>I think it’s just a matter of time before EV range well exceeds range of ICE vehicles.

The CATL Shenxing PLUS LFP pack gets 205 Wh/kg which lets it go 621 miles on a 16.6 minute charge from the Shenxing Superfast Charging Network. A typical ICE mid-sized probably gets about 360 miles on a 4 minute gasoline fill-up so it's closing the gap with ICE in terms of time refueling even if you do zero at-home charging. If you have any at-home charging, you'll come out way ahead.
Back when I played TF2 circa 2010 I helped friends run our own servers and we would just manually ban the cheaters. If they came back me or someone else would ban them again until they got pissy and moved on to greener pastures.

It worked back then, anyway.
So not a weekend project but not crazy hard. Probably still rules it out for my hobby apps.
I usually follow Inigo's work but somehow i missed this one. Thanks for sharing this.
Whether there's a performance detriment from borderless-fullscreen vs exclusive-fullscreen depends on how a program presents its frames (and on the OS, of course).

On Windows, under ideal circumstances borderless-fullscreen performs identically to exclusive-fullscreen as Windows will let the program skip the compositor and present its frames more-or-less directly to the display. (Under really ideal circumstances the same applies to bordered non-fullscreen windows.)

If the compositor can't be skipped, borderless-fullscreen can be a bit brutal on performance: on a 4K 160Hz screen I've experienced an additional 40-milliseconds+ of frame-latency purely from borderless-fullscreen being used.

The Special K wiki has some pages that go into more detail about the situation on Windows: https://wiki.special-k.info/SwapChain, https://wiki.special-k.info/Presentation_Model
We minded a labrador once (notorious appetites), he'd eat capsicums, and on the neighbourhood walks would even go for raw green olives that fell from trees onto the paths. I'm pretty sure they are very bitter which sensible animals interpret as poison but not he. So we had to steer away from those during that season.
Somewhat ironical, but I'd be a bit more charitable and simply chalk that up to edge cases; additionally it's no different than typical ideological signaling. I find it less interesting to care about the extent people can bastardize a given idea, also because that's an entirely different, sociological issue.

Tho really any belief system that becomes so institutionalized will inevitably attract flies and become debased over time. However one could cheekily remark that by virtue of its message and who it spoke to, early Christianity was inherently debased, and certaintly ignoble.

The question is what is the probability it doesn't transfer to pigs (if it hasn't already), compounded on a daily basis and given an exponentially increasing viral load in farm environments?

Scratch that. The question is how many days or weeks until it does make that leap.

Then the two next questions are what's the likelihood of any given pig serving as an incubator for a recombinant virus that attaches to human lung epithelial cells, and how deadly is that virus. Run that experiment every day for six months at a few farms and you might get lucky. Run it everywhere in the country and we're S.O.L.
The reverse would be good though

I mean you can do without it for LANs but that's not how the game is played 99.9% of the time. I'm skeptical that community reports and moderation would be nearly as effective as anti-cheat software (especially with a lot of cheats being fairly subtle), especially with respect to scaling to a large player base. Also for a free to play game it's gonna be a game of whack-a-mole at best.
This seems completely unsurprising.
It’s long been the advice (at least on HN) to assume the value of options are 0 if you are employee. You have no ability to control dilution as a mere employee, so in almost all cases they will be worth nothing.

As a founder, you’re in control. Your equity is worth as much as you make it! But the more funding you need to take on, the more diluted you’ll be. Bootstrappers grow slower but remain in complete control, and can’t be screwed by rare events like this one (or more common dilutive events, which VCs may force on you).
CATL Shenxing PLUS battery pack does 621 miles. It can do 375 miles with 10 minutes of charge time (on a CATL 4C charger).
The cellulose aka fibre is useful for them too, for the same reason as us, even if there are not many calories or other nutrients available. Dry food, bones, high protein diets can all benefit from a bit of bulk.

I've been told that wild dogs and wolves eat the digestive contents of herbivores which is semi-digested (free range haggis!), which definitely seems true to me given how much both of mine go for rabbit/sheep droppings. This supposedly supplies some more available vegetative nutrients to them. But this came from a pet nutritionist, I'm not sure how strict or scientific their training is.

Vanguard has been out for Valorant for a while, and it appears to be the same system for Lol. Im not saying that these complaints are a few rare examples by haters, except that is what I am saying, and I do think its much better than this article implies.

RIOT said 0.03% of players eeported and issue, the majority of which are probably the incredibly common case of Vanguard requiring TMP 2.0 on Windows 11, which doesn’t brick ones PC

Im sympathetic to the security issues, but the outright blue-screening in this article are probably not issues.
But do they establish a causal arrow? If you're in chronic pain because you're dying of something you're not exactly going to be likely to do a lot of cardio workout. :)

Without care you might conclude, for example, that rock climbing prevents becoming a quadriplegic since there aren't any quadriplegic rock climbers... when in fact to the extent that they're related at all rock climbing sometimes causes it.

VO2 Max is highly trainable, up to a point. But in order to see any significant improvement you're going to have to spend months consistently doing a mix of hard intervals and long zone 2 workouts.

There are major differences between individuals in terms of training response and achievable upper limit.

No. Passkeys aren't device bound but they are a challenge response protocol so no token transits the wire during auth flows. It’s why they are cryptographically more secure than a shared secret (token). However most implementations take the result of a passkey login and issue a session token so…

How often have games coopted end-user computers for nefarious purposes? Yes, the anti-cheat software may often be crap, yet this next step is not a common phenomenon.

Except for Sony, lol.
A great technique we used in my servers, it that involves having repeated servers, and a server culture where some trusted players are mods, as otherwise the cheaters vote to ban enough non cheaters to turn the game into a jungle. TF2 itself turned into a cheating horror as Valve servers were added, and the typical player just clicked on quick game, basically destroying the server culture, as you would almost never get new users.
Fortunately, this seems relatively simple to change (compared to other things with this magnitude of impact).

It was a transformative experience to go from 40 VO2max to 57 (as reported by Apple Watch, and losing 30lbs on the way) over the past 12 months. The best part about it is that I didn't even have to give up anything - the extra energy I gained from 90-120 minutes of aerobics per day also had the effect of making everything else more efficient.
Generally 3rd person shooters like CSGO and Valorant have this same issue, so its probably more complex than you think. Also, another kind of cheat is to display expanding areas on where an enemy could possibly be based on the last seen position.
Good mainline linux support has not been my experience for the kinds of mobile SOCs the Rabbit was inevitably going to be using. Taking a look at the PostmarketOS support page for the mediatek SOC used in the product [0], seems like most of the sleep and radio drivers are not mainlined/supported. Yes, Qualcomm and mediatek drop support after annoyingly few years, but they do provide support before EOL.

"It could easily be made better by including a VO2Max test and a DEXA scan every few years."

Frankly, the vast majority of people don't need fancy tests. The thing is, the healthcare system is not about optimizing health or performance. It's mostly about fixing problems and heading off the most common ones in the easiest ways. If the goal was to optimize, it would be relatively easy for a trained individual to examine most people and tell them to lose weight and exercise more. Hell, you could blindfold the person and their advice would still be right like 80% of the time.
How to do the thing you're afraid of
Seems like the issue is that anticheat strategies are not part of the game core but being added as a tack-on. If the games engine itself is safegaurding/disallowing things breaking laws of physics/human limits, then most of the non-sense would evaporate. Not knowledgeable enough about game dev to know why this is already not being done.
I keep seeing headlines similar to the above ("Second Boeing Whistleblower").

I would like to test the site, but I'm not going to create an account just to test. If I test it and like it, maybe I would not have a problem creating an account, so why not move the "create an account" step to later in the process?
Pretty sure Dexa scans and VO2Max tests are HSA/FSA eligible.
Cheating in Lol is rampant enough that the most popular cheating champions (that are easier to cheat with) have had large win rate drops since Vanguard was required, which is quite impressive in a 5v5 game.
Take these reports with a mountain of salt. Riot monitors online cheater communities[1] and has no shortage of player activity data. Right now:

1. There's definitely an ongoing, coordinated disinformation effort from cheaters. Some media and real users with poor information hygiene are magnifying it, which is of course the cheaters' goal.

2. Riot's activity metrics are normal, meaning there's no statistically detectable technical issue keeping players out of the game. The actual players are going about their business as usual.

That's about border claims, which is a completely separate issue to what the article is talking about.
in c and c++ this is not just normal but almost unavoidable. if your function takes a t* and someone casts a random int to a t* and pass it in, it is gonna segfault. no possible way to validate it, though in theory you could open /proc/self/maps and iterate through it to catch the segfault cases, or install a segfault handler
Interesting piece but does not do a good job of explaining the whole layer of unexpected biology entailed by this capability.

At least in terms of video games investment, Tencent is known to be very hands-off of the western companies it owns and is often seen to be a better option vs some western conglomerates. Ubisoft turning to Tencent to help it fight off a takeover attempt from Vivendi is a pretty good example.

Vanguard itself is developed by a US-based team and they've stated that they have very little to do with Tencent's anti-cheat team (Tencent uses its own solution for the CN region, including for Riots game) beyond sharing cheat samples.

Your points are covered by League's blog post that goes into the underlying reasoning: https://www.leagueoflegends.com/en-au/news/dev/dev-vanguard-...
It's ridiculous that gamers are willing to accept installing a rootkit in order to play a game. And it's ridiculous that they even defend the practice by crying about cheaters. And it's ridiculous that game developers reach for rootkits instead of securing their own games better against cheating and/or designing their games in such a way that computer-assistance gives no benefit. It's just ridiculous all the way down.
As someone who plays a competitive FPS game 5-6 nights - I’m all for anti-cheat that actually works. Online games are plagued with cheaters and it really ruins the experience. If rootkit-style anticheat helps the situation at all I’m personally willing to make that trade off.
According to Apple[0] it is only after the specific activities of: Outdoor Walk, Outdoor Run, and Hiking. Which explains why my estimated VO2 max goes down significantly in the winter months when I'm mainly doing cardio indoors and only taking leisurely walks with the dog outdoors.

> Even simple waist-to-hip ratio assessement

Settling for subpar "could be good enough" heuristics instead of doing actual measurements is partly why people are less receptive.

Basically it'd just be telling them they're fat, and not what's their actual individual risk, and it would also make tracking progress overly difficult: what if after a year of exercice their VO2Max greatly improves while waist to hip only slightly changed ?

Overweight people already have distrust of doctors just telling them to first lose weight and dismiss their specific requests for help, additional advice vaguely based on statistics would probably not help.
I worked for this task for a year and it doesn't work very well because in embedding space relatedness, synonymy and antonymy are mixed up and require pairwise thresholding. You can probably get to 90% but not 99% this way. Better use a crossentropy approach.

In modern RAG applications we return top-k results for this reason - it can't simply give the correct snippet in one result, leaving the hard part to the LLM to make sense what is useful and what is not.
If Google didn't mind breaking the law they could use the previously mentioned, public code to convert the coordinates to the standard format. Could be that it wouldn't be worth it to implement that though.
These crop up every now and again but they never address my biggest concern, which how we can be sure that https://w3c.github.io/webauthn/#attestation-object will not create a situation where only approved devices are allowed to authenticate.

It's not hard to imagine Google and Apple and a few others finding ways to pressure authenticators into blocking access to users of devices that cannot prove that they're running firmware which bellyfeels ingsoc.
> The court has since ordered the company to auction off the warrants it held in more than 1,000 of the startups that went through the accelerator program.

I probably don't understand something but how will this possibly benefit creditors? Who is going to pay anything for warrants in startups (most of which will fail, since that's what happens to most startups)?
I would sure hope the original units were recouped after 8 years.

You can look at their stats and see that the very vast majority of their data is on 12-16TB drives, and most of the rest is on 8TB drives. Even with those not being the very newest and cheapest models, their average server today is a lot denser and cheaper than their brand new servers 8 years ago.
https://passkeys.directory/ indicates that plenty of relying parties have implemented support for passkeys and I’ve yet to hear about any efforts taking 100 sprints (if TFA is to be believed that it’s 100x harder than a single sprint’s worth of work). Indeed a rather lazy exaggeration.
I am not a fan of China, but not wanting coordinates of strategic targets in your country to be precisely known doesn't seem crazy. Other restrictions they have like not being able to access the Internet, or being put in reeducation camps, or not having a say in how your government is run would affect me badly. But if navigation in my car worked fine, would I care if topography is a bit distorted? During the pandemic, I saw US federal, state and local government restrict my freedom in much more drastic ways, even after I was already vaccinated. I know it was even worse in China, but I would still focus on these other things and rather than not having precise coordinates of a military base.
I am building a competitive programming platform: https://toph.co

For me, it started as a way express ideas. I wanted to build a platform where I could implement the ideas I acquired and thought about during my time as a competitive programmer. One could say it was a scratch-your-own-itch project.

I have never set any concrete targets for this project. No growth targets, no revenue targets. And that resulted in simpler motivations for the project.

Experiencing the evolution of the project in itself has been both a motivation and a reward.
How do you know the functions are "semi-redundant" and "soft-depreciated", if you've not worked in this before?
Even if that is the case, it is more of a commentary on how companies have overall failed to come up with anything creative for quite a few years. All of the products that are the "next big thing" currently are hampered by the current state of technologies that they use.

The iPhone is a great example of technology catching up to make a product viable. Between phone networks, display technology (especially touchscreens), SoC efficiency, etc. the iPhone only became possible when these could integrate together in a practical package along with the vision to bring it to market.
Gotcha. This is like 80% me nerding out at this point.

60 is plenty young to build muscle as long as you have no serious injuries. You may not be that far off from a 60 year old former college athlete who let it all go to pot at age 35. In fact, I’d wager hardcore 20 something athletes may have experienced injuries that now prevent their older selves from maintaining a healthy lifestyle. There may be advantages to having been a nerdy slight out of shape 30 year old. :)

Oh come on, your yardstick is completely ill-calibrated. Among polities that

- didn't exist as independent polities until post-WWII

- were not modernized/westernized/democratized until post-WWII (thereby excluding NZ)

you'd be hard-pressed to name one that you'd be rather born as a random citizen in. Perhaps another of the Asian tigers, like TW. Presumably you have in mind, as Gibson probably did, a country that has had a longer history of independent or democratic rule and economic development.
