It helps to make a decision about whether it's worth buying. Of course opinions can vary wildly, which is why looking up multiple reviews and/or videos might be a wise idea.

As an example, I've struggled to get people to fully play one of my favorite platformers of all time, VVVVVV. And then the much vaunted Ocarina of Time bores me to tears and I can't push myself to get through it.
Not "instead of", but "in addition to".
Totally planned obsolescence.
That's later backfill, a retroactive change to give a manufactured "biological" origin story. Whether they're real or not, researchers love a good "we took this from nature, isn't nature wonderful!" explanation.

The C in CNN isn't "Convolution" for no reason. It came from work with convolutional filters (yay Sobel kernels!) which at it's height became filter banks and gabor filters and so on before neural networks pretty much killed off handcrafted feature development. Every explanation of how CNNs work still falls back to the original convolutional kernel intuition.
And then it would close, and then we wouldn't get the news anymore. Your statement makes one think that clickbait is the correct way to do news
Random internet people is, hilariously all you can even trust now.

Reviewers have been pretty questionable of late with a few obvious gaffes, but Starfield was the last straw for me. A wall on 10s for reviews, but the game is a clear 6, maybe 7 on a good day.
That’s not speculation. Capitalism is more that just trading for profit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalism

I disagree with the sentiment, the IA is a very useful source, but, as shown here, it provided the wrong answer. In general, you can't trust it to tell "how old is something", only to show that it is "older than".
Take that as a tongue in cheek comment - I've read such things with close attention, I was studying measure theory back in the 1980s when I first met the author of this work here in Australia.

There is a subset of people on HN that do read and enjoy mathematical texts, they appear outnumbered by a larger group that seem to post and comment on anything Terence Tao without seeming to be that deep in the actual math, which is fine, but it has struck me as a HN trend of late.
They are objectively not that, lol. If you don't like what they're doing I understand but please don't disrespect people you don't know.

Five years of lost income from the loss of the world's biggest market (4 times the size of the US market) will mean that the US chip makers will be far behind their Chinese counterparts.

Don't forget, no sales to China means a huge lack of R & D funding to keep the US chip-makers ahead of the Chinese ones. The Chinese will pull ahead.

On that of course I agree, but mathematicians tend to "relegate" such things to exercises. This tends to look pretty bad to enthusiasts reading books because the key examples aren't explored in detail in the main text but actually those exercises become the foundation of learning for people taking a structured course, so its a bit of a disconnect when reading a book pdf. When you study such subjects in structured courses, 80%+ of your engagement with the subject will be in the form of exercises exploring exactly the sorts of things you mentioned.
Are you suggesting there is no reliable legal distinction between cause and without cause dismissal?
It was an example and the same applies to games. I never replayed a game because of a patch, never waited for any kind of updates and never will. When a game released, that's the state I'm interested in, that's what I will base my reviews on, end of story.
Express is still the "go-to" now, because it's the rare case of a Node library that's stable, battle-tested, and doesn't change much. (Yes, the maintainers having not been able to release v5 has actually been a sort of advantage.)

But, there are other great options to go with now, and you probably won't go wrong with fastify or hapi.
The model X’s windshield is massive and very hard to make. Only one OEM supplier in Peru was making it. Model 3s any Ys have more “mass minded” designs, not hard to make by third parties for aftermarket.
If ads are indistinguishable from the regular video, can't people just skip past them? Afterall, regular video can be fast-forwarded / skipped.

I will tell my computer to automatically skip video that was originally marked as unskippable.

If things really escalate, I will tell my computer to blank the screen and mute the audio when an ad is playing. I will do this with a keybinding, or maybe with an AI. This will be undetectable to the server.
Modern loneliness is a far more multifaceted issue than it’s often presented as.

For instance I’m sure that a major factor is the need for people to move great distances away from family and the community they grew up in to be able to find education, living wages, and other forms of opportunity. That breaks existing connections and makes it harder to form new ones, but I never see that talked about.
How to Move Your Google Photos
My weekly chance to gripe: unfortunately nobody who writes about GA seems to be bothered by the fact that the geometric product is basically meaningless (outside of a couple of specific examples, complex numbers and quaternions).

If they would just write only about the wedge product and omit the geometric product entirely, it would actually be a great book.
> I recommend reading a datasheet of a chip sometime. It will put into perspective how much complexity there is in just a few millions of transistors.

I do miss working directly with small, simple (relatively), cheap chips. I don't miss dealing directly with the low level bus protocols though. I still have stress nightmares about diagnosing can bus and i2c bus problems with an oscilloscope. Like in the stress dream I'll either forget some important details about the protocol and not understand what is going on at all, or I will remember everything in perfect detail but be unable to speak and explain what's wrong to the other person who's there working on the issue.
You couldn't help yourself, could you? :)
Many times the government can’t hire employees they need (unable to pay them a competitive salary or otherwise attractive career prospects) so can’t bring it in house.

Then, cost-plus arises because a company has to cover overhead and leave a profit, otherwise why would they bother? (Cost plus makes sense when you’re not sure enough of the requirements to write a fixed-price contract and then get change-ordered to death.)
Thanks so much for sharing your project and story <3
Really bad article, the author doesn’t seem to have any idea what blue ocean strategy is about. It’s not about making “bold moves” in an unchanging market. It’s about cutting down cost through focusing on what really matters to an under looked consumer audience. That audience being one the competition isn’t even focusing on. Also low cost wasn’t just Nintendo’s choice, that was a major factor in the definition of Blue Ocean. Apple cuts down cost in some areas to compensate for quality and user experience, keeping the cost. They do this because they make luxury items.

Yellow Tail Wine and Nintendo’s Wii were text book examples. They both found an untapped audience, novice consumers who don’t know nor care for over the top quality. In Nintendo’s case, hard core gamers valued graphics and performance as quality. To Yellow Tail it was Wine enthusiasts and their interest in vineyards, vintages, and hints of whatever.

Apple products are novice, but they aren’t cheap. The Chromebook is a better example of Blue Ocean. It does only what an entry level consumer wants in a laptop. It browsers the web, writes documents. Google said “hey, pretty much everyone who owns a MacBook but isn’t an artist or techie could use this”. Like MacBooks it doesnt require expertise, it offers a similar user quality experience, but unlike them it’s affordable because it doesn’t have unnecessary hardware specs and Swiss watch leveled build quality.

I don’t blame the author for not reading the whole ass book. But for god sakes, at least read the wiki page about it, don’t use a gaming magazine as your source. Because he clearly took the Wii example in the magazine and ran with it. He thought he could map it onto Apple products because what, they get rid of stuff and are innovative like the Wii was?

I’m glad I’m not the only one who found the battery ramble irrelevant.

This seems to be the best way to move photos + videos from a (university) Google account to another account.

I don't have an auckland.ac.nz Google account, but my university also suddenly changed my unlimited storage to 20GB.

The smallest and simplest practical particle accelerator are pyroelectric crystal linear accelerators. They are typically cylindrical rods of lithium tantalate (or niobate) cut so their pyroelectric face is exposed on the ends (~1 to 2 cm long). Put one of these in mild vacuum (~10^-4 torr) and use a resistor to periodically heat it up and let it cool down. During the temperature changes moving charge will be exposed on the crystal's pyroelectric faces. This exposed charge creates voltage gradients which can be used to accelerate ions or electrons (alternately) up to 200-300 keV, about 10x the peak speeds of the linked laser accelerator (over ~5x longer distance).

People have used them as linear accelerators with deuterated plastic targets to accelerate deuterium ion gas residuals and achieve toy-scale desktop fusion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyroelectric_fusion They were also used as a portable x-ray source in a commercial x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy kit called "Cool-X", https://www.amptek.com/internal-products/obsolete-products/c...

If you powered the resistive heater with a battery the device could literally be only a few cm long and maybe a cm radius. Very easily held in the palm of the hand. It's not a penny, but it's the full device and it's energy storage.

Graeber wasn’t t a Marxist or a communist. (he actual refutes Marx ‘s theory of material conditions by pointing out several Native American tribes from the Pacific Northwest who had the same material conditions but organized their societies in radically different ways.)
I read this several days ago on Zvi’s substack: fantastic analysis that I don’t think many others have. The rational community has pretty good insight, given how much the ethical altruism community overlaps.
Wild guess: you don't measure a second. A second is defined as 1/86400 of a day, or 246060.

Lets say a pendulum can swing for about 2 minutes. You just take a 2 minute hourglass, make a bunch of pendulums of different lengths, and assign someone to count the number of swings between the moment you turn the hourglass and the moment the sand has passed trough. The one closest to 120 is the correct length.

Now this solution is mathematically elegant but comes with a lot of problems. First you must rely on a less-than-perfect time measurement device which may suffer from day to day variations due to temperature.

On the contrary, to calculate the distance from the poles to the equator, all you need is a good angle measurement device, from which you can triangulate a distance.
Convenient lack of mention of the content creators in these threads where people just complain about Youtube corporation.
Even if the advertising were perfect in every way I'd run ad-block.

you don't get free access to my time, there will never be a point where I'm willing to spend time watching an advertisement or sifting through advertisements looking for real content.

I haven't watched television regularly since the mid-90's specifically due to the commercials, I'll be damned if I'm going to do it online.

And I don't give a shit if you think I'm entitled or not, it's my time not yours.
> By presenting a mystery without any reason why else you might be interested other than the fact that it _might_ be a mystery.

In the article, they claim it was a mystery and have a link to a previous story they published in September about said mystery.

> If the article turns out to be something uninteresting or something not to do with the headline, then the reader has wasted their time and the author and the website is being dishonest and being rewarded for it by clicks.

That's about the nicest concise definition of clickbait I've ever read!

It's also exactly the reason why this article does not qualify as click bait:

1. The answer is interesting to anyone who cares about elephants (and if you clicked the headline link I assume you care about elephants)

2. The answer in the article is literally the answer to the headline.

Please consider the distinction between a) annoying headline links that require you to click to get the answer, and b) clickbait-- by your own definition-- which leaves you with uninteresting/non-relevant content to what was claimed in the link

If you overload clickbait to mean both things, you might erroneously reply with a buffer too large for the type of definition you meant and accidentally pad with private key material
Absolutely the case for me too.

Google ad for a scam site made to look like a legitimate Australian Bank:
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-06-21/scammers-using-text-m...

Youtube's home page seems to always have, at the top, some kind of get-rich-quick video advertisement when I (rarely these days) visit it. Far from trying to improve on this, it feels as if Google/YT are actively trying to normalise scam advertising. I just cannot support that, at all, ever.

If Google has no mechanism to prevent their platform from being used by scammers, I feel it's my responsibility that their platform doesn't reach my screen, lest I, or my family members fall for a scam - which can be psychologically damaging beyond the potential financial damage.

I've mentioned before that this isn't a problem Google are inspired to solve, since their current advertising scheme successfully scales to the size of the Web. However, appropriately policing advertising to ensure scams don't get through would seriously affect the ability to scale. And it's the scaling that makes the billions.

Regulate Internet advertising the same way television advertising is regulated.

Colour me unsympathetic at my most forgiving.
> YouTube is the one that feels "Entitled" to show me advertisements

They show you advertisements in exchange for the free content they provide.

You can just as easily not visit the website if you don't feel like the service they provide is worth the risk of being shown the ads they serve.

I'm glad projects like this exist, but I'm too lazy and more than happy to have a Pi provide a serial console and a hardware reset via GPIO over IPv6 for colocated hardware. It's much simpler ;)

I always find good vanilla JS for everything I've needed (though my needs haven't been too special).

Depending on what you're building you could also say: "I want to spend time building my business, not writing an API for myself just so I can communicate with my own backend." Which is not even to mention how much simpler concurrency features are. But again, it depends on the application.
I think we agree? I am talking to the efficiency of the brain. Not processing speed. Efficiency of the brain to do things advantageous to the selfish genes I guess.

The brain is supremely efficient at what the brain has evolved to do. It is almost tautological! Because if it wasn't, it wouldn't have evolved to that.

Silicon comes from an alien land, and is emulating. Even with the best algorithms there has to be a limit on how efficient a computer-based intelligence can be without changing how the chips work.

You could spin it around and say, well computers are better at many things than humans, and there is no way you could get a biological brain to be as good for the same amount of power (e.g. a raspberry pi can do calculations our brain couldn't possibly do).
Nonsense! That's like comparing apples and oranges!
I'm not necessarily disagreeing with you about the parent's tone (though I think "attack the character" is not really accurate). However:

> Please do better.

This specific phrase, especially as a standalone sentence, comes off as highly superior/patronizing. It's almost exclusively something you would say to a child, or as a humble resolution about yourself.
response bias at work. If you let people describe themselves they will lie to become whatever they feel gets them the most success.
Perhaps Hamas could stop using their own population as human shields, vacate from hospitals, let Palestinians leave the north of Gaza and release the hostages. But they will never do that. They will keep using Palestinians as meat shield and their deaths as propaganda, diverting humanitarian aid to fund terrorism, using women as terrorist bombers, telling children to thrown rocks (which are deadly) at IDF soldiers so they as "martyrs" and sabotaging any possibility of peace because peace is an existential threat for Hamas.
I have a group of friends that meet for D&D twice a month. For us it's like the nerd's version of going out to a movie.

I even made a comment at the birthday party of one of these friends last week. "Come on out, we're terrible D&D players so don't feel embarrassed. We're all just there to have fun".

In college I had someone pull me to the side and tell me I wasn't taking the tabletop sessions seriously enough (it was GURPS rather than D&D). All these years later, I'm not friends with this person (other reasons, but the point remains).
Strange that we should come to opposite conclusions; I feel like pretty much everyone I've ever known has real empathy.
If you read the story it would tell you. Performance goals which were unreachable were added and used to fire people 1 month short of a 24 month window during which you'd have to pay it back. The timing sure seems suspect and arbitrary and although I agree with you that the bonus terms probably say "we can fire you if you don't perform", moving the goal posts with a month left is a concern.
haha, last session our part basically gave up as the dice definitely wanted us dead.

That didn’t really clarify for me, which is which? What is DevOps to you? (Seems to be different for everyone)

The wiki for “programmer” has “software developer, a software engineer, a programmer or a coder” as interchangeable terms in the first sentence.

>US also has almost 350 miles of high speed rail, not 0. The Northeast is where it’s all concentrated with Acela being the fastest.

Acela is not "high speed rail". Maybe to Americans it is, but it really isn't. Let me know when the US can make a real high-speed rail where the train company actually owns and operates the track and can actually maintain a high speed, instead of just going fast on one short little stretch and then calling it "high speed".

That article talks about an unexpected EV rental experience. I would agree with the author.

A person renting an EV to try it on for size would have a different mindset. Also if you rent an ev through hertz, they bombard you with FAQ emails before your rental.

The article also was a chevy bolt. I think renting a tesla is a different experience than ccs/chademo because the supercharger network is well thought out with lots of locations with many many stalls, and it is well integrated into the nav system.
Generalised rating systems aren't really that great. Given how general they are.

Imagine if a book is advanced Sci Fi, as in the concepts are built on exiting and other well known scifi books. The normal reader won't understand and think it's terrible.
The actual target audience, Sci Fi book nerds, would love it.
You are talking about a new game from the same thing. That takes years to come together. You cannot just sit down and say, ok, here is a few more hours of thing for you. That takes time, a lot of time and effort from multitude of people. That's why 99% of DLCs are trash.

There is no such thing in movies like bad cgi at a given time. Noone with a sane mind would ruin 10s of millions of investment with bad cgi nowadays. CGI reflects the state of the art, or a level that is acceptable/affordable and won't cause the viewer to be knocked out of concentration.

Maybe for people who work in the industry and have an eye what to look for, cgi might have issues, but viewers won't recognize anything odd.

Also... movies either work or don't work. I even rewatch movies from the 30s. There are movies, like Fritz Lang's M (1931), which were tens of years ahead of the industry regarding pacing and storytelling and still (re)watchable almost 100 years later.

strip clubs I imagine. They can't legally say they have escorts, but it's an entire scene. Like any other tribal knowledge, you need to know the edge cases and know the right people. And/or be rich. You can't just google this kinda stuff, you gotta get out to your town and dig (well... you kind of can. But you don't want to take the risk asking for certain Craigslist ads on this stuff).

Or you can go to Vegas where prostitution isn't illegal.

Having studied QM, I disagree. You can always introduce trigonometry and remove it.
