hey man glad you like it! yep that's the idea: as soon as new features are released you can launch it on socials and inform your audience. plus GPT helps with the generation of the content.
I think this is pretty much what the term "midwit" refers to
My quote was from the study, directly.

My interpretation is basically that, to the extent that the vaccine reduces symptoms, it reduces shedding. If you still get sick, you are still shedding. If you are asymptomatic, you shed the same amount no matter your vaccination status.
Indeed, last update is from Dec-22. A70 should have gotten 4 years of security updates.

https://doc.samsungmobile.com/sm-a705fn/sek/doc.html

Looking at this list of devices getting updates, it only lists A70s with "biannual" updates, so A70 may no longer be updated:

Just one data point I remember - I believe the GTA games had music tracks removed.
I was trying to make a bigger point (using handwriting as one example) of having an innate sense of wanting to do better quality work in whatever you do. Maybe having the entire population with bad handwriting will push us faster into digital forms.

But as many have stated, maybe I'm just a cranky old dad and things will work themselves out with things he's genuinely interested in. :-)
I mean. It’s literally just people claiming they saw a light, even according to the Wikipedia.
One of the reasons for natural gas prices increasing is that the compressors that power the system have historically been gas powered, but all federal permits in the last decade or so have required electric compressors, even in remote locations.

And not just new installs, but for existing work/ upgrades.

It's a 2-for, in that price increases and reliability decreases, since the gas grid now requires the (remote) electric grid to work.
I like this idea, but I feel that the UX needs work. I'm not musically inclined, so take anything I say with a grain of salt, but...

I'd expect to see the note I'm singing on a staff, highlighted on the keyboard, or both. Naming it with the 3 lines is good for targeting in on the note, but it needs more context for beginners.

Also, it seems to lock in on the note? I couldn't figure out how to get it to let me switch to another note without stopping and starting again. Which means it isn't great for practicing a sequence.

Great concept, though.
Most Americans aren’t living paycheck to paycheck where $20/month is going to mean they starve.

You can easily look up the average time between phone upgrades is between 2-3 years.
> Godot is a "mature" toy engine.

This does not seem to be related to this:

> There is not a single quality / money maker game that shipped on Godot.

There's some missing context in the middle. I'm curious how one implies the other? I'd be game for chains of logic going from first -> second or vice versa.

I'm specifically curious, what is Godot missing?
The target audience for this verification quite clearly is not consumers but store chains (or possibly restaurant chains), so that they can verify what their suppliers are selling them.
Don’t believe satellites have enough bandwidth for dense urban areas
I keep using Swappa, and it still works, even though no individual sellers are left.
Nothing will change barring a change in economics (subsidies for quality games, Apple not taking a 30% cut on microtransactions, somehow prices for good indie games going up) or a change in human nature (people seem to just play shitty games from what I see in the NYC subway).

We already have beautiful mobile games, like Monument Valley. But that's not what the market is about. The very term "mobile game" reeks of low quality at this point. I don't see it changing.
Heck, I'm still using a 6S.

Works perfectly, and I didn't really care when I smacked a ratchet into it and cracked the screen a month ago.
It’s not that you’re completely and totally wrong that makes me mad, it’s that you state everything with such an authoritative tone that people won’t doubt it and will get into a bad situation based on what you’re saying.
> it's totally accepted to leave your car engine running at all times

There is a smaller system that can consume diesel slowly and keep your fuel from freezing -- one doesn't have to run the entire engine!
> This means that on average, we’ll need a fifty million times larger sample for the sample average to be as close to the true average as in the case of dice rolls.

This is "as close" in an absolute sense, right?

If I take into account that the lottery value is 20x larger, and I'm targeting relative accuracy, then I need 2.5 million times as many samples?
It's more or less okay to use UBSan in production though, and that can be good.

But sometimes DoS is considered an exploit, and in that case you don't want to make things easier to crash.
You actually changed my opinion in this.
Looking at the A16 chip and the neural engine on it, I am really happy to see machine learning and "AI stuff" moving onto my phone, away from the cloud.

I can't wait to see phones becoming a place for _useful_ AI use cases — with the privacy improvements of on-device computation.
You can probably find it for awhile "in the channels", i.e. 3rd party retailers like cell-phone stores for a little bit longer until their stock is depleted.
I think this is generally false. Cloven hooved animals regenerate prairie and topsoil if grazed responsibly.
Good points. I am getting a solid smacking and lectures from HackerNews (the kind I often dole out) but appreciate the input from all of you.

I know my son especially will. Well, he IS obsessed with Soccer.
I also do not have proof of anything here, but can't it be both?

They have lots of money now and the market lead. They want to keep the lead and some extra electricity and hardware costs are surely worth it for them, if it keeps the competition from getting traction.
Chemical rockets are good at escaping a planet's gravity well. We don't currently have a better alternative. Any of the 'low and slow' methods like ion drives are only good for travel between gravity wells.
This seems like a negatively charged take. Vampire Survivors could have been made in a ton of different engines that are far far less capable that Godot, for example. The engine is not the thing that holds back a product from succeeding.

This is the same as saying "no FAANG company uses X language/platform so X is a toy", it's far too reductive and not actual reality.
The article gives several reasons that p-Chip is the best candidate for this use case, and I think addresses your other question marks here as well. Did you read it? It's not very long.
Compared to iOS 17 running on 5 year old phones and the 10 year old iPhone 5s getting a security update earlier this year?
Unreal has limited traction on mobile, which is now >50% of the gaming market. It's likely one of the reasons Unity thinks they can get away with this. The last number I saw had Unity above 50% share with Unreal under 15%.

It's difficult to champion high end features for your engine but keep it suitable for low end smart phones. Epic made a good attempt to win mobile devs back in the Infinity Blade days, but given their recent focus (not to mention lawsuits against Apple and Google), it seems they intentionally decided to deprioritize mobile and focus on PC and console.
Lots of people are also adamant that spirit overcomes them and causes an episode of speaking in tongues. We have quite a few instances of this and other religious experiences, none of which passes any sort of scrutiny.

There are more cameras pointed all over the place than ever, and somehow there has never been a recording of this phenomena, despite the Wikipedia claiming upwards of 5% of people having experienced this?

Nah.
Any Samsung flagship will work (make sure it supports DeX). All the first party apps and plenty of store ones have a desktop UI. I haven't tried any native IDEs yet, but a cloud editor in the browser works perfect.
Was it only weak because you knew about the new things in advance?
The switch to USBC seems pretty significant. As well as the 3mm chip in the pro models.

> The fast and efficient A16 Bionic chip brings proven performance to iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus..

> The iPhone 15 lineup offers convenient new ways to charge… Both models use a USB‑C connector, a universally accepted standard for charging and transferring data

Only Apple can do selling like this. It’s clearly that marketing is at its heart or even in its DNA.

Only Apple can sell you a brand-new phone with last year’s chip and still convince you that you made a deal. I admit that the A16 is still at the top of the chips but you get the point.

Only Apple can bring something years old in the Android phones by making the iPhone supports the universal USB-C and keeps telling you about the benefits it brings to the table. Apparently, Apple was forced by the EU to bring USB-C otherwise, we might not live to see this happening. Anyway, I’m glad they did it.
> You've never had to "verify the integrity of game cache" either?

I've been using Steam for a long time, I do not recall any time that I have had to do this except when I was manually messing around with files and needed to reacquire the originals.
easily one of my biggest annoyances about people online who say mask wearers in 2023 are sheep. There's maybe 5-10% of people masking when i'm on public transit or shopping and that's a pretty big maybe.

> I probably don't have access to over 95% of games I bought as physical copies 20 years ago

I don't have access to 100% of my physical games because I haven't had an optical drive since 2012 and certainly don't have any of my old hard drives.

Obviously, I know I could get one for under $20, but why?

The conditions of some properties in Dublin are abominable. My friend paid $1000 a month for a 70sq foot room with no windows or ventilation, in a 3 bed house with a single bathroom. Most new grad's going in to SWE from a top university in the country would be making on average 38k annual after tax.

If you're irish, there's no point putting yourself through the misery of living in Dublin. You can just go live in London, or work remote and live anywhere in the EU.

I mean if I found something called free download manager on a technologically challenged family member's PC I would just assume its malware to start with.
I first learned to cover my internet tracks when my mom asked what "FuckSteam.com" was and why it was in the web browser history.

I quickly came to have an appreciation for Steam, as pausing/resuming downloads on my 56k dialup was very, very unreliable. Steam's client was my first exposure to reliable download pausing so they found my soft spot.
First, I was specifically responding to this:

> I remember my high school AP Psychology teacher mocking p=0.05 as practically meaningless.

and trying to explain why the OP's teacher was probably right.

Second:

> So run a meta-study upon the results published by a set of authors and double-check to make sure that their results are normally distributed across the p-values associated with their studies.

That won't work, especially if you only run the meta-study on published results because it is all but impossible to get negative results published. Authors don't need to cherry-pick, the peer-review system does it for them.

> These problems are solved problems in the scientific community.

No, they aren't. These are social and political problems, not mathematical ones. And the scientific community is pretty bad at solving those.

> the discussion point you're making is well beyond the high-school level needed for a general education

I strongly disagree. I think everyone needs to understand this so they can approach scientific claims with an appropriate level of skepticism. Understanding how the sausage is made is essential to understanding science.

And BTW, I am not some crazy anti-vaxxer climate-change denialist flat-earther. I was an academic researcher for 15 years -- in a STEM field, not psychology, and even that was sufficiently screwed up to make me change my career. I have advocated for science and the scientific method for decades. It's not science that's broken, it's the academic peer-review system, which is essentially unchanged since it was invented in the 19th century. That is what needs to change. And that has nothing to do with math and everything to do with politics and economics.
>Hopefully when/if it becomes a problem, there will be enough Linux gamers for Linux to be a real consideration, even if this consideration is no more than targetting a specific version of WINE or Proton.

Hopefully. Microsoft has been really good with Backwards compatibility on both their PC and gaming console, so that's probably part of why people don't seem to worry as much about this. But if they were ever going to do their equivalent of Python 3, or even go as far as a new architecture like Apple... it sounds like rough times on Linux due to a dependency that (IMO) shouldn't have existed.
In intensity interferometry the phase is not measured, and the timing accuracy is I believe only proportional to the desired effective bandwidth of the measurement. It was done in 1950's with bandwidths ~10 MHz -> 0.1microsec accuracy, should be do-able with SDR. Intensity interferometry is a bit of mind-twister...

(Another at first surprising thing is that radiation received from celestial sources is only coherent because of their very small apparent size -- the sources themselves are not coherent at all, because their physical size is very large)
I hear that. I also wasted several years of piano lessons that I had to attend as a boy, only to come back to the instrument much later. I'm very much on the "inspire kids to want to do something" side of education and skill development, which is why I think it's important for them to see adults having a lot of fun, or making something meaningful, so that they want to do it. That makes all the difference, and it's one reason why families of musicians tend to breed future musicians.
“ Now you can connect USB‑C gear like thumb drives, fast external storage, 4K displays, and microphones.”

Right in the linked site
I agree that fiction — especially sitcoms — should not be taken as a model of reality. I studied film and media science, but one doesn't need academic rigour to come to that conclusion.

However I would still say the best way to avoid making friends is to avoid being in places where strangers hang out. Places where you come into low pressure contact with strangers are places where you get to know people — and where you get to know people, is where you find friends. Going to those places is just a way to increase your chances of talking to someone you like by increasing the number of people tou are talking to.

And the place for you might not be a cafe or a pub, it might be a library, a golf court, a ski hut, an art gallery, a vacation resort, a park, a camping place, .. you get the idea places where people hang out and don't do everyday stress stuff. So no train station platforms or grocery stores.

But places that are especially unsuited are places without strangers, so: your home (unless you invite strangers), deserts or other remote places.
Isn't the go-kart suspension still somewhat competitive, though? I'd heard of teams that have suspension travel for passing tech and then jack up the rates afterward.

What an absurdly facile perspective. While it's true that developers like Valve develop games only to take advantage of or exhibit new engine developments and Minecraft's revolutionary voxel engine likewise enabled a game that could not be built otherwise, you seem to be suggesting that eg all UE games throughout the last thirty years are undifferentiated "in spirit" because they share an engine.

What an insult to writers, artists, and game designers! None of them have managed to imbue their works with "unique spirit?"
How are those operating system updates?

For reference, the latest version of iOS will run on 5 year old iPhones when it is released.
I've never tried that, maybe I'd have to before I could ever understand how someone could feel like it's more real.

I've avoided psychedelics because all I have is my brain, and I'm scared I could screw something up in my mind. I kinda want to keep my mind safe, it's all I am. Losing the consistency of my mind that I've always known is scary.
They always remove Pros after a year. See: https://daringfireball.net/2023/09/apples_two-pronged_annual...
You can.

Buy a $20 USB C dock with an HDMI port, start "Offline mode" on the steam deck, child plugs into TV and plays game just fine, you go upstairs and play game just fine.

Alternatively, turn off internet on your personal computer and play game, and let the little one use wireless streaming to your TV.

Basically, one of them has to be in offline mode. That is a stupid thing, but valve intends for "offline mode" to be a day to day use case of the Steam Deck
Sort orders are complicated for UUIDs because of the interesting defined structure to them, and of course endian issues.

One fun and useful reference: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20190426-00/?p=10...

It's particularly interesting that Microsoft SQL Server was designed to optimize indexing for UUIDv1 machine IDs. That makes a certain amount of sense for a database cluster if IDs are sorted by machine. Of course, developers don't let developers use UUIDv1 in 2023 because those machine IDs are not secure in a general sense and can be a privacy/data leak in the worst cases.

Other databases sort/index UUIDs differently. There's no real "standard" and optimizing the storage of a UUID key is a game of playing to the strengths of your specific database.

(On one project I put some work into matching the much-better-defined ULID sort order to MS SQL Server uniqueidentifier columns for better database locality.)
My iphone is currently 6 years old, and still getting security updates from Apple. It works as well as it ever did (I spent €60-ish for a battery replacement a year or two ago), and I hope to get at least another year out of it yet.

It cost me about €600, and I also enjoy knowing that I've generated that much less e-waste compared to my prior Android life, where I had to discard phones every 2 or 3 years.

Godot is missing the game that shows this engine is a viable alternative to Unity at large.

I mean look at the showcase:

https://godotengine.org/showcase/

It all looks amateur.

All the mobile dev work on Unity so you better have good reasons to change the entire pipeline.
As someone who’s played a lot of games… I disagree. These days I specifically avoid Unity games because they always feel janky, and yes it absolutely is the engine.
Funny I used to use this argument when people used to complain to me about video games. They can be incredibly complex and utilize your brain in amazing ways.

And I actually have zero issues with him playing video games. The sports ones involve building your team, trading players, etc. That's all pretty complex stuff.
On the opposite side I remember that researchers were (cautiously) harvesting the original strain of the spanish flu and performing a modern autopsy on its victims by opening lead coffins which preserved well enough the body after a century.
> It is much harder to set up caching/parallelization with GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Docker, and Make than it is with just Earthly

I never used Earthly but I have to call nonsense on this take.

Caching and parallelization is a solved problem in GitLab, GitHub, CircleCI, etc. It's so trivial that it's pipelines 101.

Caching and parallelization might be easier in Earthly but any improvement over "trivial" is something not worth wasting time over.

The "Explore Connectivity" modal window you can open in the "Gigablast

United States services are fundamentally broken in this way because there is literally no unified identification system for the United States.

My understanding was that (at least for the earth) the strength of gravity is nearly identical at the top of the atmosphere as it is at the surface. So I think that doing this would only benefit you in the sense that launching from the top of the atmosphere means you don't have to push through the atmosphere and it's associated drag, but you are still going to need nearly the same Delta V to make orbit.

But I am very far from an expert (not even a Kerbal player) so happy to be corrected if I'm wrong.
On arxiv, of all places ;-)
The gold standard does make prices depend on gold supply, but that is roughly 2% inflation (3kt mine supply over gold stock of ~150kt).

That is roughly in line with BTC inflation at the moment, and also, as it happens, central bank inflation targets (expectations of anything more would lead people to buy gold, or BTC, or just warehouse cash).

However, the real discipline of a gold standard is to restrict debt (credit). The market for lenders and borrowers (investors) sets the (Wicksellian) interest rate, as any market should.

Governments cannot just print money to run indefinite deficits, to curry favor with the electorate. The democratic desire for low taxes and infinite subsidies cannot be consumated. There has to be fiscal discipline. That is the value of the gold standard.
