co2 levels are an inverse proxy for incoming fresh air fraction. this is of course inversely correlated with pathogen concentration (presuming that fresh incoming air from outside is relatively pathogen-free).

they aren’t directly correlated, it’s just a proxy. ventilation reduces both.

Get rid of that voice asap. Guided tutorials are always an immediate turnoff to me, but when that voice came out of nowhere I immediately noped out.
Picking out the statistical outliers are not that hard, but will this not have diminishing returns? As soon as the cheaters learns that being too obvious gets you banned they'll change up how they play. Eventually there wont be much difference between the really good players and cheaters, is some false positives okay here?

Many cheaters were already trying to not be obvious, most I've encountered playing various fps games are not the typical spinbot in csgo. Instead they might play with only wallhack, aimtrigger, or even no hack, and only turn on the big hacks halfway through a game if they're not winning or think someone on the other team is hacking as well. In some games they use bots to dunk their stats when not playing.

AI detection is also coming to videogames with anybrain.gg, but seems like these can be countered with AI enhanced cheats no?

As an experienced player with an anti cheat/cheating/security interest it doesn't seem like statistics is the silver bullet you claim it to be, at least as your only detection/protection. It combined with normal protection/detection methods is likely what Riot is doing.

Show HN: I added rizz to social media apps
Sup HN?

Now you can chat someone up in any style you want on Instagram, Messenger, and WhatsApp.

I made this Android app that gives you reply suggestions or rewrites your message in funny, flirty, formal, and other styles.

Just tap on the AI icon on your chat bar and see creative responses in the keyboard area. You can do this in 50+ languages.

You can see it in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjL1UKV25dM

It's free to try (link in title). Buy me a beer/coffee if you get a date after using it :)

P.S. I built this app because I got fired from my job and wanted to send a big F U to the system!
Open Source Support reasons. If Linux developers want better MAUI support there is a "Community Repo" to contribute to and help move things further along. The impression is that if things were further along it might get formally "adopted" (by the Dotnet Foundation) for "official" out-of-the-box "support", but it isn't far enough along and doesn't seem to have enough contributors with enough momentum. It currently seems that the Venn Diagram of "Developers that say they want MAUI support for Linux" and "Developers that would contribute to Linux support for MAUI" has too small of an intersection.

Sure, Microsoft could pay more employees to work on it faster, but Linux loves and prefers open source from Linux devs "untainted by Microsoft", right?

Your immune system has different "compartments." The mucosal immune compartment produces its own antibodies and its own immune response. The "jab" did not immunize the mucosal immune compartment, so people could and did catch and spread Covid - but they were protected from developing a serious infection because the virus was unable to spread in their body further. As it invades through your respiratory system, vaccinating the mucosal immune compartment means its stopped at the point of entry and does not spread to others or develop into even a mild case.

Just so you know you can log rr.SeriesPoint(color=(0, 0, 255), marker_size=1.5) in the same call as rr.Scalar(peak.value) if you want. You could also skip logging the rr.SeriesPoint altogether and include it in your blueprint (as a component override or default). That way you can more clearly separate styling from data. Either way I hear you on the added complexity. At the end of the day it came down to trading off simplicity vs expressiveness on this one.

Totally hear you on the "make it easier to have AI that doesn't hallucinate" thing. We should definitely do something in that area. Just haven't managed to get the cycles in to do so yet

I agree, monospace without color and some formatting is like giving up a sense or spatial dimension. It's pointless austerity.

Trying to force ever more restrictive and intrusive controls upon players won't solve cheating. The only way to "solve" cheating is with https://xkcd.com/810/. Use statistical analysis and server-side controls (fog of war, lockstep calculations) to force cheaters to play indistinguishable from top human players. If you can't tell the difference, does it even matter?

> the types of dongles used for this are likely detectable in some way by kernel-level anticheat, and computer vision based cheats probably work better when you can inject contrasting color textures into the game

If you've ever worked in broadcast or volunteered for conference, lecture or house of worship broadcasting, you'll know there's an entire industry of cheap undetectable HDCP-removing HDMI splitters and capture cards. It's an open secret that conference AV relies on shitty $10 chinese HDMI splitters to make HDCP "work".

Similarly, there's a countless number of devices that can present themselves as any other USB device. You can MitM e.g. a keyboard or controller and inject packets that are impossible to distinguish from the users' own inputs.

Some consoles only allow wireless controllers with encrypted protocols, but that can be circumvented too. Replacing the joysticks in controllers with hall-effect ones is a common mod. It's possible to attach another chip inbetween at this point to inject custom inputs.

You can use these injected inputs to e.g. compensate for recoil. But you can also run a simple classifier on the HDMI video to identify objects and players.

Now sure, an anti-cheat could use statistical analysis to measure how quickly a player reacts, which would allow detecting such cheats. At this point it won't matter whether you're using kernel, userland or server-side anticheat though, as they've all got the same information available to them.

No, I never have. I actually can't remember ever buying anything through an ad at all (but can't say it's never happened). When I need to buy something, I tend to seek it out myself and so I'm not going through an ad. If I don't need to buy something, then ads are irrelevant in the first place.

Except that AMD was never competing with Intel for graphics. Their competition was always Nvidia who's drivers and SW support was net superior. Intel was happy to just serve the ultra low end market with integrated GPUs for rendering MS Office back when AMD didn't even have integrated GPUs in it's chips.

Also, on this tangent since you brought up Intel, their Linux driver support is net superior to that of AMD. I have laptops with Intel CPUs (8th gen, 6th gen and 3rd gen) and Ryzen (5000 and 7000 series) and on the Intel ones linux is way more "Just Works" than on AMD. Sample zise of one person of course.

Been 14 years at my ex employer. 9.5 employees, one chef and his chef in other company. Done shit and ripped my heart out for a penny of salary. Wasn't a problem until they employed a 52y old and she can't even do excel and shit so she started to do the boss and telling me and my colleague what we should do, without even understanding what we do.. after a while she got promoted. So we had 3 bosses. Then she started to bossing us two around and then they fired me because I spoke up and they needed to reduce to 9 employees. Me, who can do everything from a to z, knows all the problems and processes and who could do everything alone and actually have done that. The whole success of the company in the last 12 years was solely on my and my colleagues shoulders.

Sounds like you found a great employer who actually invests in their people.

2.5x in 10 years is about a 10% annual raise. I've always had great performance reviews but never broke 10%. I'm at 3x salary over 8 years, but almost all of that gain came from switching jobs.

So a lot of people end up job hopping because internal raises are rarely competitive. That and a lot of companies are poorly managed and it gets old after a few years.
That logic doesn't pass a sniff test at all.

No and it's not even close. Kotlin only has a single Jetbrains Compose (I presume Kotlin Multiplatform is the same thing). It is also subject to the quirks and specifics of JVM implementations, build-systems and package management. Kotlin native partially bypasses this, but its performance is a factor of 0.1-0.01x vs OpenJDK (if there is new data - please let me know). This is very unlike NativeAOT which is on average within 90% of CoreCLR JIT but is also a performance improvement in variety of scenarios.

C# and F# get to enjoy the integration that is "much closer to the metal" as well as much richer cross-platform GUI frameworks ecosystem with longer history.

There is also a question of if after operation dark storm, was there any other power source suitable to be able to power all of the machines? Even if they did not have a law against genocide (which considering the resets that happen in the matrix killing all but 15? 16? whatever the number is not sure that law exists), like Operation Dark Storm was a last ditch effort, was this also a last ditch effort on the machines side.

But at the same time the theory that maybe they are against genocide in some form is backed up by Smith talking about how the original matrix was going to be a utopia. That doesn't seem like the kind of thing you would do to the people you are fighting (and just tried to wipe you out completely), if it wasn't for some ethical guidelines.

Fuel would be a limited resource. I know that a lot of people point out that on a biological sense it does not make sense, but we also see Neo being pretty frail when he wakes up. Does that biological problem still stand up when your body is frail and it is basically just your brain and basic processes. Throw in that your not eating real food, likely optimized for as little energy lost to process that food.

Something that I don't think any of the media touched on, but would it be crazy to think that the machines could have made genetic modifications to support this.

As someone with a good deal of networkimg knowledge, yeah, most people don't have very much.

You can do a lot without knowing anything about routing, and very little about protocols. And all those network people always seem grumpy, why learn about it if you don't want to be grumpy. ;p

Edit to add: how networking works in reality and how networking works in books and coursework tends to be quite different as well. GeoDNS and Anycast IP are a big conceptual jump for people who only understood networks from coursework. There's also a common assumption that routing protocols favor least distance routing which is certainly not the case. I may be obsessed with path MTU problems, but that's a real hard concept to explain to experienced tech people with slim networking knowledge. Also, a lot of people seem to believe the OSI model is fact and not a model of the world; it's not unuseful, but there's lots of hardware and software that operates at more than one OSI layer simultaneously and people stuck on a rigid model can have an incorrect view of the world which impedes their problem solving.
Discord chat, Expat licence, GitHub repository... perhaps we also need a good UI library that manifests a greater desire to cultivate user rights. I'd say that's just as important as technological advancement, if not more.

Putting the ethical dilemmas aside, I'd like to know how such bioprocessors could possibly have:

>million times greater power efficiency when compared to digital processors

if bioprocessors have to support("run" the metabolism) all their organelles, including parts that are not at all involved in the signal processing, which is I suppose >99% of the cell, compared to digital processors that we literally built with the sole purpose of performing such operations and have logical gates close in size to the single layer of atoms already?

If you dramatically redefine random to include choices between useful outcomes (ie. the non random boundary conditions to the decision tree), then Occam’s razor works well here.
Your take directly contradicts my personal experience. 10 years ago I had a crappy internet connection that went down to as little as 10KB/s (severe network congestion and building management didn't care). YouTube served 144p video when every other video site went down only to 240p or even 320p, which was unusable on this connection.

It's not "too many options". It's the same problem as you had before. Your prospects don't know what they would use the product for, so they mess around and make something useless. If they had an idea, they would build that.

These people are not likely to be your customers, I wouldn't be focused on them as much as the people who are getting it and using it with intent.

I also spent almost a decade at my first out-of-college corporate job. Had a great team, slowly shifted from company-specific ERP and niche client-server software to web development. It was very comfortable for a long time.

I left after internal changes started demoting my team to support and maintenance, HIPPO and all that. I don't regret staying there for how long I did: I gained a width of non-company-specific experience to find other positions. And turns out, I left at the right time, too: company was involved in a political scandal and my former coworkers are now officially "application configuration specialists" instead of "developers".
