I wouldn't say I'm the most knowledgeable in this regard but as far as I know it's not super common. Buddhism in Thailand is strongly tied to making merit[1] which is more or less doing good deeds. And generally, this is seen

There are pretty strong overlaps in certain areas, but that isn't the case though. Autism is caused by physical neurological changes that have to do with brain development before or near birth and while meditation (to my knowledge at l

I'm not sure where your experience is from, but Buddhism is an integral part of Thai life and culture and I've seen this play out on a pragmatic level in many ways.

I’m an autistic person and it sounds like in some way this person achieved exactly the point of certain forms of meditation like this which is to open up awareness. And I think as many autistic folks will tell you, being very aware is extre

Which is true, but they're much less prominent overall. Mobile Safari is quirky to say the least and is truly the IE of the present day.

I work at Grafana Labs, and this isn't an official statement by any means, just my personal perspective, but we pretty much need some type of tracking to hold us accountable and get a general idea of how widely Grafana is deployed. You

So apparently we're still discussing this and you can find variations on this article stretching back a long time https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu... Like everything engineering

Thanks for sharing this and I've been certainly thinking along the same lines. To add to this, I've known many folks that can accomplish certain tasks almost automatically and creatively. If you asked them to recall exactly what t

It's in a strange spot because practically every other single engine jet aircraft is military, and I imagine it's tricky to drop a bigger engine in the vision jet without sacrificing cabin/cargo space. I liked the other comme

I can't help but feel like article kind of beats around the bush with the answer, i.e. that there are tradeoffs between artistic freedom and streaming performance/compression. I'm guessing Netflix did their best to find camer

I'm autistic and it definitely doesn't cause a lack of self-awareness. If anything I'm more aware than most neurotypical folks. I can't speak for every autistic person, but at least in my experience when people do point

It's hard to say, but sanctions violations are often heavily penalized. I don't think I go as far as saying it's simply CYA, but it is playing it on the safe side. Banning a few developer accounts is way less costly then the

I believe the Hubble shot is more in the visible spectrum whereas the JWST images are in infrared so there are structures in each shot that don't necessarily show up in the analogous image.

I've had this same experience as well! Wrapping your head around the concepts at first can be a little tedious but it makes application logic and behavior far more predictable. The ability to visualize them is the icing on the cake as

This has generally been the case with Nintendo relative to Sony/Microsoft. Nintendo console are typically cheaper and geared towards a more general audience. But it may not end up that way, the switch has been out for longer than the P

In my experience it tends not to be done because there's an inevitable drift between the system as it actually operates and the relevant visualizations and diagrams. I have seen them used as a starting off point at times, although that

Hey there! I work at Grafana on many of the dashboard components. Beyond dashboards as code and alerts where are you feeling the pain? I can say that a lot of effort is going into improving dashboards in a number of different dimensions and

It’s illegal because it’s common for criminals to use other parties to make their money clean. This allows governments to go after those that assist in committing crimes that otherwise would have not be considered to be breaking the law. It

Hey Ian, thanks for all the very thoughtful content over the years. I started reading Anandtech shortly before Anand left and I remember being worried. However, in hindsight there was clearly nothing to worry about. Your analysis helped con

Normally I would agree, and there's been talk of it for an extended period of time. However to my knowledge it's already been approved https://thethaiger.com/hot-news/visa/10-year-visa-gets-appro... I ca

And as far as I know will not be true at all soon. The new digital nomad visa being introduced (along with a few others) appears it's also going to allow ownership of up to 1 rai of land for residential purposes.

At least in Thailand visa runs are commonplace for a whole host of different folks. Some people I knew got into a little trouble, however by and large it wasn't frequent. That being said, in Thailand there would be no need to for retir

That's true, although I do miss the memory! And realistically, when it comes to heavy compute or multi-tasking the 3900X really shows its power. I'm honestly very interested to see AMD tech at 5nm. I think the next few years are g

It would be an interesting comparison. Non-apple silicon has definitely not been great and lags behind significantly. Would be very interesting to see what Android would be like on more modern CPU tech.

Oh very cool! I had no idea about this. I'm traveling for awhile but I'll definitely check that out once I'm back and working with my desktop machine again!

This certainly makes a lot of sense, and it's a brilliant strategy to improve overall performance. But it doesn't account for the full picture either. My M1 Macbook Pro feels about as responsive as my desktop system with an AMD Ry

I'm going to take a guess that you've not lived under an actual regime of censorship. This is not it, and quite honestly basically all speech which threatens others is restricted. There are always limits, and just because other cr

Thanks for the story. I got to hear a lot about Tony through a colleague of his from the LinkExchange days and was able to meet him briefly once. Sounded like and seemed to be a very singular human being. Makes me think about how much he sh

I believe that remains to be seen. I'm not sure if they were able to effectively take advantage of the new process right away, perhaps not. It looks impressive, but it's hard to say until we have some kind of more direct compariso
