> It's because it chips away at people's egos.

I mean, I'm not going to dispute there's a massive amount of luck that goes into almost everyone's success, but I also think in many (probably even the vast majority) of cases, luck is just going to give you the opportunity, and drive and keeping on track as much as you can is what lets you take advantage of those opportunities.

The difference between the advantaged and disadvantaged is how many times those opportunities knock (or if you're really advantaged, kicks your door down and basically carries you).

Many people that have succeeded have a hard time accepting that it might not have been all their own drive and ambition and actions that account for where they ended up, because to be consistent with their view of themselves that might lead them to give some of their good fortune to others, and there's a lot of mental biases to prevent people from accepting that.

At the same time, many people that aren't succeeding have a hard time accepting that perhaps their own actions have played a large role in why some past opportunities never panned out. In the end, for your personal growth it's best to focus on what you can affect, which is not your birth circumstances and how that might affect you negatively (not to ignore it, but don't let it prevent forward movement). For society, we should look at both.
Intel blew EUV, which fair enough, it’s hard as hell. Are there other problems, sure, but when you go from leading-edge process technology to a two node lag, you’re fucked either way.

This article is rambling and over-complicated.

For a much more insightful and compelling view into Intel at its greatest I recommend “The Pentium Chronicles”.
Perhaps, but I still prefer to develop with Safari then test with FF/Chrome. I'll admit that I'm not necessarily doing cutting-edge JS stuff, but the Safari tools are good enough for my needs.
First, even constrained choices can be meaningful. Just because I can't choose to fly by flapping my arms, wouldn't mean I don't have free will. If free will exists, I can still choose among the options available to me. I don't think anyone operates by the definition of "free will" that you seem to be proposing. Free will is the ability to select from among the options you are given. The opposite of that would be that you'd always make the same pick every time, because your decisions are actually the results of forces acting upon you. If you had the choice between red, green, and blue; you'd choose red every time if we could rerun your life up to that moment in time.

Which is what makes the question kind of unknowable. Because we can't rerun our lives to see if we could make different decisions with all of the exact same conditions as before. Even running the choice twice isn't the same. Because the second time you do it, you're now a person who has previously made this choice. And that makes the scenario different, because you are different. We have no real way of testing free will.

But better still: the question does not matter at all.

Either free will exists or it doesn't. There's no spectrum of "50% will" or whatever. You can either make choices or you're essentially the result of all the forces acting upon you.

So, what are the consequences of both scenarios?

If free will exists, then fine, we can make choices. We can choose to do whatever. There's nothing really interesting to be said about this branch.

However. If free will does not exist, then there's something weird going on. Because if free will does not exist, I don't have any choice in whether or not to post this message. I post this message because your post elicits that response in me. Just like you made your post for the same reason. And we just keep pulling this thread all the way back to the big bang.

But we also don't have the choice in how we feel about this discussion either. You will either accept this or not based on the various physical, biological, and chemical processes going on inside of and around you. So you will either agree or disagree and that decision itself is preordained. Regardless if it is true or not. You're either the type to believe in free will or not and you can't choose that. Because if you could choose that, you'd have free will.

Even if you believe you are making a change, you're not. Because you were going to make that change due to the forces at work on you. Forces that were eventually going to interact with you because those forces themselves are the products of other forces, etc. So if you hear all this, take it to heart, and decide to live a life of apathy because you have no free will and nothing matters. Then that's what was going to happen at this point and time regardless.
>There's a large crowd of people who'd rather buy to own games even if they're on Game Pass

Judging by the reactions I've seen to this acquisition around the internet, this crowd is really not that large.

The average consumer of today does not care in the slightest about owning things, they only care about being able to enjoy whatever the current flavor of the week AAA tripe is for now before the next flavor of the week comes along to replace it. When they're done with a game, they don't care about having it anymore.

This isn’t Intel’s shareholders’ problem. Split the businesses. If the U.S. wants to bail out Intel’s fabs, let them. (Though a better strategy would be a general subsidy for anyone building fabs in America, which should be a thing.)

Depends a lot on what the interviewer actually asked and how they directed the conversation, and also on how the candidate responds. If the interviewer is badgering the candidate to try to force a “damning” response, yeah, that interviewer sucks and is engaged in inappropriate behavior. But if the candidate jumps to tell you he likes to play half-naked characters, that’s also a red flag.

If an interviewer specifically asks if you only play female characters and why, that’s pretty weird. If your response is something like “because I like their jiggly titties” instead of something like “because I find them attractive”, well, that’s even weirder and frankly not work appropriate.

But yeah, if the interviewer is pushing you to discuss your favorite characters, you shouldn’t feel the need to hide the fact that you play female characters. That’s your preference so whatever. That’s different from making it overtly sexual.
I'm fairly wary of this sort of analysis, seems very woo-y.

The UK-issue lateral flow tests have always said to swab the throat (specifically the tonsils) and then both nostrils at about 2.5cm depth.

Every time you sniff, you get nose mucous in your throat (what with them being connected and all), and when you sneeze quite a bit of throat mucous will is drawn up along with air. And now remember that your intestines are physically connected to your mouth by only a foot or two of squishy pipe and you'll be wishing for a nice clean robot body.
The autism spectrum may have originally been construed as one dimensional, from minor to profound autism. However, I would say now that 'spectrum' is predominately understood in the autism research community as meaning "diverse." Diverse presentations, diverse symptoms, diverse co-occurring symptoms, diverse lived experiences, diverse outcomes, a la if you've met one person with autism, you've met one person with autism.

The Autism Phenome Project is predicated on the idea that there may be some underlying homogeneity so that we might identify clinically meaningful subgroups within the autism "spectrum"/"diversity", which may help us develop better targeted interventions, support services, etc.

Great question.
Sounds like just using CTEs. This is how I write some complicated queries, as a few CTEs with specific logic to get an overall query written in a more readable way.

These are my own metrics, which are most important to me. However I believe they are mostly representative of the UK consumer e-commerce market.

Obviously if I was building something like an enterprise/business SASS web app that was mostly used on desktop it would be a different story and Chrome would probably dominate.

My point is people regularly forget about Apple WebKit (due to iOS) in these sorts of discussions.

When it comes to deciding how to test your site and choosing which to use as your "primary" browser while developing, I beleve you should use the one the majority of your customers are using. For us (and allot of people) that's Safari but use your own (not global average) metrics.

Probably it's an issue more with older people who remember when this kind of thing was unheard of. In the modern day people are online all the time anyways, it doesn't make a big practical difference, which makes the ethical issues seem overblown.

Samsung Laptop and PC will then have the advantage of lower BOM Cost, depending on how they do the accounting.

The X-2 running at 3Ghz is only about 1100 in GB5, I expect this could be pushed to 3.6Ghz and get a 20% increase, which is still only 1320. The A14 used in M1 is ~1600 and A15 possibly in the M2 is ~1750. That is a 30% performance gap. Although I suspect the X-2 will be running at lower wattage, so the perf / watt isn't that far off. And Samsung gets the benefits of using AMD GPU, which is interesting because Dr Lisa Su said those technology would not be used in PC industry competing directly against them.
This is such a dumb saying. People who got into (say) a car crash and lost control of all their limbs surely did not get any stronger. Neither did the army veterans who spend the rest of their days traumatized after seeing their entire squad blown up.

The wise man builds his house upon the rock. The foolish man builds his house upon the sand. I will 100% blame the platform when what it provides is deficient, for selecting a deficient platform is one of the gravest mistakes a developer can make.

And Postgres, again, is materially deficient in its query performance predictability, and its developers are insistent that they have no desire to allow the approaches that would mitigate it. If this matters to your application, then the prudent developer will drop Postgres and use a real database.
Nor do I, but I think non-VR gaming is going to be bigger than VR gaming for a long time, maybe forever.

> their fab business doesn't have any long term future

It has a fine future, just not in a 60%+ margin business. Intel should bite the bullet and spin out its fabs. Let it compete and grow as a separate company from Intel’s design units. Stratchery is spot on, as he’s been about Intel from day one.
My current employer actually mobilizes phlebotomists to come to your home/office for what you need (like Uber for diagnostic testing...including covid tests)...of course for zip codes that are currently covered: https://covidtesting.scarlethealth.com/scarlet/ccrz__CCPage?...

To clarify, it is not my intent to advertise for my current day-job/employer...but they do actually provide what OP asked for. Good luck!

EDIT: @0xbadcafebee Sorry, I should have also added that the Scarlet service and associated tests are (likely) *NOT* free...so either you would have to pay out of pocket, or have health care (hope) to cover cost.
> Remember that, for example, the DNC's support for marriage equality started with Biden's gaffe as VP.

That's a good example of why people who think the Democratic Party is a vehicle for progressivism are wrong. In 2008, Black people--without whom Democrats would not be a viable national party--said homosexuality was morally unacceptable by more than 2:1: https://news.gallup.com/poll/112807/blacks-conservative-repu.... They were as conservative on that issue as Republicans. (Even as of 2019, 45% of Black Democrats think legalizing same-sex marriage was a bad thing, compared to just 11% of white Democrats. That puts them closer to Republicans (57%) than to the white members of their party. Hispanic Democrats are also twice as likely as white Democrats to say it was a bad thing, while Hispanics overall are three times as likely. See: https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2019/12/17/5-gender-fam...)

The Democratic Party is a coalition of white social liberals, who are either moderate or progressive economically, along with people of color who vary significantly in political ideology. A significant chunk of the voters who put the party over the top in places like Georgia and Arizona are the old Reagan coalition: upwardly mobile suburbanites of all races.

You either find out the candidate knows how GPS works or you find out the candidate's willingness to say "I don't know".

It's valuable to know how someone will handle a question they don't know the answer to -- whether they recognize their own ignorance and whether they are willing to admit to it.

Ninja just recently [0] talked about why he thinks Mixer failed and it was not due to its potential.

He specifically mentioned stuff like: needing a hotmail account to register, when you register you had some random name assigned to you and had to go into your profile to change it afterwards, etc. Small stuff basically, but it added up and Microsofts corporate structure prohibited quick adjustments.

And it's not even really a conservative view to say that. Even the most liberal of politicians would acknowledge that laws governing certain areas don't make sense everywhere, and there's a reason for keeping states, given the gigantic size of our country.

This comes up all the time in redistricting conversations; very often the goal for some of the strangers gerrymandered districts is to keep populations together.

People should have a say in how their day-to-day lives are governed, and not just be ruled by a huge cluster of people on a completely different part of the planet.
Many retired, and are unlikely to come back for any kind of raise. Others have had children. And pay has risen steadily. It doesn't seem very obvious to me why you think people were happy to work for $15/hr in 2019 but would rather earn nothing than $18/hr today.

I found it odd that the drawing were confusing until I added my own personal imaginary time component.

Spacial memory include how I "feel" about something as much as the logic of what it is. When I misplace something I "feel" like I put that object (keys, book, etc...) in some place, despite it not being there.

So, like the idea of "I remember putting my keys here", there is a timeline.

The images of the boxes "main" and "counter" with all the lines was confusing, but if I had drawn them myself, I would have tiny timeline/memory of each line movement from one to another. Just the same as I recall (vaguely sometimes) why I wrote a piece of code or structured my files some way.

So, to change the thought from "what a mess of lines between the boxes" to "these lines really mean something to me", I would either have to have drawn them myself, or have some time component (ie, lines drawn during actual demo of code being run) to represent "how I visualize" the actual logic/code/system.

More seriously, how should the people of any country attempt to stop such shenanigans, short of a full blown revolution and civil war? Our elected officials, legislators, and judges seem to serve our incumbent masters, not the people.

Personally, I have lost any hope of a peaceful resolution to the growing threat of global tyranny, but I continue to hope we can find viable solutions that might avoid the resulting transitional anarchy.
Thank you, I think I was thrown off by the whole “mom-and-pop” debate and your comment makes much more sense.

I don't think we'll see a bunch of equivalent game passes like we see in video streaming, mostly because Microsoft can act as a de facto gatekeeper for what "passes" can be used, and they'd realistically limit it to only theirs, at least on Xbox.

On PC something similar may arise, but there would be much more competition and PC gamers may be more reluctant to use these services because there are more options when choosing where and how to buy/download/play games on PC.

> You may not like what your system of government produces as its outcomes, but it's exactly what it should be producing; a reflection of what its people want.

This is absolutely untrue, because representation is intentionally not proportional to population. Our electoral system produces a reflection of what some people want, and those people are typically from smaller, more conservative, less populated, less economically viable areas.

Because of this, US policy does not reflect the will of the majority on most major issues.

Most people support taxing the ultra-wealthy at a higher percentage of their income, but this is not US policy.

Most people support background checks on all firearms sales, but this is not US policy.

Most voters support campaign finance reform, but this is not US policy.

Most voters support a ban on Representatives actively trading stocks, but this is not US policy.

More than half of voters support at least some form of student loan forgiveness, but this is not US policy.

You can basically walk the link of current important issues, and find that the will of the people is not represented at the Federal level. I don't like what our system of government produces, not because it goes against what I want, but because it goes against what most people want. It is a majority held hostage by the tyranny of a minority, and that is becoming less and less tenable as time goes on.
I don’t visualize code, I feel it, underneath my finger tips. I’m what they call a vimmer. Right now, when I think of a location in a code base where I want to go, I can feel the nerves in my hand anticipating the movements and keystrokes I’ll need to execute in order to get there, and the subsequent commands needed to make the edits I want. There’s little reason to look at the screen if all these moves are done perfectly, the screen is only there to provide context. The physical structure and layout of a project is irrelevant when you have powerful tools. It might as well be a flat file in my mind. All that matters is the anchor points. The words to search for, the phrases to find. This is the highest level of coding.
This isn`t at all countering evolution. It is changing the fitness pressure. being able to parent effectively with smart phones and sedentary jobs and needing a lot of education is more fit than not having metabolic disorders or a weak immune system.

If anything our tendency to not have reproductively isolated subgroups and large population is making speciation less likely. But rest assured our genome is slowly changing as we change our fitness landscape.
