I've noticed how many wikis for games I look up are on fandom and, probably because of my experience with web development, I take special note of the fact that they're always at game-name.fandom.com (I'm also a bit disappointed, like when I bought Chrono Trigger on Steam and looked up why the cat wouldn't follow me). I don't think I've ever seen a wiki with their branding/style that is not also on their domain. Perhaps some exist which use their software but I've never heard of such a vendor then also demanding a new style to be used, though I guess that's possible.

Anyway, I've always doubted it to be an accident that seemingly all of their wikis are hosted on the same domain[1]. Glad to see someone doing good work about that, even if it's just incidental while they solve a different problem. Seeing the official LoL wiki on leagueoflegends.com suggests they don't intend to do the same sort of -- admittedly presumed -- widespread tracking.

Regardless, it sounds like the wiki maintainers prefer working with Weird Gloop rather than Fandom and I don't otherwise have a lot of sympathy for Fandom. I have no specific bone to pick with them but I also can't help but feel glad for people who are finding other wiki software vendors.

(It's also kind of interesting to see the Minecraft wiki at minecraft.wiki instead of something like wiki.minecraft.com. I guess it's a community project, just noting that Microsoft/Mojang don't seem interested in maintaining it(?). Maybe the community prefers it that way and they're respecting that.)

1: Turns out it definitely is not an accident: https://support.fandom.com/hc/en-us/articles/360021258554-I-...

Have to agree, 3 body problem is fascinating from technological future fantasy perspective, but high quality reading overall in English it was not. Shallow characters, very pro-china and anti-whole-western-world black&white mindset that modern free world grew away long time ago.

Had to force myself reading to the end of trilogy, above goes into overdrive.

>If it can't generate profit

This wasn't exactly the question. The question was about growth. A company could be very profitable without growth (say, they own a mine which produces $40 million worth of ore each year with expenses of $10 million with no end in sight) or can have growth without profit (Open AI is a great example, or for history, the first 5 years of Facebook.)

I know most of stock investing is about capital gains and not dividends, but I think GP was saying it's inherently impossible to have growth forever.

On a financial level I get why people prefer to invest their money in a stock that goes up rather than one that pays them 8% a year consistently in dividends, but it seems unfortunate that somehow it seems like we aren't allowed to just have sustainable companies that don't depend on infinite growth to stay in business.
I'm paying about 50% tax rate here in NL (we have a very high income), I just wish that those who have 10x and more than our income also had to pay a 50% tax rate. Only our tax rules have been written so that those who are very rich don't pay their fair share.
I literally just saw those for the first time. As I understand it they’re still plastic lined and the energy efficiency depends on how much recycling takes place. It depends if eliminating plastics is what you really care about or not.
>Where do you think the money for the Clinton Foundation came from, for example?

Bill attended Georgetown and Yale (where he met Hilary), was governor of Arkansas for 12 years and had a short stint of running the country before the foundation was founded. Hilary was a director at a school of law and worked under Carter's administration, and had decades of other legal feats before entering the senate right after founding the foundation.

If those two can't network in those 30 years for funds, then America as a whole is a sham.
> enshittifies

Can we stop using that terrible term?

I get what you're trying to say: I too have very strong feelings about Vercel, it's lock in, it's operating model, and some underlying technical decisions they've made. But individually those are points that (if the company is listening) Vercel will address or go out of business.

There's no nuance in that way of thinking. Market forces will determine whether or not the company will succeed. But it's the obligation of the decision makers in your company to decide whether or not the problems that Vercel has are worth the risks and to what degree. There may be a tipping point - an enshittification point - at which the risks are no longer tenable. The way the term is commonly used doesn't make that clear - you've basically declared that the company will go south. Maybe it will, or maybe they'll listen to their customers.
what a briliant idea, most of my meeting i had to share my 4K screen with laptop pals and most of the time i had to zoom so they can see. now it's solved.
How would I find such a company?
Is good English translation of her works available? If so, please share. I like good prose and want to read and understand how is her prose different. Thanks.
That’s base compensation. They aren’t reporting equity, which is usually at least 1/3 to 1/2 total compensation.
Yes, by Blair Kinsman. There are a few errors in the equations of the first edition. Minus signs that should be plus signs and things like that. My copy was stamped "University of Alberta" as the University of Calgary only became an independent institution in 1967.

If you're interested in this topic, my second-favourite was Biology and the Mechanics of the Wave-Swept Environment by Mark W. Denny. The books are both good overviews of the subject of ocean waves and they have a folky charm that makes them quite enjoyable.

Fascinating video! One of my favorite train vids is a Taurus starting up in frigid conditions. As the wheels slip and the PWM modulation on the individual motors varies to keep traction, it makes beautiful music.

Ukraine already joined the NPT, in the 1990s. That's a done deal.

Ukraine does not automatically leave the NPT just because Russia violated the Budapest Memorandum; such a mechanism linking the two does not exist. Ukraine would have to explicitly leave the NPT, which they will not do.
When I'm talking about velocity, I'm not talking about coding fast, but being able to write DRY, flexible yet easily maintainable code that can weather future requirements / refactorings easily. Personally, I'm also talking in the context of my own projects so nobody is breathing down my neck or pressuring me with time. I just want to write good code that is a joy to maintain for years to come.

I know block storage backends is all the rage, but this is about the most capital intensive thing you can do on the major cloud providers. Storage and reads are cheap, but writes and list operations are insanely expensive.

Once you hook these backends up to real-time streaming updates, transactions, heavy indexing, or immutable backends that cause constant churn (hive/hudi/iceberg/delta lake), you're in for a bad time financially.
China and India, but even Africa not driving human progress in any meaningful way? They are not perfect countries with a western eye, but you should read a bit more on what goes on outside the western hemisphere. Or just look at the label of all your electronics.

Actually, there's plenty of obnoxious "pro-Palestinian" material out there as well, glorifying Operation al-Aqsa Flood, "martyrs" from other random attacks on civilians, not to mention the propaganda that there's no such thing as "Israeli civilian" anyway, and so forth. There's no need to go looking for it on the IA because they're quite proud of this stuff and are churning it out constantly. See also: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41692193

BTW I'm a non-Zionist and strongly opposed to the occupation, etc. So please don't make any assumptions that I'm a hasbarist coming at you with their usual stuff. The depressingly tragic fact of this conflict is that there are legions of assholes and extremely naive, easily manipulated people on all sides.
Wouldn’t it be nice if we could adjust resolution per window?

On a 4k monitor some applications have tiny text and icons, and no way adjust that I can find.
>Come to think of it, wasn't there a much more vibrant browser ecosystem in the late 90s and early 2000s, before Google used its dominant position in the ad market to undercut the competition?

No? It used to be IE and Mozilla, and now it's Edge, Chrome, and Mozilla. Opera existed then and now, and probably more people use it now, but it's still small enough that no one cares. I suppose you could make a point about Edge using Chrome's engine, but that's because the IE one sucked and the new one Microsoft made for Edge sucked so they eventually switched to using Chrome's. But the idea that the browser market was somehow better back in the day is hilarious and wrong.

>There used to be a lot more mobile operating systems out there, too.

Not really. I suppose early on during the smartphone era, blackberry was still around, but they mostly lost out due to Apple finally getting decent MDM, and not bothering to improve their product after a while, than the fact that Android was growing in popularity. Microsoft entered kinda late and never really developed their phone OS enough and eventually gave up, but that's because their product wasn't good enough, not because of anything the others were doing to stop them.
That may be what the pentagon believes and desires others to believe…

But since those in other world capitals aren’t mind readers nor can they inspect every department and facility to verify these claims, then it’s practically certain they will assume negative intentions to some degree…?
But this is apples and oranges. Process 1 creates and calls lambdas, etc.

A proper comparison could be:

# Case 1.
for n in range(len(data)):
data[n] = transform1(data[n])
data[n] = transform2(data[n])

# Case 2.
for n in range(len(data)):
data[n] = transform1(data[n])
for n in range(len(data)):
data[n] = transform2(data[n])
The way it works in the western world is that small population areas are so low density its mainly detached single family buildings. Many old and poorly insulated by todays standards. Not a lot of very small attached building style towns and villages being made these days. People like space it seems over absolute efficiency.
Assuming your product is for individuals, I would listen to my customers, and move away from services and towards the "purchase once" model of old, guaranteeing maybe 1 or 2 major updates.

If your product is for business and production, I would simply remove the lifetime purchase option.
Very cool. Does it require the "screen recording" indication to be up the entire time whether screen recording is happening or not? I don't see any info in the repo but I recall some previous solutions would effectively appear to be recording all the time.

EDIT: unfortunately it does. But if it's designed for screen sharing, it's probably not a big deal. Unfortunately there's no easy way to mirror on OSX without this, AFAIK. This particular issue is annoying for certain USB-C video adapters that create a virtual screen and mirror it over an arbitrary protocol.
Yeah no, definitely he is not half as smart as the actual scientits and engineers doing the hard work, yeah he might be a great PR Agent but that's it, as I was saying above I really hope we as society can evolve on to appreciating and praising more and more the actual hands-on work of people in the labs or on the fields rather than the PR agents pretending to know it all.
With bananas this is fine, they can ripen at home. It's the limes, pineapples, and other fruit which don't ripen after picking which are the problem.
I reported up to Mary for a while at Automattic and she's a fantastic leader with low/no tolerance for drama or egos. I think .org is lucky to have her and I'm hopeful she'll bring true product leadership and perspective to it.
And vice versa. So many English works translated to Korean read like chewing sand.

It doesn't help that books don't sell well in Korea and translators are poorly paid. Often you can literally see "Oh the original English word must be X, because it doesn't make sense and the translator just used the more popular meaning of the word!"
In Canada, consumer prices across every expense category have roughly doubled over the last 9 years, implying an annual inflation rate of 8%.

Anyone with a calculator and the “Rule of 72” can independently verify this as fact.

That every government mouthpiece intones the party dogma doesn’t change this fact.

Your government is lying to you.
IMO Apple and Google app store are the same thing.

It'd be ridiculous if Epic sued Pepsi and Coca Cola for something about their Soda and the same court ruled against Pepsi but for Coca Cola.

I hate that MCW ultimately ended up with Fandom in the end. Keeping MCW and the other wikis running smoothly was essentially my one huge passion in my life that I lost after Fandom acquired Curse. No one wanted it to happen that way. Even internally at Curse/Gamepedia we were all devastated when we learned that the company was buying bought out by the rival we were striving to overcome all those years. I am so glad to see after the past few years that the wikis are finally healing and going to places that are better for them.

[1] I'm the tech lead/manager that worked on Gamepedia at Curse that administered Minecraft MCW for many years before Fandom bought Curse in December 2018. I'm just writing this here since I figure other readers won't have any idea. ヾ(≧▽≦*)o
TypedDicts are better than you think
My understanding of the heart rate correlation to lifespan between different species is that it is “within a couple levels of magnitude” and that an increase of 10% in a human’s rate does not correlate at all to a 10% decrease in lifespan
The case for higher population is that population growth brings economic growth, which brings prosperity.

> Let's fix the growth-based economies and move on with fewer but better-off people.

Fewer people is easy, but fewer-but-better-off people seems very difficult. The wealth- and tax-revenue-creating capacity of the stock market (which has been going up at an inflation-adjusted average of ~6% annually since the late 1800s, driven by growth) simply cannot be replaced. With compounding 5% returns, saving 10K/year will net you a ~$700K nest egg over 30 years. With a flat market, you'd only have $300K.

Backspace was overloaded whenever text input fields on the page were involved, so accidentally pressing that to mean something else entirely and losing data as the result was too common to not address. Escape OTOH was never used for anything else in browsers, as far as I remember.

Or we could try to accept that everyone makes mistakes and that's fine. Scientific advancement is basically making slightly fewer mistakes.

My bachelor's thesis was pretty terrible and there probably is not much to learn from it for an expert. It would have been helpful to me to read other peoples thesis when I was a student though and maybe that would have led to a better outcome.

At least here in Germany, a lot of the funding to do the research comes from the government. As a tax payer, I'd like to be able to know the outcome of the research. I am sure there are some real gems in there too.

If a student has reasonable concerns, I would be fine with it not getting published. I believe that the default should be that it gets published.
DF had a massive update probably a decade or more ago that changed the game from 2D to 3D (still represented as 2D z-levels though). With such a change, obviously some people would want to stick with the old version. There have been numerous large updates since then (the game has been in development for 22 years) and with each you get some people that just don’t want to update, either because it might ruin their current games or they prefer to avoid new features etc.

Another example is the various Dungeon and Dragons wikis that allow you to toggle between versions, since it has existed for 50 years now.
Similar rule seems to apply to avocados. They sell them as "ripe and ready" and a week later they're still too hard to crush.
Taxes make a government accountable to citizens. While not paying taxes because of oil wealth might seem enticing in the short term, it'll lead to disaster in the long term if a government becomes accountable mainly to the resource industry and neglects to invest in a diversified, productive economy.

Norway has high tax rates despite having oil wealth-- this ensures citizens remain productive and don't get too complacent by depending on a fluctuating commodity.
It's a global phenomenon but it's only crazy in the US, like most things
It's too easy to just use OBS for this, in my opinion. Add the pipewire display capture, add a filter to crop it to a corner, stretch that container to fit the stage, open the window in the corner. Fairly simple.
If you know you need something, great! You don't need advertisements. But there are a lot of things that you never would have thought of if they hadn't been advertised to you. Things that you would now consider necessities. Like toilets. You better believe it took a ton of advertising to get everybody to stop crapping in holes or buckets. I'm sure those people were annoyed by those advertisements too.
More like the difference between a beer and grain alcohol.
Have you mentioned this to your doctor? There are different types of blood pressure medications. Some will lower your heart rate.

Don’t forget Apple’s GamePortingToolkit based on Crossover/Wine and the open source client for it Whisky. I think it supports most games Linux Proton does now.
Yeah, I think using the same concept you did for the charts, use that for the tabular info. I can imagine using those dash's and bars would eventually get annoying to create a decent size table.

In this case I'm talking strictly about his persona, on-stage performance, and overall "vibe". To an extent, these traits are orthogonal to his claimed policy/politics in the traditional sense, which I agree are basically a continuation and in particular areas an amplification of earlier trends in the Republican party. Eg, I grew up in Houston in the 80s and 90s with parents that listened to Rush Limbaugh on a regular basis, so the general direction of intent isn't unexpected. The way in which that intent is expressed is however well outside what would have ever made it to the "main stage" 20-30 years ago. It's a culmination of decades of propagandic ground laying. I suppose "any political setting" was too broad a claim. I was implicitly ignoring anything short of running for national office.
I'd love to see this put through it's paces with the following:

I have a strategy for benchmarking such data-structures, I call it the "birthday benchmark".

Unfortunately I'm not proficient enough in Rust to have put it into practice there, but the strategy is this:

Generate a stream of random bytes, pre-generation is advised to avoid dominating the benchmark.

Consume the stream in blocks of n bytes.

Try to find a duplicated block.

Given the "birthday paradox / birthday attack", this is actually much quicker than it might first appear. Simple single-thread basic hashset can find duplicates at a 6-byte length match in around 3 seconds on my hardware, and a specialised data-structure takes this to less than a second.

A good concurrent hashtable should improve that greatly even further, because this ought to be a very parallelizable problem, especially if you're not constrained to finding the first such duplicate in the stream, but allow yourself to find any duplicate, nor are constrained to keep track of both sides of the pair, and are content with simply knowing you have found one.
This is very reassuring. Usually, I assume agreements between different groups will inordinately benefit one party, but this particular agreement sounds like it creates a more level playing field.

And besides, it's not like non-profits are exempt from restructuring and becoming worse. There is no silver bullet.
Depends on whether you think it’s possible for property to be used as a means of curtailing individual liberty, or whether individual liberty is fundamentally rooted in private property. I believe the former, and as such I find libertarianism to be ideologically inconsistent.
I really like this concept. especially for the use case where I need to share my whole screen, but just want a "sandbox" of sorts to share. Typically have gotten around this with a secondary monitor that I share with, but that doesn't work when I'm on the go with my laptop. Will def be using this
Thats great feedback - thank you! I would then assume most people would end up using open source models as they tend to be cheaper with faster inference
