As a lifetime game developer publisher, I am going to disagree. I feel like half my career people have been trying to push streamed games. In the oldie days it was a company called OnLive. Then it was a bunch of other services including Stadia, Luna etc.

Game developers don't want this. Gamers generally don't prefer it either, or they can be sold on the idea but consistently reject the experience. Why is this such a thing? It's because business people know that if they can convert game buyers into people who pay for streaming service they can play gate keeper and extract all the surplus value. That's not a priority for me!
In practice, the former is mostly a word conservatives use to attack the latter. The words used have changed since politicians are less likely to run scared of being called “liberal” but the sides have not.
Why are 'pressurized' cells needed, vs having water not flow downwards when the cell undermeath is full? Does this help to add a slosh effect?
Key phrase: "in some sense". I mean clearly, yes, it looks fluid-ish to a layman, so in some sense it does simulate a fluid.

But as soon as you dive into a tiny bit of detail, no, this violates those equations at basically every iteration.

Covid-19 Likely Originated with Lab Leak, Energy Department Finds in New Report
The error handling is atrocious. The language isn‘t just untyped - everything that‘s not defined is symbolic, and builtins will silently operate on symbolic expessions even if you don‘t expect them to. Consider this:

myfunc[x_] := {2*x, 3*x};
myfnuc[5][[1]]

Without the 'fnuc' typo, this would create the list {10, 15} and take the first part, giving 10. With the typo, it returns 5 without warning. Why? myfnuc[5] is now treated symbolically, and the first part/argument is 5.

A similar problem comes from functions like Integrate, which become symbolic when Mathematica doesn‘t find a solution. So instead of a number, you might randomly get a symbolic expression. If you were trying to do a complicated computation with the result, this might now produce a symbolic result which is too big to fit your memory, filling up all RAM before the Mathematica kernel crashes.
It does speak to a lack of imagination, doesn't it? The impulse to alter these works maybe even suggests a lack of confidence in your own ideas.
Interested to see how the page size issues are worked out. Coming down on one side or the other seems detrimental. I've watched some of marcan/lina's work on GPU stuff, but I haven't heard their vision for resolving those issues yet.
This is not about streaming a game running on a remote machine for personal use. It's about streaming a recording of you playing and commentating to viewers. This is a big part of modern gaming culture that video game producers are not optimizing for. Some of the best free advertisement you can get for a game you develop is having a popular Twitch or YouTube streamer play it for their audience. It makes sense for all parties involved to support this workflow.

https://github.com/python/typeshed is Python's equivalent of DefinitelyTyped. I'm not 100% sure why it's not more of a popular thing the way DefinitelyTyped is; I think there might, to some extent, be different attitudes around the appropriateness of having third-party typings for packages, when the actual maintainer of the package isn't interested in providing first-party ones.

This is a whole lotta words and graphics to explain something that literally takes two sentences:

Phobos orbits Mars faster than Mars rotates itself, while Deimos rotates slower than Mars. Thus from the ground their apparent motion is opposing in the sky; Deimos rises in the east and sets in the west, while Phobos does the opposite.

I'm an atheist and I think that murder is bad despite not believing in the religious sanctity of life. I'd have trouble with full-term abortions of healthy, viable babies.

Funnily enough, the point of OKRs is to provide a framework for communication, planning, and accountability.

Particularly the last 2. Most companies, if they actually sit down and talk through their objectives honestly, and then get buy-in from the stakeholders and doers on the actual KRs and initiatives, will be forced to face and figure out the big issues in communication and accountability, at least by the time you have done OKRs for a year or so (your third or fourth planning cycle typically starts to feel like you have the hang of it).

And writing down your main goals ahead of time, with a clear owner, then reviewing after, is a good planning and accountability framework, no matter what name you give it.

As with anything good, there is snake oil to be had, and idiots will do OKRs wrong like they do everything else wrong. But I think it’s a useful tool in the hands of a competent and well-run company, particularly for startups that are getting into the stage where they need to start planning seriously, and don’t have an existing framework, say around 25-50 people.

If you actually look for good games and don't just play the latest AAA games made by big companies, you'll realize there's still good games out there
Mailing lists and RSS feeds don't incentivize me to compulsively check them so that the important updates I care about aren't buried under a 47-post rant about why I should be angry about something in the news or hidden by an algorithm because it thinks I'm more likely to engage with a bunch of memes.

Maybe it works if you only follow low-traffic announcement accounts, but when I was actively using Twitter I found that I regularly missed posts like that because they either didn't get engagement (algo timeline) or were posted when I wasn't paying attention (chrono timeline). I understand that a lot of projects have chosen to rely on social media for that kind of news for various reasons, but it's not a good situation.
A Big no I guess!
> Never to be challenged again. In fact that's the point of why so many people go there right?

No. Some people don't view social media as "debate club". We never signed up for debate club. I personally signed up for Twitter at a software developer conference, and I used Twitter to meet other software developers, social network, and exchange information related to tech. I had no interest in debating politics or whatever. Twitter is possibly the worst possible place in the world to debate politics, given its format.

It's a weird assumption that Twitter is the best or only possible place to have your ideas challenged. Go to school. Ready a book. Talk with people you know. Tweeting sound bites at rando strangers typically goes nowhere fast.
Some people choose to not say “no” and we encourage that, okay?

This analogy implies that all other tools are 1000% safer, but they are not. In C it’s like pointing to a dusty corner behind a table in a room full of dirt.

When was the last time you did “cut your arm” with goto specifically? What’s the count and time ratio to other issues? Were these also addressed as taboo or left as “experience earned”? Gotophobia in its largest part is just a stupid meme with no real world data.
Back in the day Freud noted that sadists felt that their victims deserved to suffer and felt that they were doing God's work in bringing them to justice.

In the online space it's easy to imagine that people with the wrong politics or that are drawn to NFTs and ChatGPT like moths to a flame out of ignorance and sloth are pissing in the pool and need to be brought to justice too.

> but IMO Zoom, Google Meet, Jitsi, etc. aren't a ton better at streaming text than it looks like Twitch is from TFA

Come to think of it, it's a little bonkers that sharing a desktop over a meeting doesn't leverage any of the stuff that is in remote desktop and similar protocols - why send screenshots of text when viewer's PCs are capable of rendering the same text? I suppose the status quo is easier to implement but there'd be a measurable improvement in text quality and bandwidth usage if a different approach were taken.
Could anybody provide more context about the issue regarding the page size?
They only gave Amazon as an example. I was suggesting the other three much larger corporations that it did not give as examples that I'd like to see covered.

My general understanding is that Romeo and Juliet has come to mean essentially the opposite to people today from the original intent of the story. They are described as star crossed lovers which used to essentially mean it was a bad idea for them to get together and now we think it means fate and other people are keeping apart two people who belong together. It was a story about two foolish youth and their feuding families making stupid choices, a kind of warning of what not to do. Now, we think it's about true love or some nonsense.
Sure, this was clear to me too. My question was not so much about the advantages of browser games but rather if they actually have a market.

And speaking of that: what are the main monetization schemes? Are browser games sold like other games? Or are they mostly ad-based like other web content?
Not to be pander, but I wonder if anyone has worked on a translation of this to Rust.
Ask HN: How do you prevent nerve injuries from computer work?
Hello HN,

Long hours developer for ~8 years here. And "computer worker" for maybe 15 years.

So, as for many of you I guess; fingers, hands and wrists are indispensable and amazing tools.

Maybe like some of you as well, I sometimes get strange feelings (tickling, tingling, sometimes pain, not sure of the proper words) in my fingers, wrist, elbows, nerves. And it scares me.

Have you found good and sound exercises, habits, or things to do to prevent injuries?

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and such scare the shit out of me!

It's literally not a process yet you keep referring to it as one.
I and most people my age in Eastern Europe learned English in the '90s only from American video games and movies instead of French despite us being culturally and geographically closer to France that the US.

If France wanted to export its culture abroad then it should invest in making some kick-ass games and movies, not breed more.

US successfully exported its culture here because it made the best entertainment in the world and we couldn't get enough of it, not because it was a numerous population.

Not as well as more computationally expensive algorithms that take more frames/wider areas into account.

And as the blog mentions, noise "tricks" the encoder into blowing its bitrate budget on preserving noise that looks like detail, instead of something more useful.
Isn’t the article talking about live streaming like on Twitch? As opposed to game streaming over a system like Stadia
Equally bizarre is OPs submission history. To be considered an opposition party, it should be the second largest party in number of seats in either of the houses. Also, to get formally recognized, it should at least have 10% of house strength. AAP does not meets any of those criterion, hence it does not qualifies as an opposition party, and the guy who got arrested as an opposition leader.

I’ll make sure to pull that one out next time someone tells me we have to implement agile in our origination. Ideally we could avoid making any changes at all.
It would be nice to have, but probably too much dev/design/QA effort for the payoff. Then you have to consider the confusion of presenting two different appearances of the game to the audience.

This seems like it should be solved by streaming services, not game developers.
Only AV1 has this, and its a pretty niche feature at the moment.

And a "noise buffer" is an interesting concept. I dunno if any other applications try to do this with AV1, or if thats even possible without major hacks (as its noise synthesis is basically designed for internal use).

Earth has many artificial satellites that do that.
Education? Been there, done that, a lot of it, a bit too much, really. So, I'll comment:

The idea of the study groups getting the participants polished on the social aspects of life sounds good.

For STEM, let's see: First, here at Hacker News, what fraction of the readers got good at writing code in C/C++ before they had any formal classroom instruction from an established education system, high school, college, etc.? I anticipate, a big fraction.

Lesson: In learning C/C++, and a lot of closely related topics, say, quick sort, maybe matrix inversion, the beginnings of using relational data base as "the key, the whole key, nothing but the key", some of the details of virtual memory as Zuck spouted out as he walked out of class in the movie The Social Network, commonly that learning has been done by people mostly on their own.

Next, a college prof has to keep up and hopefully push ahead, but there's essentially no formal education classroom instruction for doing that. So, the prof has to do that on his (her, here and below) own.

Lesson: Self teaching is fundamental right to the top of the education system. Soooo, self teaching is not incidental, strange, etc.

For graduate study in the STEM fields, been there, done that. Fact of life: The university, department, profs, etc. can provide a lot of guidance and direction, often crucial since otherwise a student might waste time wandering in poor directions, but, bluntly, the student needs lots of hours of self study outside of class.

Lesson: Soooo, even in a program in formal education, a lot of self teaching is crucial.

Broadly in US society, there is a lot of self learning: E.g., a good chef who has a terrific lasagna, pizza, Italian rum cake, coconut cream pie, ..., likely learned how to do that mostly on their own or, say, from an employer who learned it on their own, likely not from some formal classroom education. Same for lots of jobs -- auto repair, plumbing, roofing, brick laying, many aspects of farming, parenting, ....

Lesson: Self teaching is crucial in our whole society, and a lot of people are good at it.

If you can't afford one at new prices, you can always pick them up for a fraction of that 2-3yrs after release, and still get a solid few years of supported use out of them at that point.

> That's important in places like bodyshops and non-software business where no self-respecting engineer with options would want to work, and places where monotonous quality matters more than brilliance. Keep em as far as I'm concerned.

Based on my experience that is happening in a lot more places than what you listed. Doesn’t help that price tag of experienced devs pushed dramatically upwards in the recent years

It's an extremely great benefit, but honestly, the Raspberry Pi's are so slow, it can make for a difficult experience.
TCL produced Blackberry-branded devices for a few years, but they stopped a few years ago. Blackberry is still an independent company doing other things (mostly in the enterprise security space I think)
At my corner, they license out Creative Suite and moan about the cost every year. So many folks using it for basic video cutting/transitions. I've recommended Blender - which is approved - over and over, but it falls on deaf ears. This is the same thing. Great open-source application that does what people want. We don't just need "enterprise support" for open-source applications, we also need enterprise training. I wish a part of the gov were dedicated to supporting open-source and acting as good sumaritan liaisons to these projects.

>Ostensibly the first amendment's establishment cause prevents Congress from passing laws that are overly religious, although that doesn't entirely stop them from, say, passing the Defense of Marriage Act

No, it does not. The first amendment establishes freedom of religion, and prohibits state-sponsored religion. (The phrase "separation of church and state" is found nowhere in the Constitution.) As the Constitution was originally interpreted, it only applied to the federal government; individual US states had state-sponsored churches into the 19th century.

>or attempting to explicitly opt out churches from COVID restrictions.

This is based on the first amendment's guarantee of freedom of religion. This is why churches, for example, don't pay taxes.

In any case, this is immaterial to the Trump immigration bans. The US president has enormous latitude over who is admitted into the country. <https://np.reddit.com/r/bestof/comments/4vv1rc/utmwnn_explai...>

I deeply disagree.

If you have a team of quality people but they're all running around in their own direction doing their uncoordinated thing, they add up to basically zero. While if they're all working towards the same thing in the same direction, their efforts reinforce each other so the whole is much greater than the sum of its parts.

The expertise of people on a team provides a ceiling for what they can accomplish, that's true. And so you need to make sure that if you've got a task to achieve by a certain date, that it's below their ceiling. The best manager can't raise that ceiling.

But you still absolutely need to manage them in order for them to get anywhere even close to that ceiling. And to go back to your sports metaphor, when an amazing coach replaces a terrible one on a sports team, it's astonishing the difference it makes -- you almost can't believe it's the same team. It's astonishing what happens when a sports team plays "as one" instead of each player doing their own thing no matter how great they are. But that simply doesn't happen organically. It requires a coach, the same as a great team of employees doesn't get there without a great manager.

So ultimately it's not that either matters more than the other. You need both individual expertise and management. Think of the total resulting effectiveness as a multiplication of those two values.

Computers in general too.
From wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OKR)

> Key results should be measurable, either on a 0–100% scale or with any numerical value (e.g. count, dollar amount, or percentage) that can be used by planners and decision makers to determine whether those involved in working towards the key result have been successful. There should be no opportunity for "grey area" when defining a key result.

In a lot of places that use "OKRs" the metric is something non-specific, like "get more users" or "have a great UX". This means your bonus now depends on politics, instead of a defined metric of success. When the metrics are clearly defined, work can be a pleasure.
