To me it looked like a ton (two seconds or so) of latency, not pre-recorded video. And I would expect latency for such heavy DSP work on a phone.

No, battery/fuel cell hybrids. No additional complexity, just additional weight.

And then you can use the package Microtype and then the LaTeX output turns into pure buttery smooth readability.

Interesting. What exactly is each 'widget' when you say there are 100+ widgets? Each overall feature, or each Item within the feature? In my photo editor I have a histogram of how many photos you've taken each day: http:

How exactly is QML and Qt5 slower? It's quick to start and UI actions are immediate and smooth. Forgive me for not knowing, since I've never used Qt Widgets before. I'm writing a desktop app with QML and it's fast and sm

Bowed instruments get around the attack/sustain tradeoff by having continuous energy input, so the attack strength can be sustained for the duration of a note. My cello is particularly resonant, and in hindsight (is this confirmation b

Energy conservation doesn't come into play, because unlike on a plucked instrument, the bow is there continually supplying vibration. If more of it gets emitted, then more of the bow's energy goes into vibration instead of frictio

I don't think it's entirely wrong, at least for violin-family instruments. If I put my hand near the f-holes on my cello while I play, I can feel a shocking amount of airflow in and out of the body. The sound emitted by the holes

It works surprisingly well, but it has a very limited vertical extent (based on how wide your phone camera is) and that limits the scenes it is suited for.

I just set up the first spreadsheet shown in the post, and having that magic number of net daily recurring income is very...elucidating. I feel like I suddenly have a much better grasp of actually how much money I make.

Clearly you are using an inferior low-flush toilet. I have a 1.2 gallon model (American Standard Champion 4) that has never once failed to work in a single flush, and a _lot_ of toilets fail me. Including the monstrously high-volume ones th

The trouble is the ecosystem of packages that people would have to redo. If you replaced TeX, LaTeX itself would need replacing, as would every single LaTeX package and class that you ever want to use, ones like microtype and stuff, would h

Early low-flow toilets were really poor. Modern ones clog less than ever. I have a 1.2 gallon-per-flush toilet now (Champion 4) and it's never once clogged even under trying conditions. It's just a design problem to work around. (

I don't know if the right answer is to be generally more open to changing your mind. There are far too many things to be worried about: the danger of AI, religion, the environment, other political views, the results of scientific paper

First of all, when you call it alarmist that's inherently reinforcing your bias that the concern for the climate is exaggerated. I find it difficult to believe that you could be evaluating them objectively with that sort of mindset. Re

Why do you regard this as "evidence that the alarmists have very little material left"? Are you suggesting that this was a "last resort" after "running out" of research in favor of the anthropogenic climate cha
