If each command would only be executed two communication turns in the future, and a communication turn is ~200ms, isn't there ~600ms of lag for each command?

> For RTS games, 250 milliseconds of command latency was not even noticed -- between 250 and 500 msec was very playable, and beyond 500 it started to be noticeable.

The article mentions this as well, so was ~600ms latency just expected?

Why doesn't it work to execute commands _one_ communication turn in the future?
Nominal prices falling is the widely held definition of deflation.

That's good to hear! Blackmar-Diemer is favoured by this ranking system as although it's a longish line, the opponent's move are all fairly probable, with the least probable being Qxd4 at still around 20%.
Alternatively, inform yourself and take a conscious and thoughtful decision using the information at your disposal. Don’t let others (especially the government) push you around to take or not take the vaccine.
How so?

I have heard others say that he was sexist. If true isn't it more of a sad indictment of Feynman?

But I'd rather focus on the positive things attributed to him and not pull the conversation down to "cancelling" (or whatever the term is today).
On a similar note, I’ve noticed California has made multiple exceptions for union workers (teaching, transit, etc) in terms of the mandate.

Less to do with staffing levels and more to do with voting blocks I’d presume.
Unfortunately the only thing they seem to do is exclude that song from that playlist. I've had things I disliked on one radio station come up on a different station 30 minutes later.

I just recently switch to Spotify from YouTube Music (as a former diehard Google Play fan) maybe 6 weeks ago. Everyone raved about how great the recommendation system was but I'm certainly not seeing it yet after spending several weeks diligently liking/disliking songs, entering in favorite artists, etc.
This is a wonderful ANECDOTAL story. I'm happy for her.

However:

Statistically it's unlikely to be common future - you can not generalize reality from specific cases from the tails of the distribution!

If you categorized her before addiction, I'm sure you'd find the same qualities for success: IQ, grit, impulse control more generally (obviously some fail this when they become addicted but certain drugs often require such a fail only once), etc.

So I'm glad she's a successful exception, but she still is an exception. Most people who don't even become addicted do NOT have the personality, genetics, socialization that could allow a similar success - she's multiply lucky just like most people who are successful combined with having been dealt a better than average hand by genetics and childhood.
> It would be nice if I can get the files into git that I can save to a private github repo

It's just a directory of markdown files. Nothing preventing that directory from being a Git repo. Lots of people use it that way (or with Syncthing, Dropbox, or whatever).
Nope. This was on the creator's page. I commented with the word "poof" as described and sure enough about 25 seconds later the comment was removed.
You're not explaining why people should do this through Offshoots, rather than directly through One Tree Planted. IOW, what's the value proposition that you provide.

(I think that you might have explained that in your initial post here. But I want you to make it explicit again here and on the site so that it's clear to you as well as everybody else.)

Also, you know you're a good person. Your family and friends know you're a good person. The people coming to your site don't. I see that you added an About Us page. But it's not enough.

Full name and pictures could be a big help here. Some kind of vouching communication from One Tree Planted would also be a big help.

> once you start going - it becomes easier and easier

This may hold for activities like programming, where every decision follows almost logically from the previous ones. But if you're doing really hard research, with setback after setback, then it's much harder to "ignite" a work appetite.
Yeah, I clearly misremembered/mistrusted what my partner (Irish) told me and paid the karma cost :) Oh well.
> It’s always been the rule in the German-speaking world that websites had to disclose someone responsible, both on-site and in Whois.

Only onsite in the publishing information ("impressum"), not in the whois.

Also it is only required for websites "used for commercial(1) purpose", but not on private sites not used for commercial purpose. (1: Not perfect translation of the word used in the law. Websites from various organizations can count as "commercial purpose" in that context even if they don't sell you anything and the organization is a political one. Similar in some cases private websites can also count as such.)

Similar flyers handed out by organizations, companies etc. have to have publishing information. But flyers handed out by a private person for no commercial purpose and without in anyway being related to a organization do not need publishing information as far as I know. So if you go to a demo and hand out flies of cat pictures you have drawn you don't need an impressum (publishing information) I think.
I actually think this is one of the reasons I like go so much, and now write code in it almost exclusively -- it isn't really a community project, but rather a labour of love from a small number of genuine experts.

If it actually were a community project, I think we would have more of the "x := make(someType) vs. x := someType{}" TMTOWTDI that you find in other mature languages, and go would be weaker for it.
To avoid dependency management at my end, for a project that requires JavaFX.
The conditions in the residential real estate and mortgage markets are so much different now vs the late aughts. Lending is more conservative, appraisals are more conservative, borrowers are stronger, and there's not a glut/oversupply of new housing.
Agree to disagree. Like I said, please ban my account. No need to further waste each other's time.
Yeah, as a rule of thumb potato and rice can feed twice as many people compared to wheat or other crops. Europe had neither so the potato was an instant hit since the alternative was to starve.
It's very neat but closed-source and by the looks of it is likely to stay that way. I can't see it being used in any mission-critical projects unless the source is fully disclosed and viewed/analysed by the community... until then it's a "nifty black box".
Well the most vocal are always those riding on their emotions, like anger. For every angry gamer theres a larger group who couldn't give a s***. Nor is any of this limited to gaming. People will get angry about any form of entertainment, whether its a remake of a cult fav movie, a band changing their sound, you name it there is someone whinging about it. All that anger fuels the net, driving up those ad clicks with divisive headlines so they can fill those rotten comment sections.
Aside from the technical characteristics of Obsidian, they have created a great community, particularly on Discord. They sell things (I'm a happy customer) but you can use it completely free. No nagging to buy or hitting you with ads or anything.
Well said. Not everyone is meant to be a founder and that's ok.
The vast majority of people have not heard of man pages, and won't at all be excited or thrilled when you tell them about them. People want to use their computer, not learn how it works. People want to be able to accomplish simple tasks without having to absorb a textbook first.
I don't get it. If you cap income then some people stop working and other people start working. There is no need for parasites. The idea of an income cap is wrong because absolute income does not determine willingness to spend. It is unspent money that should be capped via taxes.
I use both Notion and Obsidian. The main difference is that Notion is an entire database processing platform, especially once you get into mirroring databases, and getting savvy with filters and check boxes. Not to mention the fact that everything in Notion is its own page. This makes it wildly customizable, and again, programmable.

Obsidian is a lot more static. It's basic strengthis having offline capabilities, simplicity, and markdown. I use it exclusively for my Zettelkasten, which I also have on Notion (I started my ZK and migrated it over to Obsidian). Obsidian is great for ZK in part due to its simultaneous multiple panel openings. So, you can see multiple notes at once. Notion can do this too, and I've use its Gallery fxn for exactly that, but there's something less claggy about Obsidian in this regard.

Notion is great for GTD and project management (again, when used dynamically with filters etc). Obsidian is great for note storage and retrieval, as well as processing ideas and arguments for use later in writing articles, scripts, etc.

Wrong incentives at play. It's not that people want it, they force 3D movies on you and charge you for the glasses. Easy money.
Scientists are the ones telling people. Not governments.
Wrong, tests are not the bottleneck, you'll have to present well, play along politics, fake. You could be the best person on earth, if someone doesn't feel you, you're out.
I can't think of a good way to do this purely based on move stats: I think you'd want to involve the engine. There's a Stockfish package for Python you could use, and it wouldn't be expensive or difficult to query the few evaluations you'd need. I would say a suboptimal move is when the evaluation changes by more than X, maybe 50 or 80 centipawns.

I tried out the project and sent you a couple of minor pull requests. I wanted to score my pet trap:

1. e4 c6 2. Nf3 d5 3. d3 dxe4 4. Ng5 exd3 5. Bxd3

after which the most popular moves Nf6 (trap score 34%) and h6 (trap score 29%) both lose immediately to Nxf7 (if Kxf7, Bg6+ and Qxd8 wins the queen). I've seen plenty of titled players fall for this. I think the correct way to score this trap is the sum of those trap scores, because the "trap" is set after Bd3, but there are multiple ways to fall into it. That would give it by far the highest score at 63%, but maybe changing the methodology this way would also increase the score of your other traps.

The claim people take offense for is specifically about beef - not about pork.

But really, at least based on what my grandmother said, meat was luxury item once a week thing. Cooked in away that uses it to the max. They were relatively well off small farm family, they were not poor. The traditional food I read about when I read about historical lifestyles was also largely non-meat. (Not to be confused with vegetarian, like bacon etc was part of it)

The eat meat everyday thing we have going on was not a thing in the past. It requires huge amount of animals being raised and killed, meat to be stored in freezers and so on.
I really don't get the need for it.
Open the terminal. Type "man git" and you're done!
Misleading headline.

“ When conducting the photoelectric measurements, the new material was irradiated with laser light. The result was unexpected: compared to pure barium titanate of a similar thickness, the current flow was up to 10 times stronger”

So, 10x compared to pure barium titanite, not compared with silicon. Silicon is already more than 10% efficient, so an increase of 1000% would be impossible.
Hm, shouldn't they first update the (most important/interesting) libraries in a fork before stabilizing generics?

I mean designing a feature in a clean room is one think, but using it a the standard library would be a good way to know if they messed up the design in some way.
Funny, because our internet has become a miserable place where corporations run everything.

Corporations literally buy laws via lobbyists. Capitalism doesn't have to encourage corruption: it's already corrupted.
I've seen many 3D movies in theaters, and they never charged extra for the glasses. Where are they doing this? It would only make sense if there was an option to bring your own, but that's not the case.
Your reply does not address the OP's point at all. There is a perception of voter fraud in this country, but no actual fraud. For all the talk about dead people voting, barely any such votes have showed up.

A refutation of OP's statement would involve you actually demonstrating statistics of fraud across the country, not references to foreign countries and their protocols that might differ.

The success of any voter registration protocol should be evaluated through the lens of Type 1 and Type 2 errors in a statistical model. There are almost zero Type 1 errors in the current US protocol. The Republican agitation is trying to increase Type 2 errors, on the faux premise that Type 1 errors are high - which is completely baseless.

It is fashionable in "intellectual " forums to pretend that conservative actions have a legitimate basis, but they are mostly about undermining democracy.

I’d check out logseq [0]. Closer to roam than obsidian, but GPL, operates on plaintext files, and supports Org-mode style formatting as well as markdown. It’s getting to be fairly fully featured by now, and the development team moves fast. It’s a joy to use.

Go is not in the business of copy-pasting other language designs. That much should be obvious by now.

The questions aren't around the algorithms. They're about Go specific things like how to deal with legacy std library parts that are made obsolete by generics.
If you read any science papers, they start with a clear introduction with the aims, claims, importance and novelty of the work. A lot of math papers (but not all) just start off with a dry statement of what the theorems being proved are, and jump right into the proofs.

I always wonder why editors don't understand the importance of these things and don't enforce them.

Activist investors are a small subset of all investors. Most investors are just out there to ride the business cycle to the top.

Probably better for employees. Canadian Pacific was a well governed, profitable company when Bill Ackerman raided the company and laid off 4500 unionized workers to goose the share price. I would be furious if a sociopathic activist investor did this to my company.
I haven't used it in a while, but this was a big advantage of Pandora for me. With pandora, you start a 'station' with a few seed songs and as you like/dislike songs, it keeps refining the station.

The downside to Pandora is that you can't choose your music. You can seed a station with a specific song, but that song might not be the first one played.

What I really liked with Pandora was that it was really good at producing endless playlists for me to listen to at work or car rides. I was a paid subscriber when I worked night shifts and drove a lot more. Spotify stations are really hit or miss. Sometimes the Spotify stations dive into foreign music and I can't find a way to specify which language of music I want to hear.
I will never understand how git became the de facto standard when everyone can see at first glance how terrible it is.

My main gripe with Obsidian. That, and the fact that it costs almost $100 to have the mobile app sync with the desktop. That's insane to me, and feels vindictive. I'm all for paying for the platform. Seriously. These ventures need bottom - up support. But, syncing is a basic feature that any mobile app should have baked in. Charge for 24-hour support, something that actually requires the time of the team.

Pandora has filters for it's radios labeled as "deep cuts" or "most popular" that attempts some of this.

Netflix Estimates ‘Squid Game’ Will Be Worth Almost $900M
Depends on the scale of the outcome and whether you are growing in responsibility/impact as the business grows. If you want to make $1+M on a $50M outcome you better be early and hope management doesn’t raise too much money. If you want to make $1+M on a $5B outcome, you want to be a top 200 employee, which is certainly easier if you are early, but is possible if you come later and make a big contribution.
One thing missing from all the media accounts of these strikes is an understanding that organizing a workforce enough to produce a strike takes years of dedicated work. Every worker that joins the union has to be persuaded one on one, you have to get the backing of community leaders, then you slowly start to do solidarity actions like everyone wearing a pin or whatever. You don’t call a strike unless you have enough support that you’re pretty sure you’re going to win. The strike itself is the tip of the iceberg.

What this means is that a massive wave of union organizing has been happening for years now which the media has, for better or worse, been downplaying or ignoring.
Not a book, but I have found Trey Hunner's https://www.pythonmorsels.com/ exercises very useful on this front.

Sounds like by "some" the mean "two". Or are Zuck & Sweeney just backing VR and as clueless about this new metaterminology as I am?

This reminds me of the attempt 2 years ago to rebrand AR&VR collectively as the even more confusing "XR".

It's just VR. Call it VR. And it's not a new trend, VR undergoing a resurgence for some time now.

My guess is a big war over resources will happen, e.g. https://asiatimes.com/2021/01/china-risks-a-himalayan-water-... . Worsening of the climate refugee crisis, even within the US itself, with people moving from flooded (due to sea-level rise) or dried parts or burning parts of the country to other parts. Dry or burning California also can't supply food, in 2010 Russia stopped exporting grains after big forest fires, and the rise of food prices pissed of many people and led to the Arab Spring.

The Northern Europeans don't have the same love of bubble we do. They plan long term.

The Chinese are facing the same temptations we are now. At least some of the time they make longer term choices. I won't pretend that's always the case, but at least some of the time it is (eg the current Evergrande situation).

They have their own political issues so I'm definitely not saying we should just copy them. But their ability to plan more than 2 years ahead is a major advantage they have over us...
