay a person less if they are enjoying it and are reading a book and not really doing that much".

Waiting time is a regular part of jobs and we pay for it in other career paths - can you imagine if everyone only had to pay security guards for the time spent apprehending thief's and they got no pay for all the waiting around reading newspapers they do?
I disagree. Its more just sensationalization by journalists. The actual paper talks more about an existing model for mice and how their findings are consistent with the model. The most outrageous claim they make is that the study demonstrates the efficacy of HBOT on Alzheimers, which is technically the truth but misleading in the sense that it demonstrates how effective it could be.

The authors should be happy to have added to ongoing alzheimers research. Their actual claims are much less bold than the article makes them out to be.

Are you sure about that? The reason is certainly not the quality of incoming personnel, as even german docs have to repeat residency. And TBH, I'm quite convinced that the average german doc is better than the average US doc. The real reason is about having complete control over the health worker supply.

Glad to see this. I view homeschooling as increasingly important in an era where schools are being used for political indoctrination, for example with the injection of CRT and CRT-based ideology into classrooms. I see friends who are teachers often talking about “critical pedagogy”, which is explicitly political and activist. Parents shouldn’t have to monitor how their children are being mismanaged by those in a position of trust, but here we are. For parental rights to have any meaning, homeschooling and school choice more broadly, are critical.

“Someone has to get hurt, occasionally”
The thing about what Facebook is doing is that it may be impossible. And if it's not impossible, it may be a profoundly bad idea.

Facebook is trying to build a social network with 100% reach and a userbase beholden to a globally uniform set of rules (where possible; the laws of individual nations will forever intervene). This is not something that has ever succeeded. We don't actually know, apriori, whether you can govern the whole of humanity under one set of norms. It's never been done.

It's possible it fundamentally can't be done... That the end result of this experiment is that Facebook fractures and ends up either having to vend multiple views of its userbase with different rules (like Reddit) or has a large chunk of the human populace it can never get on-board. But we should keep in mind what the goal is.
Could you elaborate on what is so important about the chair of the foundation? From what I understand, it's not really stewardship of the language so much as stewardship of a bunch of administrative minutiae.
Then the fact anything is would be wrong, which if believed truly leads the only reasonable behavior to be the most destructive behavior (what is, existence, is bad, so destroying it is good).

> I think the only OOP is the instantiation of the controllers ... which are instantiated per request => pointless ;).

which has nothing to do with oop. that is IoC and they are (by default) scoped per request (but do not need to be scoped per request, singleton controllers are fine. (AddControllersAsServices)) btw. controllers by default do not get "built" by IoC but the helper "ActivatorUtilities#CreateInstance<T>(IServiceProvider, Object[])" uses it to resolve dependencies of the controller. if you add "AddControllersAsServices" it will use the IoC directly and skip using "ActivatorUtilities#CreateInstance" (and the IServiceProvider of the controller as created with the IServiceScopeFactory) and you can basically overwrite the behavior however you want, by using `IControllerFactory`.

> How do you enforce regional restrictions on immigration? Once someone is a citizen they can move anywhere within the country.

I'll preface this by saying that this my anecdotal understanding of the Canadian immigration process. Essentially provinces can nominate the immigration of certain desirable professionals, boosting their cases to the top of the queue for an immigrant visa. It comes with a requirement to live and work in the sponsoring province for a minimum period of time - something like 3 years. Immigrants are also eligible to apply for citizenship after 3 years of residency, and citizens have the right to live and work anywhere. From my understanding of the provincial nominee system is that they strongly prefer that you have an existing social and family network within the province, encouraging you to stay put even after you become a citizen.

I mean, anyway, being naturalised here happens when you are in a stable situation, and is very symbolic in that case, so there is no rush.

If you live in France, you are welcome to be in here, you can vote for local elections if you're from the EU, you pay taxes or not according to your income, like anyone else, you can access the full social security system and other public services,...

I understand that being French is a stateless concept about living in here and sharing the moment, and it's not just a legal status ; so it makes sense if it takes time, but it arrives eventually.
In many cases this will be a felony, FYI.

I’m not following. My original comment called for the nationalization of things that drain the entire economy.

This implies said companies have already “won,” and that they’ve made (a lot of) money.

Your comment would make more sense if I was calling for the transitioning to communism.

Uber, for example wouldn’t be nationalized because its product type hasn’t become so pervasive that a majority of Americans use it. Debit cards and their ilk have.

If it wasn't just for dramatic effect, why would an organization go out of its way to retain you?

And if it was for dramatic effect, why would an organization go out of its way to retain you?

I mean you believe your manager made an incompetent staffing decision. And have created a problem for your manager.

Good luck.
All companies need to flirt with things that might be good. Some of those things will turn out so great that you leave your orignial company behind, while others will be duds that you drop, and still others will be small side businesses that make you a bit of money in down times but otherwise are just barely worth doing. Intel used to be a memory company that flirted with making CPUs. I don't recall when they left the memory business (I think in the 1980s)
Two laws, for two different situations.

Lanchester's Square Law applies to Starcraft, AoE2, Axis and Allies, etc. etc. The assumptions therein are "ranged units all within fire of each other"

Lanchester's Linear Law applies to Risk, Hearts of Iron, and "bottleneck" situations in Starcraft/AoE2, etc. etc. The Linear law applies when units are no longer within reach of each other, and are instead seen as reinforcements to a limited sized "front" where combat takes place.

In Risk: only 3 units can ever be attacking, and only 2-units can ever be defending. This is the conditions of the linear law.

In Starcraft / AoE2, a "bottleneck" may force a limited number of melee units to fight, leading to a rare situation of the linear law in action.

Hearts of Iron "saturated frontline" concept also gets into the linear-law. Once the frontline is saturated, additional reinforcements do nothing to change the battle.

--------

Take those assumptions, craft a rather straightforward differential equation out of them, and solve. Bam, you've arrived at Lanchester's Laws (though Lanchester was the tactical genius who figured this out over a hundred years ago).

Modern board games almost always come back to Lanchester's laws. Lanchester wrote and published those differential equations so that generals could create wargames after all, to train their armies / commanders.
You have provided your own examples. "Development of doctrine" seems to refer to events in a time necessarily much later than its original composition.
