Why would an international anti corruption court have any success when corruption (lobby) is not prosecuted in the member states ?
They said the ping was 45 instead of 35. I'm not denying that the pros can tell the difference, I'm saying it wouldn't be obvious to whatever tester they had that it was 10ms off.
I'd like to have a solution where chroma keying is done in hardware and ideally also something where I can combine my monitor picture and my camera to do "talking head" videos without software running on my main laptop. It should "just" receive the final picture ready to be streamed to Zoom et. al.

I'm probably not explaining very well. In the end I want to rely on OS & Software as little as possible because things keep breaking (on Linux) for me so if I can just get a single video feed to select as the camera source for Zoom, Teams et. al that'd be great.
Aye - it would probably need to be ruggedized, but a camera pod wouldn’t be the end of the world.
> What exactly is a "Twitter cesspool"? Viewpoints that don't align with yours? Radical politics?

This is a very presumptuous response.

A more charitable interpretation might just be where discussions are happening that you're not interested in on twitter. For example, 'this person keeps getting embroiled in twitter arguments about covid', so I'm going to unfloow them because even though I agree with their opinions, I'm not interested in the inevitably heated and pointless discussions leaking into my timeline.
That answer only reveals the lack of knowledge of the state of the art in GUI and 3D graphics tooling in general.

To your information all relevant middleware supports Metal, like Unity and Unreal.

Isn't great that the "best choice" needs to rely on workarounds like Proton, and Electron apps, and gets zero ports from Android/Linux.

This strategy is commonly referred to as being in the class of “latency hiding” as it doesn’t actually improve latency, it just allows you to reduce apparent latency. In practice it’s still useful but I think it’s mainly useful because it allows for local input to be buffered significantly less than if you were to compensate for lag by adding buffering only. However, that is not always useful. It is mainly useful in games where netplay is handled in a lock-step fashion, where each peer needs to keep every action coherent frame-wise. That makes sense for things like fighting games, but it doesn’t make all that much for say, puzzle games, even though those can be quite latency sensitive too.

Either way, there is nothing magic. At the end of the day, the soonest you can see an action is still physically unchanged. Especially since the prediction model that makes the most sense is just assuming no action.

That said, I dunno enough about MOBAs to try and postulate on how much it matters, and I have no idea if LoL is using lockstep or some other approach.
Oh, that makes sense. It doesn't technically exile when it's removed from the battlefield; there's just nothing to come back.

Thanks for the clarification!

To explain my position a bit more, I was considering, e.g., Restoration Angel but that's still moot with your point.
What? Life exists because it is the fastest way of raising entropy. Self replicating biological machines process matter much faster than geological processes. The Haber Bosch process is just a faster way of raising entropy. What we should be worried about is reaching the end too soon.
I don't know. The Guardian has published misleading stories before. It's very possible that this is in fact a true and accurate summation of the situation. But I also cannot be sure that this is tainted by some propagandistic motives, or misunderstanding of the situation. I don't have an opinion either way. I just wish I could trust newspapers and take them at their word.
Only if you don't read it.

At this point I'm beginning to wonder what your burden of proof is for Musk doing anything that could be considered wrong.
Hardly. The style reminds me a lot of Van Gogh and you know who I mean.
I've seen it used once and to a disastrous result. I kinda feel like there are other workarounds too:

I remember one of the Motorola phones was designed for expansions, but that was pre-USB C. If you had a horizontally symmetrical phone, maybe widgets could solve the problem? Front facing and rear facing, while also being privacy respecting, no notch necessary, and similar resolution to boot. so maybe easier to source. Free up some room on the SOC and relieve some complexity while providing the added benefit of port protection. Presumably this could be applied to SD and obviously 3.5mm jacks.
The extra bugs in a statically typed program go in the duplicated code that someone copied and changed the type names on because their type system wasn't flexible enough to let different types share the same code. This means that 3 years later when someone fixed a bug in part of the code, the bug remained in the other copy because the person writing the fix didn't know about the copy.

For a simple example, consider Arrow.jl vs the C++ implementation of the Arrow format. The Julia implementation is roughly 1/10th the lines of code (with more functionality), so even if there are 5x more bugs per line, the code still has fewer bugs.

Static types definitely reduce bugs per line, but they can still increase bugs per functionality.
It is definitely more possible in Nim than in Python to use parens () in many (but not all) places to be more like bracy languages (but with parens being the brace..).
If you decided on race, in this instance, you would be making people much more deterministic as a result of the power of race. Race is too broad a concept to reliably say that all white people are at X chance of recidivism. Instead we want to know if Marlowe is at risk of high recidivism based on her character.

I'm fine with that. Newer OSes contain new features and APIs, and I can totally understand a developer wanting to build on top of some new feature instead of having to reinvent it themselves. Sometimes that's inconvenient for me, although I try to keep all my devices current. But if a dev wants to require an OS version that's shipped with every M1 Mac that's ever existed and chooses that as their cutoff, I get it.
Not only they were cousins, in their private correspondence right before the outbreak of WWI they were addressing each other as Willy and Nicky[0].

I'm not sure why it didn't happen here, but there are a lot of times where it does. Another article mentioned that no fines had been levied because of this law. That might be a reason it was allowed to stay in effect.
> anything that isn’t utterly frivolous like fidget spinners and such.

This frivolity is exactly what countries need to do if they want to manufacture at the level China is. Fidget spinners were built as a way of scaling up the manufacturing of very high-tolerance bearings, and selling them in the USA for $5 helped ensure that every American involved in manufacturing understood just how adept China had become.

The compute modules only has a 5V input, which it must convert to the voltages used by the CPU, RAM, peripherals, etc. using aforementioned power ICs. A modern CPU like the BCM2711 usually has several different voltage domains that must be supplied by the PCB designer, ranging from 1.2v to 3.3v.
You might be right on that. I'm really just frustrated by the way the democrats are rely on unelected supreme court justices to compensate for legislative failures with an extremely creative interpretation of the 14th amendment, and one that's not even consistently applied.
> The cost of entry is somewhere around $50-$100 for USB microphones, although if you're willing to spend closer to $250, you can get a decent USB audio interface ($120) + standard (XLR) microphone ($100) + XLR cable ($10) + stand or boom arm ($20).

Is a XLR microphone worth the cost increase - for meetings, not streaming(or youtube creation)?
Injecting noise is a good idea: a solenoid clicking an identical key at a jittery interval would work. More work than an airhorn though.
So long as the government can basically pick the winners/losers in the marketplace, there's an incentive for corruption. Whatever checks and balances and regulations are instituted to defend against this just serve as a feedback mechanism to increase the price for crooked behavior.

The only solution to this are systems like free markets, or as close to this as you can get. Winners and losers have to be freely chosen by quality and price in the marketplace. Corruption can't exist if there's no ability to buy anything of value.
I haven't watched TV since the late 1980s, so that one is pretty easy.
Your problem is that you thought you owned the domain name. You don't. You never did. You were merely leasing it. You failed to renew the lease, and somebody else snapped it up. It sucks for you, but you should have read the fine print the last time you renewed your domain registration.

There is a fab space shortage. The cost to manufacture goes up and so only the highest volume, highest margin chips get made.

I got an iPhone Mini hoping to be able to use it with one hand, but it wasn't small enough to do that (and I don't have small hands), so I returned it. I figured if I'm going to need a PopSocket anyway, I may as well have more screen space too

I'm not surprised the Mini has been underperforming. I think it's in an awkward valley where it's not small enough for that to be an advantage, it's only small enough for it to be a disadvantage

I've met twins that looked less alike than those cousins do.
That would be a problem if the population doubled tomorrow magically, but not if it happened through ordinary growth. We are presently using both the smallest number of people and the smallest share of land for food production at any time in history.

The reason we're struggling right now has nothing to do with the food-production capacity of the planet. It's all a combination of sudden supply shocks and governments being stupid and destructive.

Back in 2006, when I was racking and stacking servers in datacenters, I was on Sun Microsystems website looking for parts.

I noticed they had "X311L", which is (was) a standard North American power cord, listed for >>$0<< with NO shipping fee. No way these are "free" and I have BOXES of power cables already... buuut, dripping in curiosity, I ordered 10 cables. A week later, a neatly packed box of 10 power cords showed up at my house!

What an innovative business model! :D

Kaiser Wilhelm doesn't look too different either.
I think your comment is a good example of the disconnect in how you and I seem to mean different things when we say environmentally conscious. In my opinion, driving a car every day isn't environmentally conscious, regardless the size of the car. These days, the difference between two modern cars is not that big, they're both still big polluters. You don't need to drive a 5-person car to work alone every day, nor to the store, nor to the gym, but it is what very many people in Germany do. Whether that car is big or small does not make that big of a difference when you compare it to the alternative of taking the public transport, cycling or walking. I understand the alternatives are not as comfortable, but that is a matter of choice — it is a choice to build cities in a way that favors cars over pedestrians and cyclists.

A simple example of what I mean is traffic lights. I've lived in many European countries, including Germany, and travelled a very fair bit in the rest. In Germany, traffic lights are green for cars for a long time and green for pedestrians a very short time (feel free to measure this at any traffic light in your city). In countries where infrastructure is planned around humans, it's the other way around.

Cycling is another example of this. Germany doesn't have "bad weather for cycling". People cycle to work in winter in Helsinki and don't bat an eye. The difference is infrastructure. Helsinki has not only built the roads, lights and the rest around it, but they also ensure it's in good condition. When it snows, bike paths often get cleaned before car roads. It's a matter of choice. I bring up Helsinki because it's easier to compare. Netherlands and the like are so far ahead everyone else in humane cities that the comparisons are hard to make. Helsinki is a good example because their developments are recent and go to show that you can choose to live a different way.
Apple already has the SE for the low cost market. They have positioned the mini as the mid-range. What they're missing is a high-end small phone. I'd happily pay for it.
It's hard to talk about Thinkpads as a monolith because there have been so many different devices sold over the decades and their format has changed quite a bit in that time as well. As a thinkpad enjoyer I do appreciate them still but they have become less repairable in recent time. Personally I have done things like completely swap screens, motherboards, etc. to create franken thinkpads in SKUs that never existed and I would still say the Framework is more "repairable" if you define repairable as ease of removing and replace components as well as gaining access to replacement components. Framework's marketplace lists individual components that I can buy today presumably at OEM quality to fix things like hinges or keyboards and that is something Lenovo never really had (or I was not aware of it or was not able to engage with it a la some special preferred repair program).
> I'd cycle to work every day (22 km for the round trip), I'd regularly get comments from Germans that I was crazy to cycle that distance through all weather.

The Germans probably don't know that with 2cm of snow, all the other means of transport, including the Amsterdam metro, stop working. So bicycle it is. I loved my 25km (round trip) bike commute when I lived there, it was such a great way to clear my head before/after work.

There are plenty of evidence-based conclusions made about the new virus, but it is still new so not enough observation has been done to make claims (either way) about certain things yet.

Great tips, although I do like the algo - works great for discovery!

Other than that, it really is about how you curate it. Follow the people you're interested in, engage with the content you find useful, tell Twitter you don't like something by muting/blocking/notinterestedin-ing and you're good.

In that regard it's not unlike any other social media: if you don't tell it what you like, it'll show you what it things you want to see, which won't necessarily be something you'd want to see.

PCIe training and enumeration just doesn't work most of the time on RK SoC. Painful stuff. Mediocre platform that's impressive on paper only.
Replying to my own post because I can't edit it anymore.

Apparently this is a known and persistent affect across a variety of other medical images, tests, and scans. Not just for a "race" but for ethnic groups in general, as well as biological sex. So this might actually just be an "AI hit piece" that otherwise confirms an unpalatable but persistent and strong effect in the literature. The causes seem to be badly understudied, in part due of the obvious need for delicacy and respect around such topics.

This result is tremendously implausible to me, but I am finding quite a few articles documenting similar phenomena across things like retina scans and brain MRIs.
I too looked for a small phone and left disappointed. I think there are two or three notable factors.

1. Bigger chassis allows a bigger battery, longer up-time. This is probably the biggest issue.

2. Having gotten used to a 6+" for a while, the small ones appear almost too small. Books are on average bigger than that for a good reason.

3. Very naively speaking, bigger looks better and thus more expensive. Users are therefore more willing to spend more money, whereas a smaller phone will look disproportionately expensive and, as per the first point, now less powerful.

Sony was the last one other than apple to try that, as far as I can tell.

However, cheaper smartphones still exist in that space, they just don't come with newer hardware.
Seriously. I have one brother with olive skin, jet black hair and black eyes (like our mother) while I have extremely pale skin, very blond hair and light blue eyes (like our father). I don't think anyone would ever think we are related.
Amateur photographer looking to learn more here. My initial impression is that a 35mm focal length on a full-frame/35mm film equivalent sensor would have a relatively _wide_ field of view (FOV). Or do I have that backwards?

My other thought is that the suggested lens can stop down to f1.8, which would give a nice narrow depth of field (DOF) and add a pleasant background blur, but it would also be harder to stay in focus during a call. If the person on camera moves forward or backward very much at all when the lens is at f1.8, they would be pretty blurry. So perhaps they could get away with a lens that just stops down to f2.8 or so, albeit with worse low-light performance (smaller aperture, less light coming through).

But take these comments with a grain of salt. It sounds like you have a setup that works well for you.

Nobody is arguing there are no biases or suboptimal behaviours in the global economy, only that so far capitalism is the best system known for optimizing out those suboptimal behaviours. And that in particular, having governments try to short-circuit the process often make things worse rather than better.

"Tax brackets, medicaid, and public schools, to name a few. None of those are communism"

Tax brackets and medicaid are indeed not communism, though in a communist system Medicaid would be the only option. Those are safety nets, not forced equalization of outcomes (state schools aren't really a safety net, and in my view shouldn't exist; governments have a poor track record with education and ensuring everyone has access to it could be done in other ways like voucher schemes).

"A mandate for diversity on corporate boards wouldn't be communism either - it'd be an attempt to undo historical biases that give people unequal opportunities based on their race or gender."

These laws aren't safety nets designed to ensure a minimum quality of life for all. They are communism because they are direct attempts to enforce equality of outcome for only special demographic groups who are favoured by the ideology.
Very much the same situation for me. I'm especially interested in why Eric doesn't mention the headphone jack -- does he simply think it isn't a noteworthy feature, and assume the phone WILL have the jack? Or does he assume that bluetooth is the future and only silly luddites like us care about the jack?

I hope Eric eases up on the weirdly specific requirements, like dual rear cameras, symmetrical bezels, and a punchout front camera, and refocuses on features that make or break the phone to end users.
Same thing happened to me. If you have a trademark, maybe try to enforce it.
That is absurd. If you only have energy, you have nothing that is worth transforming. It is more appropriate to say that land(including the atmosphere surrounding it) is the most important source of wealth, as you can both extract energy and elements from it.

The land on the moon is worth very little as there is almost no water on it. If we could extract rocket fuels from there we would already be sending people to mars. People don't seem to understand how valuable our planet is.
Scaling data access by moving an exabyte of data to Google Cloud
oh, that's for economic reasons. The industrial and desktop consumer computer vision markets are orders of magnitude smaller and their development cycle times orders of magnitude longer.

I looked into this a while ago- trying to use gcam technology for scientific imaging- when I worked at Google, and there was zero interest from those teams. They were 100% focused on next-gen camera tech (and it showed- that was the period when phones got unbelievably good at taking high quality images using computational photography).
