I wouldn't sleep on Sea of Thieves. It's not a multi-game franchise (yet?), but it's a "live service game" on interesting footing with Destiny, Overwatch, and others.

Also, the Fable franchise is on its way to return (from the Forza Horizon dev studio Playground Games).

(Plus Starfield, whatever is next in Elder Scrolls, whatever is next in Fallout, new games soon from Obsidian and inXile neither of which are currently using the franchises that made them most famous as both are trying to build new ones. That's a massive ownership over "Western" RPGs, lacking mostly "just" Bioware. [Microsoft tried to buy Bioware before EA did. That would have been a wild ride.])
I agree with what you're saying, but I meant more if the developers opened up an API a bit too much. They can close that up and make their client software more stable.

A massive expansion into new markets, an entire generation of new users, and lack of any meaningful competition due to the size of library and sheer cost to run such business profitably.

In the last 10 years, YouTube has expanded their partner program across the globe and reduced the requirements to become eligible to make money. They struck profit sharing deals with many traditional media companies many countries too that drove more people from those countries to the platform, which then drove views for organic users, which made being a "YouTuber" a viable career option in many new markets, which drove engagement, etc.

There is also no surprise that during the last 10 years there was an absolute explosion in the number of 1-14 year olds getting hooked on the platform. That cohort has almost infinite free time. Videos targeting 1-5 year olds literally have hundreds of millions of views. There are channels that regularly do 200M views per video just in tantalizing colors, music and shapes for that cohort alone. Then there is the 8-12 cohort, and the 13-17 cohort. YouTube only reports some of the 13+ numbers because of laws probably, but it's an everyday sight for me to see very young kids in trance staring at "YouTube Kids" videos while their parents do grocery or deal with guests, etc.

And finally, there is no YouTube competition. Facebook tried for a while, but they didn't make a dent. Twitch is for streaming, not video content. TikTok is the only competition YouTube sort of has, and it's still a different format/appeal. YouTube killed short content format a long time ago because they thought people leave YouTube too quickly if they load a page to play 20 second video. TikTok showed them that there is at least 1 billion people who are into that if the UX is right. But other than that, there is no YouTube alternative/competition because it's almost impossible to operate such thing profitably. In the last 10 years more and more people have come online. Video is a very important format, and YouTube has an absolute monopoly on it. Google can turn profit on YouTube now, while also controlling the entire online video market. No one else finds the ROI equation worth it because there is a very little chance they would dethrone YouTube, and it's very expensive and not at all profitable being a very distant #2.
I did this - that's part of the 2nd link. Problem is that it didn't work for me. I definitely did something wrong.
> Someone who took the trip before said they had to sign a waver which mentioned death multiple times.

Just nitpicking here but this is quite normal. Any somewhat physically involved commercially offered activity has waivers to sign that mention potential death and that absolve the business from responsibility. Gyms for example do this.

The Navy heard it as it happened. Apparently they were aware of the loss of communications nearly in real time.
I freely give out my information when I choose to use Facebook, Instagram, MySpace, google maps while logged into google, sweetgreen for ordering for pick up, Uber eats while ordering for delivery. There are myriad of cases where people choose to give out their personal information — and yes before you protest: I can live without having my Sweetgreen ready when I arrive (versus ordering at the terminal when I arrive) or without Uber delivering my meal (I can go to the restaurant).

I acknowledge there are cases where it’s effectively impossible in modern society, such as with giving out your info to get a cell phone, but believe by verbiage “freely giving out information” accounts for this.
You're absolutely right. The comedic relief scene is almost necessary to avoid us being stretched too taut after the previous. Thomas de Quincey has a great piece reflecting on the very same: http://www.shakespeare-online.com/plays/macbeth/knockingatga...

Well, not really. The written play is the actual Work. Shakespeare put his soul into writing every word in it. They are his instructions, a script for eternity.

That or he still thought it was safe but was scared regardless.

Even though everyone knows flying commercially is incredibly safe, lots of people are still anxious about it. Its not like this kid, or maybe any of the other customers, knew of any of the safety concerns and just thought it was as safe as flying.
Sad, maybe. Seems like one of the best ways to go. Respect.
I believe the term "sampling" was introduced with the Fairlight, which was digital.

Solar irradiance has been declining for 35 years. Which is one way we know it isn't the sun.

Also the troposphere is warming rapidly while the stratosphere is cooling. Which is only something you expect from greenhouse gas related warming.

Also night time temps are increasing faster than daytime temps. Another fingerprint of greenhouse gas induced warming.

Also the earth is hotter than it's been in 100,000 years and scientists predicted that greenhouse gasses would cause exactly this much warming with this level of greenhouse gasses 50 years ago well before it was obvious what was going to happen.

So yeah. Not the sun. Good question though.
> turning all organic matter to ash

Is this actually true? I see it being repeated everywhere but there is a lot of mass in a human body. Can 100 milliseconds of "ignition" (as you put it) really burn off all of that?
It is verbatim, Spanish from the 16th century. It doesn't sound right to a modern Spanish speaker.
I did read somewhere (I don't remember exactly where) that when there is an implosion at great depth the air in the submarine is compressed so quickly that anything flammable (specifically human bodies, plastics, etc) would burn up instantly. So it's a bit like the explosion of the fuel-air mixture in a diesel engine.
you'll also need moisture. so short of using it on a boat in the ocean 24/7 then you should be ok.
WASM is a specification. So when you compile to it, you compile to the specification. Any language runtime (be it JavaScript via V8, Go, or whatever) or language interop via compilation (Rust, C, C++) can interact with a WASM binary if their toolchain supports understanding it. Thats the key here. I can take my JS, compile it to WASM, and Rust can use it as a module because its compiler understands WASM (in simple terms).

This all requires a WASM runtime of course, no doubting that. However, the mere fact I can take two languages, compile one to WASM and use that as the module in that other language, is what I'm talking about.

And WASM compat is taking off pretty well so far. I admire Truffle's approach, it might prove to be long term better in solving this problem, because languages can move at the speed they want to move, and the interop story doesn't really change. Where as with WASM, you have to keep up with the WASM specification and runtimes, which could be a headache if not done in a community oriented, deliberate way.

All that is to say, its up the language toolchain to deal with compiling that language to WASM, but once its WASM, its portable
That makes sense. I guess I never thought anyone actually believed these things, any more than they “believed” in the logic of a video game. To me, it was always just something you learned, the way you learn a language or a national culture. It’s a means to achieve a certain end (directly: the role, indirectly: $), not a thing to be taken any more seriously than that.
Supercharging Nature to Suck Carbon from the Air

Interesting. But regardless of how you feel about the best method to address climate change, all of these ideas seem wide open to scammary. I mean they actually say this in the article: "Taxpayers or corporations funding the effort would have to trust researchers’ models. "

Wow. Reminds me of Crypto. Give me lots of money and trusti me.

And why does being the former CTO of meta give any particular credential on climate change? At least that's what the article suggests. Mike if you are on here it would be nice to know how computer science gives climate change expertise or if there's something else in your background that is not mentioned in wikipedia. https://en.m.wikipedia.org /wiki/Mike_Schroepfer

Occasionally, they will identify a particular MIL-STD (or MIL-SPEC) that the product supposedly complies with; whether or not there is any substance to this claim and whether or not, if you looked up the standard, it would have any bearing on suitability for the purpose the product is marketed for is a mixed bag.
From anecdotal evidence, the few search and rescue units I've been involved with (all non-technical volunteer units) have been overwhelming against charging subjects, at least as a general rule.

But the considerations for something like this are pretty much entirely different, risk to non-technical rescuers is pretty minimal and the costs are just gas and the time spent on what is essentially just an unplanned hike with some extra gear.
I agree the electronics could be better, but from what I am understanding, even if the electronics completely failed, they could mechanically safely return to the surface.

The carbon fiber seems to be the critical nail in the coffin.
Your intuition is spot on, carbon fiber is much better at tensile loads than compressive loads.

Tensile load capacity is pretty much the resin that keeps the fibers from moving.

The most I could find about the design

> The entire pressure vessel is comprised of two titanium hemispheres, two matching titanium interface rings, and the 142 cm (56") internal diameter, 2.4-m (100") long carbon fiber wound cylinder – the largest such device ever built for use in a manned submersible.

The OP article is in part about how people whom memorize things perform worse because their memory is incorrect, while people who understand things will spend more time making sense of a problem of solution instead of more quickly guessing part-blind.

Not-memorizing forces you to practice more and develop deeper intuition which helps you reconstruct info. Memorization is a side-effect or learning, not a cause.

Ask HN: Why most/all client HTML routers suck in iOS for swipe-back navigation
Most of the frameworks I used (svelte-kit/remix/nextjs) in IOS when navigating backwards either don't show the previous page (especially if it was scrolled) or lose scroll position. (sometimes they work but not on every visit, some race condition or like exists)
Without a client router with native navigation, everything looks fine.

I know. Clearly CO2 isn't a greenhouse gas and the planet isn't hotter than it's been in 100,000 years because Al Gore and Leonardo Decaprio are hypocrites. I know thats how I decide my priorities is by gauging the hypocrisy levels of celebrity activists.
I'm curious how many people consciously have something they "rely" on for news. Personally, I find news generally finds its way to me, and I don't deliberately seek it out (usually). Instead I have these bad habits I've developed, like where I open up HN without even thinking when my brain is seeking stimulation or looking for a distraction from something hard.
Amusingly this means a lot of old RPGs and such are arguably set on a toroidal world rather than a globe.
it would be interesting to know. epic games is very secretive with their statistics.

regardless of epic’s earning potential across various demographics of gamers, the most interesting demographic to me is those who are playing 240+.

that group is passionate, dedicated, and always raising the skill ceiling.

maybe some new game company can target that niche with a high performance game and a different revenue model. pay to play could be good, like quarters in an arcade machine.

game servers are a cost center to all these companies, and this has a tangible negative impact on the gaming experience.

even gamedevs at epic are probably seen as a cost center.

epic’s profit center is the army of inhouse artists turning out endless digital balenciaga.
It is almost like they needed the news to be distracted for some reason....

I don't know why this is downvoted. In the car community, you hear TONS of stories about stolen cars. The owners have tracking devices, video with clear shots of the people stealing it with their faces, location of the car, plates of the getaway car, and every piece of evidence handed to them on a silver platter. And the cops never do anything.

Where did you read that about Epstein and Gates?
Was just thinking that nothing of value was lost, but really, first they come for that, and by the time they take the rest away it's too late. The objective is to erase and fray social ties that form anything resembling a durable narrative or identity. This is a process, and it's accelerating.

This law will require Meta to pay news companies "for posting their journalism on their platforms". What is the intent behind the law?

> "If the government can't stand up for Canadians against tech giants, who will?" said Rodriguez.

How is this "stand[ing] up for Canadians"? More like standing up for news corps. The framing of the response from Meta by Trudeau as "bullying tactics" is a bit irritating. I'd expect Meta's experiments with blocking news to be checking whether the new costs mean it's still worth for them to post news or now. I still don't really understand what the purpose of this law is.

This isn't going to be solved by individuals voluntarily putting the climate above their own comfort. It's going to take strong bold policy. It's good to make good decisions and it's not great that some people don't care, but if your strategy to save society and the biosphere is based on individual choices the. We've already lost.
Right, but where are the short term gains? Scores are down.

The charts I saw on the NAEP site had 4th grade scores basically flat. Which chart do you see them going up in?

Specifically, their charts do show we are up in math compared to 90, but it has been flat since about 2003. And 4th grade reading has been flat basically forever, which is laughably in contrast with the older kids.

If your assertion is that they are having to teach to the test just to keep things flat, and that is why 4th graders are treading water and then starting to fall off by grade 8, I can buy that. I'm a little susp that the charts between 4th and 8th graders seem to not have a time lag on them. In that, whatever we are doing wrong seems to impact both grades at the same time.

If that is the assertion, though, I stand by my "if they are teaching to the tests, they are doing a bad job at that."

ALPRs are usually on regular cars, which have regular people driving them around. You don't see them and they're paid to drive around all day. They're contracted like Uber.

Having formerly worked in safety critical software, it would make me cringe when I would hear people in those industries use phrases like "move fast and break things."

What is it like in Asia / Latam? Could it be that people have less money or are less gullible? Or are social consequences different? The problem in North America seems to be that there's no downside to the behavior you describe, so no matter how minuscule the upside people are going to go for it.

What made me choose Revolt over Matrix is the user interface and structure. I vastly prefer the server-with-multiple-chatrooms paradigm that Discord (and by extension Revolt) use, it's a much nicer way to host a hangout with your friends if you have more than a few, so conversations about different things can happen in different places and people can avoid stuff they're not interested in. Matrix kinda has this in that you can group groupchats, but the UI is a lot more awkward. Additionally, Revolt has custom emoji, and you would not believe how reliant you can get on custom emoji if you and your friend group have gotten used to using the samw set for years.

There are 8 basic alloys of aluminum based on the alloying element(s) (or none for 1000, which is pure) with the 8000 serving as a sort of catch-all for various combinations that don't warrant a category all their own. The total number of formulations is quite large and the properties, machinability, weldability, various strengths, density, resistance to fatigue (and post processing options, such as hardening) vary considerably.

Materials science is a fascinating field.

The escape hatches are unfortunately core to how eBPF in the kernel can work at the moment. It keeps the kernel from having to provide every possible piece of data the program might need as an argument, and provides a lot of assists that otherwise wouldn't be verifiable in general code. Stuff like string operations that would cut into the max 4096 instruction count.
The clarify my scenario: I'm looking for the rate, not the total from a standing start.

To use an analogy: I'm not asking how far a car can go on the highway if accelerating from zero, but how far it can move if moving at highway speeds.

Nonetheless, the latency to main memory is also a great example of how bad programmers' intuitions are! A processor can perform thousands of operations in the time it takes for it to wait for just one memory access.

RAM is the new disk, and disk is the new tape.

PS: There was an article on here just a couple of days ago about how "handles are better than references". I didn't see many comments pointing out that this doubles the number of memory requests required when chasing pointers, halving the overall performance!
It was the GameCube, in-between the PS2 and X-Box in performance.
