> NATO may decided to supply just enough to bog down Russia but not hand Ukraine a rapid victory.

If you read a bit more of ACOUP, it's clear that the only path to a "rapid victory" is a set battle against the Russian armed forces, resulting in a decisive defeat for Russia. Even with copious supplies from the west, Ukraine simply couldn't do that. Even if NATO decided to pile in with divisions and air-cover, a rapid victory seems unlikely.
José Manuel Albares, Spain’s foreign minister, said Nato 'will discuss' a possible intervention in Ukraine, including a potential no-fly zone.

The upside is there's no reason to start writing a will - there'll be nothing to bequeathe and nobody to bequeathe to. Thanks for all the fish.

UPDATE: Stoltenberg denies plans to impose an NFZ. With all the activity of top brass along Polish-Ukrainian border, though, some sort of intervention may well be in the works. 's a fine line here, and an easy one to cross - with no way of going back.
100% of everything destroyed is only ruski fault.
Let me be devil's advocate here. I understand there are many negative feelings not just towards Putin but also, unfortunately, to Russians as people - in spite of the fact that they long lost any ability to influence the events at the top. However, the international community should go in exactly the opposite direction.

Russia will be there after Putin. They have a very rich culture with excellent poets, some of the best mathematicians in the world etc. All this is trod upon by a merciless clique - and even though they have managed to brainwash a part of the population, and even though the sanctions we impose hurt ordinary citizens, it is crucial not to forget it is not and it will never be a war against Russian people. Otherwise we risk becoming just like those beasts we're fighting against.

(This is only tangential to the topic - Slovio is a good idea but, just like all artificial languages, will have problems becoming more popular.)
> Most of the time you can’t even if you want to because someone will merge in front of you with that much space.

This annoys me so much. It creates a game theory situation where everybody has to drive like an asshole in order to avoid being cut off by assholes.
They actually have already - PyTorch works straight up with ROCm, and so does Tensorflow. There is a little faffing to do to get it to work but they've made great progress in the last six months.
Comparing this to some of the other comments, I'm jumping to a conclusion here, and doing so to see if you agree with this thinking -

It sounds like your success can be attributed to, at least in significant part, having a strong/sticky "base" BEFORE the pandemic started.

Would you agree/disagree that? More applicably to guiding the OP here, would you say that if you guys DIDN'T have that sticky base of attendees that you'd be as well-off or even around at all post-pandemic?

In other words, was it just popularity that got ya'll through (obviously you and yours did all the work, not saying otherwise!), or can you point to something else that the OP can replicate?

Again, not at all to "throw shade" at you here, just trying to see if your outcome is a reasonable expectation, and how applicable/likely it is for the OP, especially given the wide disparity in outcomes mentioned by others. Either way I'm happy to hear your meetup is doing well!
A Germanicized English would probably work well enough given that English has such a pidgin-like grammar anyway. You wouldn't have to deal with the whole part of simplifying the language, there's already a widely used standard for that.
These changes look really nice! Out of interest does anyone know what the most common use cases for canvas are? The article says "30-40% of web pages have a <canvas> element" which is way higher than I'd guess. Is it used by ad networks or something like that that could increase the percentage a lot?
Think about what happens when you get older and those job offers are harder to get, or you have a family you’d like to spend time with, or your health is a limiting factor, or the new owners look at the payroll and decide your job could be done better by their buddy’s company in Romania. The time to invest in a union is before you need it.

Got a Steam Deck (not only a flex, it is to give context to my answers)

- I do wish I could take of the sides and plop the screen down like a Switch, mostly because it is cool. And it is less of a complete package without a dock, but if you don't want to play docked at least you aren't paying for e-waste.

- The Steam Deck is an enthusiasts device, I think the price is great for the hardware. And if graphics doesn't matter then with this enthusiast device you can lower the graphics and get comparable to switch battery life, or tune it to be better.

- The only hardware this applies to is the Steam machine, everything else is still supported, literally all of it is still supported with updates.

- With the steam deck verified system, they make you well aware when you are about to play a unsupported/unchecked title, if you stick to "verified" and "playable" then you'll have a console experience, one with more optional knobs to play with. Also installing windows on this thing would ruin so much of it.

- They have no marketing now, but after reservations are filled it does make sense to start having ads and maybe selling it in third party stores, we'll have to see.

- Emulation can only get better, it is just ARM.

A union does not necessarily play the role of migitation of negative externalities from a company's profit seeking activies. It still wants to maximum profits but with workers taking a fair share of such profits and under good work conditions.

For example, unions that represent workers in dirty industries are very often resistent to regulation of their employer's activities despite the harm it can cause to others. Coal mining, steel processing, etc...

They don't even necessarily lead to good value for money for consumers - for example they could use forms of worker accreditation to reduce the supply of workers to raise wages for existing workers and the increase the prices their employers can charge.

I'd like if there was a "mode 7" style affine transformation available, but I understand my needs are niche. Still, nice to see some of the performance improvements and that reset function.
I think you're getting emulation and piracy a little bit muddled, which to be fair is a common reaction.

An emulator is just an API-compatible device. It is legal to make and sell an emulator. It can be used for playing legit and pirated copies of games, just as the original console can. It's a healthy form of competition (like between PC manufacturers), resulting in better performing hardware for the consumer.

The comment you're replying to doesn't mention or defend piracy. They're only saying Nintendo's Switch hardware is lacking so people are searching for a better performing alternative, and Nintendo is using anti-competitive legal trickery to suppress alternatives, instead of improving their product.
Maybe I should have clarified. Engineers are difficult to manage (in my experience) because they're smart and have leverage in their role; it's not a simple manager -> worker-bee relationship. It's nothing negative.
I read similar info from a French TV, the title of the documentary reads:
`"War in Ukraine: Anne-Laure Bonnel "where I am (Donbass) the bombings are Ukrainians"`:

That's very different from what we can read from the mainstream media and social networks nowadays. Anyone who knows French can confirm that?
And who gets to decide which moment in time should be taken as reference for the "true" borders? Because borders in Europe changed so much and so many tomes over history, that pretty much everybody can make territorial claims about everybody else and not be totally wrong. I wish I was exaggerating.
Wow, what a great idea! I'm originally from Bulgaria and I've enjoyed this kind of "universal understanding" to some level with almost all nearby Slavic countries (e.g. Macedonia, Serbia, Ukraine).

I really like the approach of Slovio, it was instantly clear and understandable. I think with some practice it won't be a challenge to adopt it in writing (e.g. plurals with "-s" for some words is a bit strange at first).

it's so they can upsell FSD with the highest margin using the cheapest hardware (they're not even good cameras, 1280×960 resolution because they want to push pixels directly into their neural net, and dynamic range is poor, I will never understand how they didn't spring for infrared night vision, cadillacs had it 20 years ago)

I understand that math -in general- don't have much public appeal. But I don't think that exempts math-related articles from having titles which actually reflect their content.

"Mathematicians Make Sense of Chaos" is, in my opinion, the same as "Cancer Cured". Which cancer, at which stage, what method, on how many people, how, etc. etc. No matter how interesting the article (don't get me wrong, this IS a very interesting article) you are misdirecting the readers and that's not cool I think.

Alex apparently doesn't feel fear/anxiety in the way people with normal brains do, e.g.

"In 2016, he was subjected to functional magnetic resonance imaging scans that revealed that, unlike other high sensation seekers, his amygdala barely activates when watching disturbing images. He however confesses feeling fear occasionally. Through imagination and practice, he has desensitized himself to most fearful situations."

If someone has graduated with a software degree, or gone through a bootcamp, or worked for many years in the field, or has their own Github projects — then that person can probably code.

A) It’s demonstrably not true. Work in the industry long enough and you’ll see for yourself.

B) This ends up in an even worse place. As bad as tech hiring is, it’s far better than legal hiring (for example). There it’s a matter of what law school you went to, your class rank, and if the interviewer likes you.

I’ve seen a million articles on why tech hiring is awful but none with novel or persuasive arguments about how to make it better.
I’m guessing you can’t have a very wide section of the doc, either. Which is honestly a good thing, in my opinion.
Clickbaity title, the demand is the obvious one:

I really hope Nvidia doesn't even consider complying. Screw these people's game and their extortion.
Unfortunately, this is a statistic without context. If a random, Toyota fails on the highway and causes a fatal collision, it's unlikely to yield an article of this ilk.

So, how frequently has this type of failure occurred? How often does that type of failure result in a fatality?

The analog here is that polls suggest parents believe the probability of a child abduction is higher now than 50 years ago, though the data show the opposite. The difference? The discussion on cable news when the event occurs. Availability bias is powerful. The car industry is likely to incur the same phenomenon.
This is sad, but it's worth noting that even with a human driver, a car that stops suddenly is not responsible for any subsequent rear end collision(s). The colliding driver has the responsibility to keep a safe stopping distance at all times.
You need to have some kind of an authority to argue like this. E.g. did you do anything about it? But even then it takes a special kind of stupid to behave like this.

I can cope with it during the day by keeping my mind active along with background noises, it has really turned me into a workaholic.

I too used to listen to loud music when I was younger, I never noticed it cause issues for me at the time.
The original cause was a hit on the head by a falling metal beam - nothing noise related - this caused the occasional distortion of sound but was a minor inconvenience really, it didn't affect my sleep or day-to-day life.
After a few years of it like that, I found myself at a music festival which did make it worse. It turned into a high pitched alternating tone which is now there 100% of the time.
> How would the Western democracies respond to that? Will we see greater efforts to regulate cryptocurrencies?

Yes, especially outside of the west first. By transitioning to CBDCs just like how China has done. There are CBDC trials that use the cryptocurrency technology, even in Ukraine by Stellar Network [0] and Bhutan for XRPL [1] to power it.

Probably Russia will introduce their own digital currency that they can control.

I find this an interesting edge case in writing (mostly engineering docs and strategy for work) that maybe 1% of my audience wants to print out or save as a pdf. And it’s hard to go back and restyle a document to print after it’s written.

As a result, I write in page mode as a hedge against the people who like pages since it’s easier to write in page mode than to do the boring reformats after the writing is done.
The real kicker in OSI’s judgement of Unlicense is that it seems that the only reason they approved it is because it was written so badly that it failed in its goal of being a public domain dedication, and will probably be interpreted as a license instead. (That’s how I read their wording, which is very slightly ambiguous, but seems to be talking about the document as a whole rather than just the intended fallback license aspects.)

> He absolutely could not of stopped in time.

Somebody (not necessarily the husband) was driving too close to the car in front. You should have enough time to see the car stopping and stop yourself. A 2 second gap at 60mph is 178 feet. A second to react and that still gives you 88 feet to slow down in before you even get to the point where the Tesla started to slow, reducing the impact speed to far lower -- not enough that should kill anyone.
Once you're into a relational model you can start treating your forest of trees as a big graph if you want to (though you don't have to). And you can edit nodes individually without having to iterate the entire document.

But assuming you're trying to maintain the tree structure you still have many of the same issues. Each node will need to entail the context of its parent, which means that you'll need to know things like transitive closures in order to know if a parent node affects a child (e.g. deletion) or if a child affects a parent (e.g. re-render tree). Or if you move a node do you have to re-create pointers below it? And tracking history could get complicated because it might span both the content of the node and the tree structure metadata (e.g. can you undo a change where the text was bold and a block was moved around). Where do you put transactions?

I'm not saying this is the same as XML, just that you can't magically escape all of the downsides. It's a fun problem to solve!

I think if we compare deaths / passenger miles driven between cars and trains. Trains come out very favorably. Possibly only beaten by airplanes.

Edit: Numbers

In the US

> Over the last 10 years, passenger vehicle death rate per 100,000,000 passenger miles was over 9 times higher than for buses, 17 times higher than for passenger trains, and 1,606 times higher than for scheduled airlines

That sounded rather high for trains (dunno what the US is doing wrong), so I checked some other country.

In the UK:

> Over the last 10 years, passenger vehicle death rate per billion passenger kilometers was over 5 times higher than for buses, 1100 times higher than for scheduled airliners, and an infinity higher than for passenger trains (no deaths were reported).

Deaths/billion passenger-km
Car 1.1
Van 0.4
Water 0.4
Bus or coach 0.2
Air 0.01
Rail* 0

In general of the already almost negligible death rate, it seems that rail deaths are mostly people at rail crossings, and maintenance personnel, not passengers.
