> US cities weren't destroyed

US cities were not destroyed, and this is just misinformation, or hyperbole at best. In fact virtually all cities benefited from car infrastructure, since it brings people and things to the city, lets people efficiently get around, and so on. It helps the economic value of a city and also improves quality of life. If this wasn't true, there would have been a response with a broad political base. But there hasn't been. At best, a tiny minority of residents gets upset about roads and organizes into activist groups that make such claims. But the majority of the public enjoys and utilizes driving infrastructure.
Used high numbers of UDP packets over intercontinental internet links for mission critical applications for 15 years. 20mbit of UDP carrying RTP. Loss on a given flow is quite rare, and the application helps (via duplication, or retransmits)

As time has progressed increased from nothing to fec to dual-streaming and offset-streaming to RIST and SRT depending on the criticality.

On the other hand I've seen people try to use TCP (with rtmp) and fail miserably. Never* use TCP.

Or you know, use the right tool for the right job.
It's a ways out, but an extension to -XLinearTypes, "linear constraints", has been shown to be able to be used to implement Rust-like ownership. See Section 4 of https://richarde.dev/papers/2021/linear-constraints/linear-c...

Linear constraints are technically just sugar, but without them it's too manual with bare -XLinearTypes.

Plus those giant vehicles have additional features not as often found on the small ones like 360 cameras and auto parallel park systems, so don’t expect crappy parking situations to stop these drivers from taking up every square inch of your cities parking infrastructure.

The “big vehicle = more features” thing is also an independent reason for the success and popularity of big vehicles in America.
Factorio is a wonderful video game that includes aspects of using railroads, but it is not a simulation of how railroads work on Earth.

Speedup is realistic. Multicore SMP or NUMA are not good for memory access patterns they optimize.

Their thick control flow model that should work for exclusive matrix-addition and log-prefix style memory access patterns. In comparison to the baseline the speedup is
150% in log-prefix algorithm, over 190% in fft-style butterfly algorithm, 50-100% in matrix addition and threshold filtering. silicon area and power consumption are estimated to be low.

> Bike lanes success are well measured

Where? Outside of cities with very high density I don't see this being true. For medium density and less, what I've seen is that bike lanes remain empty. Bike counters basically show them to be failures, since the utilization barely increases over time or even lags population growth, while the car lanes remain fully utilized.

Sorry I don’t understand. The central limit theorem describe the distribution of the sample means from a population. It describes the distribution of the mean, not the distribution of the population itself. The shape of the distribution of the sample mean isn’t super interesting when you’re interested in the distribution of the samples themselves as a proxy for a population. So I’m not sure I understand your assertion. Could you explain more your reasoning? Maybe I’m missing something, but the estimation of the sample mean distribution isn’t the only metric that’s useful, and almost nothing in nature is normally distributed otherwise. Normal distributions are generally a useful assumption mostly because of the analytic form of the Gaussian and our understanding of how to work with it. But that estimation isn’t useful as it might seem. A Poisson distribution is much more common for instance.
What you're describing is called dynamic range compression, and mpv can be configured to do this in multiple ways.

Please explain how you just "make" loads run only when solar is present? A quick look at California's "Duck Curve" shows that isn't likely, and reinforces my original point. AC during the day is a major draw, but the second major draw is in the evenings when people get home from work and start doing things. Solar is okay during the summer when the sun is still out (albeit low on the horizon so many arrays have reduced output) but during the winter it's dark before you even get home.

I hope this small tool will be useful for you too. Would love your feedback, roast me now worries I'm here to learn

Why would this be illegal?

Like there would be a law against lowering hats on a string? I think it may be more funny to have a government create such a law.

Everyone doing this seems wonderful.
Something else that a lot of younger people don't realize is the position "Mayor of London" is only 24 years old. London had no city-wide government between 1985 and 2000, and the pre-1985 council didn't have a mayor.

Personally I'd enthusiastically vote for a return to the pre-2000 system as it's not at all clear to me what these people do for us or what we gain from giving them all this money.

How do people who are physically blind from birth navigate without mental visualization?

I find the utter disbelief expressed by people who don't have aphantasia exhausting. It would be similar to encountering someone who has been deaf from birth and trying to convince them that they're not really deaf, they just don't understand what it means when other people say that they hear things. They could also hear things if they just try harder.

This is one of those sentences that make abortretry.fail articles feel slapped together from other sources without attribution. Who is “CPU” in this sentence?

Context and a little digging reveals it is likely a reference to another early British company in the PC space, Cambridge Processor Unit Ltd. , described in the History section of the Acorn computer Wikipedia. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acorn_Computers

This random reference to a random company never goes anywhere is never properly explained in the first place. It gives the feel of something that has been quickly adapted by the author without much thought or understanding.

Right, if you put your tip on your card (or the restaurant adds it automatically), that's going to have a record because it's not in cash. The restaurant owners want this because having the records of tips means they don't have to pay more than the tipped minimum wage if your tips + the base rate >= standard minimum wage. They want to be able to prove to the government you got your full minimum wage, so they want you to use a card for tipping.

Your server probably still prefers you to leave the line blank and tip in cash though.

A lot of people like bigger vehicles. For ages, big cars drove poorly, absolutely guzzled gas, and lacked features. Over the past 20 years, auto makers basically solved all of these issues.

A lot of big vehicles drive much better for what most people do - straight driving on highway. Fuel economy is “good enough”. Large trucks and SUVs have great feature sets. On top of all of that, large vehicles seat more, hold more, and generally still fit in most parking spaces and garages.

People just want big cars

Show HN: Sumochess, chess variant where you push pieces out
We made a prototype for a chess variant where you have to push pieces off the board to take them (the king can still capture).
What I like about it is that it seems more intense than normal chess, as the game doesn't get simplified much as it goes on, because most of the pieces stay on the board since they are hard to get rid of. And you can make some cunning moves with a well-placed push. I had lots of games where I was in desperate situations and was able to reverse the course, and vice versa, which I believe makes it quite entertaining until the end, and there is not such a big focus on taking a simple pawn for example.

What do you think of it?

I played it a lot but I still don't know if there is some strategy or opening that would make the game unplayable for the opponent. If that were the case, the rules would need to be tweaked I guess.

the common diet is from four to three (a left turn lane), which is actually better for traffic flow, since left turners now have a dedicated pocket and don't block traffic, fewer people get rear ended, etc.

the problem with how the US does bike planning is that the payoff doesn't happen unless you have a bike network; biking is so unsafe on regular roads that a partial journey on bike lanes doesn't cut it. so often bike lanes get poor usage than they would otherwise get due to lack of connectivity.
Our head of department basically put the kibosh on everyone's massive enthusiasm for migrating more and more MySQL systems to postgres, because once upon a time someone tried to run a schema change and postgres seemed to never be able to give the schema change the lock.

I don't see why many people complaining on this issue. Not everyone mastered English unfortunately. I am especially very weak at writing a paper, and to be honest, find it taxing. I love research but after having results, turning it into a paper is not fun. I edit almost everything important I write like emails and papers with LLMs because even though the content is nice my writing feels very bland and lacks lots of transition. I believe many people do this and actually, this helps you learn over time. However, what you learn is to write like LLMs since basically we are supervised by the LLM.
It also works better for people's egos. Saying and trying things that might end up being wrong means a willingness to not only accept failure, but failure that might end up making you look stupid. By contrast appeal to 'what everybody knows' in a given time and you can never be wrong. Because even when you are wrong it can easily be hand-waved away as, once again, 'well everybody thought...'

Though, thankfully for humanity - not "everybody"!
