Fascism is thrown around by the left to describes things as fascist that are fascist and then the people who don't like being called that whine that it's a smear instead of reckoning with the criticism. Cause no one reckons with c

I don't think so? To me 'harvest' implies that the crop is destroyed afterwards.

More... money...

Man it is weird that the word for that is "harvesting".

It's a much-needed idea but... such an awkward way to do it. Only Java would be okay with an actual language feature using words like "orElseGet". And personally I suspect there's an inverse correlation between feature u

No way. You can't make a decent single web page by iframing a bunch of components together.

This book [1], which is the creator's diaries from the time annotated with lots of memoir-ish details, is really really good and talks about how the motion capture came to be at length. It's also just a very enjoyable book, not to

true. it is also pretty bad at IDing things that are half-formed, eg a bud that hasn't bloomed yet, presumably because most photos in the dataset are of the blooming version.

"reveals" -> "argues"

I feel like seek's IDs are not as good as they should be given the state of ML. Maybe a dataset problem but still.

From a cursory reading I think they're referring to the idea that an electron traveling at v < c is a superposition of an electron traveling at c and a positron traveling at c. Which also is where the zitterbewegung comes from, beca

well all of physics uses differential geometry

The fact that it's some generalization of Maxwell makes it more fun, though---should means it's testable.

This is upstream of that: geometric in the sense that it doesn't involve gluing an additional a U(1) field to spacetime at every point (from which coulomb's law etc. emerge).

Stack tracing, however, can be very costly. At least if you trace every thread. (well, when I did it it was in python on python threads, which I have to assume is a lot worse. Not sure about native threads.)

I would guess it's something corporate. They can afford to pause the UI and ship debugging traces home more than a real-time game might.

I kinda disagree? mostly I see people use roguelite to refer to roguelikes with progression and roguelike for those without. But I suppose both are also called roguelike as a gloss.

You are being intentionally obtuse. It's not the word on its own, it's the word in context: in a news article in a sentence like that one. It's not a 100% given, but it's fairly strong evidence given a basic understandin

Large scale divergence in the two human moralities: social morality (rules for people around us to protect the community, largely coded liberal) and personal morality (moral intuitions for how to keep you and your immediate family safe). Th

well it's that phrase, not just the word, although the word is a tell. And it's not absurd. It is absurd to think it's absurd. You are being ignorant.

Your inability to tell when things are AI doesn't mean other people can't. Same phenomenon happens all the time with food or wine. One person thinks everyone is making up the subtle flavor profile comments and sneers at them. Ever

I feel like forgetting to multiply by sqrt(-g) must have been a pretty easy mistake to make back then. This stuff was new!

if you say something's provably false but you don't prove or even allude to a reason why someone should believe you, um, it's not very convincing

More abstractly: maybe you want to pick your preferred app to do it with instead of being artificially prevented by the phone's maker.

Nah, I dislike the thing I was talking about. You are choosing to misunderstand me, but I have no idea why.

Sure? I don't have to like it.

You misunderstand. I'm not being cynical: it really actually does work this way. I'm describing a thing that I have seen happen from the inside. Paul Graham wrote about it here: https://www.paulgraham.com/submarine

Betting it's not him but his publisher. There is a massive industry dedicated to this sort of guerrilla marketing these days. If a company of a certain size is putting out a press release they will coordinate to have seemingly-unrelate
