Meh, mp is kind of a disgusting hack. Maybe it would have worked here but it's so easy to run into bullshit. Off the top of my head, if you want to share a TLS connection you're obviously fucked, if you use gRPC you need to specify an env flag to be fork safe, memory overhead that interacts poorly with reference counted GC, etc.

Again, in this example I suspect things would have worked, because it's trivial code, but I wouldn't actually bet on it because I've seen MP fuck up so many times historically. Like, maybe one of those modules actually creates a static connection pool that gets messed up on mp? Who knows?

So yeah, maybe the obscene hack that 'mp' is would have worked or just use tcl, which is sane and worked for them. A note about mp in the post would have made sense, I just won't blame someone for not wanting to deal with it.
quick, someone go tell those in poverty that wealth is just a number on a ledger!
Whenever people use those words by themselves, it sounds like they don't have much information but are trying to form some conversation anyway.

Centralization and its opposite are extremely general concepts. You can't have a conversation about them because they mean nothing without specific context. Adding "the internet " or "the web" doesn't help because they're very vague too. It's like talking about "drinks" versus "not-drinks".

For those wanting a textual description: It seems to take a FFT of the audio and put it into rings (something like frequency = ring size), and those rings are then duplicated/projected to make spheres, the rings (above a certain size) are truncated to a cube shape. There is an option to have the rings move over the length of the sphere/cube so you can see the FFT over time.
> House building is clearly a positive-sum game that benefits everyone.

Not so fast. For any given project, what are the associated externalities? You can't build a house without exploiting the earth's resources. You can't build furniture without chopping down trees or digging up oil. You can't harvest energy without disrupting the environment in one way or another. Your renting your house on AirBnB is extracting more money from your guests than the time value of the house. Your guest must then do something exploitative to earn the money to pay you. The chain eventually will make its way back to the extraction of natural resources. It isn't possible to turn a profit without exploitation.

Do we really not care that we have burned up an unfathomable amount of precious, irreplaceable fossil fuels to prop up our industrial economy? We should be worshipping fossil fuels, and using them as sparingly as possibly, not frivolously wasting them.

Until we have an economy that doesn't rely on unsustainable extraction, it's hard to see any form of wealth creation as positive sum.

Basically a tier for global brands that manage multiple regional accounts and need top level support. Which I'm sure already exists informally like all B2B SaaS sites that have listed monthly fees where big accounts are handled personally.

But more to your point I think there should be a paid bracket below that tier of global mega corps which is formalized and public. At least for transparency and marketing reasons.

I think a cheap piano is probably a false economy. It’ll likely have poor sound quality, loose keys, that sort of thing. (I’m sure there are hidden gems to be found at affordable prices but I never have.)

For the same price as a bad piano, you can get a really good digital one that’ll sound and feel great, and won’t need any maintenance. You’ll be able to use headphones, which you’ll definitely want to do if somebody is learning, and it’ll be much easier to record if you ever want to do that.

Both the sound and feel of mid-range digital pianos these days tends to be excellent, very close to the real thing. Look for “weighted keys”, that’s the key feature. You miss some of the richness of the sound and some of the feel of the vibrations but that’s about it.

Having said all that, if I could afford and justify a good-quality real piano, I’d get a real one. But only good quality.

Yes, I agree. Those MAGA republicans who are Bay Area nudity activists, living in homes with BLM stickers, LGBT Pride flags, anti-capitalism bumper stickers, and “Berkeley Stands United Against Hate" signs in the windows are very dangerous, and there's no telling who they'll attack next.
That's clearly incorrect. 43% of Americans think global warming will pose a serious threat in their lifetime[1]. If they could just "vote with their dollars" then the US would have seen immense changes in renewable energy and EVs in the past 20 years.

There are 3 factors:

Market forces make it extremely difficult to create large change at the personal level. You can't crowdfund grid-scale renewables. Even if you have the option to pay extra for renewable power, it does almost nothing- renewable power has zero marginal cost, so it will always be sold anyway. Your impact on how much supply is built is marginal, unless you can pool your money into a huge fund, which is not a program that exists, because people instead want to take advantage of existing political processes, but unfortunately...

Political forces make it extremely difficult to create even small changes. 30% of Massachusetts voted for Trump. Every state has a relatively high proportion of conservatives, and our political systems are all designed to make compromise very difficult. At its absolute worst, in the US congress, only 2 bills per year can be passed without a supermajority, due to budget reconciliation. Surprise, not much gets done.

Finally, 30-40% of the US just flat out thinks its bullshit and are against it on principle. Many of them are quite happy to actively fight against the majority, and it's spectacularly easy for them to do so. Not being wasteful is in fact much harder than being wasteful, so one asshole can wipe out the careful effort of many good people.

Yeah I am finding this too. Open the camera and it switches lenses almost 100% of the time. So the image shifts within a second. Just a bit jarring and very un-apple.
I hadn't noticed that, but it is interesting yeah. I have to assume cultural differences must play a role here. I don't know Chinese culture; perhaps it's more modest? Perhaps they'd find celebration in mission control untimely? Perhaps putting things in space is jut not as fundamental to Chinese culture, so people there treat it more like "just a job"?

The USA is a nation built by explorers that colonized frontier after frontier, and the space race is a legendary two decades where they explored the final one, pulled ahead of the USSR "not because it was easy but because it was hard", planted a flag in the Moon beating their nemesis in the process, and overall reaffirmed in their ethos this mythical American exceptionalism that's so often talked about. I think space still carries this mysticism to it in the USA; there's a lot of badass jobs out there, but none quite as badass as being an astronaut. There's a lot of hard jobs that require incredible planning and precision out there, but none quite like rocket science. There's a lot of science and engineering agencies, but none quite like NASA. All these have "cool" and/or "hero" status to them in the USA psyche.

Hollywood has certainly spread this sort of sentiment around the world (especially the "Westen" world), but I wonder how true this is in China. I will say though, there's a lot of jobs that don't awaken strong passions that are still done very well in the USA, so I can only imagine, even if they're not jumping up in elation, it'd still be possible for the Chinese to be at least competitive with the USA on matters of space. As an aside, I also wonder what makes Chinese people feel that pride, celebrate that brotherhood and passion, and if they perhaps thinks it's weird that the USA doesn't feeling the same way about whatever that is.
Non-single level stores are copy-on-demand. Typically, a process runs a program by starting with an empty address space and mapping the executable code into that space. The program is started, the first instruction fetched; the address space is empty a page fault occurs and the page is copied in. If the page is modified, that is local to the process and the disk image is unchanged. Each process has its own copy of writable pages.

With single level store, the program pages are mapped in, not copied. Writing to the page alters the disk image. All processes running the same program share the memory pages.
Not quite, subinterpreters can contain multiple threads each. But you're right in that if you limit yourself to one thread per subinterpreter, then you should be able to get good multicore scaling that way, when more fully fleshed out subinterpreters arrive in 3.12. The trick then becomes how to efficiently communicate between them. Interesting times ahead.
I’m confused by the cache graphs: it looks like the direct-mapped cache has multiple lines drawn from a single cache line to different blocks in main memory.

From what I understand, a hardware cache wouldn’t store a line multiple times in main memory.

My other favorite is the Really Nice Images plugin for Lightroom. Very pleasing results on my Nikon Z6 RAW files--better to me than Apple's iPhone processing--by essentially just clicking the filter you want and adjusting a strength slider.
Sometimes 'contact us' for pricing is just a way to get potential customers to talk.

My company has standard pricing for all offerings (including cloud operation and support services) but we have said 'Contact Us' for years. The reason: we have a better chance of closing if we actually interact with prospects. We don't charge more for the privilege.

Just $0.02 from my personal experience.
I get that this site didn't just appear. You had to put some work into it. I like it. BTW, I applaud you for not having to force users to create an account just to test it.

I did a few images and it was interesting. I suspect, if I pick the right background and and the right images then this would be very handy at scale. As a solution, besides how it's accomplished, the tech, how does this differ from using GIMP's API to merge two images? I guess that's what I'm missing.
Most Nokia phones around the time of The Matrix film could do this.
The best rule I've learned is that the best camera you have is the one you have with you right now. Doesn't matter if you have a $2k+ camera body with a $5k lens sitting at home while you look at the photo op in front of you so you've used your mobile device instead. You at least have the picture that unless you've really messed it up, is better than no picture.
What's even worse is the poster didn't realize this obvious rebuttal existed.

And I'm with you, I actually dislike the word "externalities", it smacks of calling employees "resources".
I remember the same question being asked about Escalades 20 years ago. Nothing changes.
I was being brief above. I agree with you, but allow me to elaborate: I see refactoring as one step in changing code to accommodate new requirements. The refactoring is caused by the changing requirement, but isn't enough by itself to fulfil the new requirement.

> improve the quality without changing the behavior

IMO, quality cannot be judged without reference to requirements, except in extreme cases. Within a broad range of "code that doesn't make your eyes bleed", comparing one approach to another is difficult to do without reference to how it specifically fulfils the requirements. When requirements change, they may reveal that your existing code doesn't fulfil them well, or doesn't easily generalise, can't be reused, etc.

So when you need to change the code, it may first be necessary to do some refactoring. But refactoring without a prompt, without new knowledge entering via changed requirements, is just fiddling with aesthetics.
Yeah the label helps to understand your own condition.
I don't know much about Vine, but anecdotally I have ended up spending way too much time on YouTube reels, and have also now been drawn into the equivalent on Facebook, whatever that's called, and I barely use FB. So I don't think the super short form video market is a winner takes all one by any means.

On the contrary there's plenty of room for genuine innovation in this space. For example FB short form videos don't have a dislike button, so I have no way to guide the algorithm, and YouTube reels seems to zero in on some local maximum (in my case, game of thrones and golf videos). There's so much room for improvement in this space.
Copyright exists to incentivize authors, artists, scientists, etc. to create original works by providing a temporary monopoly.

The arguments suggesting that people shouldn't benefit from their work on an individual level, and pointing to music piracy as an example of why we shouldn't try, strike me as arguments for general inaction and fatalism. Not sure what the goal is, there...
Federation didn't drive people to GMail. A modern interface and someone building on top of the protocol did.
Capturing raw on iPhone in a low-light situation shows you just how far the sensors have to come if you aren't throwing the whole bag of software magic at it, in my experience.

It's useful for cases of "you're noise reduction is fucking with my texture" in decent lighting or similar, but in lower light I haven't found it to be a worthwhile tradeoff.
Is that really surprising considering how much more useful petroleum is than Apple's products?
I don't think the difference in the key action has much to do with appropriateness of repertoire. Most top tier pianos will have a similar feeling action if their regulation were all attended to by a top tier technician.

The construction, however, does have a lot to do with how repertoire sounds. Bosendorfers and their all-spruce construction causes more warmth and resonance, useful for traditionally played baroque music, but can lead to a blurriness in romantic (i.e., Chopin-era) music. Contrast with a Fazioli or Steinway which have a little bit of a tighter tone due to their hard rim cases.

Well, they now have your phone number.
Barrel shifters are huge in the context of small CPUs (especially on FPGA's). To do a barrel shift, you need (input size) * (shift size) LUTs, as you need that amount of "stages". That means 32*5=160 on RV32, as you can shift by 2^5 bits.

OP's CPU takes up around 400 LUTs. Since a 2:1 mux takes up 1 LUT (although it seems the numbers are for a LUT6-based device, which can take a 4:1 mux, so maybe that can make the amount a bit lower?), you would add 160 LUTs. That's quite a lot.

This has always been the bullshit story Twitter tells itself about the blue check. In reality, the value of the check has practically nothing to do with verifying identities, and everything to do with conferring status on people "notable" enough to qualify. The energy source for that status is, in fact, people like King, Swift, LeBron, Obama (and Trump), J. Lo and Jimmy Fallon; Twitter trades off the idea that the check puts its users in the same status tier as those celebrities.

How you know this is, there's a huge population of well-followed Twitter accounts without blue checks, and identity verification controversies virtually never occur. If you found a non-checked 50k-follower account tomorrow and tried to spoof them with a fake account, you'd get shouted down quickly enough that it wouldn't be worth the effort.

My point, again, is that the "verification" part of this is horseshit. It's not the value. It's not why anyone cares about the checks. The checks are endorsements of popularity and importance, and that's all they are.

Diluting that value (to zero, as seems to be the Twitter Blue plan) probably won't chase many celebs off the platform. Why would they care? Twitter isn't doing them any real favors; it's rather the opposite. But it'll lay bare the real dynamics of those stupid blue checkmarks. That might be a positive development for Twitter! But it's not going to make blue checks the next Bored Apes.

(Again: who knows? Maybe a critical mass of Twitter randos will pay for Twitter bling. Weirder things have happened; see apes, above.)
> To be more precise: the laws of physics and chemistry will never allow to pull CO2 from the atmosphere in an energy efficient way

I see. Now that is a big difference. I don’t know enough to tell if you are right.

> it's probably better to just use regular fuel

Maybe. There is one reason why spacex might still do it even if it is less energy efficient.

Their mars plan depends on in-situ resource extraction. If they can’t generate fuel on mars they can’t send their rockets back.

This will be a very hard technological challenge. If they can find a path to derisk their co2->methan plants here on earth it would be worth doing it even if it costs them money. They have to master the tech anyway.

Now clearly doing the conversion here on earth is not the same deal as doing it on mars. The atmosphere is quite different as a start. I don’t know enough to tell how much this matters. Maybe they can just tweek some process parameters and make a machine which works here on earth and on mars “sameish” enough that it helps with learning. Maybe they can process the exhaust of some industrial process into a kind of “martian atmosphere” analogue close enough that they can learn from that.

They will want to test their ISRU equipment before heading to mars. And they want to it eventually in large enough scale that the output can power their rockets back. It stands to reason that even their tests must be at a certain point on a huge scale. So why not fill the methane they get from the testing into their rockets at that point here on Earth too?

Cisco was legendary around here (20+ years ago when I was around networking). They would win almost every tender, often with quotes below cost if that is what it took. And everyone in the know knew you would be paying much, much more over the next few years with support costs, renewals, etc. The first hit is free.
There's no meaningful difference between what you are describing and advertising.
>But you can't choose your window decorations, themes, desktop panels independently anymore and get a somewhat matching look and feel. It's only Gnome island, KDE/Plasma island, and hacker-minimalist island.

Maybe take that as an indication those "spirits" are at odds and can't be reconciled? You can't have a system that's fully stable and predictable but also lets you swap out any component at a moment's notice to some unsupported third party thing. You either pick one or the other. In my opinion Linux has only ever been really worth it for companies willing to employ developers to work on it; you don't get any of that customization for free. At one point Linux companies were experimenting with things like desktop panels but then the market changed, they stopped and the money dried up. That's what happens.
