It's not about if predators have good eyes, it's much more about your brain expects to be processing depth information based on the difference between the two images (will having your eyes effectively 4cm+ closer together feel weird?). The images from each camera will clearly be different to your eyes but maybe your brain easily adapts.

Others have said there are algorithms allowing all the objects in a scene to be distorted/rerendered in such a way that this can be corrected for but I am extremely skeptical of this without evidence.
You're right, partially. Yes, you can track the tracker itself and go to that location. But that location might be inaccessible to humans, or the cat might drop the tracker somewhere where it gets unusable, say a bit of water for example.

Also, whats the point of a tracker if its not on the cat?
If you’re interested in this topic, I highly recommend watching David Boies interview Bill Gates for his deposition in Microsoft’s antitrust trial. The whole thing is on YouTube and it’s fascinating.

They spend a lot of time parsing just what Gates and others on his executive team meant by things like “cut off [Netscape’s] air supply”.

Regardless of who you think “wins” these exchanges, the government thought that putting Gates in a position where he had to explain this kind of language would be embarrassing and discrediting.

It worked.

Thanks for the leads to potential collaborators in Turkey.

I've been to ITU once before around ten years ago but not to the Geology Engineering department. If I remember correctly, at the time they're building a new HPC cluster mainly for earthquake forecasting and prediction. Will try to contact them, perhaps next time I go to Istanbul I can pay them and Boğaziçi Kandilli Institute a visit.

Also if there's person or company outside academia interested on the research it'll be good because Tübitak has funding for international research and innovation. Perhaps we can have joint industry and academia collaboration to built real-time monitoring systems for testing the new earthquake prediction scheme.
and yet if you became friends with someone that encouraged you in the right way, or found a routine that let you get exercise in a way that didn't suck, you'd probably feel really good about yourself and want to keep doing it.

It's not that its impossible to work with people to raise them to a higher stanardard. It's harder, sure. But not impossible. And the result is usually worth its weight in gold

Lazarus gives you cross-platform and multiple architecttures at no cost. From what I recall, Lazarus is a more lightweight install, while the Delphi IDE has better coding features. For the classic VCL (Delphi has other new frameworks), I haven't found anything that LCL cannot do yet, but I don't do anything unusual with the widgets. The FreePascal language is mostly compatible, however, they don't plan to strictly follow newer Delphi language features (e.g. inline declarations).
Only insofar is that there is less of a grand framework for the language analysis and manipulation, refactoring, and syntax and error highlighting than one might think. (I still find this hard to believe, but perhaps this was due to an impedance mismatch between me and my JB interlocutor.)

I was under my own (pretty pedestrian) assumption that the secret sauce of JB IDES is/was the MPS system in which they are/were able to create libraries for source code analysis and manipulation on a language-by-language basis. I further assumed that this per-language library plus some language-specific GUI tooling, plus the language-independent GUI libraries and processing (local history, VCS integration, side-by-side textual (not semantic) diffing tools, and so on)

The response I got, which was quite a while ago (2019 or before) was that the individual language IDEs did not use MPS-generated libraries in perhaps the extensive way I've alluded to above, and this surprised and disillusioned me somewhat. I was hoping to get as much of an answer from my JB friend as, presumably, you were from me in this thread. :-)

Yes of course, there must be massive code reuse between projects, and yes, this was an entirely hand-waving set of assumptions, and no, I haven't researched the composition of any given JB IDE to find out the proportions of language-independent vs language-specific code volume.

I'm surprised someone at JB hasn't given a talk on this sort of thing over the years.
It's less about price than about grades of laptop.

For example, if you buy Lenovo, the Idea* laptops will be junk laptops, while Think* will be pretty good quality. There are sub-grades within both. With Dell, there are usually several series with names changing periodically. In the Latitude series, the first number corresponded to quality when I last bought. 3xxx is junk. 5xxx is decent. 7xxx is good. There are similar divisions in their consumer lines.

It's possible to find very good reliable laptops if you're willing to live with last years' model, and especially with off-lease premium laptops. Corporate environments will often lease a thousand premium laptops for three years, not stress them very hard, and then they're sold for a song as there's a corporate-wide refresh.
You might care to learn the difference between Norway and Denmark.
The Lazarus UI designer is way more advanced than the one in Delphi 7. The anchor system alone (which allows you to place controls in relation to other controls which maintaining automatic layout and resizing - e.g. make a bunch of buttons share the same right edge regardless of how large the text inside the buttons is, then put a separator a few pixels[0] ahead of that edge and have other controls' left edge be at the same distance from the separator - then have the container automatically size itself to fit these, taking margins into account, all these done through the GUI with no need to write any code).

Perhaps you saw the floating windows and thought it was similar to Delphi 7? The floating windows mode is the default (as a lot of people using Lazarus prefer it) but you can also have a single window mode (with or without embedded form designer). It used to be clunky at the past but in recent times it got polished out as some of the developers use the single window mode instead.
That's not good enough. I want to look at a tag and immediately see how it's styled. No cascading or hidden/indirect styling. It should be all there, completely isolated from the rest. In fact, I should be able to copy/paste just the HTML (or component) into a completely different application and it should remain exactly the same.

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted - this is a well researched phenomenon. The interstate system opened up access (ie, subsidized) land for single family residential.

Safety first. I can always buy a new tracker. If the cat got killed by the tracker what the point of the tracker in the first place?
People reporting on missing cats and such. The solution is simple: keep the indoors. That is the responsible thing to do. Cats are highly destructive to native fauna, they can get injured, die, breed, pick up parasites, or catch communicable diseases that may be incurable.

Keep them indoors.

Yeah, it is thanks to the choice of a hybrid location service : at home it's only a few BLE packets and no 4G, but as soon the tracker is outside it's back to the hungry GPS chip and 4G data.

You cannot expect a 4G + GPS to have a long battery life.

> use one version of their engine FOREVER

In an age of locked down mobile OSes and forever changing graphics drivers and such, I don't think "FOREVER" is very long any more.

It's like a perpetual license to a specific version of JetBrains Rider. It's sold as if I own a general purpose tool FOREVER and can opt out of an endless subscription but no, it doesn't mean much at all. It will not work with the next runtime update and past runtimes are obsoleted after a couple of years. They have managed to outsource their subscription lock-in as the release cycles of a third parties while pretending to be holier than thou. If they shipped the volatile parts as open source plug-ins, I would feel differently.

As Game developer myself, and unity user, I was concerned about the new pricing model, however, actually reading the actual changes[1], you see that 99% of the developers are not affected, and in some cases, for those affected, still cheaper to go with Unity than with Unreal: There is a video explaining it well https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENoVL68z9PU

For sure an open source solution would be more than welcome, but sounds like impossible, because either those out there are half-backed, or are just finding a way to monetize it too..

Unity had the same in its license. But they changed it without notifying and when you updated the engine the new license applies even if it's a minor version so Unreal can do the same thing.
I would consider PIV and SSH through PIV/OpenPGP legacy and undesired nowadays. If you're only interested in state of the art second factor instead of passwords for sensitive use cases, a simple FIDO2 security key w/o all the extra features on a yubikey 5 is enough.

You can solve most of those with only FIDO2 nowadays:

Webauthn with fido/u2f is supported on most websites and oidc providers.

SSH with FIDO and resident / non-resident keys is supported.

PAM -> as documented in the guide, although setting origin and type manually isn't necessary and you can save keys in ~/.config/Yubico so non-root users can manage their keys. I would recommend enabling PIN verification with pamu2fcfg --pin-verification.

LUKS hard disk encryption with FIDO2 for unlocking isn't covered but is possible, systemd-cryptenroll can set this up on modern linux distributions.
The cloud is just digital feudalism, except we even tricked people into selling their own hardware willingly thinking it was 'smart'.

I agree. The right hand side also makes it very easy to zoom in on the problem details. If the pizza is not properly boxed, I don't want to worry about whether the salami was sliced the right way. I can skip over that, and immediately zoom in on the boxing process.

Pretending that a comment header is the same as a function is a bit silly. We can navigate to functions, not to comments.
> I really like the Chromecast model, browsing on a mobile device to select content is just a much better UX.

I feel the same. I have a Kodi setup with LibreELEC and I just feel like it does too much and is inconvenient for my use. I don't really want to build and manage a "media library" on the device that's playing back content (small NUC-like computer connected to a projector). I wish I could just send a file to it from my computer or phone and instantly play it back without having to go through the whole media center style UI thing.
The only whataboutism here is yours.

It doesn't matter what word you use: Genocide of X people is not worse than killing X+n in another country while calling it "victims from war on terror". This is not a competition of killing the most (if it were, the US would be in the lead).

The question is why does it matter what kind of government is causing the deaths? Why is it worse if X people are killed by an authoritarian regime than X people killed by a liberal democracy? If your Mother is killed by an authoritarian regime, is it worse than if your mother and child are killed by a democracy?

Instead of throwing whataboutism around, why not answer the question?
Flutter Flow 4.0 [video]
I've been following Flutter Flow since before they joined YC, crazy how far their IDE has come, Google should acquire them and turn it into a the official IDE for Flutter projects.
Reminds me of this article from yesterday:

And the old saying "knows just enough to be dangerous".

The fact they got this far without knowing this safety information is concerning, to say the least.

I used to break into music festivals as a kid.

The best time was just as camera phones were being adopted. I had a paying friend already on site, and got him to send me a picture of the wristband. Sky blue, yellow toggle.

I head to a haberdashers, grab some ribbon and a few appropriately sized beads and laugh my way in through the front gate.

No way that'd work these days, but my favourite hack to date.

Good times.

It depends on other specs, some of which (like those related to the boot process) have already been ratified.
From what I've heard (from podcasts) the challenge of C++ Builder is catching up with Clang to add their additional C++ language features.
They don’t employ all 150,000 union members and a 40% raise is on average likely to be less than 40,000 but the points are still the same. Reducing the CEO’s salary to give the workers a raise of more than a few cents would require the CEO to pay hundreds of millions of dollars. So it has to come from profits or costs have to go up.

This[0] statement from Ford does align with what you are saying, I clearly misread the 150 billion number which was revenue. However they claim to have over 30 billion in cash it looks like. 2 billion of that could cover $40,000 raises for up to 50,000 employees for the next 15 years. Even splitting that by raising costs by some fraction of a percentage, taking out half a billion from the cash and then 1 billion from the profits is more mathematically sound than just saying the CEO should take a cut to cover the costs of the raise.

Of course they care about $30 million per year. That's enough to fund a good-sized full-time team just to work on this one single problem.

You can't go idly throwing away $30 million a year, even if you're Facebook. Yes, they can get away with it once or twice, but if that is your approach to unnecessary $30 million costs, you're not going to last very long.
I mean, if you're concerned about the cat's health, keeping it indoors (or in a cat patio) is probably going to reduce the risks to the cats health way more than skipping a collar will, and you won't need a collar.
It's also very polished, supports a lot of formats and has apps for a lot of smart TVs and setup boxes and great matching. They have been doing some steps in a direction I'm not interested in lately but so far everything still works nicely and I'm not ready to abandon it.
When I worked on ads at Google we had many A/B tests that had been running that long, generally holdbacks where a feature was almost entirely but not 100% launched.

It was relatively rare that the holdback would show markedly different results than the initial A/B test we used in deciding to launch. If that had happened more often we would have run more long tests and been slower to move to launch.
Rather than sending the full dataset (which could be fine if it's small), just do serverside filtering. And rendering for the most part.

It drives me nuts how much completely useless JS is written. 90% or more of web apps could easily be serverside rendered with maybe a few small scripts added.

Instead we have this shit, people writing hundreds or even thousands of lines of JS to make this dumb ass auto-refreshing search/filter page whose only purpose is to make a bunch of pointless requests and computation while I'm in the process of building my query.

Just have the filters be a form and the search button submits it. The backend executes the query, builds the page and returns it. Easy peasy, no pointless requests, no sending megabytes of pointless data in response to every request. No complex JS(which by the way is an absolute shit-tier language for anything beyond 100 LOC) logic.

I may be biased due to my personal experience, personally I find that the vast majority of JS I'm forced to deal with shouldn't exist. It's either a result of bad application design, bad API design, JS that just does things html and CSS do better, or dumb ass requirements like "we need this filter page to update the results every time the user does anything". No you don't, you just need a way to build a query and a way to submit it. And paginate it.

"But page loads take too long that's why we use SPAs" they take too long because you're sending megabytes of pointless JS that shouldn't exist. Remove the JS and they're fast. Plus SPAs are frequently slow as shit anyway, because most web developers just kind of suck and write shitty code. Like sending a huge Json document with every request rather than handling it in the backend.
Would be a good application of a Grub menu option:

a) Boot with all bells & whistles. Or
b) Boot straight into editor & type away.

Hell you could even use a customized kernel for that, to strip out all the boot-time consuming features that editor doesn't need.
