What we have here is a conflict of values. That you think it is simple is insulting the values of others. Most people against abortion value females right to body autonomy: they value the right to not be murdered more.
Covid was coming to an end, and yet Democrats decided to still go on another trillion dollar spending spree, inevitably leading to inflation.

It's incorrect to characterize this as "pure economic ignorance among voters"
Not pro Trump here. The Dems failed to understand that telling people who are really struggling (my community is really struggling, it's sad to see people in the grocery store barely able to afford food, this is the reality, heck I'm struggling) that the economy is doing great isn't a winning message. They should have ran on 'we are working really hard on fixing things and this is what we have accomplished'. But a campaign telling people suffering that 'the economy is doing great' resonates 0% and just tells those struggling that the campaign doesn't see them/care that they are suffering.
So what? Just because Apple calls something retina "display" means that others cannot call stuff displays.
What are the next level of computer science books you recommend?
Beyond “Introduction to Algorithms” or the typical undergraduate course books, what are the next level of book you recommend for software engineers? Not including platform or tool specific resources.
What a subtle exponential curve!
The way it works is that rebuttals need only be at the level of evidence of the initial claim. Hitchen's Razor: "what is presented without evidence may be dismissed without evidence."

His claim is absurd on its face, due to the small quantity of minerals actually in water, compared to what is required. Food must be providing most of that input.

I'm curious where this nonsense came from. It feels like another variety of nutrition superstition.
> republicans have their own problems too by fanatic religious [...] but it by no means is representative of the average conservative.

65% of the Republicans who participated in a survey by the Pew Research Center said that laws should be influenced by the bible, and 78% said that the United States should be a Christian nation:

Single core yes, but multi core no.

The Geekbench scores cannot compare laptop CPUs with desktop CPUs, because the tasks that are executed are too short and they do not demonstrate the steady-state throughput of the CPUs. The desktop CPUs are much faster for multithreaded tasks in comparison with laptop/tablet CPUs than it appears in the GB results.

The Apple CPUs have a much better instructions-per-clock-cycle ratio than any other CPUs, and now in M4 they also have a relatively high clock frequency, of at least 4.5 GHz. This allows them to win most single-threaded benchmarks.

However the performance in multi-threaded benchmarks has a very weak dependence on the CPU microarchitecture and it is determined mostly by the manufacturing process used for the CPU.

If we were able to compare Intel, AMD and Apple CPUs with the same number of cores and made with the same TSMC process, their multithreaded performance would be very close at a given power consumption.

The reason is that executing a given benchmark requires a number of logic transitions that is about the same for different microarchitectures, unless some of the design teams have been incompetent. An Apple CPU does more logic transitions per clock cycle, so in single thread it finishes the task faster.

However in multithreaded execution, where the power consumption of the CPU reaches the power limit, the number of logic transitions per second in the same manufacturing process is determined by the power consumption. Therefore the benchmark will be completed in approximately the same number of seconds when the power limits are the same, regardless of the differences in the single-threaded performance.

At equal power, an M4 will have a slightly better MT performance than an Intel or AMD CPU, due to the better manufacturing process, but the difference is too small to make it competitive with a desktop CPU.

In 2008 these things could have been changed but Obama was too interested in bipartisanship.
No, the purges will take out the entire senior leadership of the Democratic Party. You need to stop thinking like it’s 2020 and start thinking like it’s 1932.
Yep, the DNC has lacked the self-awareness in these past few years to gaze within and cull the cruft that 100% of their voter base hate. Superdelegates need to go. They're this generation's Korematsu (as in they are still active while people would rightfully think they're gone). I feel confident that superdelegates will come back to bite the DNC decades down the line.

In fairness, they actually did change the rules around them after 2016 but stopped short of removing them.
Barbie also has multiple characters named Barbie; There are times where Barbie is said three or four times in a single paragraph and even a sequence that's just a complete graph of Barbies saying "Hi Barbie" to each other.
In what way? In 2016 I did have people approach me for being brown. I live in a liberal white enclave in NE Portland, so this is fairly common for me. Yes, it's extremely weird.

and as for the wall. I'm just saying how I feel.
This is unrelated to viewport rotation, but I've always wanted to play with multiple inputs for posing characters. There was always a lot of interest in "full body IK" which seems like a similar idea to me. Both IK and FK imply there's an anchor point and your single (mouse) input is posing the model. With two inputs it would be more like posing a puppet where one hand anchors and the other moves. You would still have to figure out how to deal with interpolation between poses, but I would imagine posing would be more intuitive.
Liberalism and Socialism are two very different things. Liberalism is squarely in the Capitalism camp. There are no workers owning the means of production under Liberalism.

The DNC's bread and butter are Liberals. Not Socialists. Not anyone even approaching Socialist. Bernie, AOC, etc are SocDems at best. There are no Socialists in office in the United States.
This seems interesting, how do you actually decide what to fetch from the memory that is relevant? "This setup enables efficient memory retrieval based on relevance, recency, and context" -- but how does it actually "decide" what to retrieve?
Just to be clear, are you saying that the ACLU has not been pissed off at the GOP for book bans? Or are you just saying they should be mad at Amazon more?

(Because like, libertarians and the ACLU are not going to get mad at Amazon for deciding what rules they want to enforce in their own marketplace. Which makes me read your comment as just another instance of shouting “fuck the libertarians!” that I above called a phenomenal waste of conservative resources. Like, why? There shouldn't be this strange alliance between the “only government that can be trusted is a dead government” people and the fucking political Left, like, WTF if that’s what’s going on)
afcovert uses the superior inbuilt AAC converter. FFmpeg can do this as well with the right arguments but you have to dig them up and the quality is capped to a lower value than you can get with afconvert.
I found it interesting, I'd heard of guassian splats but not really appreciated how they worked, but this let me play with a model; so I'm not saying necessarily useful but instructive.
Trump did not started any war in his last term... cant say much about the last 2 democracts that where in the White House.
If you can't see by now that there were a lot of lies on both sides (as has always been true since the dawn of politics), you need to reevaluate your information diet.
Please don't do that.

I live in a country where one of the insurrectionists wrote a famous book while in prison, then became leader on a platform that explicitly stated democrats were bad, cancelled elections when gaining power, and ended up shooting himself when the soviet army rolled in.
Here's a little zine on multiset rewriting(unordered term rewriting), John Conway said(about Fractran in The Book of Numbers) that it is such a simple paradigm of computation that no book is needed to learn it, and it can be taught in 10 seconds.

Similar situation with the Wii U. It was technically capable of natively running GameCube games, but Nintendo locked out the functionality. It can enabled with homebrew.
Bingo. The Tea Party went away. MAGA, though, is now harpooned straight into the checks and balances for a lifetime.
Actually I think it's more that Americans just have a higher cultural tolerance for risk. It takes a certain unusual kind of person to jump off a cliff and try to assemble a plane on the way down, and for some cultural reason, America generates more of those people.

To even have a shot at getting a successful startup off the ground, you need to a assemble a whole team of those people, which is still much more difficult in Europe (though things may be starting to change).
But if Trump didn't print it then somehow Biden would've worked with 1.5T?
It apparently was the thing that lost Harris the endorsement of the LA Times. That's worth a vote or two.

SO the democrats are far-right and the republicans are center-right in your book then?
But the Dems did. They did everything you're asking for. Their messaging was totally different from 2020, everything was clear and understandable.

That's what's so sad. The Democratic campaign was A+ in execution. The Republican campaign was a disaster in execution, but they won anyway.

The message of this election isn't that Democrats did something wrong. It's that they did everything right, and a majority of voters simply still don't care. They don't think the insurrection mattered, and they think Trump will fix inflation because he's a strong businessman. And they don't listen to anyone who says otherwise.

I don't see anything the Dems could have done about that. You can't force people to listen, you can't force people to understand economics. That's not something campaigns can do.
> Fine and true, but setting aside the principle of the matter, did anyone actually prefer Biden over Harris?

Probably not, but does it matter? Biden was also not chosen in anything resembling a democratic way. US political primaries are not democratic.

The general population being presented a choice between two options that were selected by two ultra-partisan entrenched entities is not democracy.

To have a system somewhat resembling democracy you would have to either (1) open primaries to everyone regardless of party registration with no control by partisan organizations over who gets nominated or supported (which would mostly defeat the point of having political parties at all) or (2) have a more proportional system where it is meaningfully possible to create new political parties that gain a nonzero share of representation.
Again, that is your claim and your opinion. That doesn't mean you are eligible to decide what other people in your democracy are supposed to vote. NO, simply no. In fact, this attitude is a reason why liberals are struggling with support of the common man. You're basically implying that these women, that didn't vote like you wanted, are too stupid to realize what they did. This is plain and outright patronisation mixed with a heavy dose of old-school sexism. Stop it, you are making a fool of yourself and your political friends.
>If physicists decide to reuse the word "meter" for a unit of measuring volume does that mean anyone that uses it as a measure of distance is wrong? Wouldn't it make more sense to create a new term for the new need, a term that doesn't collide with centuries of use?

Perfect question!

In fact, the definition of "meter" has changed over time, and if you stick with the old definition, you'd be off by 0.2 millimeters:

Science changes as it needs to. (And the word "science" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here when we are discussing economics, aka the dismal science.)
TikTok Employees Shrug Off the US Election
"Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray's case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the "wet streets cause rain" stories. Paper's full of them.

"In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know."

It happens that an IETF meeting is currently going on. Mic comment at the plenary just a few minutes ago:

"I believe we will need to reopen discussion on the IETF 127 venue."

IETF 127 is (probably soon: was) scheduled to occur November 14th-20th, 2026, in San Francisco.

(Previous US-scheduled IETF meetings during the Trump presidency were moved to Canada, particularly due to Chinese attendees' inability to get Visas.)
Social liberal policies are left.

And yeah, politics are a lot more complex than left/right so you will often see a party you'd normally consider left/right enact a policy you'd see from the other side.
You can still publish packages and pull them down as (pinned) dependencies all within a monorepo.
I don't know and don't really care. When I vote I don't rely only on evidence admissible in court. Most of the country does not follow politics as closely as some of the people here. We see what we see and vote on how that seems it will affect us.
The elite comment is so funny considering the biggest sponsor of Trump aka not elite (?) is Elon Musk the richest man ever (?!).
The failure of realize how mainstream media lied and covered for Kamala and the Democratic party in mind blowing here. Just one tiny example, "Joe Biden is in top shape" a month before he pushed out.
I want my taxes to go down, I want illegal immigration to end, and I don't give a shit about identity politics.

I didn't vote for Trump but these are the fundamental truths the democrats keep on missing. This is what Americans care about.

When you blather on about the other guy being Hitler instead of presenting real policy that people want, people are just gonna ignore you.
I mean, arent they already? Remember all the crying when he brought Twitter? (fuck I will not call it X).
> change in how "inflation" was being used largely goes back to Keynes and Modern Monetary Theory

This is totally false. It dates to the inter-War period, specifically, to describe Weimar hyperinflation. (If you just look at money supply, it was bad. If you look at prices it was the disaster that it was.)
So if Democrats want to elect a woman. Someone like Sydney Sweeney would crush it in US politics. Maybe they should try that next time.
I don't think Bernie could have won.
It's implied that his name is "Jack," assuming the poetry written from the point of view of Jack's organs were an earlier coping mechanism for the MC.
Trump printed $4T in a year, Biden printed $1.5T in 3 years. 80mph vs 10mph.

The 80mph is what got us to inflation town. If someone looks at 80mph and 10mph and says "I'll elect the 80mph guy because 10mph is irresponsible" then yeah, I'm pretty comfortable characterizing that as pure economic ignorance.
You'll need to provide credible sources for that wild claim.
Yea, inflation sucks. But it's not like Trump can fix the fact way too much money was printed during COVID crisis. The crisis should have resulted in a major economic depression, but instead we got a big party through stimulus. Now we're suffering from a hangover, and Trump can't change that.
Lucky for you Fortnite is and always has been a free game. If you were foolish enough to pay to dress up your characters well then thank you for supporting that business model so I can let my kids play for free.
Power to you if you can afford to drop money on digital clothing for a game you spend on what ever you like. But I just see it as bad a smoking. Kids are like junkies wanting to buy clothing for a game mean while them and their parents are living in rags. It’s an addiction and kids are put up against their peers or will be on the outside if they can’t get the latest skin. So stupid it went that way and any game that has kids playing it should not allow in game purchases like that.

Physicists spot quantum tornadoes twirling in a ‘supersolid’
The thing is, when you "talk down" to people, chances are pretty good those people's best interested aren't being represented by the one doing the down-talking.

However, if you "talk to" them, you are in a much better position to actually hear and respond to their concerns - with the added bonus of seeming actually human.

The way you frame it seems to imply that people are voting for him because he talks 'like them' while ignoring the 'to' them. I believe the hot leftist term for this is 'code-switching' which just means talking to your audience with language they understand and relate to -- and it's usually portrayed as a virtue, not a defect.

In reality, these people voted for Trump because as a result of him talking to them like equals rather than down to like subjugated servants left many feeling that he was in fact advocating for policies that support their best interests and would be impactful in their day to day lives.

Obviously personality matters more than it should - but in Trumps case the entire media apparatus was single-mindedly determined to make sure they dictate what his personality is, rather than his words or actions. So if anything this win shows that policy matters more than personality at this point anyway.

Now of course, if you see his policies as wrong and evil and dictatorial and the embodiment of fascism, none of that will matter and no lessons will be learned from this absolute rejection of the democrats platform.
> Trump's policies as well as America's general inability to follow rules imposed on them by government (many Americans ignored all covid rules), as well as the inability of American government to actually enforce many COVID rules, is the NUMBER ONE reason why the United States is currently dominating the world economy compared to countries that took stricter approaches to COVID.

You keep telling yourself that but those disastrous Covid policies did nothing to stop Covid. Instead it fucked kids, old people, businesses and communities all around the country. It was a massive abuse of government power.

A large part of this election is a result of those idiotic mitigations.
AWS offers Cloudfront as an alternative to Cloudflare. Serving traffic straight from your S3 bucket is wrong. S3 stands for Simple Storage Service and they really mean it - it's a low level object storage service intended for programatic usage that does exactly what you tell it without any caching or anything else, not a web hosting. Add Cloudfront and your costs will instantly lower multiple times. AWS tells you this during S3 bucket creation when you try to make it public, btw - it's not hidden.

Cloudflare networking solution doesn't nearly match - and to be fair, they're not trying - what AWS offers. Cloudflare is a small, focused service; AWS is enterprise universal do everything and stay secure&compliant while doing it solution that has the entire Cloudflare offering included and it's not even a big part of AWS. Don't conflate the two - use whatever is better for your use case, budget/margin, risk profile, reliability requirements etc, but each has some and the price is justified.
The irony of people like this misinterpreting government data as they orchestrate and cheer on a change in government.
2020 was exceptional in the amount of voting that happened by mail. I hope nothing makes that necessary again.
Case in point: I just bought Diablo 3 (released in 2012) on Switch the other day.

I'm sure D4 is more modern, but the difference from D3 is nowhere near D2->D3 for the same time span (12 years).

At the same time, accurate document extraction is becoming a commodity with powerful VLMs. Are you planning to focus on a specific industry, or how do you plan to differentiate?
Full docs rewrite is nice, but for now maybe a two-minute update to the readme to clarify these points for people coming across the project would be beneficial.
Luckily you both missed the point.

Your Google Docs files aren't as useful without the ability to collaborate with others.

Harris and Biden did not incite an insurrection. Harris and Biden did not get impeached for withholding funds from Ukraine as Trump was impeached for doing. Harris and Biden are not convicted felons. "The Harris camp seems to be guilty of many of the things they accused Trump of," is nonsense.
This is interesting.

Can you do this with emails?
The racial composition of characters in The Last of Us series is the same as it was in the game, released in 2013 before identity politics was even on the zeitgeist.
Why don't they? Isolationist USA is not ideal, but USA spending way more defending Ukraine than the combined EU is also stupid. Russia is literally knocking on their doorsteps, they should be the first to push back.
Honestly I think Trump would have labeled him "3-home Bernie"[0] or something and sunk him, similar to how he sunk Warren (w/ the Pocahontas meme). Don't get me wrong, Bernie is my favorite, but no one is immune to Trump's attacks, and there is just no way to attack him back (in a way that his supports care about).

The first time he got elected I had a woe is me, what does this mean for our country perspective. These days I'm better informed and I know that America is nothing special here. Brexit, Orban, Berlusconi, Alternative for Germany, Le Pen, Netanyahu, Modi -- feel free to throw stones, but I guarantee you have an anti-immigrant group in your country that is doing better than they ever have.
The culture of MPI does not value simplicity of implementation but rather optimizing every possible case so I would expect MPI to have an optimized implementation if two processes are on the same node.
