It _is_ very nice code to look at, come to think. I would have Fish installed, if only for the scripting aspect.

But do show what you come up with. I am very into how people use automation in daily life.
Thanks. That's better. If SpaceX is really so dependent on Starlink i see doom for both. There are still substantiated doubts whether the buisness model of StarLink is solid and if it does an IPO if the buiness model is percieved as viable given potential competition from Bezos.
it's a SEO / blog spammers paradise, with terrible results, designed to drive usage of AdWords

Now that YouTube has gotten rid of dislikes expect YouTube to go down the same path. There will be more trash content and you'll only know once you watch the video (comments can be deleted).

YT injects ads in front of unmonetized videos now, so they'll have bigger metrics for engagement and make more $$ on pre-roll ads.
SIMT is a programming model, you are right.

But in the literature the term "SIMT architecture" is used to describe architectures optimized for the SIMT programming model.

Just search for "SIMT architecture" in google scholar or any other search engine dedicated to academic research, you will see that it's indeed a term used for this kind of architecture.

Yes, but the stock market would be better as it would allow the public to invest. Funding rounds are just a way to let the rich and privileged get even richer.
I usually have to turn off interpolation too, I also hate it, but whenever I do I end up cringing at the horizontal pans. :P Interpolation does wonderfully good things to horizontal pans, but terrible things to action sequences. A difficult tradeoff.

> Then there’s animation.

Random side note, but I never appreciated how well animators leverage variable frame rates, mixing ones, twos, and threes, until I watched an ex-Disney animator hand-animate a sequence in person. The pauses on threes and flashes of fast motion on ones adds a lot of character that I never really noticed when just watching cartoons as a kid. And yes, interpolation smooshes this into a muddy mess.
This will be enforced selectively to target both journalism Twitter finds inconvenient and political information that doesn't adhere to their politics. I'm glad I moved on from that dumpster fire some time ago.
You don't need new evidence to come to a new understanding of policy measures.

We were worried about supply chains, and then we weren't.

In a supply chain constraint, Doctors get masks, because they need them.

Beyond that, the general population for whom masks are marginally useful, can have them.

Because 'masks are a policy' then we have to wear them in certain environments with strict oversight, I think this has led some people to believe that they are some kind if 'important tool' when of course they are not, they're just a small measure, but an important one in the aggregate.

The author is perfectly within his rights to be curmudgeon, but he's not very reasonable in his argumentation, he's more or less venting and name calling, which is unfortunately the reality of most of the anti-vaxx populism: there are very few well orchestrated skeptic arguments.
Other way round. Raspberry Pi Trading is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Raspberry Pi Foundation.
I've thought about it and I think that the really infuriating thing is that somehow the program wrongly assumes that I made a typo, so it's wrong and telling me that I'm wrong. No! It's you!! You're wrong!!!

DDG is heading this wrong direction too. Today I've searched for some ecommerce platform called Comerzzia and it showed me some Comerzia or Comercia or whatever shops near me. It shows maps if it thinks they're related and apparently I can't disable that feature.
Database Performance: Deletion Timestamps and Indexing
Kind of like Amazon forcing a redo of the JEDI government cloud computing contract that they lost. Or Blue Origin trying to force a redo of the NASA lunar lander contract.
Thanks! What still triggers it the uncanny aspect for me is that these faces are all way too symmetrical. Even the most attractive actors have more left-right variation. There's no doubt the light diffusion on the skin is looking way better in these though.
This time Amazon will be sure not to engage in intimidation. That you can prove.
This isn’t actually going to be used against most people posting street photographs, just the ones Twitter wants to get rid of for which there isn’t already a tool in the TOS they can selectively apply. Goodthinkful citizens will not be affected.
Enjoyed that too. :)
> In fact there's not much reason not to be friendly towards other men

I get what you mean here, but when I was a kid, I was friends with everybody. It never occurred to me to not be, until I found out that, especially as an adolescent, you're judged by the company you keep (by both boys and girls). If you're friends with a bunch of "losers", you're a loser too. That's a stigma you can't escape, either. I learned in my teens to be way more aloof than I'm naturally inclined to be as a survival tactic.

There's less teenage drama as you get older but in reality it doesn't completely go away: there are still people (especially women) who will avoid you if your associate circle is too unimpressive.
Why only 800 yrs? In terms of geological record that seems like a very small window.
Yes, because it sux, in general. Maybe as an option.
And what about the visually impaired ? You add a soundtrack ? So basically a video. Of course the a transcript is available, right ?

So instead of going full circle, how about a good old text in the first place ?
> Despite the take that these public photographs are "privacy" violations, I think they should be celebrated

I don't know why your enjoyment of a photo should take priority over the right to privacy of people. In a world where anything could become a meme overnight, I would very much prefer my image to not be tweeted publicly without my consent, specially by people with a large audience.

If the photographer wants to portray those emotions, make the photo and ask later, and delete them if the person doesn't want to have a picture taken of. I understand that for most people the risks will outweigh the benefits.

Its silly, lots of people do their own taxes but forget what they normally charge per hour and how slow they do the taxes makes it not worth it. No one would hire them to do taxes at those rates.
I suppose what I'm trying to say is that in the case of positive opinions, it's not super common to leave them unprompted (see: all the popups in apps for "Like our app? Rate us on the app store!") whereas people angry at bad service have no compunctions about finding somewhere to vent, in public if they have to, and are super driven by their agitation.

Or vice versa. People with money tend to be conservative about trends and prospects, while with SpaceX we may have a qualitative change - like, remember in 1990-s there were talks that "this time it's different"? Do you see how that Internet thing went back to oblivion?

Investors had a sea change event in 2004, when X Prize was won; since then SpaceX was largely successful in demonstrating profitable innovations. However - judging by the absence of financing serious competitors to SpaceX - investors seems to be lagging with estimating SpaceX. So maybe - maybe - investors have still too much of doubts they've had before 2004.
Garbage sources have a serious habit of getting taken over. It's not that common with quality sites, but also not impossible. A simple downvoting system would be good enough.

Yes indeed all modern video codecs are based on encoding differences between key frames. GIF has the most basic implementation of that (it can update only a window in the image instead of the whole image).

The original GIF can actually be compressed losslessly down to just 1.4MB with a better compressor like https://gifcompressor.com .

MP4 (and similar codecs) are not typically very good at compressing regions of constant colour, while GIF is very good at that. However I have to admit that the output of that converter is acceptable in MP4, better than I would have expected (though noticeably worse quality).

BTW curiously (likely to better performance on regions of constant colour) the non-lossy WebP does better on this example coming in at just 1.2MB!
It's not just changing advice. It's refusal to acknowledge the false certainty with which the original advice was given, and that undermines any reason to trust the certainty with which current advice is being given.

If the WHO had said in the early days 'We're 55% certain masks do more harm than good' and then said 'we've looked at more data and are now 60% certain masks do more good than harm', I doubt many of us would be clowning them to the degree we are. It's the fact they spoke as if they had 100% certainty in one direction and then as if they had 100% certainty in the other that gives the impression these people don't know what they're doing.
> obtain enough market share to then extort consumers for higher prices (less value per dollar) later on?

Are there many examples of this extortion?

Casper and Blue Apron plummeted after adjusting pricing because they weren’t providing sufficient value. Uber became profitable. It probably lost some customers. But nobody I know felt extorted by it—those who didn’t like the new prices stopped using it.
An app using event sourcing does not need to be consuming events from an external messaging service nor does it need to be publishing messages to one. It could very well be receiving requests over a synchronous REST API from an HTML/JS UI.

I believe the point OP is trying to make, is that integration with a messaging service/queue is a separate concern from what event sourcing solves but that the internal event pipeline often looks very similar to a networked one and so the two solutions are conflated.
Holy cow, $10/mo for what amounts to Allrecipes? Our product, Homechart, does a whole lot more besides just recipe management and can be self hosted for free: https://homechart.app

For recipes, Homechart can import recipes from the web and gives you an "I'm feeling lucky" button that randomizes recipes for a meal plan based on parameters like when it was last made or specific tags. For our users, this seems to work well and let's them curate their recipe collection.
For CEOs, social media has lost its fun
What kind of ahistorical criticism is this?

The US was the first modern democracy. Were they supposed to go from dictatorial monarchy to universal suffrage in one day or be condemned forever?

If you want to criticize something, criticize the fact that we still don't have universal suffrage. In many states, felons can't vote. Which is cynically claimed as denying them something as punishment for their crimes, but in reality is done to prevent the victims of mass incarceration from becoming a large voting bloc to end it.
I can't speak to recruiters, but as a hiring manager I see padding as a yellow flag. I don't really want to see the same company listed three times consecutively unless you've spent 1+ year in substantially different roles.
Well lets say natural global warming will cause a rise of 5°C in the next 50 years. Then we have 50 years to adapt. But when we accelerate this change we might need to adapt in 5 years. And we might even cause a rise of 6°C instead of 5. I believe those are the big problems we are facing.
It's interesting how a lot of this hinges on a mailbox which was placed under Amazon's direction and unclear to employees if Amazon could also read the ballots from it. No doubt that is shady and weird.

I really wish more would/could be done about how Amazon mandated employees watch hours of propaganda and meeting with countless managers about how unions are bad. Almost everyone claims advertisements don't work on them and that if they were bombarded with messaging they wouldn't be affected, but hey advertisement isn't a billion dollar industry for nothing, and similarly I'm sure trillion dollar companies can pay for the best knowledge on union busting.
> There is a difference between making a profit and maximizing profit. A publicly traded company is legally bound to do the latter.

That's a lie.

There is NO such legal requirement at all. None.

I highly doubt it. The strain that would be placed on power plants and grids that will come with EV proliferation is not discussed enough. It's going to require significant, costly, and time consuming infrastructure upgrades.

It's worth noting that thermal efficiency is dictated by the delta T, so an air conditioner pushing twice the temperature difference burns more than twice the energy and produces more than twice the heat.

And the more heat we drive into urban spaces, the bigger the Heat Island Effect will be. There are twenty variables we can be tackling here and we need people tugging at all of them. More trees, better albedo on built structures, retrofitting for energy efficiency, and and and...
> Imagine a government across the world asking you to sell a portion of your business.

Imagine getting booted from that market. If it is truly some rando govt, your financial impact will be negligible. If not... now you have to justify getting booted to your shareholders.

That could be a very difficult exercise.

additionally there is always a new generation of non retired people who can do the non-automated tasks (in return for their FIRE money)
Fwiw, I've found that online application portals are nearly useless. Personal connections from your network are ideal; third-party recruiters can also work. But even something as simple as "my third cousin's college roommate can get me emailing with a real person at the company instead of bouncing off of an automated resume filter" can make all the difference.

Best of luck
I mean, as I understand it, this policy would only apply if the person in question objected to their picture being taken and disseminated.

And, to be honest, I'm probably OK with that. At the very least I am not convinced by older arguments of "you shouldn't have any expectations of privacy in a public place". I think there is a fundamental difference between other people being able to see you, heck even other people being able to take a picture of you, vs. it automatically being OK for others to disseminate your imagine to literally billions of people, recorded for all time.
1. It hides personal information from Bing.

2. DDG has its own search crawler (and it's getting larger, the more people use it).

You can also try SearX.

Yeah, and the "passing the keyboard" was my original comment as to why I can't personally waste the time to learn a different keyboard layout to QWERTY, or even a split keyboard, when everyone else (99%) use flat rectangular qwerty keyboards. I doubt I have the muscle memory to switch between the two in an office situation, so I may as well just remain one of the 99%.

Also, I can touch type, so I don't really see how squeezing out ten or so words per minute using dvorak is going to improve my productivity.
GP was saying how reddit is actually more useful than whatever Google returns today: that's the "hobbyist-only" shortcut for today. Because that blog post is long gone from Google's indexes, since replaced with SEO-optimized or "influencer" driven sales/content marketing.

I like to compare with search.marginalia.nu results from time to time, but the restrictions it puts on the content it traverses do not make for a good daily driver.
The elephant in the room is that videos take a long time to create. And thus hosting of the videos won’t easily be trusted to random server admins.

I barely trust pleroma/mastodon admins with my garbage little text posts. I wouldn’t want to put my hard work on a server with no guarantee of how long they’ll be there or if one of them will be deleted and maybe I won’t even realize it.

Yes, youtube sometimes deletes channels or videos. That isn’t perfect either. But somehow Peertube feels even worse because the entire fediverse is run by a bunch of “some guys” that are accountable to no one.
Honest question (am from Europe). Why are not unions (labor) part of the right to free association in the US? Or is it that they must comprise the whole labor force?

EDIT: Wow: thanks a lot. Unbelievably complicated to me…

BioNTech CEO Says Vaccines Likely Protect from Worst of Omicron
Because coronaviruses spread through droplets, there was concern that touch would be a significant vector of transmission. Droplets will land somewhere; then what?

If the virus could persist viably on surfaces, handling a soiled mask properly would be absolutely critical to getting any benefit from it, and handling it improperly would be risky. People wiped down their groceries for the same reason.

With the benefit of real data, we now know that touch is a negligible vector. The novel coronavirus does not persist viably for long on any surface. So masks are an excellent trade off.
Vicious (test) mockery of a Perl modulino
I used to think this until someone pointed out that the earth isn't a fixed distance from the Sun.. it varies throughout the orbit from a minimum of 91 million miles to a maximum of 94.5 million miles away.

So there's already a 3.5 million mile margin of error in our Goldilocks zone... we'd have to go way beyond a few miles of annual change to feel any impact.
IMHO, indexing the whole web is an antifeature for technical and research topics. But there are projects like CommonCrawl that crawl a good portion of the web and give it away free.
Unrelated, but a friend of my wife's got a phone call from their medical insurance, stating that they weren't up on all their shots. At the end, the call stated that it was paid for by Pfizer. Does anyone else find that creepy, stalker-ish, and borderline immoral?
Yes, exactly. These are all examples of organizations acting in bad faith - including the union here in this case.

Such things should not be allowed.
I don't really agree. I think it's completely valid to explore a GPU architecture in which rasterization is done in software, with a perhaps a bit of support in the ISA. That's what they've done here, and they do demonstrate running OpenGL ES.

The value of this approach depends on the workload. If it's mostly rasterizing large triangles with simple shaders, then a hardware rasterizer buys you a lot. However, as triangles get smaller, a pure software rasterizer can win (as demonstrated by Nanite). And as you spend more time in shaders, the relative amount of overhead from software rasterization decreases; this was shown in the cudaraster paper[1].

Overall, if we can get simpler hardware with more of a focus on compute power, I think that's a good thing, and I think it's completely fine to call that a GPU.

The sound wasn't as good as the SID, but it was still better than any other sound chip at the time. It had four voices when most chips had three and two of the 8-bit channels could be combined into a 16-bit channel, giving one 16-bit channel and two 8-bit channels, or two 16-bit channels, giving much better sound quality.
Yeah. But truth be told, I think the use of the word "like" makes it an analogy.
Did I read this right? You took a full-time job as a "holiday" from the stresses of being your own boss? I guess the grass truly is always greener.
Fair, but its still a real issue and solved in a similar way: Nix has finer grained reproducibility -- not only at the environment level but also at the derivation level. Being able to pick and choose which dependencies to update while ensuring other packages are left exactly the same is valuable to us.
This is brilliant.

I also like that it's powered by a "Meat Motor".

>"Why does an article about history have to address what is currently seen as the cutting edge of historiography?"

Identity politics is the « cutting edge of historiography » ?! It looks like the butt-end of it to me. At least I can't say I've seen it ever being taken seriously by proper historians in the periods I'm concerned with. Of course you could make the case that it's just conservatism and intellectual stiffness, and that it'll percolate eventually. You could also make the case that's it's not a very fruitful research field. The bulk of the work in social history and the history of mentalities has been done, as far as I'm aware, especially in regards to the Modern period. Historical materialism and its descent have ran their course, more or less. If anything the cutting edge of historiography is reassessing traditional narratives that predate it, as well as feeding on the progress in other disciplines that use a lot of computer modelling (genetics, linguistics).
I've seen this trope of a lack of trustable science often here. But the people not trusting the science (that I've come across) would usually not have the ability to replicate science anyway, for a lack of education. The other group to not "trust the science" usually is making their money in some of the causes of global warming.

Just a few weeks back, Saudi Arabia (and some other countries I'm missing) insisted on weakening the claims made in a joint statement/study of the COP.

The lack of trust in science (imho) stems from the fact that pretty big news organisations (fox, Bild etc) are doing their best to ease the cognitive dissonance of their audience by claiming them unreliable. The ivory tower is just a propaganda trope at this point
It's true, there is some absorption: https://www.eea.europa.eu/ims/ocean-acidification and it's gonna make the situation so much worse it's hard to even imagine right now.
> maybe some MORE companies could come in and build successful businesses in the space

This rejects that these businesses required scale to be successful, strengthening the claim that they were not “failed businesses.”
How to keep your control system young
The guy is basically a flipper and provides no value. He buys up stuff off the market at a low price using his existing capital and then puts it back on the market at a higher price.

It’s literally no different than the market manipulation you’d see on World of Warcraft or some other game where there’s a marketplace. People with a ton of money would buy up items at a lower price and then relist them at a ridiculous price - all the while having bots to watch for any listings that were significantly under theirs to make sure no one would buy except from them.

I hate how this is considered a “business”. What a joke.
I wonder if there is a motion interpolation version of something like an edge preserving smoothing filter. In 2D image processing these are used extensively.
Not really. It's a sign that you can't profitably compete with Google.
