I reponsed to a similar comment hete earlier, I've reproduced that below, maybe that will give some context:

I don't have much hope for it, I know several people that worked for amazon lumberyard (it's old name), that have quit because that organization is collapsing in on itself, losing engineers way faster than they can hire, and the engine is still buried under a mountain of tech debt inherited from Cryengine (that real Cryengine has resolved a long time ago)

One quit because the new render was so performance intensive, an rtx 2080 super was min spec for the lightest of scenes to achieve 60fps.

Another because he became the last engineer on his team after all the others quit and moved elsewhere at Amazon.

Even hoping open source saves it is unlikely, as it's only in name. The CI and infrastructure to meaningfully develop it open source does not exist.

As a final nail, the install process takes over two hours, which is just not competitive.
>The root problem with conventional currency is all the trust that's required to make it work.

Surely this is a joke? Most currencies enjoy a high degree of trust until they collapse due to structural reasons that have nothing to do with trust whatsoever.

The euro zone and the dollar show that there is practically no shortage of trust whatsoever.

Seriously, this dude is supposed to liberate us from the evils of money?

How did it come to this? The root problem with currency is the zero lower bound of interest and liquidity preference which both combined result in permanently positive interest rates. When you refuse to pay interest, the economy stagnates and it can result in mass unemployment. This has nothing to do with trust. The Bitcoin economy is plagued with mass unemployment. The insanity of unemployment is a consequence of the insanity of non neutral money.
Alternatively, you can pay interest, however this means you must perpetually borrow more money, e.g. Keynesian fiscal stimulus, notice that the insanity originates in money itself, not in the political response, the political response must be at least as insane as the money system, no less and it collapses. Now, there is a third way, QE aka not bothering to ask people whether they want to lend their money out, however, due to liquidity preference, the additionally created money will stagnate somewhere, meaning you can't ever stop QE. Again, in this case the insanity is a structural property of the currency, the monetary intervention has to be as insane as the money system and no less.

The apparent untrustworthiness of politicians is the result of the insanity of money, not the other way around. If money worked properly, you wouldn't need politicians to mess with it, you wouldn't even consider trust to be the problem because the amount needed would be so miniscule as to never matter in the grand scheme of things.

It is really strange to me, that people notice a constant problem with money and yet they still come up with the same conclusion "you're holding it wrong", what if it is impossible to hold it properly? What if permanent money is irreparably broken and forces its own debasement and all the other problems?
Sounds almost like an reincarnation but without the brain and with the heart of a pig.

More seriously: great news.

The "response" is more commonly excluding people. Most often especially by people that allegedly favor tolerance. A lie that is uncovered by actions.

Freedom of speech does indeed mean freedom from retaliation. Of course it does, that this is a contested point in any discourse is an educational failure. No, that does not make a popular XKCD comic wrong that many seem to base their opinion on. But freedom of speech is not only a legislative issue. If you need to be compelled by law, you obviously just don't share a most fundamental democratic value.

It is crazy how "touched" the comments of this article are. Wobbling their arms about flat Earthers and Putin. I would have expected more from the readers of the NYT and the editors are correct in their assessment. They are dishonest to themselves even if the editors put the arguments in bacon by rigorously mentioning Republicans restricting speech.
It's an opportunistic play that didn't find an opportunity. Pretty reasonable to return the money.

Ackman still has a reputation to protect, so he needed to look for some sort of reasonable deal with good flippability (that's the Latin term). That's gone now with all the air deflating from the SPAC market. A SPAC play would not likely be the kind of thing he'd buy and hold for ages, especially as everyone knows there's some serious adverse selection going on concerning which firms will go for a SPAC.

There's a fair chance his sales guys are able to simply move the investors over into his main fund or some similar vehicle, so it's not actually such a big deal for him financially. Plus you get kudos for not doing something that might be seen as reckless or profiteering.
I do care. It's no excuse for bad writing. Monster is childish and lazy.

Imo one should rule out the mainstream gaming keyboards (those are usually not that great value).

There are quite some viable options from manufacturers like Leopold (FC750) and Varmilo (VA87) which also offer a wider variety of switches in the sub 200$ category.

If you would like to dive a bit deeper into the mechanical keyboard world - without breaking the bank - you could also have a look at the GMMK Pro (+ pick switches and keycaps) - which is probably the entry level enthusiast keeb to get right now.

The Constitution is silent on abortion, and until Roe v. Wade (1973), few people thought that it contained a right to abortion. The Supreme Court returning this issue to state legislatures is a strengthening of U.S. democracy.

The point is that the classification of independent contractors is almost entirely used to circumvent employee protections. I believe California is likely simply applying the correct definition of an employee, as there are multiple state and federal tests to determine if an employee is an independent contractor or not. However, I do think a lot of these people are just manipulated by their employers and politicians to act against their own best interests in making that determination. If companies don't want employees classified as employees, then they shouldn't treat them like one.

I don't know about your US "rights". But here it's illegal to record somebody without permission and store it somewhere. Basically against GDPR.

Of course, as a property owner you can request cameras facing public space, but you must be GDPR compliant then and you're put into register and anybody can requests deletion. Also you must provide valid reason for this request.

To me(us) is absurd that you can record private citizens and do whatever you want with it. Ridiculous.

Cries in German.

In Italy, prices started going down for mobile only when, back in 2007, they introduced a law to make unlawful minimum duration of contracts.

After that, given users could switch each month, prices went really down 'cause there was a _real_ market.

Here in Germany, you are locked to an operator for 24 months, and prices are crazy high. So, yes, please, more regulations.

Something which was once a statement and started with a keyword can become an expression in a new version of a language.

For example, in C# 7, throws were made into expressions to allow syntax like this:

return a ? b : throw new Exception();

So I wouldn't rely on this rule.

Don't worry, you'll probably be able to simulate that with some kind of "retro mode".

Many ICE cars already artificially pump in the sound of an older, nosier engine when you put them into sports mode.

My 4 cylinder diesel GTD sounds like a V8 when I floor it (unless I have the windows open of course. In which case I can actually hear the engine and like all diesels it just sounds like a tractor).

You'd just need to add some kind of engine response curve to the EV throttle[1] to simulate hitting the correct rev band/gear change.

Well, the emergent feature of PoGO pre-pandemic was meeting new people. It's kind of like smoking is not really about smoking, if you know what I mean.

Do you think it is possible that the longer sleep period that is usually associated with illness is a sign of a sleep crash for you? Like, maybe sleeping 2-3 hours per night eventually finally catches up to you physically and you need a longer sleeping period to recoup? Then again maybe that's unlikely if it only happens once a year or so.

I was curious because what you wrote reminds me of what happened to me, but on a different time frame. I would "naturally" have the energy to stay up really late and often get 3-5 hours of sleep per night. I felt alright. Then once a month or so on a weekend I'd sleep ~12 hours. Over time that once-a-month longer sleep period turned into every other weekend, then every weekend, and then 12 hours turned into 15. It took me way too long to realize that I'd be basically walking around like a sleepless zombie all week even though I thought I felt "fine" and then completely crashing due to lack of sleep on the weekend. It's like my judgement of my own resting state was impaired, thinking I was OK and rested when I wasn't. Starting to get more sleep during the week felt like coming up from underwater.

> They had the best BASIC interpreter in the business

Given the whole thread that spawned from this, I have to say that I think this was poorly-worded.

MS did not have the "best" BASIC by any measure except by one: it had the smallest BASIC in the business.

The early MS BASIC releases ran in 4 kB or so, and even later on after it expanded, it still ran in 8kB.

Bill Gates, Paul Allen and Monty Davidoff were famous for fitting a lot of code into a very small amount of space. That was the basis of the former two's extraordinarily successful careers.

But "best"? No.

By 1981, Acorn offered BBC BASIC, a drastically better language by any measure: structured programming, local variables inside named procedures, inline assembler and more. But it needed 16kB of ROM: a quarter of the memory map of an 8-bit CPU.

> and everyone licensed from them already.

"Everybody" did not license it. AFAICR Atari and Apple didn't; across the ocean, Sinclair and Acorn and Tangerine didn't.

But yes, MS BASIC was dominant on the early American 8-bit machines: it was on Commodore, and I think on Tandy, and of course on the IBM PC right in the ROM if you didn't have disk drives.

There are other costs, like fragmentation: not everybody agrees that "monster" is a good replacement, and there are many places where it definitely isn't a good replacement.

On a personal level, it may be a few tiny tweaks but also very tiny personal impact. On a global scale, it could be a larger impact but also takes a lot more effort (combined effort of millions of tiny tweaks). Whether that effort is worth the payoff is debatable, especially considering what other initiatives that effort could be directed to.

Interesting topic. I probably don't sleep enough. Frequently go to bed past 2 am, get woken up by my kids around 7, so that's 5 hours at most. I seem to be functioning fine, though.

Completely anecdotal of course. I should probably go to bed earlier anyway.
