Usually things like hospitals already have static fuel burning backups. You would just use those for charging as well. Then you only need 1 fuel source, and that can be gas for example.

Sure this means you need more static power generation capability, but I think its a worthwhile tradeoff.

ublock origin still block youtube ads fine.

And everytime I bring this up I always get some angry replies from Google corporate drones telling me that it is "unethical" to block ads.

Let me disagree and here is why: It is my device that is used to display ads. Everyone should have the right to tweak things the way they want to prevent displaying what they don't want to see on their laptops.
Google has no obligation to send me the video after I request it, but I also have no obligation to display arbitrary content on my laptop.

In the end this is a cat and mouse game.

I support some content creators by paying them directly or through patreon. Cut the middle man.

Depends on what you’re trying to protect against and who your average user is.

Forcing passwords onto users is a sure fire way to get people to write their passwords down and constantly get locked out of their account. In some circumstances that’s not a problem. For local domain access, that’s completely unworkable. For websites it makes a little more sense since users can use password reset via email, but if you’re going to expect people to rely on that then you might as well allow them to set a password and use email as 2FA.
VoltaML abandoned it (but may revisit it) and replaced it with AIT.

The problem with a vanilla diffusers pipe is that you miss out on all the cool community augmentations that really make sd shine. Crazy img2img stuff aside, some random examples include:

- Fooocus's implementation preserves 'momentum' when switching from the sdxl base model to the refiner.

- freeu augmentation

- tomesd

- fooocus image style presets, with known styles from the dataset strait from SAI and others.

- auto prompt expansion

- performance hacks not in vanilla diffusers

I was doing the same as you. Gouraud shading, texture-mapping, phong-shading.

I looked at your code and saw only .cpp files. I had to open your triangle renderer, and there it was - you'd inlined your x86. I don't think I ever inlined my assembler, even though I was using Borland C++ like you. I think I must have linked it in somehow?

My guess is that most of the people who are interested in pinball mostly enjoy the clunky parts.

Maybe for these virtual pinball tables that use a screen instead of an electromechanical table, but with all sorts of stuff to give some tactile feedback and actual mechanical sounds. There are typically accelerometers and tilt sensors in there too, so you can bump the machine and the software simulates the effect on the ball.

Go's exception handling (panic/recover) is very much like most other languages with exception handling, including Python. It is there to use when you have exceptions.

But we're talking about expected failure (network failure, hardware failure, etc.), not exceptional cases (programmer error). You would not want to carry 'expecteds' on exception handlers. Different tools for different jobs.

That said, systems transcend Go. The discussion isn't about Go, or Python, specifically.

I bought a Li-Ion leaf blower and baby chainsaw this summer. The chain saw is great for "the things that you'd use a baby chainsaw for", is plenty for my small urban lot, and much more convenient than a rarely-used gas engine chain saw.

The leaf blower is adequate, but not quite the equal of my older 2-cycle Echo commercial leaf blower. The electric won't move closed pine cones or acorns nearly as well as the gas. It is more convenient though for 95% of the smaller tasks and slightly quieter than the gas. Having just bought it, I'm not in the market for another new one for quite some years, though.
> if it's identified as a bot then it won't

If Twitter could identify bots, then they wouldn't have this problem at all.

This whole issue exists because they can't identify bots to any degree of accuracy. So now they're cedeing the situation and simply trying to monetize it.
Not sure if it's exactly the same thing as what you just mentioned, but I did write recently about criminals using paid Google ads to get their links for popular software downloads show up before even the first organic search result. And it includes the right icons and branding, and people click and are brought to a site that looks an awful lot like a site Microsoft might use to let you download Teams, and you get an information stealer program instead.

Tl;dr, there are multiple ransomware groups that are using this method to find new infostealer victims.

They absolutely wouldn’t because the US has one of the most regressive subsidies on mortgages in the world. But! Banks don’t (usually) hold mortgages. They sell them to Fannie/Freddie the actual agents responsible for the regressive tax.

So banks will have mortgage exposure in the form of mbs, but those are not structured to be extremely long dated.

I don't see how testing the wattage would be much different if it was two pins on a barrel plug.

Also you only really need to test the resistance here. Or volts and amps separately.

And I don't know if testing power was even part of the idea or if it was more about doing a signal test.
From what I understand, the likelihood of birth defects, cancers, etc. from living near ANY coal fired power plant is significantly higher than a meltdown in a nuclear plant. Meltdowns don't just happen; when considering them you also have to take into account the likelihood of natural disasters in your area. Coastal Japan? Maybe not great. I'd still take that over living near a coal plant, though.
On the principle that it works best when you know your tools. The lament is about the features piling up at such fast pace--and of questionable utility, too--that it's exhausting to keep up/master over. You go for a vaccation, and the language you once knew, mastered, and loved, has left you behind.

On the utility of features, the arbitraty nesting of f-strings stands out. Why in tarnation would anyone need such nesting? Isn't it simpler and readable to keep non-trivial expressions out of the f-string itself?
Good luck! Science isn't definitive by the way. Wishing you the best.
I'm surprised Krebs says something like this, because it's not novel at all. I'm in the industry, and malware used public blockchains at least as far back as 2017 (probably way before, but that's when I first analysed a sample that does that).
Gosh, people still use Windows? :P

The 6th gen laptop darling was the i5-6200U which has 4 thread (dual core) CPU. I have an Asus Zenbook with one of those and unless I want to compile a kernel in a hurry it's still perfectly functional for all tasks. You can get the same CPU in a second hand ThinkPad X1 Carbon for well under US$200 these days.

I'd probably draw the line at Sandy Bridge (2nd gen) as they're the first with AVC and VC1 video decode. Haswell (4th gen) adds come VP8/VP9 decode on Linux. H265 doesn't arrive until 7th or 8th gen (but if you're building a TV box for that, get a Pi 4 which does it perfectly at 4K).
It’s actually about unkindness. Kind people would give others the benefit of the doubt. This is the type of kindness you see from politicians, where individuals are aggressively attacked due to some microaggression to a group.
I agree, it's hard to see what real world use case would benefit from dumping UDP/IP while holding on to Ethernet, and not moving over to an Infiniband or similar solution.

I am the only Star Trek fan I know who was not a big fan of the dominion war arc. I really liked some of the later season episodes, but the arc itself was a bit of a letdown.

OTOH, DS9 is the only Star Trek that my wife will willingly watch with me; she finds the others too campy. As another data-point she likes the dominion war arc as much or more than B5, which was her favorite sci-fi series previously.
The first couple episodes of Lower Decks are the worst ones. The show only gets better.

I get that not everything is for everyone, but I really love Lower Decks. It's terrific Trek, even if it is a comedy.
Well, mental illnesses skyrocketed. That messes up economy bad, long term in hard-to-calculate ways since people are not simply dropping dead and disappearing from economy. No they are still around, more or less successfully trying to integrate back, but requiring a lot of support resources that would be otherwise used in other cases, ramping up the medical costs, maybe even losing jobs, failed mortgages and so on.

There you have it, one long term bad economical effect. There are many others, maybe even more significant.

That light pollution has only existed for a tiny tiny fraction of the time since life first evolved on Earth. It's entirely conceivable that in another 1000 years (a blink of the astronomical eye) it will no longer occur - so trying to detect whether life exists on any random planet/moon that way seems a low probability exercise, but granted if it's cheap to do you might as well (conceivably there might be other detection methods based on electromagnetic radiation etc. that would reveal more information on the dark side of a planetary body too).

Well, the Jim Crow laws were declared unconstitutional in the 60s, and the Klan is now a shell of its former self, so I wouldn't put too much weight into "are" vs. "were". They were contemporaneous. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ku_Klux_Klan#Current_developme...

Yet the law firm still carries his name, and in first position, the first impression.

Of course it's probably silly to talk about a law firm with almost $2 billion in annual revenue having any values whatsoever besides money and power.
what was more annoying was the version check they added in so many of them would not even run in newer versions.
Congrats! I've been watching this space for a while, having built a couple multiplayer sync systems in the past in private codebases, including a "redux-pubsub" library with rebasing and server canonicity that is (IIUC?) TCR-like. There's a lot to like about this model, and I find the linked article quite clear - thank you for writing and releasing this!

1. You wrote "For example, schema validation and migrations just sort of fall out of the design for free." - very curious to read about what you've found to work well for migrations! I feel like there's a lot of nice stuff you can build here (tracking schema version as part of the doc, pushing migration functions into clients, and then clients can live-update) but I never got the chance to build that.

2. Do you have a recommendation for use-cases that involve substantial shared text editing in a TCR system? I'd usually default to Yjs and Tiptap/Prosemirror here (and am watching Automerge Prosemirror with interest). The best idea I've come up with is running two data stores in parallel: a CRDT doc that is a flat key/value identifying a set of text docs keyed by UUID, and a TCR doc representing the data, which occasionally mentions CRDT text UUIDs.
It also puts the screws on management who want to squeeze faster delivery times out of drivers but don't want to know where that time is coming from.

"Oh no, of course I don't want you to speed! But I'm SURE you can come up with a way to do this route in 50 minutes instead of 60! If not, I bet we can find someone that can."

Second Reality is the single most amazing piece of art for me. Nothing else holds as much emotion as that demo. To see behind the curtain is like, I imagine, for someone else to watch Van Gogh actually painting.
Both my current M1 Mac and my previous Intel Mac were fine with the cable!

> It would be interesting to know of a high quality cable tester showed some other difference in capabilities between the cables that may explain it.

I'm fairly certain that the cable itself is perfectly fine, but that the iPhone insists on a specific bit being set on the e-marker chip insider the cable, while Macs are more tolerant and will just attempt a USB 3 connection anyway, especially since they need to support unmarked USB 3 for use with USB-A adapters anyway.
I am going to be old school on this.

I think the idea of trucks with separate batteries is not the most efficient, environmentally friendly solution. There is already a quiet, electric solution that has been proven to be much better.

I think we should go back to trolleybuses[1], and expand them to allow delivery trucks. Hybrid trucks can use electric in city, and other fuel outside.

From a decision-making standpoint it seems difficult to argue that you made the wrong choice. At the time when the $99 kits were ubiquitous, 23andme seemed like a solid, reputable company.

Back then, few people had the mindset of, "if they own my data, they own me." But we're starting to see it take hold.
It seems like being willing to learn is the most important part of having good quality opinions.
Electrical outages aren't all that common as a regular thing in the first place, and for package delivery it's not unreasonable to expect packages not to be delivered during a multi-day blackout.

As for emergency vehicles specifically, that's what backup generators are for. And it's not like there are that many emergency vehicles in the first place. Keeping 3 fire trucks charged, or 4 ambulances, in a single location, with a generator, is pretty trivial all things considered.

The main vehicles that will probably remain gas are snowplows (often garbage trucks with a plow attachment). In major winter storms, snowplows need to operate continuously and are parked together rather than dispersed among small sites the way emergency vehicles are. But for that very reason, forced electrification isn't coming for them. Planners and lawmakers are very aware of these situations.

PICO-8: https://www.lexaloffle.com/pico-8.php

I think the main reason is simply because most people buying and playing games these days haven’t grown up around physical pinball machines. So there isn’t the same demand for virtual tables like there once was.

I’m not saying the market is zero though, but small enough that even most indie studios wouldn’t see any profit.

US has been sanctioning NS2 building organizations for a while now.

Arguing that Biden meant blowing it up, is straight up ignoring the history of actions.
That's just companies externalizing their costs. Instead of paying for more staff + vehicles to get the job done quicker, they're externalizing the cost to the people they hit. At amazon or doordash scale, it's not a matter of if they injury or kill someone, it's a matter of how many people they will injury and kill by causing their drivers to speed.

$1 hardly sounds enough to stop bots, just tax them.
The "not a military" lines in early TNG are, while intended to reflect Gene's somewhat out there vision of an evolved Federation, so obviously wrong in the context of later material that the only coherent way to handle them is to either chuck them from canon, or to treat them as a bit of in-universe exaggeration and semantics wrangling that gets proven completely wrong by the time of Wolf 359.
I don't know anything about markets or why things trend certain ways, but I am an avid pinball player. In fact, as I write this, I've traveled halfway across the country to attend the Chicago Pinball Expo with a buddy of mine.

I note that Full Tilt! released in what is often referred to as The Dark Ages of Pinball. There was a slump there in the 90s where every manufacturer of pinball tables folded, except for Stern, and they subsisted on making a pretty thin, bog standard sequence of tables. Pinball would resurge in the mid-to-late '00s.

I think the 90s was a moment where there was a group of people who enjoyed pinball, but it was hard to find venues that took care of tables. You certainly weren't getting very cool new tables every year. Full Tilt may have filled that gap.

Nowadays, you can just look up your area on pinballmap.com and find tables near you. That wasn't an option in the 90s. If you didn't know of an arcade with good tables, your only option was digital.

Stern releases a new, awesome, KME-designed table every year or two. Multiple other manufacturers have emerged to answer the increasing demand. A new company just announced a Labyrinth that I am so, so stoked to try.

Personally, I don't much care for digital pinball. The physical nature of the game is core to it. The simulated nudging doesn't do it for me. The consistent kickouts on many virtual pinball tables makes it a bit samey. I think they're great for learning and internalizing the rulesets of classic tables, and certainly there are things that a digital medium can do that the physical medium just can't. That's just my two cents.
IPFS along with ipfs http gateways is also abused like this a lot. It's hopeless to try to take things like this down, but in general taking down domains is hard.
