Some people think foundational progress in modern Physics stopped since 1973, and possibly one of the reasons is related to this, and/or related to the way academia is structured.

I'm not endorsing this article/argument, but he makes this argument:
https://lasttheory.com/article/why-has-there-been-no-progres...
Where I used to live, a little north of Glasgow but a little south of Stirling, there was a big flat bit of low-lying ground where a modern housing estate was built, with a nice little stream at the bottom.

The ground was flat because it was the bottom of a loch drained in the 1500s, by a culvert to a river a few miles away.

All the rubbish that people threw from their cars washed down the stream, into the wetlands that it flowed through, and eventually began to gunk up the culvert. The wetlands got bigger, the stream got deeper, and by the 1970s the housing scheme had a nice little pond instead of a stream, and cracks in every foundation.

It's not as bad as the proposed housing scheme further along the valley, where I have a photo (which I can't find just at the moment, sorry) of the developer's 4m tall sign boards just barely sticking out of a pond the size of the entire fenced-off bit.

Don't drain wetlands then build on them, folks. Geology will always win against you.
One rationale could be that people commonly fill up their "Watch Later" lists with hundreds of videos which they do find interesting, but ultimately forget about and never watch.
> The Navy began listening for the Titan almost as soon as the sub lost communications, according to a U.S. defense official. Shortly after its disappearance, the U.S. system detected what it suspected was the sound of an implosion near the debris site discovered Thursday and reported its findings to the commander on site, U.S. defense officials said.

I think the journalist may have assumed the wrong sequence of events. This makes it look as though the Navy wasn't recording until after the sub lost comms. That would mean that the implosion actually occurred some time after loss of contact.

>> The U.S. Navy conducted an analysis of acoustic data and detected an anomaly consistent with an implosion or explosion in the general vicinity of where the Titan submersible was operating when communications were lost,

If this is the statement issued (that the journalist then "dumbed down" wrongly), then after comms was lost they started analyzing recorded data that was being recorded circa when contact was lost, which would make more sense.
Speed of light is the lower bound for network latency but actual internet latency also significantly affected by delays added by network equipment (routers/switches). Typically the bigger distance the more routers there are in between so this delay is also proportional to the distance. And sometimes there are almost saturated channels so there is a significant queuing delay for packets waiting to be sent. RTT AU <-> US will be higher than RTT for most pairs inside the US but RTT for the same distance within the US can vary more than 3x depending on exact network infrastructure on the way.
Does anyone know if it would be possible to use TensorFlow OCR in TFjs?
Sounds like this should be possible. However, there are tons of examples for TFjs but none of them for text recognition / OCR
You will filter syscalls by filename anyway.

Try `strace|grep open` on any program, and you will be spammed with a number of shared libraries. You need to filter them out anyway.

With an application to cryonics and transplantology. Transplant handling would be so much easier if the organs could be held on ice safely for long time - a lot of organs are wasted because they cannot reach the destination, even if expensively air transported. Or there's no matching person to accept the organ at the moment.

As for cryonics, well, perhaps everyone frozen now is screwed because this tech cannot be applied retroactively heh.

I guess it's also true that not everyone wants to play a game where an Excel add-in is not available.

Please note, Excel is not a requirement to play EVE Online, it is only useful to have an add-in for some roles.

Further, for most popular games, Excel doesn't even make sense. Parent's request for more games to be more accessible to external tools like Excel is not a request to make Excel access your CoD game state, don't be dense.
I can't argue with that actually, I just think there is a time and place for that introspective reflection.

Also true in reverse: lead poisoning is sufficient even without all the other inequities.

No text mode, and no console is a step back.

We’ve built https://GitHub.com/tierrun/tier with a local sidecar that can talk directly to stripe to help simplify situations like this.

I think calling yourself emperor was all the rage at the time.

Prior to Napoleon and the dissolution of the HRE the Roman Empire was sort of still viewed as single and indivisible, it wasn’t a exactly a generic title (well.. at most there could be two legitimate ones).

But now you had the Emperor of the French, Emperor of Austria, Russia (prior to that), so why not Brazil? Since you’re establishing a new state anyway might as well pick the best available title.
Amazon is large. One would hope that the two internal organizational units would have sufficient separation so as to allow normal operations to continue between affiliate-linking and life-ruining. And, come to think of it, door-unlocking.

Sadly, Aurelia didn't quite catch on like other options. But, it's funny when you look at libraries like Svelte, many of their touted features like reactivity not only existed in Aurelia, but in Durandal before it. I think it comes with age. I'm in my mid-thirties now, so I just use what I want to use that gets results. But I remember being young and hungry as a developer in my twenties, you used what everyone else used because of job prospects.

I think Aurelia 2 still has the potential to make a comeback. Maybe not popular like React or Vue, but still. The beta has been quite good. It just needs more awareness.
The folks developing science in the Enlightnement era were multidisciplinary scholars and I wouldn't even dare to call their writings "opinions". I'm saying this to underline the contrast with the Regular Joe parroting something they heard on a dodgy YouTube channel as their "same value opinion". So I'm sorry but I cannot agree with you: experts were always the (only) ones treasured, and if that comforts you, know that anybody can become an expert if they get to study the entire domain they claim experience. But again no, parroting an idea heard somewhere doesn't make anybody an expert deserving of respect.
There are some tricks with cryoprotectants and rarely used cryopreserving protein, but triggering that and not damaging cells is an active field of research.
There’s nothing ironic about it, much of cyberpunk is an exploration of the totalitarian nature of hypercorporatism.

It’s also not a variant of communism: first, in the Marxist-Leninist interpretation the purpose of the single party is expression of and progress towards the dictature of the proletariat, the single-party state is not communist (they claim socialism instead) and the ultimate goal is self-abolition (turns out all other issues aside it’s difficult to make such a system abolish itself).

Second, Libertarian Marxist as well as Trotskyists oppose the use of a transitional one-party state and “democratic centralism”.

My point was just that this is nothing new. It's always been the case that you could be fired for certain things that you did in your private time (e.g., historically, being gay). This is because what you do outside of work can affect the reputation of your employer. Within legal limits your employer has the right to freedom of association (just as you do).
That's why I'm so happy Yuka exists. It's an app that scans barcodes of foodstuffs or cosmetics, and gives you an easy and clear scoring of the stuff inside them based on how good are they for you and for the planet (e.g. too much sugar, lots of protein, high impact on the environment, local or not, additives, etc.).

Of course it doesn't work on stuff without barcodes like vegetables and fruit, meat bought fresh, etc. but still it's extremely helpful and useful.

I believe a lot of this is leached from packaging, not even put directly in the food. How about we stop using plastic foil, foil laminated paper and plastic trays for everything? Glass was fine, plain paper was fine, waxed paper was fine, even non-laminated cans are fine.
If you attempt to use a credit card that you haven't used in years, the bank will similarly ask you to verify your identity. I don't think it's weird that unused valuable accounts need re-identification when you start to use them again.

I don't mind anti-spam measures in cases which are common spam techniques. Hijacking unused accounts is common enough to warrant an approach like this.
that's definitely not communism.

Some sort of capitalist-imperialism, maybe, but definitely not communism.

you can generate an SDF from a mesh with Polygonjs ( https://polygonjs.com ). Here is an example scene ( https://polygonjs.com/examples/bynode:mat:raymarchingbuilder... ).

It won't generate a function, though. Instead it creates a 3D texture which is used inside the raymarching material. In my experience this is much more performant, and also art-directable.

Having interacted with "poor" people recently way more than I have in the past. I realized that one very quickly adapts and forgets that life below a certain level of "income" is indeed possible.

It's made me look at all the places in my life where all that "money" is being sucked away from me. Silly examples like that convenient 4$ Starbucks coffee on the way to work, or at the ground floor of your office building. It's easy, simple, delicious, and just a tap of a card to get. But poor people aren't able to do this, heck, they forego such things and simply drink water. Apply this kind of thing to a myriad of things that happen daily (and monthly as they come off your bank account).
> I would say that today it's almost too easy to be allowed to bring up your own theories

And there it is. Too easy. If only it weren't quite so easy, right? Then those who actually are "in the know" wouldn't have to deal with the consequences of the masses daring to use their own reason.

Your comment is a perfect example of the mindset I described.
DeArrow is made by the same person that made SponsorBlock. It's about the highest quality of user-uploaded content, and users mark the following: sponsors, promotions, exclusive access, subscribe callouts, video highlights, intermission, credits, recaps, jokes, as well as create custom chapters.

Not only is the quality extremely high, users self-regulate: a user submission is first spread to a few random users to see if they approve of it, then more, until it spread throughout. So, bad submissions will go out the window. Are there some submissions like highlights that are just "good enough" ? Yes. Does it need to be perfect ? Absolutely not. Does it need to run through a black box of an AI model that's going to upload 5% of the time absolute crap ? Never.

User submissions will always be better than an LLM (which isn't even appropriate for the context of a video.)
OpenAI adds unsolicited nudity to results.

For example, submitting "centaurs, relaxing in a sauna" to https://open.ai/images regurgitates porn (with people, not centaurs).
Don't really see how that enters the equation.
Normal citizens have no obligation to keep the secrets of any government organisation. It is the person who holds security clearance that leaks the document that commits a crime, whereas journalists have a constitutionally protected right to publish. It's not sleazy, and is part of a healthy system that holds governments to account.

The love of Romeo and Juliet is certainly more mature than say Othello and Desdemona, or Hamlet and Ophelia, or Antony and Cleopatra. So I think “childish” is coming from prejudice, not from the play itself.

Btw the age of Romeo is never stated. Juliet is very young, but her parents are consistently depicted as much more childish and immature.

You generally should not drink coffee cca 6 hours before going to sleep, there is no way diuretic effect still persist during your sleep if you adhere to this simple principle.

If you already got addicted, or just self-curing some other problems with high doses of coffee, maybe attack those problems head-first. Coffee is really not source of your issues in this case.

If we view it from perspective of addiction, then sugar should be banned in all forms first and foremost, then lets start talking about relatively mild stuff like caffeine. And all this is long after alcohol and all nicotine products are long banned. We know already how well that works, right.
I think that’s mostly theoretical. There’s a lot of hardware on long connections that adds latency. The signal also may take fairly large detours (in some cases, it may even hop via a geosynchronous satellite. That adds about 70.000km to a trip, and another 70.000 for the return signal. For most users that is a thing of the past, though)

For example, when I ping microsoft.com, I get something around 100ms (Aside: what does that time mean? Round-trip or one way? I read a few man pages for ping, but couldn’t find out)

There also is the weirdness that, when pinging apple.com or google.com I get about 6 ms. They must be playing tricks with DNS.

I don't think the hardware or software are mainstream enough to make it work yet sadly.

There are ARM CPUs available, but they are mostly for servers or very low end devices, there's not a lot in the pro laptop market, and even if a low-end server chip could be repurposed, I don't know if the brand recognition would work, customers know AMD and Intel and what they're getting in terms of performance at different specs. That all works differently with ARM.

And then on the software side, Windows support seems... partial? Linux support is much better, but selling a laptop with only Linux as an option is a big step down in available market, and even Linux struggles with compatibility sometimes.

Apple's ARM chips are the only mainstream laptop/desktop class chips, but that's a completely distinct software and hardware ecosystem that neither Framework nor anyone else have access to.

Italic and Celtic languages are probably more closely related to each other than to any other branch of IE languages.

I also have the impression that the Romans viewed the Celts as more closely related to them both linguistically and culturally than almost any other group. Which is possibly one of the reasons why Gaul adopted Latin so rapidly.
