Conveniently, a 400m/quarter mile track of a conventional configuration circumscribes an area of roughly the size and shape of a football field :-)

(Plus some buffer area all around, etc).

In many places in Ohio (where I'm from) it's pretty standard for the 400m track to surround the football field and for the stands to do dual use.

The air speed plus initial stability is what maintains stability. It's the entire reason guns are rifled, to give the bullet initial stability.

If you fire straight up, there’s a point where it reaches an actual zero velocity before heading back down. It’s lost all its stability at this point.

It's quite literally the same thing as dropping a bullet.
5907 hours spent playing RDR2? Assuming he spent 12 hours a day playing that's 492 days spent doing nothing but playing RDR2 (the 246 days quoted in the article assumes he didn't sleep, eat, go to the loo, shower, etc.). He's literally spent 33% of his waking life in the ~4 years since release doing nothing but playing RDR2 or RDR Online? That seems... perhaps unhealthy, certainly unbalanced - it's definitely a lot of time invested in one game which, given the profusion of other excellent games available, seems maybe too limited? Each to their own, I guess.

Aptly put. Dorsey was goofing off for years as Twitter’s CEO and now suddenly he is the guy who cares about Twitter. I remember people compared him to Steve Jobs when Dorsey returned to Twitter because Jobs at one point managed Pixar and Apple. What misplaced faith!
> I'd imagine the people who are now pro-censorship would turn back to free speech zealots if we banned all mentions of homosexuality online like they have in Russia.

Of course people who believe there should be specific limits to free speech are specific about those limits. It's already pretty common for activists to be in favor of allowing sex work while also wanting hate sites like Stormfront removed from the internet. If you remove both, then they'll focus on allowing sex work because the Stormfront problem is presently solved. That doesn't mean they stopped believing Stormfront should not exist on the internet.
If you need/want something all in one with keyboard yeah that's a decent choice. Throw some drums (I got TR-6S) and it's all you need really. They also have wavestate and opsix in similar price range. Funnily enough those two are powered by raspberry Pi CM

Microfreak is kinda cool and almost half the price of that but it's keyboard is both advantage and disadvantage.

Yamaha's reface series is also kinda interesting.

I wish some company would just release a midi keyboard with some knobs, buttons and screens and rpi socket, I feel like a lot of cool stuff could happen if all of the effort was focused on one hardware platform. There are a bunch of "a rpi doing music things" out there but mostly incompatible with eachother...
I'd say containing things is just one function of arrays. The other arguably more important function is "naming" things using numbers.
Buried in several paragraphs of gee-whiz is a single sentence with references to the Iran coup and torturing prisoners overseas, but that's the only suggestion that the CIA might not always have done things on the up-and-up.

I guess if you wanted to be thorough, and include at least a mention of every single atrocity, there wouldn't be room left to talk about important things like exploding martini glasses and dead-drop rats.
> I somehow believe humans will be capable of that in that time.

Why? Because we've done stuff before? We live past the times of flying cars and meals in pill form. We are 40 years from the Jetsons, three years past the original Blade Runner, etc.

This is just handwaving away all of the hard parts of the solution and saying that otherwise, it would be simple. Yes, yes it would. It would definitely be easy if it weren't hard.

It boggles my mind how much the HN crowd utterly despises cars.

I could never imagine myself living without a car, even in cities/countries with amazing public transit (NYC is not such a place).

I am 100% in agreement for banning cars from dense urban cores.

But my impression is that people here want to go much, much, further than that, ranging from exterminating the concept of suburbs all the way to exterminating all privately owned cars ensuring the only way to visit Grandma‘s farm is via bus.

Saturating arithmetic is available on some DSPs and may be available to C programs via #pragma on those architectures. IMHO this is a burden to every ALU and instruction that does not need the feature. We should not push application specific features like that down to the basic hardware. We'd also need to provide language support for it.

To be honest, people dont seem to care too much who did it. It was russia: what are they gonna do, sanction them? It was the US: what are russians gonna do, go to war with the west?

Whoever did this, they solved a Godrian knot. Imagine going into winter with one pipeline being the lifeline of europe.

[My conspiracy theory: this was a arranged via secret negotiations between US and Russia. They want an end to the war with russia cut off from the western system and europe out of the picture. Putin gets pyrrhic "victory" and a golden bridge with the new republics, and Ukraine joins NATO, with nukes pointed at russia]
My pet theory is that you can't portray a career in military as something attractive if the population is too sensitive to violence.

In order for Stadia to be profitable, Google needed a lot of people to sign up for it.

Not enough people did, and after running Stadia for many months, there was nothing to indicate that enough people ever would, or that the burn rate could be lowered enough to be profitable with the current number of customers.

So tactically it didn’t make sense, and apparently nobody could make a strategic case (i.e., even though we are losing money now, we should continue it for <reasons>) for it either.
> But hell, I may be wrong there and may be giving most AAA devs too much credit.

I don't think this is a fair comment. Theres an enormous tradeoff to make when compressing game assets, and uncompressed game assets are _absolutely enormous_. My current project has about 30 people at the moment. The game content is ~50GB, the client itself is ~4GB but the source substance files/fbx files/photogrammetry assets are tipping on 500GB. We're a _small_ AAA game. My previous project was closer to 500GB for the game content, and the source assets were multiple TB.

Tools like Oodle are third party licenses that need to be considered. Most games are compressing but switching to better compression methods can make the differences shown. Theres still huge tradeoffs to be made though. Most GPU formats for consoles require platform specific texture formats, and some of them don't compress well (hello dxt). You might have to trade a 20% file size reduction for a 30 second increase load time. Is that worth it? Maybe.

Either way, it's not just "dumb Devs". We care, we work hard on this.
>And if he does, why was he using Stadia instead?

Wasn't one of the big features of Stadia that you could essentially play it on any device anywhere as long as you had a fast internet connection?

Perhaps he was dedicated, but put a lot of time in while not at his home setup - playing on the train, long uber rides, hotels, etc...? Just speculating....
Their methodology is probably off because it doesn't seem to account for bullets tumbling. Bullets spin and that spin keeps the pointy end forward. If they're fired straight up and then fall back down they're going to end up tumbling. That makes their air resistance much higher and therefore much slower. It will also reduce the severity of impact. Instead of getting hit by the pointy end you're probably going to be hit by a bigger surface area.
Don't cut yourself on Hanlon's razor. Its frequent success comes from an excess of stupidity in the world, not from a shortage of malice. Kids learn how to "play dumb" before they can even string complete sentences together and they only get better. Hanlon's razor is often correct, but always exploitable.
Do you think you’re in the majority?

A few observations:

1. I can’t stand watching TVs in many hotels because of settings, you get the “soap opera effect”. My wife isn’t bothered by it.

2. Most cable boxes had channels with both the standard definition feeds and HD feeds. How many times have you seen people watching the SD feeds on large TVs and it didn’t bother them?

3. On another note: how many people do you see walking around with cracked phone screens who you know could afford to get it fixed. But it doesn’t bother them? I couldn’t even deal with a scratch on my screen. Related : bad displays because of a screen protector on their phones and it doesn’t bother them.
My sister had blue eyes when young and they're more green now. My own eyes are a lighter brown than they were in childhood, with hazel rings on the edges of the irises.
Romania even license built British designed Jet Airliners during the Cold war era. Also they had a deal in the 1980s with Canada, to build Canadian design Nuclear power station in Romania.
This is true but horribly misleading, you don't need a permit/license to buy a gun because you're effectively granted one (which can be denied) at the time of sale. You still have to fill out 4473 and pass the NICS check. There's no point to issuing people permits/licenses because all the information that would be on it is checked on every sale.

A system where you could get a firearm license and only renew it every few years would be less strict than what we have now.
Hanlon’s razor seems like something a King would imagine and peasants would repeat as if they thought themselves wiser than the King.
That was an exaggeration but only slightly I guess :)

A typical app on the other hand does a CRUD operation every once in a blue moon.
And who actually gains from this in the long run... Certainly not Germany or Russia... Should make it pretty clear. It could be UK as tradition of breaking down Europe, but they are having enough issues that the timing is entirely wrong... I don't think China cares, so maybe Arabs, but I doubt. Only really leaves USA and we know what they have historically been up to.
Hanlon's razor is foolish; every who's up to no good knows the "pretend it was an accident" trick. Children figure it out.

Not assuming malice is a good policy in ordinary everyday situations, but the razor lacks that nuance and says to Never assume malice, which is going too far.
That's the neat part, you don't.

The problem, ultimately, cannot be solved without disassembling neoliberal capitalism. It is more or less endemic to the system. To a large extent that short termist, get returns and move on before the cost is due, mode of being is how we managed to run an economy that requires constant growth (rather than stability) to function. It's also why we won't solve any of our climate or many social issues.

There's no way to change this without drastically restructuring the utility function people apply to decisions, and that just won't happen until the aftermath of whatever collapse is inevitably going to happen when the planet floods.
I saw mention that you could get your save games out via Google Takeout, but I don't know if that's verified or if it would even be in a format that's usable to someone.

As with everything else, try to reach eudemonia. Taking yourself too seriously is a personal failing, but having zero responsibility is equally incorrect. Finding a good balance between being an adult and staying in touch with your childhood is essential.

I know a few "NEETs" in my life that are "manchildren" and few of them are happy, and I know a few workaholics that also feel miserable. The thing is, success does indeed make people happy, and so does free time. To feel satisfied one must find work that feels somewhat meaningful, or at least shows some kind of success, and have enough time to enjoy life itself.

TL;DR: too much of anything is a bad thing. Being a manchild or a workaholic is equally bad. Find a balance between fun and work.

Gab Founder Andrew Torba Wants to Build a Christian Nationalist Internet
What I think happened is that having fun in your free time is no longer considered peculiar and strange. People have built model railways for decades at least, but the people who had hobbies like that used to be considered strange recluses with no social life. I think you were "supposed" to do a lot more group things, and group things come with pressure to fit in. The same was true in many work environments, where suits and uniforms made an office floor a homogenized blob of business workforce, whereas clothing standards have gone down in terms of "professionality" since at least the late 80s.

These days, you can do your own thing, and people are generally cool with that as long as you don't bother them with your hobbies. There's less judging, less expectations to fit the norm, and more self-expression in a lot of "modern" behaviour.

Certain people in the older generation seem to lament this; "back in my day, we didn't play dress up and go to conventions" and other such nonsense. I don't know if it's inability to let other people have fun or envy of the freedoms (young) adults have these days, but it feels like the main focus of their complaint seems all about how modern things weren't considered proper and right back when they were young, rather than provide some reason why people shouldn't do what they do for fun.

Another change is the internet: my dad didn't have the internet when he was young so many hobbies he developed were based on social activities (sports and such) and collecting (records, CDs, etc.); you were very unlikely to run into someone who was as much into painting tiny figurines as you are online.

I also think childhood media plays a role: kids' shows have moved away from random violence towards a more constructive, positive role. The message of "just be yourself and you can do anything you want" that children's media repeated has seeped into kids of yesteryear, just like many shows about accepting people for who they are and being kind to another is changing the way kids act these days. Compare that to the old magazines from the 50s and 60s where children were told how to prepare for adulthood, how to be a good husband/wife, it was all so dang militaristic!

None of this is universal, of course; there are always people who will oppose the mainstream, who will do their own thing, or who will cling to old, outdated norms. However, you can find many discussions online about how kids are more caring towards each other than before, and you can find many news articles about "millenials" doing all kinds of things "wrong", written by angry old people who failed to keep up with the world.

Your last sentence is exactly right: who the hell cares? That's what makes the millennials different from the generation before it, and I'm sure their grandchildren will bring their own unique twist to society!
Nice! Thanks for this update!
Honest question, but what is the advantage of having your website as an app? Isn't it easier for people to just go to the mobile site if it's exactly the same?
build better systems.

Easier said than done, but the basic idea would be something like what the Founding Fathers of the US did with the Constitution - make a system where incentives are set up in such a way as to align success for the individual and the group.

If you start a company, you can experiment with alternatives to the current "increase da KPI" style of organization that is so prevalent nowadays.

I think Steve Jobs was a good example of someone who governed by pointing people to a beautiful vision, rather than mindless "ya, numbers go up" type thinking prevalent amongst investors nowadays.

It is a side-by-side comparison of OSM data from 2012 (left) and the current OSM data. In my local area the difference is massive: the 2012 data has some roads but that's about it, no buildings, house numbers, etc. That's all present on the 2022 version (disclaimer: partly because I spent several months walking around mapping things with the StreetComplete app [1]).

For me it isn't down, just taking a very long time (multiple minutes) to load the 2012 data.

Many of the game studios near me (I live in Irvine, there's quite a few) test on older hardware as part of their QA process. I don't know what their limits are these days but I remember being impressed by Blizzard when I was visiting their campus once with a friend who worked there. It was fairly comprehensive at the time. According to him, anyway, many of the studios around here had similar practices.
My kids are 9 and 12 and I'm watching their blue eyes slowly change color. They both have a yellow-ish ring in the very center that's slowly expanding out. It makes for a very striking set of eye colors. I was always told that your eye color is stable after the first few years of life, but that's obviously not correct.
