Wow glad I asked, thanks for the links -- TIL about wobbulators! Definitely on my xmas shopping list for my retro electronics freak friends.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talaria_projector

>RGB color separation and processing is obtained using vertical wobbulation of the electron beam on the oil film to modulate the green channel and sawtooth modulation is added to the horizontal sweep to separate and modulate Red and Blue channels. The optical system used in the Talaria line is a Schlieren optic like an Eidophor, but the color extraction is much more complex.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wobbulator

>A wobbulator is an electronic device primarily used for the alignment of receiver or transmitter intermediate frequency strips. It is usually used in conjunction with an oscilloscope, to enable a visual representation of a receiver's passband to be seen, hence simplifying alignment; it was used to tune early consumer AM radios. The term "wobbulator" is a portmanteau of wobble and oscillator. A "wobbulator" (without capitalization) is a generic term for the swept-output RF oscillator described above, a frequency-modulated oscillator, also called a "sweep generator" by most professional electronics engineers and technicians.[1] A wobbulator was used in some old microwave signal generators to create what amounted to frequency modulation. It physically altered the size of the klystron cavity, therefore changing the frequency.

Anecdote: This became a problem for me with several apps after installing Sequoia
I’ve always concurred with the Helland/Kleppman observation mentioned viz. that the transaction log of a typical RDBMS is the canonical form and all the rows & tables merely projections.

It’s curious that over those projections, we then build event stores for CQRS/ES systems, ledgers etc, with their own projections mediated by application code.

But look underneath too. The journaled filesystem on which the database resides also has a log representation, and under that, a modern SSD is using an adaptive log structure to balance block writes.

It’s been a long time since we wrote an application event stream linearly straight to media, and although I appreciate the separate concerns that each of these layers addresses, I’d probably struggle to justify them all from first principles to even a slightly more Socratic version of myself.
Optimistically, if all you want to do is prove you are, in fact, a person, and not prove that you are a specific person, there's no real reason to need to lose privacy. A service could vouch that you are a real person, verified on their end, and provide no context to the site owner as to what person you are.

It's actually becoming easier as they make it a real programming language.

The infamous template error messages are generally a result of two things: first, too many candidate functions because logic is cobbled together out of a nest of SFINAE overloads, which is ameliorated by moving the logic into normal code with if constexpr, etc; and second, type errors occurring deep in the call/expansion stack because unchecked values keep getting passed on just like in a dynamically typed language (which TMP basically is), which is ameliorated by moving the type checks higher up in the stack with concepts or static_assert.

That was my dream too when I retired from computer programming 10 years ago. I got bored. I was good at programming and now no longer have anything challenging or interesting in my life. Really programming was the only thing I was good at. So now most of my day is either doing something I'm not really good at, or challenged by, or procrastinating to avoid doing something I'm not really good at or interested in. I haven't given up yet.
What important bits are those? I can't imagine what you have in mind here; my current job and my previous job have both revolved around MLIR-based compilers, and it has never seemed to me that there is anything missing. I wonder if you might be expecting MLIR to do a job it's not really meant for.

In general, people with ADHD do not conform to society's expectations of how a human brain should work. That means they're more likely to be marginalized & targeted, and likely have fewer resources at their disposal if they are at risk; so they are both more likely to become a homicide target and have less protection if they do. They're also more likely to engage in risk taking behaviour, much of which could increase one's risk of being a victim of a homicide.
This is software telling you what you are allowed to do based on what the software developer wants* (assuming the developers cares of course...). Which is how all software works. I would not want my users of my software doing anything malicious with it, so I would not give them the option.

It is sad that this is happening to PhysicsForums. It was one of first websites I was using frequently 15 years ago when I started my physics passion (later career). I was active reader and contributed on few occasions but I still remember some members who I thought that one day I will be smart and knowledgeable like them. With years and the move to social media following Arab spring things started to change (as part of the overall transition from forum being the dominant place for discussions). But I stopped visiting it around 2018 unless I came through google search (later kagi). I still find the archive useful to answer some questions and I would disagree with author of article that because no one is sharing links on twitter that means no one care.

I play a lot of this game called Dota 2. People don’t really approach it like they do chess but I find a lot of parallels - many of these I imagine were intentionally designed into the game. Concepts such as fragility betweenness centrality introduced in this article really resonate with how the game can be played optimally.

Currently I’ve been playing as a hero called Spectre which has the ability to globally teleport onto any hostile unit. This allows the “piece” to be on the shortest path any visible node. Moreover, a key move is bursting “fragile” supports obtain a man advantage to snowball fights. Not always the optimal move since Dota is a very complex game but it’s cool to see the parallels and I wish more people approached the game from a chess perspective.

An off the wall solution might be to bridge Discord to Matrix with https://docs.mau.fi/bridges/go/discord/index.html and then use a Matrix client, but no idea how well the bridge supports AFK detection as I haven't used the Discord one. Generally the other bridges to Matrix I have used support status and presence pretty seamlessly, though. Don't think any of the bridges support voice chat, however, so depends on what you use Discord for.

Also perhaps try Discord in the browser instead of the desktop app?

I think that although there are rational tradeoffs in bringing in too many dependencies, a lot of these arguments are just rationalizing a personal preference and a tendency of engineers to want to build more and more.

It's not just generated content. This problem has been around for years. For example, google a recipe. I don't think the incentives are there yet. At least not until Google search is so unusable that no one is buying their ads anymore. I suspect any business model rooted in advertising is doomed to the eventual enshitification of the product.
> You deserve to see them as they were intended to be seen.

I've never bought that argument, and I grew up playing games on CRT's.

The reality is that different CRT's had wildly different characteristics in terms of sharpness, color, and other artifacts -- and it also varied tremendously depending on the type of video output/input. Were you hooked up to a TV? A cheap monitor? An expensive monitor?

About the only thing you can say for sure is that CRT's were blurrier. And the comparison image you provide is completely misleading because the brightnesses are totally different, which suggests that the LCD/LED version isn't using correct gamma. If you used a random CRT her skin tone also had a good chance of turning greenish or whatever because that's just what CRT's did -- the color artifacts could be atrocious.

I definitely appreciate wanting to blur the image in an emulator to remove the jaggies, and the retro CRT effects are a cool novelty. But I just don't buy the argument that it's "how the games were intended to be seen", because there was just way too much variation and the screen quality was so low. It's like only listening to music from the 90's on cheap speakers over the roar of the road because it's how the music was "intended to be heard". No it wasn't. It's just the best you had at the time.

Early PenTile displays often had a different arrangement: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PenTile_matrix_family#/media/F...

You can see that it's Blue, Green, Red, Green on the horizontal/vertical axis so each red sub pixel is separated by two green and one blue sub pixels.

Modern PenTile displays usually use a triangular layout: https://static1.xdaimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/w...

I'm not an expert at text rendering, but it seems like you'd be able to get an RGB sub pixel combination a lot closer together with this triangular layout than the linear one.

But also, the Droid 4 was simply lower resolution. Apple moved to 330 pixels per inch in 2010 and the Droid 4 was 275 PPI in 2012. So the Droid 4 was poor resolution even for its time and the PenTile layout would make it even worse by removing a third of the sub pixels.

Today, the Galaxy S25 has 416 PPI and the iPhone 16 460 PPI so it is dramatically more pixels.

Pixel density would have the largest impact, but I think that the triangular layout that modern displays use probably also helps. You talk about the screen door effect and I feel like the triangular layout wouldn't have as much of that issue (but I'm not an expert on sub pixel rendering).

I am somewhat skeptical of the car crash research. Being "involved" in a car accident does not paint a clear enough picture. I think it would be more interesting to see that data on whether people with ADHD are more likely to be found at fault in car accidents.

With cellphones and other distractions now, I feel like the data would be even harder to parse through. Is a person with ADHD more likely than the average person to text while driving? I do not think that would be an incorrect assumption, but I would like to see data suggesting this.
