What you are describing is anecdotal and the same problem we have with Facebook - social group isolation. You have a large number of Catholic schools in your area because you have a large number of Catholics in your area. They are operating

So… you’re saying it’s a sensationalized headline because 95% could cover it “somehow”? I think the missed point here is that while 65% have savings, there are 35% on the brink of financial disaster. I guess having to ask your family to hel

I don’t understand any of these comments. Discover has two meanings. Unexpected or within the course of a search. We discover oil and mineral deposits all the time. We don’t usually say “You discovered more lithium? Big deal. Been done befo

Well, yes. I didn’t cite the specific silly things from the movie I was referring to. But the one from the trailers that always made me groan was the synchronized sitting down in and buckling themselves in for the car chase. Just tins of cr

Ready Player One movie was terrible. The book was fun. Felt more genuine and didn’t have silly stuff like the movie AR/VR does run the high risk of creating a super dystopian and fragmented real world. It’s definitely something to watc

Your comment made me read the article and I find the article’s language sufficiently abstract by say things like “many NoSQL databases”, etc Perhaps your comment was meant to say that in general talking about tradeoffs can fall into that tr

“the issue is that they eventually die and rot, and then that carbon gets released right back into the atmosphere” You make it sound like a rapid process. Univ of Arizona did a study that showed CO2 emissions of dead trees was lower than li

“In fact, go back 15 years and no one had any tests whatsoever. The world didn't end.” That’s just silly. Of course there were tests 15 years ago. Unit testing has been around since the 1950s Very little would cause the world to end. B

Your question made me read the article. And it does seem to be lacking enough sample data. At one point she had 550 samples and that was called “substantial” in the article. Towards the end it had grown to 1000 samples. To your point the st

You are selectively picking one example from the parent post and making a rather personal attack. There’s no need for that. Stick to your argument and don’t make it personal.

I completely agree. I recently decided to try learning Vulkan. I built an sdl window framework and got an OpenGL triangle in maybe 6 lines of OpenGL code. For vulkan you literally cannot draw anything until your reimplement an entire render

I’ve looked up a lot of tech on Google trends. Something strange happened late 2020 across many tech topics. Searches are down across the board. I can only speculate that people working from home just stopped working as much and therefore s

Yes. But. For an iDE you write your own code. For a visual tool like this, I wonder if the “code” is already written and it just spits out code snippets it contains. So the code would all be GPL?

I’m not advocating for Roblox because it’s quite terrible. But. They did make it stupidly simple to make stupid 3D games. If you like getting eaten and slowly have poop stuck to you while falling through the digestive system until you are p

I find conversations like this difficult. I don’t think anyone here will change your mind. If your position is that intelligence must rival a humans to be worthy of “being intelligent”, you are free to do so. I think the bar is much lower,

I don’t see the problem. North Face doesn’t want their logo and name smack dab next to oil and gas logos and names. I don’t think anyone is foolish enough to think their plastic and rubber clothing is made of something else. Nor do I think

You mean the ring that was held in the basement of a pizza parlor with no basement? I’m not sure what your point is here. Obviously there are pedophile rings in the world. But why are people making up weird lies? Not saying you made up the

Fun fact. This is not a new concept. Doom used overrides with their WAD file format. Mod authors could release their mod files replacing or adding content without stealing the game level files. There may be prior art to that, but as a young

Sweet. I made an engine to learn OpenGL 2.0 and vertex shaders way back when, but moved on to other things in life. A couple of weeks ago I was curious what’s changed with the latest pipeline techniques. This feels like it will be a great w

I see. So you are expanding the scope from Epic complaining about fees to _everything_. You make good arguments. Just to play devils advocate, PlayStation and XBox are also closed platforms and I think they take a cut. Amazon Fire devices t

Yes. But California isn’t Europe. There’s a million factors that led to California, or America as a whole, sprawl. Probably, primarily, land is plentiful and cheap. When it is no longer possible to get cheap land then density will naturally

I disagree. And I’m thinking of California in particular here. There is FAR too much reliance on personal transportation. It has little capacity to support “just increasing density”. There’s nothing natural about it. It will take a very ser

I’m not sure what your point is. Case details are fuzzy right now, but wasn’t Microsoft accused of anti competition practices. Things like blocking browsers or apps that competed with their apps. They had a solid lock on the desktop operati
