> they generally turned out to be too “puzzly” for me

Loom, I think, was like that sometimes, but Monkey Island wasn't too bad. Sierra's King's Quest series, however, was notorious in this respect, where the thing to do was something arbitrary you could not reason to in a million years.

That's the kind of thing that sucks in adventure games. In real life, I can be creative to a very large degree because reality has content, specifically, to the degree that I grasp that reality. A ball of clay is a ball of clay, and because I understand what clay is, I know what I can do with it. But in a game, a ball of clay is just a symbol. There is no ball of clay. It is a nominal entity, an image or word plus some code that simulates maybe some aspects of it in very constrained ways (in adventure games, this is truly very narrow, as in, if user clicks these two things with this action, then show picture and display text, the end). And this might be okay if the author has arranged things sensibly, but sometimes you end up with truly bizarre ideas. You wonder how these things passed QA.
If we're going off of rarity, December 25 has 6,574 average yearly births and September 9 has almost double at 12,301 average yearly births.

Taking a look at Feb 29th, it has 10467 average yearly births (for years that have a Feb 29th).

So what is the level of rarity that makes a day not worth calculating?

"Harmonielehre" by Dieter de la Motte is an excellent book that does exactly this. He explicitely points out that harmony must always be understood and analyzed in context. "Kontrapunkt", his book on counterpoint, follows the same principle and is just as good. I think/hope there are English translations.

This writeup is significantly better than the OP link. Should probably be the article of record.

The section on constant flow vs. variable flow to simulate a heartbeat got me thinking about how weird it would feel to have no pulse, or what it’d be like to experience a moment of excitement/adrenaline without the accompanied pounding in my chest.
It was pretty fun.

The -intended- purpose was Dual Athlon MPs.

That said, AFAIK some early AXPs could be used, many later ones could have the bridges 'repaired' to allow dual operation.

Early Morgan core (Model 7) Durons however could also run MP.

One big pain point however, the built in USB was broken on early revs (but hey, they bundled a PCI USB2.0 card to compensate) but also the chipset was... -meh-.

But wow it was a solid board!

I've played a lot of Minecraft and I still remember beta 1.7.3 very fondly -- albeit for different reasons -- but I want to offer a differing perspective.

I have always struggled with balancing my desire to create with my capability to create, in and out of Minecraft. I would get so inspired by all the awesome things people built, that I could never graduate from my barebones cave-with-chests because my desire to make something great made any attempt feel crummy in comparison. The most I would accomplish was making redstone contraptions because -- to be a little reductionist -- those either work or they don't.

I hope you will pardon my digression, but the point I'm getting to is that in beta 1.7.3, the goals you set for yourself, and therefore the reasons for you to keep playing, were largely creative in nature, like building a cool house. Updates past this point gave players the opportunity to make simpler, game-directed goals. It used to be that you reach resource satiation quickly, but now it will take hours to obtain a fully enchanted set of diamond armor, kill the ender dragon, explore all the new generated structures, etc. In later years they've codified these goals in achievements, including crazy ones like getting every positive and negative effect at the same time or exploring every biome. With these updates, the people who enjoy building cool things also got more cool things to build with, but this has in my opinion been a little more secondary.

I understand why people might be disappointed, or at least confused, by Minecraft's updates now pushing it toward "pesudo-RPG" status, but I have at least welcomed these changes because they gave me and my friends a reason to reboot our server every few years to try out the new stuff.

Although I will add that if your gripe is regarding combat/pvp changes (e.g. shields) then yeah I have nothing to add to that discussion.

EDIT: I also agree with sibling comments about more content = more enjoyment, at least for me. I enjoy playing games where there are just a lot of things to learn and know.
Rtl-sdr blog v3 has a direct sampling mode that will get you into the single-digit mhz.

I assume that the v4 does as well. The earlier versions apparently also have this mode but it requires opening the devices up and a bit of soldering here and there.

Do you need UltraScale(+)? The Tang Mega 138k has way fewer LUTs than most US+ chips, it's a completely different class of FPGA.

You can purchase a SQRL FK33 (VU33P on PCIE cards) for $250 used in the Dream escrow Discord. Here's one on eBay for $400 (a little steep) - this is the cheapest you will get into UltraScale+: https://www.ebay.com/itm/387229340513 This is also the cheapest way to obtain 8GB of HBM, which you will want for a GPU eventually.

For $1000ish, you can get a C1100 (VU35P, 2x the area of VU33P, 8GB HBM) - https://www.ebay.com/itm/186414684753 - these do not require a Vivado license.

For $600-1300 you can get VCU1525 (VU9P - no HBM) boards used: https://www.ebay.com/itm/326206486963

For new stuff, you could get 7 Series Kintex devboards from China: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805175295035.html
One thing I especially like about developing data-heavy financial apps in Windows Forms is the DataGridView control. High density and high performance with filtering, sorting, and drag-and-drop column reordering and resizing. No paging required; if you want to stick 10,000 rows in there, that's fine. Most of the UIs we write are screens full of DataGridView panes. Ugly? Yes. Fast? Also yes.

My attempts to write similar UIs in React have mostly been failures due to poor performance. I resorted to bypassing React entirely for data tables in order to get acceptable render performance. Even then, I have to minimize the number of DOM elements per row so that the browser rendering itself isn't unacceptably slow.
Thanks for debunking my answer so comprehensively. Cannot disagree.
I guess I’m just a bit obsessed with Golden Age Microsoft, having grown up during that time without understanding much of what was going on. My original point, though, was that they had some very nice, perhaps thesis-chapter-worthy points that ended up buried in the specifics of (and on more than one occasion, in the same grave as) their products.

Windows’s, well, windows as a object/concurrency system are one (even if the Win32 transition to multithreading is IMO conceptually botched). The actor model admittedly already existed at that point, but Mark Miller et al.’s work on E (the only other source I know for having separate synchronous and asynchronous sends) hadn’t even started at that point. (There are innumerable papers on various versions of actors, though, so I might have missed it.)

COM aggregation is another. It would probably have been much more successful had they used fat pointers, and there are a couple of old papers pointing this approach is a viable way to do implementation (as opposed to interface) inheritance. But I know of no precedent in the literature for the inside-out way WinRT builds its allegedly more conventional inheritance mechanism on it. (I guess I would’ve referenced BETA if I were writing a paper on it?)

DCOM’s “causality IDs” for reentrancy control are yet another. You can basically have calls to your object guarded by a recursive mutex whose ownership is passed along with any remote calls that that object itself makes. I’m not sure they are a good idea (recursive mutexes are perilous in the simplest of situations, and this is most definitely not one of those), but I’m almost certain it’s an original one.

That’s it, for now, but I’m almost certain I could find more, if only I knew where to look.
I’m surprised you read moralism from what I said despite it being such an ostensibly immoral concept. Moralism would advocate for the Good Thing (tm), saving people, in other words.

Im actually advocating more of a pragmatism take on the situation by saying that we’re all worse off having so many more people with uncontrollable impulses. And I really didn’t even touch on the implications of divorcing actions from consequences.

Granted, this is a false dichotomy on a large enough time scale, unless you define morality as some specific set of beliefs rather than the more abstract “doing the right thing”

I am of course criticizing the ignorant application of morality in general, but ironically truly utilitarian morality and pragmatism happen to coincide in this case

> Such a pump has no valves, so a patient using the Bivacor heart in its most basic mode would have no pulse. But we recently adapted our device to give it a pulsatile outflow option.

> The pump can run at constant speed, producing continuous blood flow at a constant pressure, and in our early experiments we concentrated on testing this “pulseless” mode. But it’s easy to change its speed, and our later experiments proved that controlled speed changes could produce a wide range of flow and pressure characteristics. Running the pump first at high speed (sending out more blood) and then at low speed (sending out less) creates something resembling a biological heart’s pulse; rapidly alternating these two speeds creates something that looks like a normal heartbeat.

> We’re now working primarily in that pulsatile mode. Within cardiology, there’s an open debate about whether a pulse is necessary for good health… [0]

I don't know that it's an "innovation" as much as a lucky break.

I would say it's one of Minecraft's systemic flaws, actually. It greatly constrains how smooth exploration can be in what is otherwise an interesting world to explore.
I wonder if they prescribe something like walking or jogging as a substitute "repetitive movement" to get things moving.

When I invited adult gamers onto our server, I found they spent a long time trying to figure out basic stuff - like picking up a block. It was really frustrating for them.

That was years ago and IDK if basic gameplay changed. If not, they may want to have an 8yo on hand.
Up until fairly recently the only people who treated music like a science were people who did not have much if anything to do with music beyond listening and thinking about it. When composers and musicians started treating music like a science (or math) people tended to complain about it and "reduce" it to academic wankery.

Pythagoras and Descartes had more to do with criticism and theory than anything anyone was listening to or composing, which was instrumental in the development of western theory. I don't think we have any music following the ideas of the Pythagoreans until the mid/late 20th century, anyone know of earlier examples?

For exactly what? Show the lowest cost provider in "traditional finance" and the cost using some blockchain for an end to end transaction that someone actually wants to do. What you are going to find is that the underlying cost structure for a few updates to a few relational dbs is about zero. The fees paid for some transactions having are a result of using the most convenient method possible. With a little bit of elbow grease you will find very cheap providers of everything in traditional finance, they'll just be a little more annoying to use.
A great deal has been written on this but the vast bulk requires a solid understanding of theory, Cambridge's History of Western Music Theory gives a lifetimes worth of material to study on this topic.
This is a small thing, but I think you should decouple providers in case shit hits the fan with one of them.

> 10x developers will turn 100x developers. 1x developers will need to turn 10x and if not, they will perish.

If code behaves anything like games, we're going to knock humans out of developing entirely. I'm forecasting that "developer" will disappear as a job title and become a function of what we currently recognise as product. I would be a lot more comfortable in my career prospects if I thought being a 10x developer is good enough.

Once these models become good enough that human review of the code reduces the quality - which will probably take a little while, but looks like it is incoming - then we can probably engineer out the monkey in the middle copy-pasting code.

I'm torn on this for two reasons however.

First, I agree. Even today a lot of games have 'anti-cheat' modules that will hook into the kernel.

And yes, Microsoft wants to lock down the kernel as a result.

But, that is one step closer to the future from "The right to read".

Exactly. And systems for commercial aircraft are actually designed (by law) to be dual fault tolerant. This means that all safety critical systems on an airliner need to have 3 filly redundant, independent systems and each needs to be able to function without the other two.

In even class III (implantable and safety critical meaning the patient is harmed or killed if they fail) medical devices are only required to be single fault tolerant.

I don’t mean syntax errors - I mean the difficulty of validating code that contains side effects (like http requests, database access etc).

Validating a math proof either terminates in a reasonable time (in which case it’s useful for training), or does not (in which case the AI should be discouraged from using that approach).
From my perspective, it's the instability of the world. From market crashes to pandemics and now politics, I have no clue what kind of world I'm bringing new life into, so it gets deprioritized severely. It's something like the Maslow hierarchy of needs, and having a child is at the very top.
Complete opposite economic policies. State ownership and collectivization under Stalin, privatization and killing unions under Hitler.

The "socialism" in the name was just branding. The Hitler-wing of the Nazi party was extremely right wing, especially in economic matters, and financed by the German industry. Anyone in the party holding sympathy with strasserism and the like was quickly purged or murdered.

Asking how fascism without antisemitism would have have fared makes no sense, as having internal and external enemies is a crucial part of fascism. Pinochet in Chile might be an example where fascism wasn't particular antisemitic but I assure you it was still not great for intellectual development, on the contrary.
TL;DR:

— Zuckerberg says releasing a tunable model (without the training data set and the tools to train from it) "Open Source"

— It isn't

It's fascinating double-speak, because by any reasonable definition of the word source (i.e. something the model originates from), it's kept secret.

The weights aren't the source the model, they're the output of the training pipeline.

By that metric, Windows 95 was "open source" because you could customize the colors, the desktop background, and other parameters.

But sure, why not. His "Open Source AI" is just as open as "Open AI" in the end.
I always wonder about survivorship bias in studies correlating exercise and health. Someone with joint trouble isn't able to run much, for example. It filters those people out. No doubt there are real benefits, but simple correlation will always have that problem.
If this was the source of issues, it's still a product failure. I hope they will address it.

If I can't figure it out, 99% of others won't either.
It's a shame to describe the tritone sub for G7 as C# F G# B, when the proper way to spell it is either Db F Ab Cb or C# E# G# B. Of course, then you'd have to explain about enharmonic equivalence and how chords are usually spelled with every other note.
> at the beginning the player should have a clear vision as to what he or she is trying to accomplish. Nothing is more frustrating than wandering around wondering what you should be doing and if what you have been doing is going to get you anywhere.

I disagree. Discovering what it is you're supposed to do is one of the most exciting parts of such games. Myst is the classic example of this. It's like those movies, like the Bourne Identity, where the character wakes up and doesn't know who they are or what they are supposed to do, and has to figure it out as they go along.

> behavior modification (eat less, move more)

I don't mean to pick on you specifically, but the more I think about it, the more I suspect that "eat less, move more" might have done more damage to the weight management discourse than any other single aphorism.

In my (admittedly anecdotal) experience, trying to make both of those changes simultaneously is setting oneself up for failure to make either. I eventually found a modicum of success through multiple cycles of implementing one, and then easing into the next weeks after adjusting to the last.

Maybe some people really do need a white-hot catalytic moment to undergo their transition into proper self-determination (cue "Rules of Nature", "Before My Body is Dry", etc.), but I think most people would be better off with manageable steps that can be haltingly traversed over the course of months/years. But I guess that's too fucking boring to be a sales pitch or redemption narrative or whatever else scores points these days.

It sounds high even for India. About 40% of Indians are vegetarian, a third if we exclude those who eat eggs [1]. The part of the country where vegetarianism is most rampant, the North, is also the highest dairy-consuming part of the country [2].

In any case, while medical veganism is something to think about, it's not worth prioritising until after we have reliable artificial organs.
