It probably doesn't matter either way for babies, but fyi ASL isn't a sign version of English; it is its own language. In fact American Sign Language is more closely related to French Sign Language than to British Sign Language. The Australian and New Zealand Sign Languages are largely derived from British Sign Language, so there isn't really a correlation between English speaking regions and ASL. Canadians mostly use American Sign Language and French Canadian Sign Language.

We No Longer Need a Big Carrier's Wireless Plan. Discount Ones Are the Way
Viral infections generally don't last past a certain amount of time, so when someone who is not immunocompromised clearly has an infection past a certain point, it is assumed to be bacterial.

It's also not unusual for someone to end up with a bacterial infection because their immune system is weakened from the viral infection.

Your coworker almost certainly didn't repeat everything the doctor said or did, nor should she have to; mind your own business. It's wild that you were not there, don't posses any medical training, but consider yourself more qualified...
Good point, thanks! I'll remember that for next time.
This is mostly true, but sometimes the cost of evaluating the condition itself is non-trivial. For example, if a and b are complex objects, even something as trivial as `if (a.equals(b)) ...` might take a relatively long time if the compiler/runtime can't prove a and b won't be modified between calls. In the worst case, a and b only differ in the last field checked by the equality method, and contain giant collections of some sort that must be iterated recursively to check equality.
Looks like the Tesla has an open diff with poor brake lock diff control, I think the lighting has an option for a locking rear diff wonder if they were using it, looks like it.

Interesting thing about the Rivian quad motor version is while it has full software control due to a motor per wheel, this can be a downside for crawling like this because it has no way to send torque from one side to the other, so if say only two wheels have traction its torque is cut in half and can actually struggle to move forward as its also a fixed gear ratio.

Contrast this with say a Jeep wrangler that can have a locking transfer case with low range and locking diffs can send a lot of torque to a single wheel through torque multiplication in both the transmission and transfer case and everything locked up. Jeeps also have a decent brake lock diff even if you don't have lockers.

If you are able to snapshot the state of the JIT, you can do the warming on a single node. The captured JIT state can then be deployed to other machines, saving them from spending time doing the warming. This increases the utilization of your machines.

I'm a big believer in infrastructure.

Slow building in layers, with each layer providing a context and a foundation for the next.

That takes time, and can be V E R Y, V E R Y, B O R I N G.

In order to do infrastructure successfully, we need to commit to a long, protracted development process, with a shitton of testing at every stage, and refusing to go on to the next stage, until we have the one we're working on, now, complete.

And we may not even see the final results. We may simply be the first-stage booster of the project, and our name may be buried in the dust, raised by the folks that stand on our shoulders, and get the credit.

It's not easy. I've done it, multiple times.

American culture, as it stands now, is no so good at this kind of mindset.

> In Factorio, the meta you want to be searching for is "mixed belt" design, it seems.

A more specific case is the "sushi belt" where one belt balances multiple ingredients while looping around on itself.

Sometimes they just accept new items in a fixed ratio, sometimes they can actually rebalance if disturbed. This is my favorite https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Gt5Zx0bsOQ

I use soft language because this is a sensitive topic that has become hyper politicized and I am not a partisan (both of the current parties are extremely gross).

I said that I haven't read this article. I do assert that a) state electoral process is generally decided by the legislature b) leading up to the 2020 election the mail-in ballot option was greatly expanded in many states c) in at least several states, the ballot option expansion was enacted by the executive branch, not the legislative branch, as part of the emergency response.

Which of the above isn't true?

Getting into details, I am not sure exactly how many states were involved in (c), or whether the (c) possibly could have affected the outcome. Figuring these out would require significant analysis. I would have to go state by state and read the electoral process laws, and then find the state by state records of electoral process change, and then cross reference those, etc.

I haven't seen this analysis done anywhere, but I would be grateful if anyone could link such an analysis since I am still curious. It seems like people generally don't get into the details, they just start yelling.

AMD and Apple both have TSMC to thank for their ability to make chips that beat Intel's. Unfortunately for AMD, Nvidia uses TSMC too, so they'll have to invest in software to compete.
I don't agree it is unhelpful commentary. I think it makes an important point that just following some rules you found won't be enough because the right answer isn't a result of something arbitrary/universal but is a side effect of a better understanding of the responsibility of each piece of code you're writing.

BenchmarksGame is actually an interesting if unfortunate case for C#.

Many tests there are at odds with the areas of optimizations that get most engineering effort investment in .NET: high level and/or application logic and high-performance primitives like Span, Vector, etc. (with the exception of perhaps Regex-Redux, but even there I'm not sure why the results are so low, because C# has one of the fastest[0] regex engines that only loses to Intel Hyperscan, Rust one and PCRE2).

Probably the best way to go about this is to just give it a try with a sample project and see if the RAM usage is to your liking - you can get far with plain 'dotnet new console --aot' and standard library (once you're done, .NET's variant of go/cargo build is 'dotnet publish -o {output folder}').

Overall, .NET tends to have higher memory footprint than Go because its GC is designed to sustain much higher allocation rate and heaps spiking to much higher use without severely throttling performance (which Go does). But there are interesting developments with the new GC mode called DATAS. I made a very simple example project some time ago to showcase .NET's concurrency and publishing experience to someone else which shows that it now rivals Go where it's the strongest[1].

If you're on arch you can use sway-nvidia from AUR. I've been using that on my desktop without significant issues. The only one are some graphic glitches on the steam interface (but not in games). I'm on a 3070ti though.

I think it's mainly just environment variables, so if you're on another distro you can have a look at the the GitHub repo and implement it yourself.

The biggest nvidia issue I encountered are problems with display managers, GDM would sometimes not start wayland compositors or not start x11 WMs. I tried several others as well and always had issues (never had issues on my previous AMD or Intel machines). I ended up just autostarting a locked sway desktop and everything just works.

To be honest, not hard coding a connection string is quite tough too. It really isn't an easy problem to solve. And especially when every piece of software out there connects to data in different ways.

The reality of the situation is with proper IT support, there could be compiled Excel Addins which provide API connections to core systems such that proper authentication also takes place. But that requires a first step by IT. Either that or authentication via a web server to get a temporary connection string. Either way, it requires prior infrastructure.

I suppose it could be intentional but the actual animations seem off to me. The hammer appears to slow before impact and there is no slight pause when piercing Takoyaki. Again, they're robots which means it might be a stylistic choice to have mechanically fluid motion.

Why?

I'd give more time to groceries if the experience of gathering them resulted in better nutrition, fun, and groceries existed in a third place that I really enjoyed like the old working space I occupied for a few years.

I guess the subtext is that I improvise groceries. I don't orchestrate them. I suspect consumer personas pivot on this inflection point around groceries. It's worth studying DFW "This is water" for context.

There's no "metagame" in Factorio because its not a PvP game.

The "metagame" in Magic the Gathering or Starcraft revolves around the game before the game is played. For example, if I see that my opponent in Starcraft is a Terrain player (and I'm a Zerg player), I can study their games and see that they prefer to open 8-rax 3 marines very early harassments.

I then decide to practice 9-pool / 6-ling and make sure I'm good at that before the game even starts, so that I'm well practiced against what they like to do. That's the "metagame", decisions you make before the game even starts.

Or in MTG, its knowing how good Rakdos decks are (or whatever is popular today) and finding counter-cards. You play the game before you even start the game, because you have to prepare your deck.

So there's no real "metagame" in Factorio. There is a "meta" however. (IE: what most players tend to do).

> I don't think with the current copyright system you would owe another artist money when recording a commercial just because your voice happens to sound like theirs

No, its a right of publicity/right of personality issue, not a copyright issue. While that's not a federal law issue in the US, its an issue in some US jurisdictions, and its a national law issue in a number of non-US jurisdictions.

The mistake is thinking “would not owe money under the current copyright regime” means “would not owe money”: there are more laws in the world than just copyright law.
It seems that by using modern technologies and materials, they might have solved the problems of this type of engine, which despite what they say in their advertising is not at all new, but it is more than one hundred years old.

More than a half of century ago, several companies have experimented with it, including Wankel (NSU), Renault and Isuzu, but eventually they have abandoned it. Isuzu has even produced it commercially for some time around 1963.

I have read the main LiquidPiston patents and I do not know why they have been granted, because they do not seem to include any innovation over similar patents that are more than one hundred years older.

Nevertheless, LiquidPiston must have made some true innovations, because it seems that their engines work OK, at least for military applications in drones and portable electric generators, where high power to weight ratio and low noise and vibrations are likely to be the main advantages.

Whichever is that they have improved is not in the overall design of the engine, which was well known and described in the old literature, but in the details of parts like the combustion chambers or the intake and exhaust valves, or in the seals, or in the materials used and in the manufacturing methods.
It's awesome, but also funny that we're using WASM to reinvent COM 30 years later.

And that's not a knock on WASM. It's just that COM was pretty neat for it's time, even if it was sometimes painful in practice.

But I find it pretty nifty that I can still take a COM library written in one language and then import and use it in C++, C#, Python, Ruby, JavaScript, or Racket (and plenty of others - those are just the ones I've used COM libraries with.)

Totally agree with the sentiment. I find the constant debates on "is AI conscious" or "can AI understand" exhausting. You can't have a sound argument when neither party even agrees on a concrete definition of consciousness or understanding.

Is it actually walking you through its thinking? Or is it walking you through an imagined line of thinking?

>this can be a downside for crawling like this because it has no way to send torque from one side to the other

I'm pretty sure that there'll eventually be some sort of LSD/locking programming for electric motors. Take the existing F-150 Tremor for example. It comes with a locking rear diff and a Torsen diff in the front axle. If you have a quad motor vehicle, someone could easily write a "locking rear diff" mode that simply has the rear motors turn at the same pace, and then have a "Torsen diff" mode for the front that will modulate the front motors just like a Torsen diff would.
