Ive only poked at godot, is there a reason that GDscript is so dominant?

> Findings suggest larger vehicles are involved in pedestrian and pedalcyclist crashes with more severe injuries that result in higher hospital charges.

I've commuted 10s of thousands of miles by bike the last 30 years, mostly in an urban environment. This doesn't surprise me. I can't read the whole article, and the excerpt doesn't offer any data or speculation about the causes of this. So, with some experience, I'll speculate. I'm happy to have real data instead!

So, why? Well, my first thought is that the impact surfaces of those vehicles are much higher off the ground. Rather than being tossed up onto a hood, people might be more likely to be hit directly.

Also, the visibility in tall vehicles is worse. For the driver of a sedan, my whole bicycle and torso are eye-level for them -- I'm easier to see. To a Suburban driver, my head and maybe shoulders are at eye level. I've ridden next to [ostensibly] passenger vehicles where the drivers are above my head level; they'd have to look _down_ to even see me.

And even aside from the height, modern vehicles have narrower windows and larger pillars. This alone makes a big difference. As a contrast, compare an old car with a modern one. The old Benz has at least 150% the visibility. It's like driving inside a fishbowl.

Dude, decaf.

First, re: Stopping the truck: Nice metaphor - er, intuition pump. You’ve seen a runaway truck ramp, right?

Second, a bunch of actual physicists appear to disagree with you: https://physicstoday.scitation.org/doi/10.1063/PT.3.4018 And they’re not even counting OIF.

Third, no one in this conversation gave a timeline (although I agree that it’s generally implied to be around 2100). Also, no one is talking removing all the CO2, just creating a drain.

Fourth, Re Thor. Well, we have Thor-like technologies in some areas, like nuclear weapons and nuclear power plants. It seems like building a bunch of little Thors isn’t that insane.

Fifth, what’s your suggestion? Put a dome over every city an run giant air conditioners? Move to Mars? Lay down and die as the planet turns into Venus? Those all seem way less likely than CC. (Well, I guess lay down and die as the planet turns into Venus is the default, but that’s not really a suggestion, just giving up.)
The next version after the last one shown, Flight Simulator 5, was the first version to include the entire Earth. It was very simple, but full size, and the basic layout of the ground and hills was all there.

Although back then, the ground was flat and hills were just big pyramids with different heights placed on the flat ground. The ground in FS 5 now had textures, albeit very low res, but the hills and mountains didn't (although Mt Rainier was textured). In later versions the hills got textures, but it wasn't until Flight Simulator 2000 that the entire terrain became a heightmap mesh.

As a relative newcomer to WebAssembly, the first thing I noticed was a disconnect between WebAssembly, which is loosely governed by W3C process, whereas WASI, a subgroup, never released a draft, closest thing being the module id people tend to use, wasi_snapshot_preview1. The next surprise is finding most implementations usable by end users (ex language compilers, not necessarily wasi-libc), employ a small subset of the apis on a whack-a-mole basis. Then, you find that most attempts to have a test kit failed, and unlike the core spec which has a way to say if you passed or not, there's neither decent documentation, nor a test kit for wasi. Then, when issues are raised, some comments you mention about copy/paste CloudABI problems are conceded even by the project team. However, there's no usable infrastructure to bridge to what the next one is (I think based on component model, but supposedly usable without it).

My feeling is that the amount of surprised I had was brought about by the overwhelming marketing that WASI was basically this thing that gives you a capabilities based model for system calls, and in practice it was a semi-implemented, glorified markdown file that was not a part of any standardization process, at least not W3C draft..REC.

Now, I look at some of the tensions and they seem to imply this solved backend, but not frontend :) Well, I would say that it got backends turning, basically pushing the abstraction cliff a bit farther out than ad-hoc host ABIs times X targets. This surely was helpful as it allows people to get much farther along especially when everything uses llvm and libc. However, I hope what's next can do a bit more rigor as the first was an example of how to thrash a lot of people. spectest shouldn't be an optional thing in something called a standard, detailed mapping documents can happen to help people implement the paper and pass those tests. I think whatever happens next can fix things, and it will be both a matter of avoiding copy/pasta spec, but also adding far more rigor.

Regardless, I personally am happy to continue supporting who has used WASI and its alternatives including the next WASIs. Progress is important and I think WASI, albeit stumbling, progressed the backend a lot.

Opiates are literally everywhere, even in affluent areas (Chester County's main line area has issues, but they look different since they have money). Blight (assuming this is houses that don't look great) is going to occur anywhere there's a lack of money. The reason jobs don't fully fix the blight is that many of those people are on a fixed income and retired (elderly are an outsized portion of the population since the kids had to move away for work). The people who do have jobs tend to have well kept properties. I'm not sure about the pollution problem aside from some sulfur creeks in the region.

I'm sure there are plenty of candidate cities throughout the overall region, and it would likely depend on what the industry is. Someplace around Indiana PA would be good if you need semi close access to a commercial airport, a larger city, or a college. Erie could be similar. Johnstown PA area is good if you have government contracts, defense work, or need a regional or shipping airport. Bedford or Breezewood PA can be good for warehouses and shipping with the highways. Medium to small companies would be well served to position themselves between two medium/small towns for cheap land and larger workforce pool without being near the larger cities, like Millville and Stillwater as an example.
Ask HN: What were some key scientific breakthroughs between JWST and Hubble?
I keep wondering what made it possible for JWST to see what Hubble couldn't see.

I can think of things to do with the image processing of the light that can now be captured. However, was it really to do with computational techniques?

Or, was it the optics, i.e. some 'analogue' means that made it possible?

I was hoping someone on here knew about it or could point me someplace.

Thanks.

I agree with most, except the quality of my life.

I find my general quality of life to be better. Access to clean air, a great commute, education, a more relaxed lifestyle, better treatment for women in public in the US as compared to India

Of course this is highly contextual, but this my opinion
It's a good question, and definitely a dynamic we see sometimes in other parts of the marketplace - all though that's usually more driven by market dynamics than consumer behavior (e.g. publishers over-optimizing something that only works until the advertisers update their bidding strategy).

In this specific case our clients are generally insurance companies, and the traffic in their funnel is not made up of current customers. The point of the predictive model is to identify people who aren't going to convert, so retention isn't relevant. Passing those consumers on to competitors who are a better fit helps the carrier recoup money, and helps the consumer find a plan they're more likely to buy.

In terms of re-shopping down the road (customer lifetime could average anywhere from 3 months to 5 years from now, depending on the carrier), people generally don't visit insurance websites enough to build any strong opinion about what the UX was like - so as long as it's not spammy like a travel site, it's a fairly fresh game every time they shop for a policy.

Using canvas for fast visualizations is good! As you say, it's fast, you have layout management, and lower-level control of how things load and paint.

Using canvas for the entire UI...is not good. You have to reinvent _everything_, poorly. You have no accessibility support. Text selection doesn't exist, things look and behave kind of "off" from what people expect.

All that so you can avoid spending a few hours learning some CSS? Not sure it's worth it.

> Passenger cars were the striking vehicle in most fatal pedestrian and pedalcyclist crashes, though they were underrepresented relative to the proportion of all crashes in which they were involved. Though pickup trucks were the striking vehicle in just 5.6% of pedestrian and pedalcyclist crashes, they were involved in 12.6% of fatalities. SUVs were similarly overrepresented in fatalities relative to the proportion of their involvement in all crashes. SUVs struck 14.7% of the pedestrians and pedalcyclists investigated here, but were involved in 25.4% of the fatalities.

> In fact, passenger car sales in the United States dropped at an annual rate of 2.4% from 2008 to 2018 alone, while pickup truck sales increased at an annual rate of 6.4% (Davis & Boundy, 2020). In 2008 light trucks were about 40% of light vehicles produced, in 2018 they were nearly half (Ibid).

Based on this, I would put SUV's/Trucks conservatively at say 45% of US vehicles.

Based on this,

their combined pedestrian/pedalcyclist crashes are 5.6 + 14.7 = 20.3%

their combined fatality is 12.6 + 25.4 = 38%

With these numbers, given that the crashes are lower in proportion to their overall numbers, I would say that Light Trucks/SUV's are less likely to be involved in a crash with pedestrians/cyclists but when a crash does happen it is worse. However, they do not seem to be a disproportionate cause of pedestrian/pedalcyclists fatalities compared to passenger cars.

- I don't think gambling should be illegal, but it does hurt a lot of people. You may find that working for a gambling company hurts your employment prospects in the future. I would suggest avoiding companies in industries that either are harming society or are popularly thought to be harming it (gambling, porn, Meta, etc.)

Luckily it was our source code making the requests, so we could change it, but that took an hours or so to roll out.)

> and extremely low risk of copyright litigation

but for a different reason than now!

sometimes porn fails a copyright infringement claim because it can be argued that the particular piece of work doesn't satisfy Article 1 Section 8 of the US constitution backing the copyright concept "To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries;"

It's still unsettled case law because it's only troll law firms that are challenging on behalf of porn copyright holders, and they never appeal.

Libraries are where the complexity should be. It it's used by 200 people, it makes sense to put the work in there, rather than duplicate it 200 times.

Library developers obviously deserve nice things too, but that is why they should be getting paid for their work. If TypeScript is better for users(I think it is, although I would prefer we move the whole world to Dart natively with no compile step....), then it helps you make a better product.

Which you should be getting paid for, as many FOSS devs are.

I’d argue that it has to do with C extensions making it a lot of work to get it right.

Some library code does it (which is where I learned how to do it ‘correctly’) but in general, run of the mill code it is pretty rare. Just something like an overloaded __add__ turns into a page and a half of code and there’s a lot of functions in the numbers protocol struct.

Better mechanics behind mirrors. I suspect the flaw in Hubble would not exist if they had the MEMS class movement methods, and stable thin mirror methods being used in JWST.

Cooling for IR has improved. I read some stuff about how in Microwave and related space they use thermally stable "standard" black bodies to do differential analysis of things being seen, and the reference. I would imagine things like Vanta-Black help there with low reflectance stable sources for comparison.

CCDs have come on immensely. They'd be two orders of magnitude "bigger" and also actually "smaller pixels" so to speak.

It seems like one of the primary reasons why Blueprints are well-loved in Unreal Engine, is that the only mainstream alternative is full-on c++ (and it's not an easy c++ codebase to work with).

But without that pressure of limited choice, blueprint visual scripting seems to have a hard time gaining ground in godot.

I do wonder how much of this is because godot's visual scripting never got the polish it needed, and how much is because gdscript is a superior approach.

The central harm of child pornography is the victimization of children in its production (and the fact that commercial demand for it fuels such victimization).

Arguably, there are also lesser harms from consumption of it, but even so harmless generation of to-order child porn that collapsed the value of the harmfully generated kind by being indistinguishable from it would probably be a net win.

(Of course, with the techniques currently used, that would require a large corpus of the harmfully generated kind to work from; but one could imagine further developments in ML that allow better generalization that would allow that without any actual abuse images.)
