There is an interesting now product called zBiotic that you could look into. You take it before drinking and it helps metabolize one of the alcohol byproducts that causes hangovers.
I have written many government contracts and I can tell you that there are no federal timekeeping requirements that would mandate that level of granularity.

Flutter is really compelling, would love to be given a project using it based on what I've seen of the environment and tooling. Dart is nice too. In my recent evaluation though I decided to go with PWAs unless I really need native only APIs. Modern web APIs are decreasing the argument for native.

Could you say more about the relative market position of your two companies?

I don't know the market at all, but Snowflake is certainly large and successful (IPOed in 2020, $50bn market cap). I could readily imagine that a company doing so well might not feel the incentive to improve very strongly. Or that they might see themselves more as a sales/marketing-led company than one where technical quality is a key driver. Whereas you folks as a challenger would have a lot more incentive to differentiate yourselves.
A better analogy is if China invaded Mongolia and the US decided to cut trade.

Ukraine is not part of the EU and the EU decided to take a moral position and live with the financial consequences that go with it.
Yeah, that image is definitely not "extremely saturated", as can be verified by saving it, opening it up in GIMP or Photoshop, and turning up the saturation.

Edit: later she complains about "muddy colors", which in my interpretation of "muddy", would mean the opposite of "extremely saturated".
But it happens and nothing will stop it. The concerned party already recognizes that by virtue of using tools to push them away. That tool being buggy is the problem here.
Yeah, that was an interesting comment. I understand where they're coming from, but humans have been ingesting things - even beyond alcohol - to modify their reality for a very, very, very long time. I don't think there's anything intrinsically wrong with asking why it is that we have continued to do this, collectively, as a species, but I hesitate to suggest that it implies that there is "something wrong with humanity".
I blame late-stage evolution. Apes with big brains starting refining tools in just the past few million years, and look where that got us.

Anyway, why is it always a fluoride salt? Is it because of the melting point or because of some nuclear property?

I imagine there is some very relevant reason, because a less reactive anion (even chlorine) would be much easier to work with.

What are the most important questions you should ask yourself as a startup founder. questions if you got right, they will increase your odds of success.
What projection matrix?

Remember that this translation needs to happen at the graphics driver level. For fixed-function OpenGL where the application actually passes the graphics driver a projection matrix this would be doable. But if your application is using a version of OpenGL newer than 2004, the projection matrix is a part of your vertex shader. The graphics driver can't tell what part of your shader deals with projection, and definitely can't tell what uniforms it would need to tweak to modify the projection matrix -- many shaders might not even have a projection matrix.
(Author here.) I imagine that existing web-based bulletin boards would simply copy messages to TMTP users if requested.

Conversely, TMTP groups/lists could be copied to a read-only website.
> The science has been in a long time that no amount of alcohol is healthy

I don't think any study really proved that a glass of beer a month would do anything to your life expectancy no?
I think they would benefit from having higher quality information than they get from seeing a number and possibly getting a refund check. I mean, just look at how many people report satisfaction in getting a large refund -- that's a silly thing to celebrate and seems to be the result of a misunderstanding about how taxes work.

I'd prefer we have automatic taxes and a short document showing taxpayers where their money is going, especially money spent in their state or county, when applicable. This should all be easy to do, just requires political will to make it happen.
Is it the CPU or the display locking up? Could it be the video driver? If you have Nvidia or Radeon, try the other video driver.
I was wondering the same thing. This sums up pretty good I guess:

I never drink when in a bad mood.

But I know my limit. I know when I feel like having another "just because" is usually a big "okay enough now"

As I'm getting older I can't drink much anymore. But wine with dinner is almost a daily thing with my partner. One to two glasses only but anymore and I'll feel a bit "off" the next day.

I've recently tested UTM and Parallels Desktop (Intel Mac) with Linux workloads (Ubuntu and NixOS). IME, UTM seems to be considerably slower than Parallels. I haven't investigated this much, but it looked like a very slow IO (despite using a disk in raw format) + htop showed that the CPU spent a lot of time in the kernel.

Nonetheless, it is a pretty nice tool
Alcohol is the most harmful drug out there[1] - worse than heroin, crack cocaine, and all the rest. It boggles my mind how common it is, while genuinely useful drugs like psilocybin are still Schedule I and relegated to the shadows.

Let's say you're gambling 10k ETH on the last bit of RANDAO output being 1. You pay 5k to enter, and get either 0 or 10k back.

Become a contributor to RANDAO. Put up your pledge (say 1k ETH). Set up the bet. Wait to be the last person to submit their pre-image to RANDAO. Calculate what the post-image will be. If it has a 1 at the end (and you would win 10k), continue as normal. If it would have a 0 (and you would win nothing), refuse to disclose your pre-image and lose your pledge. Now it's 50/50 you win.

50% win and keep pledge.
25% win and lose pledge.
25% lose and lose pledge.

EV (0.510k + 0.259k + 0.25*-1k)-5k = 2k.

You can submit more than 1 pledge to get your odds arbitrarily close to 100%.

It's very hard to get ADHD 'right', as the state of the art research can't show biologically what it is or who has it. ADHD-alike symptoms can be caused by thyroid problems, low vitamin levels, narcolepsy, depression, parasites and more.

It's a sad state of affairs because people genuinely suffer for it and we don't have the foggiest what's going on, despite ever ramping research funding. Curing it could bring back billions to the economy.

It was first described (written down) in the late 1700s. Medicine is using very blunt tools (amphetamines, ect) out of necessity to treat problems which need far better understanding.

We really need better, cheaper and more accessible medical tech. A non-theranos, steve jobs style medical tech revolution would do a lot of good for a lot of people and put cured patients to useful work, who would otherwise suffer.
I didn't address anything except for the quoted line from the blog post, which is the binary PoC detection part.

From the blog post-

Because tomorrow is not almost instantly, except in the land of circuit boards.

Your argument doesn’t pass a self-integrity check. You can get boards for a few tens of dollars. You won’t get them today.

You can get boards tomorrow, or if you happen to be close to a fab and submit your order before lunch maybe same-day. This doesn’t cost tens of dollars.
"smart" tv's remind me too much of 3d tv's. those were a fad for a while and the only non-3d tv's you could buy were high end retail displays. they are thankfully gone now.

I wanted a higher quality display than what a retail display could offer me, so I chose a "smart" tv that has oled with an appletv connected. as long as I never hook it up to ethernet or wifi, it acts as a "dumb" display and I can use only the appletv remote.

I really look forward to good displays being panel and sound only again.

It's one thing if there's an ongoing pattern of long, unexplained breaks and someone's line manager has a discreet word about it and asks if there is anything they need to know. However routinely messing with things like breaks or availability of kitchen and bathroom facilities is surely one of the most counterproductive policies an employer could adopt. Nothing says we respect and value our people like treating them as subhuman!

I don't disagree, but I have two issues when people bring up Fox and news radio.

Fox is a single entity, and let's be fair in terms of conservative/Republican vs liberal/Democrat, the split between media outlets is like 80/20 in favor of the latter. So when people focus on Fox they're ignoring 80% of the lies and half-truths that are put out there. Because that's done by outlets like MSNBC and CNN and your local outlets.

The second issue is that, unlike many liberal outlets, Fox at least brings on actual liberals to push back or give differing opinions. On the other hand you have companies like the BBC who are literally banning opposing views on topics like the environment and coronavirus.
I think they've done well to make audiences oblivious to the dozens of independent teams shooting for them, making things "Look Netflix".

> Snowflake has no incentive to push a code change that makes things 20% faster because that can correspond to 10–20% drop in short-term revenue.

If they improve performance they can lower the cost to customers, which will make the product more attractive to prospective customers. But if they are already swimming in cash they may not feel the need to gain more customers.

Only threats prompt companies to improve things. Threat of a competitor, threat of losing all their money, threat of bad PR, threat of regulation, threat to the stock price, etc.

I see this every day in companies that don't care about managing their cloud costs. They waste money like crazy because they literally don't care if they lose money, because some exec doesn't care, or they got enough funding until the next round, etc. A couple years later another exec asks why the CISO/CTO is spending so much money without any ROI, and then everybody has to stop everything they're doing to shave pennies off cloud costs.

Companies run by individual executives are insane. I don't understand why people allow companies to be run this way. I think a co-op where employees could be active participants in the running of the company would allow for more sane decision-making.
You seem to be implying or assuming that increased real estate prices lead to increased rent, but that's a non-sequitor; in fact, rents have become decoupled from real estate prices in many areas over the past 20 years.
I know. But the second sentence of the article starts with:

"Neverball uses legacy “fixed function” OpenGL."

But also you could simply remap the Z coordinate of gl_Position at the end of the vertex stage, do the clipping in [0,1] range, then map it back to [-1,1] for gl_FragCoord at the start of the fragment stage.

Unless you’ve got permission to commercially exploit other people’s copyright material, this isn’t going to fund your education - it’s going to get you sued.

Copyright violation has a statutory penalty starting at $750 per violation so you’re immediately looking at $1m+ in liability.

Wilful violation - which this would likely fall under - is $150,000 per violation. Congrats! That’s nearly a quarter billion dollar liability.

If you’ve actually cleared the licensing on these then congrats! You probably don’t need the education you’re trying to fund.
Is my ego big enough to carry this company into bankruptcy?
If you aren't willing to pay people lots of cash to have kids, and then pay for every aspect of raising those kids, then you obviously do not think it is that big of a problem.

Educated people don't have kids because they understand the costs and the costs don't make any damn sense unless you put a huge value on a traditional family lifestyle, which a lot of people don't, because once again they can't afford it.

But big businesses would rather the world burst into flames than have to spend a single cent on taxes to support the entitlements to give them a genuine working class of people, so instead the tactics we have been seeing are increased immigration and reducing the rights women have to do anything other than pump out babies.
> As the article so well puts it, every SaaS company has a vested financial interest "to leave optimization gremlins in."

It depends on the time scale. A SaaS optimizing for, say, a 1-3 year financial return will see their interests through a different lens than one optimizing for a multi-decade return. Leaving optimization gremlins in isn't aligned with customers' interests in the long run, so the customers will eventually find alternatives if the SaaS doesn't eventually align itself with customers.

It's well known that Google does bare minimum customer support, was that considered during vendor selection?
> I fully support anyone doing whatever they like with their body, but we should be able to at least acknowledge that any alcohol in any amount is self destructive.

Yes. There is a related issue, which is that a lot of people just can't accept that something they like is actually detrimental. Since I've never drank, I never experienced this specific kind of cognitive dissonance (if you can even call it that), but I've seen in so many people, it's depressing. There are some things that I love despite knowing that they are bad for your health (like certain unhealhty foods), but I would hate to deceive myself about it (knowing that they are bad allows me to manage the risks, like being aware that I should reduce consumption if I'm indulging too much). But a lot of people have the exact opposite attitude. Which is curious, because the damages are some times very obvious.

This is the crux of the issue. Behavior – including emotional responses – is learned. And what American youth are being taught is that there is danger around every corner and everything is doomed.

The irony, of course, is that the deliberate indoctrination into anxiety only makes danger more prevalent. Sheltered young people never learn to cope with challenges they may face.

I think breathless doomsaying about climate change is a brilliant example. The overwhelming zeitgeist is one of learned helplessness. But the more people feel that global disaster is both imminent and inevitable, the fewer people will be motivated to work on the problem.

If you want fast repairs, then Apple – contrary to your beliefs – is a terrible option. For example, Dell includes next business day on-site service for all XPS laptops. They also offer up to 2-hour 24/7 on-site service plans if you so desire. So if you really do care about your hardware being available, you do the opposite of what you just said: Choose something other than Apple.
Certainly feels plausible, that possibly makes a lot of sense.
It's a big deterrent, yeah, but.... Putin doesn't seem rock-solid in the sanity department.
I also thought it was interesting that the article complained about the actors being slathered in makeup, when that's all TV. You can only tell because Netflix shoots in 4k and you can actually see it for a change. But the same thing is true when you see network TV shows in 4k. It's the makeup department using their standard HD techniques because that's what most people have, but it doesn't look so good in 4k.
Sure an HOA can easily hire someone, a building manager can and often does buy a service to monitor building detectors. That’s kind of my point, we already have these scenarios where people not government solve problems.

> I could see that becoming a large burden on the few people in each community that care enough to collect environmental data.

What you’re saying is not enough people care. So the people that do care are taking money from people who don’t care to get what they want. That’s called stealing when the government isn’t doing it…

That’s my point from above, we’re taught to need government. We don’t. Never did.
