I don’t think its just exclusivity, in the sense that “I’m one of the cool kids”. If the Clubhouse concept was based on conversations amongst a peer group then you need some exclusivity, just to have a manage the number of people in the conversation. Once anyone could join and you had more then maybe 10 people and the conversation aspect become too hard to manage and everything just basically became a podcast.
Wouldn't an open lamp severely degrade all kinds of paints and materials that aren't meant to be exposed to UV light? Or does the mechanism that supposedly makes the shorter wavelength safe for human skin cells apply to all materials?

Oh, how much Russia would love that. A smaller EU? Are you kidding? Any day of the week, twice on Sunday.
Yandex gives good results on the first page[1] with tripadvisor and other community sites. Google I think got majorly messed up when they started doing "anti-misinformation" patches that down ranked forums and other community sites where people can freely post wrongthink. Yandex doesn't do any of that.

Maybe, but the timeframe seems off. I know I played this game somewhere from 1989-1992. Hi-Octane wasn't until 1995.

Edit: I got the timeframe right but the multi-player wrong. Apparently the game I was thinking of was "Deathtrack" but I merged that with the later games that were multi-player.

GDPR should help but if the apps were hosted on a developer account registered to a business entity, the majority of data will relate to the business rather than the individual, in which case GDPR may not throw up a huge amount. I don't believe the automated decision making parts of GDPR apply to businesses either.

In the UK at least, if it wasn't a registered business (limited company) then there is no legal distinction between you and the trading name and hence all the rights under GDPR would be available to you.
I think you are severely misunderstanding capitalism. Capitalism strongly supports competition.

Definition Capitalism "an economic and political system in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state."

You may think that Microsoft is the big bad capitalist, but don't forget, in every market they operate in, they face competition. The scale they were able to achieve is not due to "fear or buy out", but rather due to network effects.

Google is strong, not because of the product, or because nobody can compete. DuckDuckGo and others are trying, but simply because the muscle memory and brand are so strong. But don't forget, there were LOTS of search engines at one point.

In capital intensive markets, you tend to have few competing companies just because of the cost to get started and operate. Look at all the airlines in the US, you may say "not everyone can start an airline", but again, that's not because of "fear or buy out", it's because the cost of getting started and then competing is so huge that you can't raise the capital to do it.

Competition is good for the consumer, but I believe (and I accept this isn't generally accepted wisdom) that it IS also good for the business. Competition can push the entire industry forward, which is more engaging for everyone involved in the business as they need to work to keep their position.

Think of it like soccer (football), if there were only one team, how interesting would the sport be, or if there were only two, or three. Does any league of sport have less than 10 teams? Probably not because at that level, the players aren't challenged the entire system goes into entropy. It isn't just that the fans lose out, the players also lose out on the opportunity to push themselves to their limit.
How I am investing in meme stocks and meme coins in 2022

Apparently there was a huge queue outside the Swatch store here in Melbourne and they sold out all of those "Omega" models in less than 7 minutes. As far as I can tell, this is just another Swatch with quartz movement. Does anyone know why this is so popular apart from the Omega branding?
Was that a complete ban, or was it an attempt to get your phone number and other personal details?

Instagram has always banned my accounts for suspicious behaviour on whatever page is first used after the account is created - the only way they offer to progress is to give them a phone number. It's a pretty transparent grab for more info to sell.
It also depends on the game. Rollback netcode is for games where your client fully simulates the game. This doesn't happen on a majority of games because of hidden information.

I don't even know if it scales beyond a fighting game, where you'll see rollback most commonly used. Part of the rollback is to go back to a saved gamestate a few seconds ago, and resimulate the entire game with the new (correct) input. Meaning to rollback 100ms, you would need to be able to resimulate that 100ms of gameplay in say 1 frame or 16ms.
> Call me an optimist, but I think the framework churn is finally moving behind us.

Such an optimist!

For real though, I've heard this for every single "paradigm change" that has happened during the last ~20 years (and I'm sure many before me has heard it for even longer). Things will continue to move in some sort of direction.

The login experience is the worst of any app I've used. Stop asking me every day to login, and god help you if you're in multiple orgs. I pretty much do the web app at this point. Thankfully my org mostly uses zoom and slack, but customers on teams refuse to experience normalcy and demand everyone experience their pain, same with webex, come on people...
Yes, in the last Olympics. The article also covers dozens of olympics prior, where the US also failed to win gold.

And even so, the point still stands. You can't call your national competitions "world" competitions as a country, and then send sub-par delegations and lose nationally at the world stage.

I don't want to give the impression I'm getting any glee from this. It's just to point out the whole thing sounds so silly to a non-American.
I always found mappers and additional hardware in cartridges fascinating. NES does not support saves? Just put a battery and additional memory in cartridge to store your data. No animations? Add more pattern tables and cycle through them during the game. An interesting way to keep your console's price low and add some extensibility at the cost of making cartridges more expensive.
Probably just because they are fucking gorgeous.
I'd guess that Google's support for their ad services are good enough? The problem here is that Play publishers are not really Google's customers.

Then just put these accounts in read only mode.

It's not like Google ever deletes the data these bad accounts made.
> Maybe your platform shouldn't allow such abuse?

Yes, perhaps we could come up with a set of rules that users must abide by to use the service, such as not being abusive. And if they're found to be breaking these rules, we could then restrict their access to the service. The worst actors would have their access restricted permanently.

If you're suggesting "stop 100% of all abusive content before it happens," that's just silly.
This describes so much of the content on the web nowadays and it’s just exhausting.

"The Art of Responsive Drawing" by Nathan Goldstein.

It's an in depth analysis of the elements of drawing and, more importantly, what those elements actually do. It really celebrates the expressive and creative aspects of drawing, in a way that's both beautiful to look at, and accessible to read.
Ones I would suggest as gateway drugs would be:

The Code Book, by Simon Singh is a very accessible history of cryptography and its role in historical events.

The Nazi Census, by Aly, Roth and Black, is an important survey of how data collection methods get used for bad things, and I recommend it to anyone doing large scale systems architecture, or working in privacy. (replace statisticians with 'epidemiologists', and you start to see a theme.)

The Mathematical Theory of Communication, by Claude Shannon is beautiful, and gives you an intuition for concepts like bandwith, signal, message entropy, finite fields, among others.

Power, by Jeffery Pfeffer, when combined with the Dictator's Handbook by Smith and DeMesquita forms the foundation for any serious management and strategy consulting.

GEB, by Hofstader was a way to have an intuitive frame of reference about cognitive science and theories of mind, which I think are going to be the next great cultural battle ground, and also relevant in the context of machine learning, and consulting.

My field? Security, privacy, and risk management.
Sounds like a case where formal methods might be both appropriate and funding might actually be available for that.
I don’t get why Omega would do this - my initial reaction is it’s dilutive to their brand and I’m happy I’ve never bought one.

Would be good to go check out their documentation and/or modules, to get a feel for the language:

Polymers degrade all on their own without physical action.

Microfiche or other photographic film is merely more dense and "pretty good" longevity.

But the goal here is maximum robustness, including all aspects of the system or life cycle. Ubiquity, dependencies, acessibility, are important aspects, more important than information density.

A film that lasts 200 years instead of thousands is not better.

A film that requires a whole specialized infrastructure to produce the materials, is not better.

A technology that requires a special media or special writer or special reader, is not better.

Paper is both very long lasting, it's also easy to get, easy to print, and easy to read with only basic equipment and process requirements, and it only matters that the paper and ink are as durable as you want them to be.

IE, you need paper, printer, camera, and computer, and if you also want longevity then you also need to select durable ink and paper, but it doesn't matter what kind exact kind of paper printer, camera or computer. If these were printed 40 years ago with dot matrix printers, it doesn't matter that in 200 years paper may not be made out of wood cellulose any more, or what kind of tech printers, cameras and computers are based on at that time. All that matters is that your choice of ink and paper aren't the obviously ephemeral types like thermal receipt printers or most inkjet.

The 40 year old dot matrix version of this would just have lower data density than what a laser printer can attain, but it would be perfectly scannable today, and it wouldn't matter if today no one makes tractor feed paper any more, or that you're scanning it with a phone instead of some photodiode contraption.

Aside from the simpleness of the paper & ink itself, the ubiquity is a huge functionality aspect.

It's not better if it requires a photo lab to produce and a special viewer to read. A microfich viewer is not exactly high tech, but I don't have one, nor does my coffee shop nor any hotel or airport I've ever been in. But printers and cameras are everywhere, which means anyone can use them any where any time.

And the critical point is it's not just todays printers and paper and inks that manufacturers just happen to be mass producing today. The image doesn't care what tech was used to print it, or scan it, it remains functional even when all the tech changes.

The tech agnosticism and ubiquity/accessibility are the critically important features. They're not nice or optional, they're central, they're the explicit defined purposes and that outweigh all other considerations.

There is no film anywhere that even comes close to doing as good a job as a printer and paper for the stated goals of this project.
> The next great search engine will emerge from a niche and conquer one segment after another from there.

Even if by some lucky circumstance Google doesn't become aware of the new kid conquering their beachhead, as they start down this expansion path Google will acquire them or throw resources at competing. A deliberate strategy of only going after segments that Google avoids (like social) almost inevitably attracts the attention of some other MANGAM.

Still, given enough dice rolls someone will eventually have a streak, but we'll be waiting a while for that to happen.
The article leads the reader directly to just one possible cause, but lacks a wider point of view and control groups are missing.

To start I miss the totals here to understand better the problem. This is red flag. There are hundreds of adults killed by pollution in the same area for example, accounting for about 4-5% of the total deceases each year. Could be this related?. How many babies were born by year in the hospital?
> Why do you treat PHP and JS as similar languages? They're worlds apart, have different purposes and have almost nothing in common.

Because (1) both very often used in webdev, (2) both have many "adherents" that totally love the language yet have little exposure to languages of different paradigms, (3) are (opinion alert) not very well designed.

I'm aware of the differences between JS and PHP.

Irresponsible use of disk space, CPU cycles, and network bandwidth is more what I'm referring to. I've scripted some cleanup of profiles to take care of disk space exhaustion in a couple of situations. Cleaning up after Teams hasn't been a revenue generator for me, but it has created complaints. Anything that causes me to receive complaints from users draws my ire. (I subscribe to the "sewer system" theory of sysadmin for end-user facing servers, desktops, etc. You never think about your municipal sewer system unless it has problems. Ideally that's never. User-facing IT infrastructure should be the same.)

A recent immigrant, by definition, cannot be an overseas resident (at least not by normal definitions of 'resident').
> I gave specific examples and you keep using an abstract label.

I am quoting the license text.

> Communicating through complex data structures can describe files too. If you save a file from one GPLed program and open it in a non GPLed program, that is interprocess communication. If both programs are using mmap on the files instead of writes, does that change things? If files are being sent over local loop back does that change things?

I don't thinkg it would at all - it would still breach the license if e.g. you are dumping raw struct contents in your files that are only meaningful for the proprietary side of things.

It's a lot to know and it depends on the war. An infantry soldier does what it takes to win and hold on. From one viewpoint ATP 3-21.8 is a very good book but the US Army will throw it in the trash if soldiers find out that they need to do something else.

If you want to know what Putin faces in Ukraine study

because that is where the hard fighting happens. Those big block apartment buildings the Warsaw Pact built are the ultimate defense against Blitzkrieg, drive a tank past one and the people will

drop a piano on you

drop a Molotov cocktail on top of the piano

try to shoot out your periscope with a sniper rifle

hit you with an RPG-7

and then another one...

there is not a whole lot you can do from that tank because you can't point the main gun at the 4th story window and it is "not very effective" against a concrete/rebar building as they say in a Pokémon game.

To pacify that area you have the option of destroying the buildings with rocket artillery or going room to room in house to house in the meantime with infantry facing booby traps

Ah, the authors actually make their intended direction clear towards the end of the abstract:

> The results “suggest that physical symptoms persisting 10 to 12 months after the COVID-19 pandemic first wave may be associated more with the belief in having experienced COVID-19 infection than with actually being infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus,” the authors wrote in JAMA Internal Medicine.

Of course JS ain't gonna go anywhere now, but if popular JS frameworks started emitting WebAssembly behind the scenes, so devs could still write their JS(and C++/C#/etc) code, but it'd use WASM under the hood then that'd start process of the deprecation of JS.

Which would mean that after all popular JS frameworks managed to migrate and popular sites adopted to this,
then in ideal world you'd be able to turn off javascript and still use those sites/apps via WASM, not by default for everyone,
but at least users that care would have an option to do so while still being able to use the web.

The first step is moving to a custom domain. You can stay on gmail if you want; but set up a custom domain, and set up email on it and tell everyone to use your new email address.
