Interesting question.

No, I don't find movies slow. The rhythm of a film is the one that was decided by the filmmaker, so it's part of the experience(at least for fiction).

For fiction books, since the book is written, I expect to be able to read it at my own pace, and since I am a very fast reader, I usually end up 'waiting' in an audiobook, without getting anything extra in compensation. In other words, I'm frustrated by the fact that I could read much faster, but can't. I can understand from the previous answers that there are audiobooks/dramas with high production value though. I'll look into this. In such a case, I guess I should view the audiobook as a different object, i.e some kind of adaptation, much like books are turned into films.

Non fiction is completely different - I very much dislike anything audio/video. I need a book, since I want to be able to jump around non linearly (go back , skip, stop, explore this bit/ask a question , etc).
I think you can still buy whippets in the Village head shops.
Curiously, when I did transcribe the C++ code to C:

#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
FILE* in = fopen("/tmp/numbers", "r");
for (int c, n = 0; (c = getc(in)) != EOF;) {
if (c != '\n') {
n = n * 10 + (c - '0');
} else putchar((n & 7) + '0'), n = 0;
}
putchar('\n');
}

it takes 233 ms instead of the expected 84 ms.

So, go figure, again.
"Transparency" means different things to different people. I suspect we agree, because my solution to the problem is to make it clear to everyone that they can ask me anything and I'll tell them everything I legally can.

But for some people "transparency" also means a more active communication of this information, and this definitely confuses some (other) people because they will consistently interpret "we want to do X" or "we are going to do X" as "I should, right now, do (sub-part of) X".

if you only need 20gbps (so basically, you're not trying to run a bunch of 4k monitors over one cable) you can get passive 2m tb3 cables that, if certified, are probably higher quality than rando usbc cables, and I don't think that those would be likely to be more capable. Eg: https://www.amazon.com/Certified-Plugable-Thunderbolt-20Gbps...

If you want higher bandwidth and longer you can get active cables or optical ones, but those are obviously more expensive (it's better to think of them as their own electronic device than a cable).

Seveneves denouement is almost its own book with its own characters and the end of Fall and Termination Shock just left me wanting to know the next development in their respective worlds.

Yeah, I have no problem with that…

And prison is designed to be a n unnice place, for the longest time the Maricopa County (where Phoenix is) jail was a bunch of tents because they didn’t want people to be there.

You're absolutely right. I tried building Upscayl with Tauri initially, but after a few days I had to give up because I was trading my time for bundle size. Then I tried Neutralino only to discover that it does not support node runtime. With Electron, we were able to focus on the core features and ship Upscayl very fast.

Since electron is also the only framework that supports node modules, it was pretty much the best low-resistance path for us at the moment.

I do wanna learn Rust eventually but that is an adventure for another day :)
The meme about the Magic Mouse charging upside down is really silly. There's a real good reason to be like that and you charge it once a month.

In the case of Magic Mouse, there's really a case of holding it wrong too. People hold it wrong and thats why they also complain about the ergonomics.

Sometimes "the full version might be confusing" is the same as "I haven't done a good job of explaining the full version," whether that's the roadmap for a company or a department or even just a team.
This is true only for some designs. It's possible you could have a power island that doesn't get discharged and also has no connection to any buttons when the board is nominally off, and that the things in that power island refuse to reset properly.

There's a whole area of electronics design related to this (unfortunately).
Bitmap scaling doesn't become blurry if you have enough resolution (e.g. going from 2x to 1.5x is fine). Vector scaling breaks because layout calculations don't take the pixel grid into account.

The most egregious example of this is CSS floats, where browsers have to do all sorts of hacks to ensure that percentages still add up to 100% after rounding. Otherwise fractional zoom factors cause layouts to have pixel gaps or overflow onto other pages. Fonts get around this with hinting but there's no way to hint a CSS layout.
I could probably save some size by removing the models that we aren't using but we eventually are going to use them in the next build so that's one of the stupid reasons I didn't remove it (probably should have).

Electron is definitely heavy but it's also the only framework that ships with node runtime, so it was the best option for us at the moment.

The public internet backbone (NSFNET 41) was officially decommissioned on 30 April 1995. This essentially marks the birth of today’s commercial internet.

The ground was set by the Scientific and Advanced-Technology Act on October 2, 1992. This passed Congress with almost no debate. However, there were innovative politicians who attempted to allocate a certain amount of bandwidth for a public right-of-way.

The United States has very little publicly-owned internet infrastructure and few advanced digital public services. The USA also happens to lag behind other nations in simple metrics like the speed that ISPs deliver. Maybe it's a coincidence that many of these nations have more robust public services.

I can see your point. Upvoting for your cordiality.
With lisp is it not more common to use paredit or similar? I.e. you don’t edit code like in other languages.

As you barf and slurp, you’re interested in the “shape” of code but you ignore the parens.
My mother's cable provider, Optimum Cable, routes DNS traffic to their own DNS servers.

To make matters worse, they engage in gratuitous blocking; for example, they won't resolve addresses of private networks (192.168.x.y, 10.x.y.z, etc...). For example, 192.168.1.1.nip.io won't resolve on my mom's network, but will almost everywhere else.

The solution, as another poster pointed out, was to use DNS-over-TLS.
If you're literally only using it to carry DP? I suppose. If you're actually using it as a docking cable and you're expecting it to carry usb, video, and power then I think you might have really unreasonable expectations of what it takes to carry all that in one cable and how cheap that's ever likely to be.

As much as they'd like? For me personally after having been ice burnt by the kookaid I'd be very worried if there was hand waiving and cloudiness for things I actually want to understand and get details about. In that regards show me cap tables, show me who gets what kind of preferred vesting, what impact is future funding rounds going to have on my outcomes, what stories, I mean assumptions, are your valuations predicated on? Unlike founders afaik most employees don't have the ability to sell early stock and have to wait years and years for an exit. So full transparency is the least one can do to earn trust.
OK. That makes some sense. I tend to assume everyone with a CUDA-capable GPU is already using conda. But of course that's not true.
Good. The only way we're going to get these selfish Americans to sacrifice anything is if we force them.
This framing is extremely stupid and misses the point entirely.
Remember, though, the consequence of shutting the reactors down is an increase in global climate change. The consequence of running the reactors are increased river temperatures in a handful of rivers - which as you point out are also impacted by climate change!
Yes. Like the other responses, you’re only seeing the original ticket when replying to a comment about driving on a suspended license.

As I alluded to, a gradual system of consequences building to suspension, or some other method of easing into or helping avoid the penalty state, would be more fair, especially for light offenses like the OP’s.

That does not change that we expect people not to drive on public roads when they’re barred from using them.

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that this is an impossible and futile task? I don't have a solid grasp on what kind of censorship is possible with this technology, but the goal seems to be on par with making sure nobody says anything mean online. People are extremely creative and are going to find the prompts that generate the "harmful" images.

For broke kids with more free time than money, yeah learning to access forbidden pirate sites is cool and interesting, but since Austria is a relatively high income country, most people I know here don't bother with piracy at all and just pay for content anyway.

So blocks like these will definitely discourage more Average Joes from low hanging fruit piracy and keep them as law-abiding paying customers rather than turning them into "hackers".
This is kind of silly. Nitrous oxide is not harmful unless there is so much of it, it displaces the air and causes suffocation, or it is abused in such quantity that it causes neurological issues like persistent numbness. They should make it illegal for anyone under 21 to purchase Scotchguard and the other harmful aerosols that are popular inhalents, such as air freshener, deodorant, fabric protector, hair spray, vegetable oil spray, and spray paint. Those things hurt kids. No one has died or even hurt themselves, not ever, inhaling the nitrous from whipped creme or whip creme chargers, though people have suffocated on occasion when using actual nitrous tanks.

Should twitter censor such tweets? I don’t think so unless it violates their terms - but if the target disputes it then they should label it as disputed - with link to dispute report if it passes basic checks.

That said I know this can be abused just like dmca take down notices. It’s truly arduous to balance and context matters which in turn requires godly number of man hours.

I have been playing around with it using ROCM+6900XT, makes a good alternative to DALLE. They have different strengths, DALLE seems better at lighting instructions and cityscapes, but Stable Diffusion is better at sketches.

Also, you can fine tune it on whatever you want which is awesome.

One interesting effect I have noticed on myself though is that after staring at DALLE or Stable Diffusion generated images for a long time then viewing "real" media, I get the same sense of wrongness that the output is not quite right for awhile, like my brain has been tweaking its processing to prefer the AI art as the ground truth!
Bah! You're totally right and I'm wrong. I flipped them in my head. Thank you for the correction.

Definitely some are not great, I can name 3 within a mile of me I won't go to. And some are "sketchy" but delicious. But that also applies to barbecue, mexican, catfish, etc. around me. Just look where the locals go. If there's a line at an unexpected place, it's probably good. But if it's around a college campus, it may just be cheap :).
I don't know how common this is among psychiatrists, but I started seeing a psych for major depression, ADHD, and OCD-type symptoms. I was badly depressed, getting no social interaction, or exercise, eating myself crazy, sleeping 12-20 hours at a time, no sunlight or time outside, and doing a lot of drugs (mainly opiates, which was probably the undiagnosed core of a lot of my issues). I was on 15 or so different anti-depressants, anti-psychotics, anti-epileptics from age 18-24. Much of the time I was on 3-5 at once, mostly different antidepressants and an antipsychotic or two, trying to "find a combination that worked." To treat a condition that's not treatable by psychiatric drugs. I was always 100% open and honest about all aspects and answered all questions. I wanted to get better. My psych appointments typically lasted 5-15 minutes and he was always in a rush.

As far as I can remember, there was never mention of things I should be doing differently - exercise, sleep hygeine, proper diet, sunlight exposure, socializing.

Worse yet, I found out from HN that one of the drugs I was taking permanently disables one of the serotonin pathways (of which there are 7 main types and each has subtypes) in rats, and apparently it's known that at least a couple different types of antipsychotics show reduced brain volume, with "not enough data" (not enough dead brains to study) to see their effects on humans.

> Macaque monkeys administered with the antipsychotics haloperidol and olanzapine over a 17–27 month period showed reduced brain volume. These results have not been observed in humans who also take the drug, due to the lack of available data.[24]

Anecdotally, I absolutely feel like a different person now. My wit, my creativity, my ability for great joy, my kindness, my problem solving and thinking abilities in general - all seem to be quite muted now, even though I'm now taking care of myself and arguably at a place in life where everything is finally good and stable. One drug had side effects, like being unable to talk without studdering and having any sense of urgency (if I had an important appointment, I couldn't force myself to get ready, so I just watched time go by) were reported to my doctor who said that I just needed to give it time and my body would adjust. That's the drug, called Fanapt, that I feel did the most damage.

> A lot of programming is about going from one state to another. We can do that using conditionals statements, but as the state changes those conditions can be tricky to reason about and in turn refactor. Instead it's often more convenient to use state machines: singular objects which represent all possible states and their transitions.

State machines don't necessarily alleviate the need for conditional logic. They can still require conditional logic to determine which state to transition.

The V2 was decidedly continental with a range of 320 km (200 mi). That would be considered "tactical" under present nomenclature. ICBM is considered for ranges in excess of 5,500 km (3,400 mi).

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistic_missile#Types>

The first successful ICBM was the R-7 Semyorka (NATO: SS-6 Sapwood), with an 8,800 km (5,500 mi) range. Flight testing began in 1957, and the design was operational by 1958. A modified R-7 launched Sputnik 1, in October, 1957.

I'm not arguing that further development of specific innovations didn't proceed to a high degree in the United States.

But the question regarding Japan was innovation vs. copying. The Unites States, until at least the late 19th century, and arguably well into the 20th, was copying at least to a significant degree. You might care to acknowledge this point.

Your point that countries "[n]eed a free market to enable people to profit from improvements" may have greater merits, though that too seems arguable.
Thanks. I just sent this to my graphic designer friend and was very excited. This is a though crowd.
> Twitter only seems interested in this job in the countries and on the side of the factions who are politically helpful to Twitter

So what? This is true of every media gatekeeper and always will be. Again, it's impossible for twitter to keep up with every change in the wind across the entire planet; they can't even do a satisfactory job of it in their own country.

> they could just as easily enter the fray by labeling the OPs tweets as deceptive and connected to foreign misinformation as they could enter it on the side of preventing his harassment.

If this story continues to get exposure this will probably happen, meanwhile there are thousands of other stories of threats and abuse that will go unabated and unheard because it's happening to someone that wasn't lucky enough to go viral. Twitter can only do so much, especially while opposing factions fight them every time they do anything.
This is not just the story of California, but the entire US southwest. Unlike back east, where water is subject to municipal authority and policy (thus allowing a town/city/county/state to decide what the best way to use the water is, especially in times of actual or imminent shortages), the western states ended up with this absurd "water rights" concept that prevents effective policy making.
Very true, but if you consider things like "The ATLAS Collaboration" to be one (very composite) author, I think GP's reasoning has some merit. There is a lot of homogeneity in a collaboration author like that, so it's a reasonable thing to do. (Also, speaking from experience, most people in the collaboration paid no attention to the paper, unless it was a Big One.)
Yeah, the best they can do is the filter's on top of the output. These models are complex enough that with some reverse engineering you can find "secret" languages to instruct them that would be able to get around input filtering.
Those departments, teams, and other groupings - none of which probably exist in a 7 person company, by the way - have to interact with each other.

Sure, but the stated purpose of these bans was not to reduce the number of plastic bags we see, it was to reduce plastic pollution. That would make you think that plastic bags were the most important source of post-consumer plastic pollution, which they aren't — plastic packaging is. For marine microplastics ("the pacific garbage patch") the main sources are things like textiles, car tires, and of course fishing nets.

The thinking seems to be "well, it would be hard to eliminate those sources, so let's make it so you don't see as many plastic garbage bags drifting around, and it'll look like we did something meaningful."
