Rotoscoping is directly tracing from film frame by frame. Most of the time animators instead use what are called reference key poses. For extremely stylized characters it can be difficult if not impossible to use rotoscoping for complex sequences because the proportions make the motions impossible. Instead specific frames where there's resting motion in the sequence are pulled, and the animators translate the positions of the joints to the unusual silhouette of the character for the key frames. The Castlevania and Masters Of The Universe: Revelation series from Netflix use this quite a bit for realistic characters -- it was heavily used during the Trevor and Death fight and Skelegod versus Savage He-Man fight -- and Rise Of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and High Guardian Spice used it for their stylized characters for perspective and fight scenes.

If this technology can instead be used to not only find the key poses but also roughly determine the inbetweens for a heavily stylized character like Rocko Wallaby or Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup then it is extremely useful.
In am not in Sales but I imagine good at Sales overlaps alot with good at product design/ownership. They are talking to the customer alot. Both the ones who
buy a competing product and also buy the one being sold. They probably have done
some account management so they know the concerns with onboarding and getting value from the product.
Nah, there are variable ratio mechanical systems. On a rack and pinion setup, for instance, you vary the spacing of the teeth on the rack. ZF's been doing this for decades.
It is a surprisingly common reality for numerous technologists.

That doesnt mean that there arent good situations. I would LOVE to work with business co-founders with these backgrounds

- They already have 10 customers in mind, have done mockups, have done validation with customers, and you can verifiably know that the customers are interested in the technology at a particular price point before you build

- They have a friend/colleague at a key major customer who is willing to be the first customer before the technology is even built, and this can be verified

- They can bring in purchase orders before the technology is built out

- They can bring in conditional purchase orders contingent on some technical milestone

- They can bring in VC to pay technical co-founder for upfront work

- They can get front-row seat with some key industry group or policy-maker with influence

- They have prior verifiable successes (e.g., Steve Jobs, Elon as extreme examples)

All the above are worth gold. What isnt worth gold is someone who wants to sit back and chill while a technologist codes away for six months.
Does anybody know anything about the back story of Olvid?
Generally speaking almost all mechanical steering systems are not dynamic though, you are missing the point entirely. It can't change the spacing of the teeth on the fly - steer by wire effectively does. The number of turns lock to lock on a mechanical system is almost always the same, regardless of speed.

With steer by wire, you can easily implement say one turn lock to lock at low speed for easier parking, increasing to 2-3 turns at highway speeds for stability. Which is essentially exactly what the recent Lexus model with such a system does. At low speed it can turn its wheels from one extreme to the other in just 150 degrees of steering wheel rotation - no hand over hand turning etc. 150 degrees is essentially unthinkable on a mechanical rack and pinion system, as it would make the car incredibly twitchy on a highway.

You're right. Let's completely change how humanity has done it for centuries so you and your friends don't spend 32sec looking up "current time in X" 2 or 3 times a day.

You would still need to do the effort of understanding what 10pm means for the other party. 10pm may be your lunchtime while it's the middle of the night for them.
The extension developer decides whether to mark their own extension as Android compatible. Mozilla doesn’t want a lot of users to install extensions that were never tested on Android. The users would have a bad experience and developers of incompatible extensions would face bug reports before they’ve had time to test and fix their extension’s bugs themselves.

They do, or try to. But then there's this awkward moment when you ask about lap 2 or 3 where the Porsche or Audi or whatever is still blazing around the track while your Plaid is pulled over in Thermal Shutdown mode.
> if we cannot build a coherent foreign policy based on solid humanitarian principles in the third millennium, what hope do we have to survive as a species?

Apparently we can't do that since we are keeping protected a group of people that want to have specific ethnicity dead so much that they put it into their constitution. I'm all for harmonic and humanitarian future, but to ever hope achieving that sworn murderers must be subdued.

But notice it's a practical philosophy that reflects reality. Wishing very hard that it wasn't exactly true won't change it.

> Colonization tends to be good for colonizers rather than the colonized, unsurprisingly.

Why do the Indians own more property in London than the British? Why the British are now a minority in their own capital? Could it ever have happened if UK didn't go on a colonization spree a while ago? In the long run being conquered sometimes brings insane benefits. Circling back to the topic I believe Palestinians would get immense benefits in the long run for laying down arms and joining the Israelis on their terms.

I remember reading an article about advertising in either the late 1800s or early 1900s (I mean about advertising back then, not that I read the article back then!) that talked about how a lot of ads included pictures of nude young children. Nude young children were seen as symbols of purity and innocence.

I think the most astounding relatively recent situation where nudity was common was in indoor swimming pools up until the 1960's or so in the US. Most public and school pools were segregated by gender, with the females required to wear bathing suits and the males required to swim nude.

What largely put an end to that was the effects of Title IX which was passed in 1972, and required gender equality in physical education. Schools mostly found that mixed-gender pools were the easiest way to comply, and no way were they going to require males to swim nude in mixed-gender pools. Nude swimming disappeared so quickly that a generation later it was largely forgotten.

Wikipedia has a good article on this [1].

> The fact that you already paid some money for the other people doesn’t necessarily give you any reason why you should pay more for another expense, big or small.

You're right, but in the wrong place.

You're paying for another big expense when the person commits another offense and ends up with another round of prison. BIG bucks. If you'd just paid for their phone calls when they were in the last time, you'd have had a much better chance of not needing to spend that additional money.
> The only logical conclusion is that many people are also not conscious and don't qualify as being able to reason.

Most humans aren't "able to" juggle 3 balls, but most humans are physically and mentally capable of learning to be able to juggle 3 balls, it's just not a common thing for most people to learn. The same used to be true of reading and basic math, but look where we are now with some good planning and hard work!

They allegedly tried chromium without luck.
I think you completely missed the point here. Your statement categorically denied one proposed cause, and presented another as the sole truth for an incredibly complex social result.

I don't know if you're not a native english speaker, so apologies here if that's not the case, but you seem to have fallen down the stairs with a Thesaurus. This didn't help improve the clarity of your comment in any way, and gives the perception you're trying to give your reply a veneer of intellectualism with no content behind it. What "mythology" did I present? I intentionally presented no alternative theory.

The proposed theory in the book may be well be a large contributor to the end result of illiteracy in slave populations in the US at the time. But to categorically state that a single reason was true for a society consisting of millions of individuals is absurd.
> someone else's work

Just a number really. That's all intellectual work is: a number. All numbers already exist, humans just discover them.

I just can't take it seriously, this notion that intellectual work is somehow "special" and deserving of "protections". To me it's as delusional as trying to own numbers.

Why do you need somebody's permission to do math with numbers? Makes no sense whatsoever.

Ask HN: Are Apple's M-series MacBooks over-powered for ordinary users?
Something about Apple's targeting seems off. On one hand, they have different tiers of M-chips, supposedly for different customer groups. But then they have MacBook "Pros" with 8GB RAM, which is definitely problematic for ordinary users. On the other hand, they offer one of the most efficient and powerful chips, 99% of which ordinary users won't ever utilize.

It'd make more sense if Apple produced MacBooks with at least 16GB/32GB RAM in 3 tiers:

- Offer 75% of their current M-chip power for ordinary users (≥16/32GB RAM).

- Offer 150% of their current Pro chip for mid-power users (≥32/64GB RAM).

- Offer 200% for really pro users (≥64GB RAM).
I mean, "peaceful" and "gentle" are kind of an anthropomorphism of sorts. I'm not even sure what "gentle on a solar-system scale" is supposed to mean.
We did include `-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS` but we intentionally did not include `-D_GLIBCXX_DEBUG`, because we've been focusing on production releases.

The current plan is to add more information distinguishing between production code and instrumented test code, and adding options specific to each. There are many options that might make sense for instrumented test code that don't make sense for production code (and vice versa).
Rummy, whist, euchre, and chess all have many variants.
The skill here though is the general skill of hiring people
to do a job you can’t do yourself. This is a very useful life skill. Have you ever hired an electrician or builder? It is like that.

So if you hire a company to build something think of a way to keep them in check. You could hire an independent person to review their work (like hiring a seperate project manager and architect to work with the builder)

Or you learn the trade a bit and ask lots of hard questions. That fly by night outfit would crumble on asking basic questions because they are not cut out for it. Their happy paths is suckers. As a coder I got sucked into cheap labour coders and never again. Too much skummy stuff going on.
This is the biggest issue.

No issues with licensing - openjdk and others are perfect for production use for the vast majority (imo). Some supermassive projects excluded but they are always outliers.

The migration path after 8 is just a pain, As you mentioned, package. The name changes are for no benefit to developers or end users.

oh common, that is clearly another social media vs Twitter fight. It's not Tesla place the range. It's EPA range.

Just read the article:
>Tesla vehicles failed to accurately account for external factors impacting battery performance and vehicle range, leading to a gross overestimate of the vehicle's range.

So, Karens want tesla to account for a/c temperature preferences, rain, wind, snow on the road, and other factors. No other manufacturers do so.

You have an EPA range, and if you decide to speed 85 m/h while having a 10% charge, you will dramatically lose your range. It's the same with any car.

>Testing is done at EPA's NVFEL facility and by vehicle manufacturers at their own facilities. EPA audits the data provided by vehicle manufacturers and performs its own testing on some of the vehicles to confirm the results.

The only reason it is "estimated", they didn't finish EPA testing yet.

I’ve been wanting something like this for a long time. My tastes are a little offbeat sometimes.

Wax Tailor, one of my favorite artists, uses sampled dialogue from films, educational programs, corporate videos and whatnot to create quite interesting sonic creations that I just love.

I wish more we’re creating similar types of music (I just found Biosphere’s “Petrified Forest” which is themed to that old movie - and again I love it). I’ve had very little luck except an occasional one-off from DJ Shadow, or Aim.

I’m not familiar with some of the artists that show up in relation to Wax Tailor on this map - but the ones I do know are not the same vibe.

Laws don't have to be enforced, but it's still the law. You asked for a law, and REAL ID is one. Although it isn't fully enforced, the provision for an ID is fully enforced. It's just not required to be a REAL ID, but an ID is required.
Yeah, but not from a bad firmware update
Correct neither CAN or Ethernet say anything about IP ratings, but I guess having an ethernet switch as a distribution rather than everything on a chain restricts the failure to one device.
My 2 cents:

A) Make exercise fun - tennis, golf, hiking, skating, skiing etc.

B) Marriage is a piece of paper. Kids are permanent and a major source of pain or joy depending on how you raise them.

C) Always have a plan B for job, housing, and possibly primary relationship. You may never need it but having one makes plan A tolerable longer.

D) Fully fund your 401k and Roth or trad IRA(s). Let compound interest work for you.

E) Own whatever home you can afford to buy from tiny on up.

F) Reserve time every day or week for your 10000 hour activities/skills.

Limiting EV torque off the line is probably one of the lowest-hanging emissions reduction fruits out there, given that (by estimates I've seen) tire wear for current EVs is in aggregate 20-50% faster than ICE vehicles.

Not at all. "Anything can fly", but not everything can fly without killing you. The fundamental problem is three-axis control with stability. A source of power does exactly nothing to solve that.

Can't say I'm inclined to disagree with Stallman on this one.

What I mean by that convuloluted expression is that while I don't understand very well the arguments for the use of cl-lib, and I'm sure it makes certain things easier, I've hated any encounter or attempt I have with using cl-lib myself. The whole thing is just weird, you're writing Emacs Lisp, but also it's not Emacs Lisp, and it behaves the same, except also different, and it litters the namespace with duplicate functionality, but it also has different naming conventions and everything behaves slightly differently.

Its prevalence has also led to more and more people suggesting its use (and loading) for issues that are perfectly solvable in Vanilla Elisp. Leading to more cargo culting as people struggle to build up a proper model of how the language works.

Again, maybe there are arguments for using it in some limited capacity at compilation time, although ideologically and aesthetically, I admit, even that seems icky to me, but I believe Stallman and others mentioned are correct in believing that something like cl-lib should not be loaded and used by something as fundamental as the inbuilt debugger if there's any way of avoiding it.
Toyota is rumored to make a truck smaller than the Tacoma, which is pretty exciting to me, in part because the Tacoma has become ridiculously expensive. But it will undoubtedly be a hybrid at best.

* A base model 911.

The base 911 is not intended to be fast in a straight line. It's actually about as fast as a Model 3 Dual Motor Long range. Base 911 is about experience, feel, and handling.

I say this because the mid-range 911 Turbo S would blow the doors off an unladen Cybertruck Tri-motor with it's 2.2s 0-60.

What is the best way to find a 19xx year that closely matches 202x so i can use the GOTO mode? I have been adjusting bright stars by some crude guesstimates by looking at average change in times between 1950 and 1990 and then again between 1990 and 2023 and working out the RA and Dec which can get me close.

But it would be nice to figure out if there is a year that would match real close. Maybe i can use this library to do a brute force search.

[Astro Teller] ended the meeting by standing up in a huff, but his attempt at a dramatic exit was marred by the fact that he was wearing Rollerblades. He wobbled to the door in silence. “Then there was this awkward moment of him fumbling with his I.D. badge, trying to get the door to open,” [writer Carrie] Kemper said. “It felt like it lasted an hour. We were all trying not to laugh. Even while it was happening, I knew we were all thinking the same thing: Can we use this?” In the end, the joke was deemed “too hacky to use on the show.”

Salaryman: The High-Pressure Lifestyle of Corporate Workers in Japan
When I was in school, for some reason I had an enormous amount of free time in class where I’d be sitting there quietly with just a pencil and paper to kill time. I’d invent strategy games to play against myself, or draw out a go board (it was a pain to erase captured stones!). Better than the alternative of seeing how long I could hold my breath. I wish I had known about this game, it’s perfect for pencil and paper!

> especially once lawyers, VCs, and other business people get into the mix.

This is unfortunately true, since the VCs are only interested in the forward-looking value of the enterprise. They would prefer to dilute other shareholders (including founders — and especially former founders) to maximize future fundraising. And lawyers, of course, are happy to tell the VCs how to do this, regardless of what protections were put in place initially.
