I recently went back to Second Life because it was the platform of a social group that was going virtual due to covid.

I was able to buy a custom penis; the avatars do not come with fully functional sexual organs.

However, when I put my pants back on, my member was clearly visible, protruding out of my pants. I had to manually set the penis to invisible, or else stop "wearing" it in public situations where nudity was not encouraged.

Sort of amazing it is still around, when did it come out -- 2004 perhaps?

His name is better known across the former USSR, but I really doubt his viewership is any broader.
Not OP but I had a scenario where I had a row with a variable number of items, left-aligned, and then the final item had to be right-aligned. "margin-left: auto" on the final item achieves that effect.
Now I want some, look at what you've started.
I suspect the nested option type in this particular implementation has to do with the step-by-step implementation in the guide, as you gradually add various features one at a time. As a result, you might end up with some features in your code that reflect less-general behaviors from earlier chapters, if you don't fully refactor them as you go along.

https://raytracing.github.io/books/RayTracingInOneWeekend.ht...

I don't think there are actually any cases in which you can usefully do something with the color but without the ray (the reason that the ray output is optional is that the ray might be absorbed rather than reflected, but in this case I think its color becomes meaningless, or becomes the equivalent of (0.0, 0.0, 0.0)). However, someone implementing this based on the tutorial might not think of it that way, because the different features in question were added separately at different times.

In the original C++ example in the tutorial, there is a boolean return value indicating whether there is an output ray or not, which I think corresponds to the Some case for the option type here. As there is ultimately only one boolean, not two, and as material implementations are expected to set both the ray and the color when scattering occurs, I think it's correct that you could combine the vector and color return values into a single struct wrapped in a single option type, at least with the implementation strategy that the tutorial is suggesting.

I worked through about 90% of the guide in Python and then about 60% in Rust; this article definitely makes me want to pick it up again.

Edit:

> The `Some((None, Srgb))` case would be a non-reflective surface, it changes the color if hit by a ray but does not reflect the ray further.

While this feels like a plausible guess, I don't believe it actually aligns with the strategy suggested in the tutorial. See section 8:

https://raytracing.github.io/books/RayTracingInOneWeekend.ht...

Diffuse materials (non-specular reflection) are implemented by having them scatter incident light in a random direction, possibly with some attenuation and some change of color. The change of color, though, is only meaningful when rays are scattered. See also section 9.3

https://raytracing.github.io/books/RayTracingInOneWeekend.ht...

(talking about how you can either scatter every ray and attenuate its intensity, or scatter a fraction of rays with no attenuation but absorb some rays at random, with the same statistical result on the output)

Margins are part of the specification of CSS. Banning them would be crazy.

If you don't like thinking about them, sure .. introduce the concept of spacer elements in your framework. But outlawing something because you don't fully understand its purpose isn't the way to go.
That would not be healthy indeed. Dehydration combined with sitting still for so long is a recipe for thrombosis.

In 1958 the Chinese built the WP-5/PF-1 the WP-1A, which was a license built version of the Soviet VK-1 and descendants.

The first Chinese-designed jet engine was the WP-14, and the project started in the mid 80s.

China did not have enough engineers to rival the USSR until after the fall.

> That shows how much you know. It is a huge priority for them and it has been for a long time.

It really hasn't. Defence in general is not a big priority of the Chinese state. Even within defence, producing new airframes is a much bigger than domestic engines.

> Not the most advanced ones.

Incorrect. The most advanced Russian engine in mass production is the AL-31F series, which is sold to China. Further developments intended for production, the AL-41F, are not in mass production.
> I do agree generally, but it's funny that the suggested solution (spacers) are basically back to the old 1px transparent gif trick from the 90s/early 00s.

They aren't the same thing. Check the link in the article [1]. It is using regular CSS, and some of those components use more modern things like Grids.

They also aren't applied between components like old element-spacers. Component Spacers have much more in common with regular margin/padding than with 90s spacers.

This is weird for me. You're not going to believe this but a long time ago I worked in a BMW factory making the rear pillar for the 3-series. It was made of about 4 pieces which were already cut and shaped. I clipped these pieces into a machine which would then spot-weld them together. I would take out the finished piece and load it onto a rack (this is probably all automated now). My qouta was about 480 pieces per shift which kept me really busy. I didn't even know that this shape was called a Hofmeister kink.
Not something I know much about but assuming there was a lot of selective pressure because the virus was in a new environment, likely a mouse, and one virus gets a silent mutation and another a non-silent, the non silent might zip ahead and take over?

Let's be honest, she probably didn't have a clue what was going on. She just stuck to the narrative which became more and more distant from a reality she could not grasp.
Ironically, that's exactly how HN does spacing of the comments. The 90s will never die!
I would recommend reading the article, or at least the top comments here. This is not what the article is advocating.
Turns out in Brazillian Portuguese the form "Sutil" is more common than "Subtil". In Portugal there's only "Subtil". So it didn't fail you exactly, and I was unaware of that difference.
As a counterpoint, IMO it's important that people are only prosecuted when there is sufficient evidence for a likely and safe conviction (otherwise at best we will drag everyone through expensive court battles which don't lead anywhere, and at worst we will end up with unsafe convictions).
Came across this very useful project. It provides Docker images with Android running directly in Docker, without qemu or an emulator. I've never seen this before, all other solutions that I'm aware of either run the Android emulator in Docker or use qemu directly (like Anbox).

Advantage of this is that it's very lightweight and does not require VT-X or AMD-V, ideal for running in cloud environments that typically do not expose this CPU capability.
Where was the negativity for the black and blue dress which looked white and gold? Engagement is the favorite hypocrite media bogeyman but unless advertisers voice concerns/pay otherwise by default it does not have any reason care about it.

If it was just negativity that sold news, and especially the 24-7 loops wouldn't be doing so bad. Ceaseless negativity and similiar are a sugar high for customer interactions. It inflates engagement numbers but it conditions them against using it long term once a breaking point is reached or outside events make them disengage and leave them with no reason to come back.

Just thinking aloud, but think about a (very, very) large (traditional) camera, you have this roll of film that you advance one frame at the time, and then expose to sunlight.

Once every - say - two or three years, when it doesn't produce anymore enough electricity, you advance one frame and once every (say) ten or twenty years, you change the film roll.

> because you don't fully understand its purpose

How did you arrive at the conclusion that OP doesn't understand margins?
The only takeaway is that the burden is on the prosecutors to prove that she defrauded the patients..and they failed to meet the burden.
You’ve admitted yourself that the article is highly opinionated and full of hyperbole so I don’t really see why you’re confused by my statement. But I’ll answer your question nonetheless.

Any article stating something should be “banned” can’t really be described as a balanced discussion about the usage of that thing.

I’m all for discussions on why usage of something is bad but in the case of margins there’s clearly use cases that are suited to it, which other commenters have highlighted but which the article entirely glossed over.

So the article is more than just written as a persuasive piece; it misses any balance or contextual clarity and thus ends up dishing out bad advice as a result. Bad advice that is so strongly emphasised that lesser experienced developers would easily be intimidated by it.

Now if people want to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of margins and put forward alternative solutions in the process, that at least informs lesser experienced developers about ways to solve their real world problems rather than berating them for not following some misguided idealised view of perfection.

(Yes I know there was some details about alternative ways to implement a margin, but they were crap and lacked any detail, since the article was essentially a rant piece rather than technical document)

Ultimately this is a parenting failure, and the 20k is the consequence of that failure.

Ask HN: How to build a light weight personal blog?
I've been running my personal blog for a while using WordPress, but I find it too buggy and loads slow.

I was thinking of redesigning and redeveloping my blog into a light static website. What are some alternatives to Wordpress that are fast and small? I don't really need a CMS as I write all my blog posts in markdown. I'm currently thinking of using Hugo or use some framework like Skeleton. Any other suggestions?

>Twitter is hot takes and outrage sprinkled with a little positivity now and then, but it's a tap into the most irrational and rapid fire mode of conversation. It's not reflecting real, considered opinions. Basing legislative or political opinions on Twitter trends is bonkers.

Exactly, trying to use Twitter as a cross-section of the public is absolute insanity. Twitter isn't a good place for nuanced opinion at all, in fact the very nature of microblogging means it's the exact opposite of nuance. Twitter is great if you want to promote the kind of black-and-white thinking of the witch hunter or the Puritan moraliser and it's pretty much useless for anything else. Twitter is a net negative for society in my opinion, as a platform it actively makes the world a worse place to inhabit through its harmful influence on politics and journalism.

It's not a matter of liking the opinions on Twitter, it's how the platform delivers those opinions. There's very little worth saying on any of the issues of the day that can be compressed into 280 characters. This causes all kinds of problems from the trivial (people spelling like literal children) to the really worrying (the fast-paced nature of such a platform has awful consequences for journalism).

Erik Hoel raised a really similar point in his substack - that the vast majority of literary fiction writers now study it, as opposed to no education or diverse education. They have spent a lot of time in workshops and create writing classes, and are thus experts in "minimizing attack vectors" in their writing.

This, of course, results in boring and uniform writing.

Quanta is one of the most consistently high quality publications operating today, for my money. Their Joy of X podcast with Steven Strogatz is highly recommended for anyone interested in math.
When I hear "priced at a fraction of", I would assume the fraction to be well under a half.

Here, it's used for a fraction of 5800/7890 ~ 73.5%, which I find rather misleading.

It would be more accurate to say it costs a fraction less than x86.
Gaps can appear if there are (1) missing data or (2) a big change such as a transposition or elision event. Neither are the case for our coronavirus data. For (1) we have a good random sampling of the population as a whole so it is exceedingly unlikely we would not see intermediate changes and for (2) the overall structure has not changed dramatically--we are looking at the accumulation of point mutations over the course of 18 months. So while gaps can and do occur, we would not expect this to occur naturally in the situation we are observing today with coronavirus.
Morale also suffered because of the push to implement Scaled Agile (SAFe) in the software teams.
Using the character’s name is not simply remaking The Hound of the Baskervilles over and over. The recent TV series is both set in the modern day and has 154 episodes, that’s mostly reskinning a detective show not copying decades old scripts.

I don’t mind the idea of The Hulk fighting Godzilla or whatever, I get annoyed when the major blockbusters are rehashing old scripts.

The "block context" for which setting margins is a good layout abstraction is not the technical "block", "inline-block" etc. of CSS, but the general situation of measuring the empty space between homogeneous rectangular blocks.

If you want to place a slider between two text paragraphs, the slider isn't a good match for them (even if rectangular, it's far smaller) and you'll have to give it small or even negative margins under the assumption of the text paragraphs having normal, big enough margins.

And this highlights the issue with the idea that "children would expose their preferred margins, which these layout contexts could take or not take into account": a reusable and modular layout should be bottom-up, with components knowing what CSS rules make them look good and containers respecting them. Since the slider is small it can have smaller margins than the text paragraphs, but a container that knows that its middle child is a slider is a complicated and ad-hoc container.

I’m Korean and the answer is a bit complicated.

Historically, women definitely were not given respect. My mother was had to fight to go to a university while taking care of all the younger siblings. She was not given any support while her brothers were given everything.

My aunt lived her entire life in servitude for her in-laws family. I remember that my grandfather got angry at her because she wanted to take THREE days off to go travel.

Stories like these aren’t uncommon for older women in Korea. This is depicted In short stories written by Han Kang where women become ‘plants’, a decor in one’s home, stripped of their personalities.

Thankfully, women’s rights have come a long way now. Most girls will be able to go to university if they want to and pursue a professional career without much judgment. That being said, Korea is still behind in many aspects of gender equality, compared to places like NZ.

It’s not all roses either. Very fast changes in society is resulting in conflicts. Gender conflict in Korea is at all times high now. To give an example, 20s men are more likely to be right wing as left wing parties in Korea usually includes women’s right activists.
It’s like the Prohibition era. The Netherlands have always tried to control fireworks much more rigidly than the surrounding countries, and now have prohibited fireworks completely under the guise of COVID.

There is still a big market for it though. The obvious and predictable result is that the stockpiles don’t end up in a bunker but in peoples homes and consist of ever stronger and more dangerous items.
For stand-alone components? Sure, that's good practice. But if you have a `section` with a `h3` inside of it, there's nothing wrong with using `margin-bottom: 1rem;` for that `h3` element. It's the best practice because it leads to less confusion that way.
> Old X window systems: bump the mouse and your focus is gone, it is basically a UI system you need to use from the command line.

Haha. Here you got me. In X windows "focus follow mouse" is consistent at least in normal WMs. You should see Windows 10 for a disaster implementation (keyboard focus in one window and mouse focus in another).
Well, to me American movie industry is dead. I can't name any good movie after 2010. It's extremely primitive now: no dialogs, just violence, giant explosions, and/or "diversity" that usually is extremely weird because it is unnatural and feels too forced.

E.g. I went to see the last Bond movie and slept the good portion of it. I never actually liked Bond movies, they're too shallow, but the last one was both shallow and dull.

I didn't spend my money to see the remake of Matrix - first comments from friends acknowledged what I suspected: it is a half-baked attempt to squeeze more money from the famous name without trying to make it interesting: why bother, when most of the audience will pay for the ticket anyway just because of the name.

In a small nation with limited cultural outreach, the only way to make a return on the investment is to target the largest demographic group - 50-70 year olds, high-school educated - with low-brow, casual, anodyne content. Trying to fill any other niche is a commercial suicide. If you're not a part of that demographic group - tough luck, there's nothing on the domestic market for you. To make matters worse, the talent pool is really shallow, leading to the same clique of ~20 actors in literally every single film or TV show
I think it's because of the weird eyes and deep voice. Honestly. There is something deeply unsettling about her. If she didn't do the wide eye and deep voice thing she'd be very attractive and people would think differently. They'd probably defend her saying she was manipulated and trusted the wrong people etc.
