Do you make regular use of the "Not Interested" button when new recommendations are shown? That might be why.

I do this, and if the recommended video has even a hint of "Youtube optimization", e.g. yelling face or all-caps clickbaity title, I click "Do not Recommend Channel".

The problem is that YT then starts recommending an endless number of clips from stuff I haven't explicitly blocked (say Simpsons or 30 Rock clips). And eventually that starts getting annoying too, so I end up hitting "not interested".

The cycle starts all over again when I manually search for a clip from one of those shows.
It's difficult to have an actual discussion when the same old platitudes keep reappearing in every crypto discussion.

I can rephrase as a question: Should we stop using groundbreaking and individual-empowering technologies just because some criminals benefit? Every single technology is exploted by criminals. I fail to see how that is an argument for its disavowal. If anything, we need to normalise privacy and encryption among virtuous everyday individuals.
This is an even more interesting question on a broader definition - OP and a lot of the answers refer to math, which is understandable given most of our backgrounds, but I've always wondered what about complex, inter-domain problem solving?

How do we map programming to understanding genetic codes?

How do we map psychological research or zoological data to operations research?
It’s annoying that MS will probably pull the same crap they did when they purchased Bethesda a couple of years ago: we won’t see releases of most Activision/Blizzard games on Sony consoles going forward.

This exclusivity game has to stop. I understand MS’s motivations — they want people to buy their console, after all. But it’s awful that you can make an educated console decision, and then two years later have a good chunk of games stolen from you because of a merger.

I concur that I’d really like to see Linux take the PC gaming space over. Personally I feel that we should focus on indie games and low-level platform compatibilty — if enough users switch to Linux, AAA studios will have to follow. Except the MS-owned studios who have a standing order to ignore Linux, of course…
This is an interesting use of the Matrix protocol. I like the many creative ways Matrix is being used outside the chat space, where its predominant use lies. However, I have several questions about this approach.

- What happens with E2EE when there are key exchange problems? (i.e. a server goes down and the account is moved)

- What happens when someone redacts a message? I assume you'd want to disable redactions for these rooms or you'll end up with broken update trees!

- How do you communicate clearly that any data you add is in the event chain forever? In Word and GDocs you can remove old revisions of a document, but I don't think you can in this system? That could be a feature, of course!

- What's the performance impact of such a system on a server editing reasonably large documents? If twenty people each edit ten to twenty documents you end up with quite a large set of state, especially over time!
Not just "like" - they are a completely different company.

It's well known that in the wake of the huge success of WoW they had to completely re-organize the company in order to be able to properly support a game with an active audience of that size. Their size, their structure, their culture, everything changed.
I usually case the joint of a service before signing up. So the service has to have screenshots, testimonials, and a thriving community before I consider hitting 'register'. I often have a gut instinct cultivated by years of signing up for random services, that I listen to before hitting 'register' too.

It could be something simple that turns me off like a broken link in the footer, and other red flags like not having the full legal address of the business in the 'about' section.

Sounds lovely for the suits.

As a longtime Blizzard fan and a former Microsoft employee, maybe I'm just getting too old for this shit, but there's really only one thing I care about:

Will they finally start getting the fucking games right again?
The thing I never understand is that anyone can make an e2e chat app in an hour. It can exchange files in an afternoon.

It’s like banning hand signals. How do you ban a way of communicating that anyone can do for free?
Living in a true hot n cold New England USA makes me jealous that anyone would consider this extreme. It's sweater n t-shirt weather. I consider hot n cold being 100F in the summer and 0F in the winter.

Thing to not is that both examples wouldn't have been possible or where they are today without notable government projects/tax credits/etc.

With TSMC i think we'll see government churning up the market the moment the US expects it to be at risk from China or the like.
That reads like a bunch of equivalents to TCP ACK. Marvelous!

In political debate on TV here in NL, I noticed nodding is often used to indicate a listener is listening. It doesn't mean they agree. Its essentially a way to shut/calm down the active talker, akin to 'yeah yeah, get on with it, let me reply...'

What happens when Activision decides its no longer worth keeping the server up? Or some other problem occurs keeping it from checking in, e.g. death of Nintendo Switch Online.

I can still play Gameboy games I bought 20+ years ago with no problems besides maybe replacing the save battery and the occasional contact clean. Will I be able to do the same with Switch games I bought? For some titles that already seems to be a no.

These 2 predicates are totally different.

The predicate in the 1st statement is actually an expression "created_at + INTERVAL '90 DAY'", it's not column "created_at".

Some databases allow users to create indexes on expression. So if you want to write the 1st statement, you need an index on expression, not a normal index.
Having to archive environments and toolchains along with backups is unpleasant.

What is the plan: when decryption fails (and before you identified that it's a versioning issue with openssl, in your case) you'd reinstall an old linux to a random computer and work from there? How many config files and settings are even involved in your backup process and how can you be sure you haven't missed anything?

I hope there are dependency-free solutions for this - a winzip-encrypted .zip file that asks for a password should work everywhere even in the future?
The DB we use (SQLAnywhere) doesn't consider now() a constant either, so no indexes considered just due to that alone #thingsilearnedinproduction
The problem is OBVIOUSLY that it tethers you to servers or some such application somewhere that needs to validate your game. And it could (and will) be turned off at some point. So the game is CLEARLY not yours.

We can run games from the 90s and 2000s, because there is no need for servers.
So he has a motive, but how is he wrong? By any measure the low quality of FSD's performance is seriously dangerous. That regulators allow "beta" software like this to be used by end users on public roads is scandalous.

I know some youtube channels are basically "a week in my life" concepts. Seems to me trying to make a good video about your week, would motivate you to have an interesting week. Making the video would the reflective part.

"as many as someone will pay for" doesn't contradict "we don't have the capacity". This is a capital allocation problem and dedicating 100% of the world gdp to vaccine production will not improve our overall health and prosperity.
Sony (the studio) is an "arms dealer" and works with many different streamers. No reason they can't do the same on the gaming side and release, say, Spider-man, on Gamepass or Stadia after sales on their own consoles slow down.
Ill deal with the factually incorrect parts of your statement to start.

1. The earliest known currency was the shekel and it was more of a accounting instrument and it was used ~5000 years ago.

2. Fiat was invented in the 7th century https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_money#China

Regarding your claim that hard money is good.

We are talking about a system that completely floundered under pressure from economic expansion (hard money) vs a system that has been presiding over the largest economic booms in history and is currently adopted by every government in the world (fiat) and your argument is "well look which is older".
e-Estonia and X-Road have gotten a lot right over a long period of time, but selecting and relying on Gemalto was clearly not one of them--rolling out useless, vulnerable cards for 9 months is impressively bad execution.

In its current design and implementation, X-Road is interesting. For example, Data Embassies are a notion that I can get behind. I suppose that is why there are so many countries evaluating it.
My problem with this approach, and many of the other ones (including my own, at the moment), is that 99% of my relatives wouldn't know how to access such a system in case of death or emergency. This is why the trustee for post-life access to my info is actually a friend who works in IT like me; but I've not sorted out pics yet.
The paywall can be bypassed by just going to the library or enrollment in a single class. You could probably even buy/rent a students account and use that for remote login.

The latter though you really have to figure out if that’s worth doing unpaid labor for. Seems like you could leverage your existing industry position to network with professors better then you could as a phd student. You could reach out to professors of interest and offer to mentor their phd student in the ways of industry or help them find jobs and use that as leverage to get access to folks you are interested in
No, in most of physics there is no such limit in practice. The only difference between my published work and the preprint arxiv versions is the font and whether the layout is two columns or one column. They are word-for-word identical with identical figures.
There was a PBS Space Time episode about a year ago that covered what I think is the same recent Penrose idea that you have mentioned [1].

All computers in the house backup regularly with borgbackup on a small servers (a 2010 Macbook with an attached USB drive). This is done by hand, but there is a script that periodically checks that no backup is falling behind.

Then I have a custom script that encrypts and replicates all the borgbackup repositories on Google Drive (where I have unlimited space because my previous university still hasn't deleted my account).

Ideally I would also replicate everything on a drive at some relative's house, but I haven't had time to set up this yet.

Overall I am rather pleased with this setup. This is for general backup of everything. Specifically for photos, I have a script on both my and my wife's Android phone that copies all photos and videos to a shared directory on the MacBook, and she periodically organizes all the photos there. Then they fall in the main backup.
The post mentions from_chars specifically, and the quote about the range is about that function. That means we need to ask the question whether NaN is "in the range representable by the type of value" too. For most other functions I would agree with you as NaN would be called out as a special case, and we have a meaningful range for all non-NaN values, but for from_chars I do not think "semantically important ranges" gets us there.
I would imagine that these AI fighter pilots may still need a human being so that they don't shoot done civilian planes or something. How good are state of the art drones at flying in inclement weather with poor communication to home base?
> is there any way to guarantee these heirlooms remain intact and available

Are they actually heirlooms? If the goal is to keep these safe so generations can continue to not look at them, what's the point? If you haven't looked at something in years, odds are nobody wants to look at them.
Yes that's what I was saying I fully agree other tech has had way more impact on the unbanked. :)
I play almost exclusively Nintendo and indie games on my switch.

There is quite a Nintendo tax on indie games though.
If you need to be precise with real numbers you need to use interval arithmetics to know your uncertainty range. Or you need infinite memory.

For C++ there's a nice boost::numeric::interval library that handles it.

Until GamePass is on Playstation, putting Microsoft games on Playstation doesn't drive subscription revenue. We already see future Bethesda titles being withdrawn from PS5, I don't see why this would be different.
How does the exclusive game work now? It's okay to have exclusives to compete with the big boys but surely the rules are different once you get to this scale. When you get close to a monopolistic position using exclusives to lock out competitors is abusive. Though MS is still not quite in a monopolistic position yet... they're getting close.
After the initial promo Game Pass price (and using the Xbox Gold -> Game Pass "hack") I got my first bill for $45 for the quarter. I started to go cancel it as I play my xbox in fits and spurts but I've got to say $15/mo for the massive catalogue available (and this was before Bethesda or today's news obviously) is a really good deal for me. I easily get at least 1 game a quarter of play out of it and that would normally cost $60 and require a lot of though/research before purchasing, instead I can try games with reckless abandon and only play the ones I like. That said, I couldn't care less about cloud gaming, the controls feel "soft" and/or laggy to me still (I'm on fiber symmetrical and I've tried on Mac, Xbox One/Series X, iPhone, and iPad, all with an official Xbox controller and wired for all but the iPhone/iPad).

You're right, I said that from memory and mixed up BSD license with MIT license. The point still stands though.
Seems somewhat imaginable, since they'll try to do that with Windows and Xbox obviously. At some point with enough games to support that, PlayStation owners will feel left out and Sony might follow. Who knows...
Those are very much a commodity.
I'm the same - although I've had many experiences in the past where I avoided the time-saving tools because they were too complex in the moment and then kicked myself later on when I realized just how much time I had been wasting by avoiding spending ten minutes learning the time saving tools, every time I try to do a git merge "the right way", I end up with conflicts that shouldn't be conflicts and changes that I didn't want to pull in that I have to manually undo until I just give up and "manually" merge.
Most college students hate both parties, just like they always have
I've had fairly good experiences running Blizzard games under wine over the years. Diablo 3, StarCraft Remastered, and a few others tend to work pretty much perfectly. Based on the versions of Visual Studio and stuff that get pulled in when installing them, I have to wonder if the secret to making a game run well on Wine is just to stick with older versions of the Window-specific libraries rather than the cutting edge.
Thanks for sharing this. Diablo 2 was an amazing experience back in my youth. I was decided to make the purchase. But this is a no deal.
Part of me wants to like Astral Codex (Bayes theorem is dear to my heart and my head) but I find it too rambling and too tied to the cringeworthy "rationalist" scene. (e.g. some of those people think the 'woke' folks are groupthinkers, but some of their circles would drive people out if they expressed disbelief in quasireligious concepts such as superhuman a.i., cryonics, etc.)

For people who want to understand "how to successfully promote a blog" my favorite is

which I think is captivating to people even if favors nostalgia vs timeliness (never news) and few people would find it useful (for my electronics hobby I expect to build increasing powerful illusion projectors and I find some of his talk on electronics inspirational and educational but I never expect to decap a chip or make discrete versions of things like current mirrors and op amps that are impractical to make on an artisan scale.)
If you're ok with putting something in your body that has a "reasonable chance" of not harming you, why not just make it the actual virus?
If your contention is that feudalism is an inaccurate lense through which to view medieval Europe, then okay.

But the taxing and redirection of excess economic output, accomplished through ownership and lending of land, leading to an underperforming history of innovation, seems borne out by the history of Europe, regardless of the intricacies or framework through which it's viewed.

And that seems pretty on point for exactly what everyone is decrying with regards to consolidation into conglomerates in the tech sector.

This sort of use case makes sense to make a copy of the .git folder. When you are trying to rewrite the history of a whole Git repo, throwing away the repo and starting for a backup is often easier than trying to unwind changes.

Though in this specific case of rewriting emails, there is a way in git to do it without rewriting history:

I've enjoyed learning, inspired by DeviantOllam and LPL. The clear practice locks are amazing for getting you used to the process. I haven't managed to pick anything that isn't see-through yet, but I enjoy trying.

The highlight of my "career" though was when an escape room we played had an optional lockpicking challenge. It turned out to just be a clear practice lock which I got through it with no trouble, and then proceeded to pick a pair of handcuffs that apparently I wasn't supposed to pick. I had never tried before, but it really was as easy as it looks on TV. (they gave me a lockpick but apparently I'm not supposed to use it? there was an actual handcuff key inside one of the other locked boxes)

> Microsoft’s gaming division

Isn’t that the point? Why can something as large as MS have a “division” that can go into mergers and acquisitions as if they were a separate entity?

> There are stills lots of other large publishers

…goes on to name 5.

> They are definitely not “buying all their competit

Sure, you can be as pedantic as you want and jump through hoops to come to that rationalization.
Old Blizzard is dead and has been for almost a decade--the name's the same but their job now is not to make great games that push the envelope in game design but rather to manage cash-printing franchises. It's hard not to think this when so many of the people behind the original groundbreaking games (StarCraft, WC3, D2) have left the company and in some cases disavowed it.

Be happy that old Blizzard happened, I say, and look on with eagerness to new indie studios, many of which are being run by the same Blizzard vets.

Since I am also an avid DSLR photographer, the first decision I made was to use Adobe Lightroom (Classic) as the "single source of truth" to manage all our photos.

This means obviously importing all photos taken via my DSLR into Lightroom, but also syncing all photos taken on our iPhones via the Lightroom Mobile App.

Lightroom Classic keeps all the (compressed) photos in the Adobe cloud for easy sharing and browsing, but also writes them out (unaltered) to a directory on my Local NAS.

This NAS gets automatically backed up via Arq Backup (https://www.arqbackup.com) to an encrypted Amazon S3 bucket. Additionally, once or twice a year I create a versioned copy of the NAS via Carbon Copy Cloner (https://bombich.com/) to an external hard drive. This hard drive is stored offsite somewhere safe.

In a nutshell, for around $12 a month + a NAS + a hard drive, we have all the convenience of the Adobe Lightroom cloud combined with a local copy on the NAS, a cloud copy on S3 (in case Lightroom cloud gets corrupted) and an offsite copy (in case our place and the whole internet burns down :-)).

Yeah but its not measuring the quality of the air. Houses are just passive particulate collecting devices, ie particulates travelling on the air outside, move into the house, meet a stationary or slower moving body of air, lose momentum and velocity and thus succumbs to the effects of gravity and hits a surface.

Considering woman have traditionally been the one's cleaning the house for the living abode for hundreds of years, why havent they come up with something better to filter the air inside a property seeing as there is this push to get females into STEM?

> other companies are going to find it very hard to compete with Game Pass

I haven't really ever used it. I used to buy everything Blizzard made (OK that's an exaggeration, but I was all about WarCraft/StarCraft/Diablo...). Before Steam, I bought lots of games on disk. Now I buy most things on Steam. And I haven't bought anything Blizzard since Diablo III.

Why wouldn't Steam continue to be competitive against Game Pass?

(I'm just one person, but among the people I know that play PC games, I don't hear about Game Pass much. One person mentioned he's on a 14 day $1 trial - that was the extent of it.)
